Now just get me a power rangers line with comparable articulation and every incarnation of the show! I've wanted to collect S H Figuarts for a while but the cost is far too high.
Same here. The Shodo figures are a wonderful alternative, however. And yes, that would be an AWESOME toy line. Get on it, Bandai!

I don't suppose anyone has suggested Rick and Morty?
-
My TRU has the Batmobile with Batman and Robin, but no single-carded figures...yet.
-
Does anybody else here watch Dragon Ball Super? If so, what do you think of it?
So far, I quite enjoy it. Granted, there were a few episodes that I found to be underwhelming, and there are a few inconsistencies, but these are minor quibbles. No show is perfect (although Rick and Morty and Breaking Bad come close), and overall, I think the pros far, far outweigh the cons.I just wish we'd get more Dragon Ball Super merchandise. Maybe some DBS Minimates? *flutters eyelashes at DSTZach*

They're pretty great. They also come with interchangeable hands, so you can pose them doing their various attacks. They're a good alternative to the S.H. Figuarts toyline which, while awesome, is a tad on the expensive side.

Does anyone else collect the Neo Shodo Dragon Ball Z toy line by Bandai? I started collecting them recently. They're 3.75 inches, which is nice, because they fit in well next to the Marvel Universe 3.75 inch figures (even if the DBZ ones are a tad shorter), and they have great detail and articulation.
So far I have wave 2 (Super Saiyan Blue Goku, Golden Frieza, Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta), wave 3 (Super Saiyan Vegito, Super Buu, Super Saiyan Gotenks), and wave 4 (Goku, Vegeta, Nappa).

MINI_MYTE has it.

I love this. This is your best one yet.

Congrats!
-
Keep 'em coming, guys!

On the contrary, it shows how serious we are. I would buy the hell out of these.

A lot of the movies would work as box sets.

Alternately, the two Bojack box sets could work as two waves (or as a box set and a wave separately); likewise with the Resurrection 'F' box sets.
-
Some filler characters might be cool to have (Garlic Jr., Icarus), but others we could probably live without (Mr. Satan's students who participated in the Cell Game, Gohan's teacher Mr. Shu, etc.) lol
-
Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Super Minimates would be cool, too.
-
The crummy character designs turned me off to that showif spectacular spiderman never existed this would be my favorite spidey show
I still enjoy it, though.
Agreed. I never saw The Spectacular Spider-Man, but from the few pictures I've seen, the animation was terrible.
I REALLY want to change the title of this thread to "60's Spiderman"...
I have the entire series on DVD. I'd be happy to part with it.
-
I loved this show.
-
I want some DBZ MM
Me too.
I'd sell one of my kidneys on the black market for some DBZ 'mates.
-
I have a lot of the Bandai Super Battle Collection figures, including most of the GT figures (I'm only missing Super Saiyan Goku); of the DBZ figures I have Super Saiyan Goku, Piccolo, Frieza, Cell, Super Saiyan Vegeta (but he has two right hands :/), Broly, Super Saiyan teen Gohan, Great Saiyaman (but his sunglasses are broken), Super Saiyan 3 Goku, Super Saiyan Vegeta (Buu Saga), Vegito, Super Saiyan Vegito, and a Goku that comes with 3 alternate heads (SS, SS2, SS3).
I also have some of the Irwin and Jakks Pacific figures; unfortunately, some of the paint on my Burter and Nappa figures is chipped off and part of my Tien's foot broke off. :/
I like the pairings but I would tweak them just a bit.My (hypothetical) DBZ Minimates toyline

Note #1: Yes, I know a lot of these match-ups might not canonically make sense, and some characters appear too frequently, but it was tough thinking up some of these waves
Note #2: Each of the Yamcha variants would come with Pu'ar
Wave 1 I would put Launch with Master Roshi, make her have alt yellow hair and have turtle as Master Roshi's stand.
Wave 3 I would get rid of the battle damaged versions of the z fighters and replace them with Kaio Ken Goku w/Oozaru Vegeta, Oozaru Gohan and Piccolo suit Gohan.
Wave 14 Replace Jewel and Killa with Supreme Kai and Kibito
Other than that I would gladly spend money to get every single one of these characters. Who would you put in your hypothetical Battle of Gods and Resurrection of F waves? Mine would go like this
Battle of Gods
SSG Goku/Lord Beerus
Enraged Vegeta/Bulma
Battle damaged Goku/Whis
King Vegeta/Kid Vegeta
Resurrection of F
SSGSS Goku/ Golden Frieza
SSGSS Vegeta/Sorbet
Tagoma/Jaco galactic Patolman
Gohan green track suit/VidelThose are all excellent suggestions. I had completely forgotten about King Vegeta. He and Bardock would easily work as a 2-pack for the main line, too. I would of course welcome Minimates of the movie characters, too, but whereas most Saiyans could have both regular and Super Saiyan versions in one figure (alternate hairpieces and faces, like Zak suggested), other characters would need two separate figures, due to the Super Saiyan form being much larger (I'm looking at you, Broly).

Wow, that's a lot. Why would these be like the first marvel waves, making you buy helmet-less Iron Man? Super Sayin Goku could have an alternate powered down hair and head, or maybe a hair that's both. Such as that Human Torch that was mid transformation. Also why not have awesome static statues like Snarf for small characters? Leaving short legs for kid Gohan and Krillen. Other then those two gripes, I'd buy them all.
This is sort of off the ramp of minimates, but I didn't really know where else to ask this. To your knowledge, are there any current more affordable DBZ toys that are either the size of minimates or as affordable?
I say this because when I was younger, Walmart and the like obviously sold DBZ merch for a relatively normal price. Nowadays, places like toywiz seem to have a large selection for 40 bucks and up for decent figures. I know the American market has fallen over the years, but surely there is something. I know Action 66 was mentioned, but that's just four characters. Thank you deeply in advance.
No idea. I collect the SH Figuarts line. Did you want the old school Bandi figures?
Like I said, I had trouble coming up with enough characters for some of the waves. I do like your idea better, though. The Saiyan characters could also come with attachable tails, too.
How much are SH Figuarts figures?
-
Figure I'd give you a head start. Should look good with some paint!
That hairpiece is PERFECT!

The newest wave, comprising Super Saiyan Blue Vegito, Super Saiyan Bardock, and Super Saiyan Broly just came out. I have all three. Here are some pics I took of Vegito.
