    Has anyone seen these before?

    http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/menu.aspx?menu=92&company=11&category=3649

    My store (KB Toys) just got in a case of them:

    2x SSJ Vegeta
    2x SSJ Goku
    2x SSJ Gogeta
    1x SSJ Vegito
    1x Vegito

    I picked up one of each figure and I love them! Their shirts "come off" so to speak (so SSJ Vegita, in his saiyjan armor, it comes off), they have different hands (closed fist and open hand) and their posability is almost on par with some of the Microman figures from Takara. Jaks Pacific makes 'em, Bandai distributes.

    $5.98

    Check your local KB Toys! I love these guys. I'll have pics up after Christmas.

    These figures are great.They don't have the fragile feel the other figures posted on here have.

    Wow only $5.98?? DBZ figs around here are nearly twice that TRU and have half the poseability as those!! I got ripped off. Too bad there are no KB Toys around here anymore. :eek:

    Time to go to KB.

    TRU had them for quite awhile, but never more than 1 or 2 on the shelf at a time.

    $5.98 (Super Value) means these figures were purchased at some other store's/warehouse's clearance/liquidation of the product. But looks like they get Series 5, minus Freiza and Piccolo.

    They also got the "2" Mini Packs" that come with a mystery figure, FYI.

    Yeah, they had them at a Meijer's and a Ohio TrU for about a year now. Also, they have bundles of them here in Akihabara, Japan.

    They have been (well were) at TRU Canada for about a year now for about $9.99 CDN. I wanted to pick up the Goku but I always left with something else. They look really cool and fun.

    They were in my local importants about a year or so ago. picked up Normal Goku, SSJ3 Goku and SSJ Gogeta. I notice that if you put Gogeta's head on Goku's body it sorta looks like SSJ2 Goku...

    Other way around, Bandai makes them, Jaks distributes. Jaks Pacific could never make figures that good, :lol .

    I prefer these personally. They don't fall apart as easily and have a more tougher feel to them.

    Yeah, we carried these at Target for awhile. Actually, they're not made by Jaks though... they're made by Bandai as they were out in Japan about two or so years before Jaks imported them (towards the tail end of all of Jaks stuff when DBZ was dieing out in the US with the decline of the TV series during the transition from Z to GT). They're really nice figures and a steal at that price too.

    However, if you're looking for some really awesome DBZ figures (and they're about the size of Revoltechs) check out these baby's: DBZ Hybrid Action. These guys are just awesome and they come with interchangeable parts and weapons on a few too. I have most of them and if you don't mind waiting on a slow boat from Hong Kong or Japan most can be obtained for a reasonable price.
