S.H. Figuarts 4th Form Frieza – New Release

under Dragonball Z Toy News

SH Figuarts 4th Frieza

…What happened to the third form?  Tamashii Nations have put up a listing for another re-use of the original S.H. Figuarts Frieza mold.  This is a new release, not a straight reissue due to it’s altered accessory pack ins.  The big change is the inclusion of a Namekian Dragon Ball, the 5 star.  He doesn’t come with the rocky mound from the first release, but does have the halo parts seen in the Super version.  The colors seem to be similar to the first release, with a less pure white body and a blueish tint.   Price has been reduced to 3850 yen or about 35 USD, so he looks to be joining Goku as an “entry point” release, ones you may find here in the USA at Target on shelf.  He’s a wide release due to ship in February 2022.

Read on for details and pics, stay tuned for pre-orders at our sponsors.

    A new retail release of the "Frieza Final Form"-body with a slightly different paint scheme? Accessories seem to be largely the same as the last release, only the beam and energy effects are excluded but they shaved off the price, the last release was ¥5720 ($50), this one is ¥3850 ($35).

    This new release includes:

    - 2 alternate faces
    - 2 alternate left and 4 alternate right hands
    - folded arms
    - one set of alternate feet
    - halo parts
    - one alternate tail
    - Five Star Namek Dragonball

    "Frieza 4th form" will go up for pre-order this Friday, September 3rd in Japan, release is February 2022.

    Thanks for the heads up, posted.

    What's crazy is that I always thought the first release was cool because of the rocky mound and extra feet to connect it, and they never did that again. In re-uses or on other figures.

    I always thought that little micro dios that help them stand and are specific to the theme would make a shelf kick ass.

    Yeah I we could get a budget figure other then Goku that would be really nice. I hope they add Vegeta to the mix as well. It's easier to swing $35 vs $60+ , especially when there's no good middle ground between the budget figures and SHF. Like there's no ML equivalent. The lack of torso articulation is where I'm getting at.

    Yeah that's a waste. The feet are still included, and they do sell rock accessories so one could recreate it, but I agree, more inclusions like this across other figures would’ve been nice. It can definitely elevate a display with a few simple touches.

    There is a new Vegeta in the pipeline and I would be shocked if they wouldn’t do exactly that.

    Honestly, I haven't even bought a Frieza yet because I always thought he was expensive. Like, not overpriced, you got what you paid for with all the accessories and stuff, but it's such a small figure, I couldn’t bring myself to drop 50+ bucks on it.

    At this pricepoint though I'm getting one for sure. Cutting the beam effects works for me too, those are accessories that I use the least.

    Actually I don't think they are. There were 3 sets of feet on the original, and one of them had pegs for the rock. Doesn't look like those are here. And no big beam or finger ball, which I am ok with.

    Oh you're right! I just assumed the posed feet were it, didn't even know they had two alternate pairs with the first release.

    Well I guess I'm glad people can get it at the entry price point now, and honestly the first form version is the only Frieza I really need, but I'm surprised they still haven't done a bulked up 100% power Frieza. The 2nd and 3rd forms are understandably the least in demand, but that buff version of the final form is really iconic.

    Very well, $35 bucks it's a great deal, I wish Bandai would do something similar with other past SHFA's, especially with those of high demand/popularity.

    So it's up now on BBTS.
    It makes we wonder why Krillin wasn't also a $35 figure.
    We might end up seeing Gold Frieza at this price point since it's just a color swap.

    In general Goku's body also works for teen Gohan(before the dark times) as well.

    I love these budget figures. Choices are a bit odd (Goku Black), but they're a nice affordable alternative to Dragon Stars.

    I'd definitely like Form 2 and 3 as well as Full Power and Mecha.

    This isn't comprehensive for all the internet but:

    Entertainment Earth - https://www.entertainmentearth.com/p...re/blfbas62977

    BBTS - https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Produ...Details/176932

    HLJ - https://www.hlj.com/s-h-figuarts-fri...form-bans62977

    Not up yet - but ToySource carries SHF DBZ consistently so I'd keep checking there too - https://thetoysource.com/dragonball-Z/?sort_by=newest
