The Toyark is catching up with S.H. Figuarts Dragonball Z galleries, one a day till we’re done! SDCC 2012 Exclusive Gohan is up on the roster today, repainting a highly sought after regular release Gohan. This was the Bluefin / Tamashii Nations exclusive for the show that year, doing Gohan up in Anime colors like they did for Goku the year before. He rocks a very colorful purple and darker skin tone. Check out our shots of one of the hardest to get pieces in the line after the break!
Stop back all week as we finish up our SHF DBZ galleries!
S.H. Figuarts SDCC 2012 Super Saiyan Gohan
Pros
Colors match anime better
Face detail paint less busy
Cons
A little too rich in the colors compared with other releases
Elbow joints can be loose
Overall
One of the last catch up figures I got as he is running high on the secondary market along with the regular version. Hopefully they figure some way to get him out to the masses again because now that the line has some steam, everyone wants Gohan. The colors on this are much better, very rich in saturation. Matches the Anime rather than the Manga. He’s a little too dark in the purple, even when matched up with SDCC Piccolo (coming later), but if I had to choose I’d grab those two, I’m an Anime guy first. Overall, great fig and great repaint, if you get a chance to pick him up reasonably do it.
Key Shots
Colors are much better here on the SDCC version.
Enough of this cape.

I look forward to this, yesssss
Why is your Piccolo a different color from mine?
1. Is he a Yoshi?
2. Can I ride him?
I agree this line of DBZ figures are great, SHF are some of the best figures out right now. I am fearing though that Bandai may restart the SHF like they did with Saint Seiya myth cloth, where all the first figures lost their value.
2. Can I ride him?
Let's be honest, some of the DBZ figures are already crazily priced on the secondary market. Reissues/updates of SS Vegeta or Trunks would be welcomed.

New line, which is new molds, and a bit bigger, better proportions

I wish they would start giving us some regular Dragonball Figuarts though. I really really want Kid Goku, Tao Pai Pai, Desert Bandit Yamucha, King Piccolo, and a Pilaf/Mai/Soba three pack.
Really, I want Nappa, first and foremost, then they can carry on. They showed him at SDCC and NYCC 2012, then poof.

I think I remember watching an interview that Bandai wants to see how well Brolly does with the larger body. I hope we get a Nappa with armor though, a naked Nappa can only make me so happy for so long lol.
Just to point it out, the 2 versions of SS hair Gohan comes with are for standard Super Saiyan mode & Super Saiyan 2. Though "Chillin" and angry work fine too XD
I really really want that color of Piccolo there. That is how he looks in the manga, but I'm not sure it is worth buying him a second time for a different color.
Nice pictures of SS Goku and Gohan.
It is weird though as some of the Gokus in your shots look like his gi is red while I have the regular one in my hands and it is quite orange.

RE: Red Goku - Well, here anyway on these monitors, none are red-red. However, the SDCC one, and the "Normal Version" one are more red-orange than the main release. The "Normal" moreso than the SDCC as well.
If you're saying those are just too red for what they should be, that is a possibility. Different light and post-processing methods will show colors differently during a photo shoot, it's possible I didn't optimize to show true colors properly. At the time of exporting them, I thought they were fine, but sometimes you get in a zone and lose true color rendition.
There are also a lot of shadows going on here, and shadowed orange will show up darker/redder most times. I'll take a look later, and if they are way off, I'll try to re-export with changes.
I have the SDCC Gohan, and the original release Piccolo. I kind of like the miss match, sets the apart a bit more than the obvious one is a little human/saiyan hybrid, and another is a 7 foot green alien.
Where did the Mini-Shenron with Dragon Balls come from??? It's awesome!
Do Frieza next.
The set I got isn't currently online anymore, and I didn't see it listed from anyone else on eBay. But this was it:

Those pics of Vegeta are awesome. Really like the ones of the three different versions together.
It really makes me mad that they haven't reissued SS Vegeta yet. They need to hurry up so I can have a SS display since it doesn't seem like they are going to give us a regular Gohan any time soon.
Oh, and they need to reissue SS3 Goku.
BTW, here is a seller with them. I just bought a set (although, I hope these aren't bootlegs):
