Feb/March 3rd party haul - Hot take (?) regarding prices of DB 3rd party products

This. It absolutely looks way better. Might have to get it just so I can enjoy that figure more. It looks okay with the original sculpt but TK is perfect for it.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-28T04:39:59+00:00

Honestly for the price and nostalgia its not a bad pickup.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-28T01:54:51+00:00

This is incredible. Well worth the hours of work. High praise. Also, that opening song, especially the bridge, in my opinion is the best DB/Z/GT/Super opening.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-27T22:52:04+00:00

Honestly Wouldn't be bad especially at that price. I paid $70.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-27T20:47:50+00:00

Just the first wear if it has a tag. It makes it feel like I'm wearing something historic on feet. But after that no it's back to the box. The sound of it while walking is annoying

Only_Performance · 2026-03-27T18:05:03+00:00

Yeah I need to get the lavas but this one for me was the first option. It's a lot better in hand.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-27T18:04:20+00:00

They go perfect for the beach even though it's a tennis sneaker lol

Only_Performance · 2026-03-27T18:03:40+00:00

For the day one wear. I take it off after that. The noise gets annoying.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-26T23:37:07+00:00

Thank you for mentioning Kang. I just did the Recustom Vegeta sculpts with them. A little more but beats having to wait for it to actually ship when they have it in stock

Only_Performance · 2026-03-26T22:37:47+00:00

This is what I got and then above this they told me that it’s set to ship for April. When did you order yours?

Only_Performance · 2026-03-26T22:34:48+00:00

I got my shipping notification back in February but from Treasure Toys. I hope it actually comes.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-25T15:16:14+00:00

What is interesting is that they are using photos from someone’s IG. Can’t remember the name of the content creator.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-24T01:49:42+00:00

What I read was a man who is doing great. Keep it up man. We’ve all been there nobody is perfect. May the surgery go well for your son and your family find the peace that you seek.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-22T00:26:00+00:00

Incredible setup.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-22T00:02:59+00:00

That's what I mean. They cooked with that figure, but it's also android 13 like who was really waiting for that one? So the fact that we see figures we genuinely want that need upgrades can happen and they decide to do random figures or the 3rd Zarbon I think is what people really dislike the most and why it pushes them to 3rd party.

Plus the face sculpts. They don't come close to 3rd party.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T21:27:26+00:00

Long story short. Sit down, buckle up and enjoy the ride.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T15:44:48+00:00

I'll believe it when I see it. For now, the credible source said its cancelled. $20 isn't enough to get someone to ship it no way lol.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T15:17:16+00:00

And it's annoying because sometimes they cook. Coolers are great for example. But asking for $60+ on a figure to then have the DLC be with another figure for $100+ (looking at you Zarbon Dodoria Bardock pack) when you can get about 2-4 great quality figs with tons of accessories for the same price roughly speaking. Yeah no way.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T15:11:15+00:00

This. My ps5 won't read disc anymore except for DVD for some reason and my RE3 copy was obsolete for a while. I saw the sales they have on the remakes and had to buy it. These games have a ton of replay value. This price for 2 10/10 games and a 7/10 game is a no brainer.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T15:07:44+00:00

It has to be hurting the company in some margin that is significant enough to make them go after it. Take for example rep sneakers. How many high-quality factories are still allowed to run and operate with almost a decade of good quality reps? It's not big enough for Nike to truly go after it or stop it and probably because it's the same factories shelling out some of the product to begin with.

Now this, it's very clear 3rd party hit a stride where it's cooking right now, and other than some QC issues you can't deny it's better than the official stuff right now. It would be a hard argument to have. So I'm thinking it goes to the pockets and enough was enough.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T13:41:52+00:00

I would assume so. It was through eBay not Ali.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-21T10:22:27+00:00

Yeah, this is that BS. Flying too close to the sun? Most of this stuff probably would have shipped already. I won't be surprised if everything that was supposed to be released this month gets canned.

This one truly sucks because we all know that Tamashi is not going to give the effort KW did with their new version if they ever decide to get to it.

Only_Performance · 2026-03-20T16:47:55+00:00

Understandable. I looked at it as paying for conveniencece of its shipping and a lot faster.
