Come on, some company has to make a good line for this. I grew up on this show and all the figs I see are junk! Can some company like NECA or some company like DC Unlimited or McFarlane who make good figs for cheap get this line???

LTS - yeah but most of them are crap, I mean like updated good quality stuff...McFarlane or NECA should do a line for DBZ

randys - I saw those but thats not exactly what I meant, more like the gears or wow action figures. good poseable and cheap, not like $150+ a fig...plus I didnt care for those too much =\

Well you might as well drop that kind of hope cause it'll never happen, NEVER. Bandai now holds the license, and probably will for a long time.

Just go by the Hybrid figures.

I play Bandai's dragonball card game too xD I have seen bandai make some good stuff as well, like their combo Offshoot!! In Action line for Code Geass in japan was pretty good...

DBZ would be to expensive for either NECA or McFarlane to obtain plus I'm sure Bandai would go down fighting. ;D

No. Bad gammerx bad. NECA shouldn't touch DBZ and **** them up more then they did Resident Evil. McFarlane won't touch em either, although that would be nice.

Hybrid figures are the way to go. I don't have any cause I don't have the cash. But I will eventually. And I have all the old ones from Jakks Pacific, those were pretty good, and most of their skulpts were nice as well. The SS3 Goku actually won an award for best skulpt of some kind.

I have that big Trunks. Those were good but expensive. And I have all those Gokus too lol. Bought them when I first started collecting. Jakks did better.

some of those vinyl and banpresto pvc looked cool...but NECA seems to do good very detailed stuff so thats why I thought them and yeah bandai would never give DBZ up...now to find some hybrid ones >.>

NECA sucks. We'd get a Goku statue that doesn't move and looks like a real human with 50 accessories he never had in the show and can't hold. 0_o

I like the older figures, especially the ones I have. I'm just sad they didn't make more, and that the GT figures sucked when they were made, and that they were a different scale. But the Z figures were cool as hell.

I love every figure up there, and always have since I bought them. I think I got all of what I own up there too, but i may have missed a couple. And that is the SS3 Goku that was virtually impossible to find and won an award that year.

GT is not as impresive, that's why I only have these.

I'm not so sure about that. Look at the Neca TMNT figures. They almost look like their comic counterparts and are HIGHLY articulated.

decent, but Jakks has made some pretty good figs. As I got older, I lost interest in the old unarticulated bandai ones

One in a million. Look at their RE figures, and their AVP stuff. Who wants a predator and alien figure that can't fight each other and look like they're taking a dump while wackin off? And their RE stuff is just, I can't even get started on that. I hate NECA. I won't buy the Turtles, I'll take the Playmates movie figures over them any day, and I'm still 50/50 on the *possible* Ryu Hayabusa they're supposed to come out with. And the only reason I'd buy it is if it was as articulated as they showed for the concept and no one else makes another one. And I'll still debate if I find it in store. Overpriced, overated statues.

Almost all of thoseare Jakks. Banai's weren't so hot. But Jakks did a great job. BTW 2 of those Trunks are custom. 1 of them turned out kinda bad. The other turned out great. You should be able to tell which is which.

He looks like he ****ed all over himself. If you look at them in package, you can tell they're not articulated. And all of the Preds I've seen look like they're jackin off. I don't like NECA. Never will. And I won't buy anything they make (cept for maybe Ryu, since I have no choice). They look nice, but if I wanted statues I'd shill out $100 for a good one. I want my action figures to actually have action abilities and poses.

You can get a few good looking poses out of the preds. Not as many as the aliens, but still good.


I only want those new ones on that site for the face huggers & chest bursters, though.

Hey if it's what you like don't let me deterr you. I just know NECA isn't my cup of tea, and imo they ****ed up alot of potentially better figures.
