I liked it. :shrug:

Also hyped for new figures yeeeeeahhh





New base form Goku with manga colors, armorless base form Vegeta and manga-accurate Piccolo!

And first form Cell!



Gonna get all of these. Those smirking faces for Goku and Piccolo are awesome. Plus, the colors are awesome. I’m such a mark for these. :swoon:

Does the movie take place in the manga continuity? I wonder how they'll work around #1 and #2 fusing now that all fusions have been nerfed

Are these multiple Vegetas and Gokus or are the fingers pose-able? I never bought DB figures before but if there's that many points of articulation, I might have to bite.

Hm. The 3D looks better than I expected, it's not awful, tolerable even. But it's super loving disappointing after how beautiful DBS: Broly was.

They’re highly articulated, but the hands are just swappable. You always get a set of fists, “blast” hands, “martial arts” hands and occasionally a more specialized hand or two. Like Piccolo’s Makankosappo hand, Goku’s Instant Movement hand, etc. etc. They also always come with at least 2-3 face swaps or in Piccolo’s case, additional heads.
Sometimes they also have swappable arms for crossed arm poses or in Piccolo’s case, a ripped off arm option.

They are fantastic figures, but can be pricy. Anywhere from $35-80.

I mean the movie seems to be very out of sync with the current timeline so it could be like old movies and not actually fit anywhere

It likely doesn't. It's meant to happen in the same year but the character designs we have are totally different (Pan has longer hair, Goku's still wearing the orange-and-blue, Bulma is significantly younger). I imagine it'll just ignore the epilogue because, once again, Toriyama Forgot and just threw a random time for the movie without thinking if something happened during that particular time.

You're probably right, but also, Vegeta's weirdly absent, which makes me wonder if he isn't being shown specifically to attempt not to contradict the current manga arc. After all, if this does take the manga into account (unlikely but not impossible since Toriyama is involved in both) then Vegeta would have Ultra Ego at this time, which has never been animated or even shown in games due to how new it is.

it's entirely likely that it's not at the exact same time as the 28th wt so pan doesn't have to have her hair at that length or w/e.

Merging?! In Dragonball? I think you're confused. We fuse people in Dragonball.

No, see, they'll "merge" instead of "fuse," that way, Vegeta can't use Fission to split them up (because Fission only works on Fusions)!

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

Yeah this is my bet too. He will appear at the beginning, be absent for 90% of the plot, and then when the robots fuse and are kicking Goku/Vegeta/Piccolo's rear end he will triumphantly appear to stall for time for Goku to come back and win the battle. Potentially getting his rear end kicked in the process.

I don’t know from the way it’s presented this movie feels tonally like Yo son Goku and friends return.

We haven’t got much yet so I can easily be wrong but it feels like that kind of movie with pan taking Goten and trunks place
