Daaang! $78! I don't care how relevant this pink puffball is, that's too expensive for me to want it!

$78 and they didn't even have the good graces to include a small antenna beam for the chocolate transformation. Tamashii Nations needs to stop cheaping out on energy effects.

pretty cool...but pricey

For real.

Figuarts lost my business a while ago.

Anybody remember when DBZ Figuarts used to be jam packed with accessories (including effect pieces) AND a figure stand??

All for 35 bucks.

Now they sell (with the exception of Buu) nearly identical amounts of figure, and little to no accessories for at least double the price.

If it was the bad version of Buu I would be all over this!

I'm waiting for the release date of the Figure-Rise Standard model kit of this Majin Buu which was shown way back in May 2016 at the Shizuoka Hobby Show.
It looks good enough imo and will be a lot cheaper. I keep my fingers crossed for it's release. The sale shouldn't be too much of an issue with Buu. I already have the kid Buu Figure-Rise displayed with figuarts and he looks great. I have also sold and replaced figuarts Prefect Cell with the Figure-Rise because he is taller.

Honestly, this is a very solid figure. Paint shading looks amazing, sculpt is spot on. The only thing is the price. Hopefully this thing is in scale as well, as figuarts does have a track record of making things not measure up with the other characters.

In my opinion, figure rise is overtaking figuarts. The sculpt is better with most figure rise figures over figuarts, the scale is better, the characters that are supposed to be bulky ARE bulky, and the price is very fair.

Not in the same class at all, but I've been really liking the $20 Bandai ones. (And an old Jaxx Super Buu)

Can't wait..... bring on the other forms

BEEVEE · 02-22-2018, 07:59 PM

He looks awesome! Best Majin Buu out there currently. Price doesn't bother me. Been collecting this line since it started, I won't stop now.

Scale wise, he's pretty big. Similar to Nappa's height.

Can't wait for pre-orders to go up

No Dabura cookie? Why even bother?

I have collected this line since the beginning. Besides a couple of releases, I never considered DBZ Figuarts to be jam packed. That being said, I do agree that the releases have been too pricey over the last couple of years

If you guys remember, 16 was about 70 or something. I just figure buu is like that. I'm gonna get him either way

BWfan86 · 03-01-2018, 01:19 AM

Agreed - I think size is definitely playing a role for this release, but there way no reason for Tien and Yamcha to cost ~$60 each.
