A few days ago we caught the 1st glimpse at the upcoming SH Figuarts Trunks figure from Dragon Ball Z. Recently, Bluefin Tamashii Nations USA updated their Facebook page with a new image of Trunks with purple(non Super Saiyan) hair, and more info:
Created through direct consumer feedback from the U.S. comes one of the most heavily requested Dragon Ball Z characters! And because we heard you, Trunks comes with both normal and Super Saiyan head/face pieces! Tamashii Nations and Bluefin is proud to present this U.S. and Tamashii Web Exclusive item! Coming May 2012. U.S. MSRP $48.99
Swords x2!!!!!
…
Interchangeable hand parts: 7 right hands, 5 left hands (plus the two attached to figure means 14 hand parts total)
Interchangeable face parts: 8 interchangeable faces (4 Normal, 4 Super Saiyan)
Looks like us Dragon Ball Z fans stateside actually lucked out this time around! Check out the new image of Trunk(with a clearer image of the Super Saiyan version too), after the jump!
Tom.com of Toy World HK forum found the image in a Chinese forum, apparently. No idea when it's released, but like most DBZ SHFs, it's probably going to be web exclusive in Japan and normally ordered off Bluefin from the United States.
OMG. I asked for 2 of these guys for Christmas, hope I get Piccolo and Goku to start my collection! Next on the list, Trunks and Vegita! Good find dude, I am STOKED. I would prefer if it was the purple haired one with this version though, and SS in armour.
Well, to quote my friend...
Why sell one toy when we can sell two?
They ARE planning to sell normal hair Goku eventually, as a standalone figure. He's been in the display cases of US Bandai booths in various conventions.
Well, I know I can probably just buy the head off of a custom site or something for a few bucks. All depends on accessories and shit. These figures aren't cheap after all.
DAMN good find I have the Vegeta on pre order status and about to do the same with SS3 goku but this again is great news
I kept telling myself I wouldn't get into other figure lines...this broke me.
Im in the same boat, I told myself I wouldnt get in to MU line now im hooked and going to NYCC I told my self dont go toward the DBZ figuart figures. Dammit I saw the display set up and boom I was in line buying any of whatever they had lol
I just pre ordered SSJ Vegeta =3.
lol Now if you want to dive in the deep end you could also pre order SS3 goku
Honestly, I'm not to worried about SS3 Goku. If it was SS4...then different story lol.
True the only thing I dont like is he has the same body as the other Goku I want a bigger frame that the SS3 had, Yea I like that head swap idea you brought up it would be cheaper
If I had 50+ dollars to drop on 3-4 different versions of one character, I would. The sad fact is, I don't. As bad I a feel for taking a short cut to save some money, I don't really have a choice. Sure I would have to paint the custom made head, and it probably won't have the changeable faces, but heck, saves me money for I can buy future figures. Like...maybe a Cell if he comes out? =3.
Yea they need to know it hard times now and 30 sounds better ( wishful thinking) if they had a Cell or a Majin buu MAN i would sh%t a brick lol
SON OF A BITCH!
*storms off*
Why so mad? XD
Because we're !@#$ING BROKE!
We can't afford Vegeta, SS3 Goku, Goku, Trunks or anything else!
We wasted so much money on shitty DBZ figures in the past and now they have THIS!!
HAHAHAHAH Fuck dude, I know the feeling. I'm not laughing at the broke part, that sucks. The shitty figures we all had as a kid who's legs didn't love and arms where made of rubber? Yea...good memories till shit broke lol. Then the articulated ones came out, dear lord those where EPIC. I had Nappa and Raditz. My brother had a few guys from Ginyu Force. Those figures aren't half bad. Their scouters where, always breaking off...fuck.

I know man I have tons of Irwin and Jakks figures sent A LOT of Time and Money, now there makin these sh***y priced Great quality Figures NOW. They started this line I think like in 2009 and has been slow up untill now
Yea, I out the SDCC one on my list. I feel like such a kid making a list =D. I also got Vegeta on pre-order on BBTS =D.
Welp, looks like somebody wants all of my money.
And I will gladly give it.
Hey Tiberius.
Guess what hairstyle is included in this release.
THAT'S RIGHT, BANDAI IS BEING BROS.

SO GLAD we will be able to get our hands on this without having to import it. TamashiiWeb items can get pricey, the fact that this one is ALSO a shared exclusive with the US is a great thing. Bluefin FTW.
I don't collect DBZ stuff any more... But Future trunks was always my favorite.. I might have to get this on principle.. How much do these go for?
(Nevermind is has the price right on it.. I'm dumb)
