Thats the thing though. Jynx had to have its colour officially changed to purple when people did complain about it.

It may be that funko would have to take creative risks in creating it. So it would either be - satisfy the fans, and get the backlash of racism - or play it safe and upset the fans.

Or don't take the risk at all & not create it - which is the most likely scenario, unfortunately.

I dont think it will ever even be a consideration....my post was just a joke regarding the characters that would be made.

Yeah, I get you. Though it seems the demand for him in Pop! form is there, which is frustrating.

I saw too the GS list with the super saiyan.. Maybe it's a saiyan for dragon ball SUPER..?

But seriously i don't know.. There's no ssj in DB.. Too many in DBZ but there's no z..

I'm laying here staring at my dbz collection ... 2 thoughts

1- I really need PA Vegeta
2- I officially decided lootcrate Goku is my favorite pop

It will either be SS Vegeta...which is long overdue. Or SS2 Gohan. IF they make a SS Goten or SS Trunks (kid version) before SS2 Gohan or SS Vegeta, then there's something wrong there.

Many people are completionists and that being rhe hardest DBZ POP to obtain means that it's the one that will elude most completionists for the longest. It's also (at least to me) an intersting part of the shows history.

Do you guys know if that new "Super Saiyan" pop available for preorder at Gamestop is an exclusive?

If I had to guess, I'd say its a convention exclusive since, last I saw, it was listed at $15. I could be wrong though.

Couple things that I have heard...one is that it is a Gamestop MANAGER'S Convention Exclusive, and ONLY manager's that are attending can buy that piece (along with the other 3 or 4 pieces that are shown for pre-order). Two is that it's not even showing up in the system at some stores. SKU is 128548 if anyone wants to try. I haven't had time to go to my local Gamestop and see about pre-ordering, so I don't know if it is in the system there. Also, not related to DBZ, but if anyone wants KILLING JOKE JOKER, SKU is 128542 and is available for pre-order. But again, that's part of the "manager's convention" thing so it may not be available.

This is right on the money. I think there's a good amount of completionist collectors out there (like myself) that want it mainly to finish off the collection. On top of that it's a cool looking pop.

I got all the ones I wanted from both waves. I did preorder the dbz resurrection vegeta from gamestop.

Postby **beckysaurus** » Mon Aug 01, 2016 11:59 am

I'm still bummed I actively decided to not buy the Lootcrate with metallic SS Goku in it. we have the whole set except for that one now. I'm hoping he goes on a warehouse sale like they do every 5-6 months or so and sell the individual pieces. Looks like not a lot of people ordered that crate; I can imagine they must have a lot left over.

What is everybody's fav mold from the new series? Trunks is my heavy favorite. I wish Kid Goku with nimbus was smaller in scale. It just doesn't look proportional next to the others.

Postby **Sn0wKing1** » Mon Aug 01, 2016 12:13 pm

I would Love to see an action pose SS2 teen goku with the damaged arm charging the one handed kamehameha...... So iconic that I doubt it'll ever happen. Plus probably way too much detail.

LOL I'm still stuck at PA Vegeta and red eyes Frieza. Damn. Red eyes Frieza is obtainable, but I've basically given up hope of ever getting the PA Vegeta. #-o

Postby **poppetmaster** » Mon Aug 01, 2016 12:51 pm

I had 2 PA Vegeta at one point. Sold one to a member here when the price was around 350. Regretted it right after, but I know hes happy with it so thats all that counts! Im just glad I got him before the price blew up.

Here comes chocolate Buu! Always wanted a figure of this.

Must have it...never heard of West Coast Toys (and Google search comes up with a Canadian site for babies) but I will probably just order from PC. Now they need Evil Buu to go with Chocolate Buu.

Looks like the picture got yanked..."leaked" huh?

Yeah man, after Walgreens, 7-11 and Khols, I'm sure Funko's all like "You know who should get an exclusive next? Some Canadian baby site!" lol

Looks like Chocolate Buu is up on Popcultcha. Still not sure how badly I want this one. Just got through with SDCC spending and still have at least one upcoming Vegeta I'll be gunning for and the Dark Knight Returns set is just around the corner...

I've read in a few places that there's a connection between Ikon Collectibles and Popcultcha. I hadn't heard of either company before today, as I'm based in the US. This Chocolate Buu figure says "US Exclusive" on the Ikon website, but these two AU sites are the only places I've heard mention of it. Should someone like me, based in LA, consider or go through with buying this figure right away from Australia, or will it almost certainly be available in the US soon?

Postby **Sjhova1** » Tue Aug 02, 2016 3:51 am

I need DBZ wave 3, some exclusives for NYCC as well

Ikon is the POP distributor in Australia. PopCultcha is just a retailer. Doesn't matter if you are based in the US or not, a lot of people buy from PC. It will be a "West Coast Toys" exclusive here in the US. Outside of the US, it's not an exclusive. Will it "certainly be available" in the US....sure. How soon, or how easy will it be to obtain? Who knows.

Postby **perfectflaw00** » Tue Aug 02, 2016 3:00 pm

So apparently the chocolate buu is going to be at dragon con limited to 2000 but the regular one is available on popcultcha now. Saw this over at the funko pop reddit.

Postby **emk194** » Tue Aug 02, 2016 3:14 pm

Placed my order via a different account because I'm not waiting around for PC to figure their ____ out. Need that Buu!

Postby **eastWOLF** » Tue Aug 02, 2016 3:39 pm

Chocolate Buu will be exclusive to DragonCon aka partycon lol

(and I'm envious to anyone who goes!) So I placed an order on PC for $30 sheesh

This might just be my local HTs, but are you guys finding the SSGSS Goku Pops easily or is it becoming a pain to get?

I already have one thanks to another member here, but I've yet to actually see them in stores. Had to call and ask my local HT to put one on hold for me today, otherwise I don't stand a chance of getting it.
