Tamashii 2020 Event Exclusives In Hand Preview

Tamashii Nations 2020 exclusives, which would have kicked off at SDCC next week (:tearz) – are officially in the house!   We received an early care package and ran them quick for some base shots.  Included are the S.H. Figuarts Android 17 and 18 in event exclusive colors, S.H. Figuarts UI Sign Goku, S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla 2019 in event exclusive colors, and S.H. Figuarts ZERO statues of Vegito Blue and OG Broly.

All in all it’s a sweet line up.   Android 17 and 18 have been highly sought after on the secondary market, and these re-issues in slightly different colors allows folks to catch up. Still exclusive prices, but not that crazy secondary markup.  UI Sign Goku is great, I’ve been wanting a ripped undershirt version of Goku since day 1, and here he is.  Alternate colored heads pop right on as well.  We’ll do a more detailed gallery for each of those soon.

Clear blue Godzilla exclusive – yes please, plays well with light and the epic poster tones.  The Zero pieces – always admired them from a distance, and now that they are in hand I am impressed.  If I had space, I would gladly rock these alongside traditional S.H.F.  Broly is especially impressive in hand.

Read on to check them all out, 160+ pics including comparison shots for the S.H. Figuarts DB pieces.  They are up for pre-order now on Premium Bandai, no waiting!  Grab yours while they last!

The Toyark is happy to continue it’s galleries for S.H. Figuarts Dragonball Z figures today with Android 17! Android 17 was a natural next step after the previous release of his robo-sister, Android 18. Key players in the Cell Saga, they are definitely worthy of some shelf space along with Cell, Trunks, SS Vegeta, and Gohan, all previously released. So, how does Android 17 stack up with the rest? Check out our thoughts and over 50 shots in action after the break courtesy of site sponsor Entertainment Earth!

Oh, and for those who never jumped into Dragonball Z but have thought about it – the condensed, remastered, unedited (for blood etc) version begins re-airing again on the network that started the US DBZ craze over a decade ago – Cartoon Network, and specifically, Toonami. Now a more adult block, weekly instead of daily, Toonami will be airing these starting with episode 1 THIS WEEKEND. Set your DVR’s now, check the trailer below!

Bandai Tamashii Nations is holding an event showing off new goods from a wide array of properties, and Dragonball Z had a ton of new products revealed. From the S.H. Figuarts line we now have Buu, times two. Super Buu with Gohan absorbed, and Super Buu with Gotenks absorbed. Also seen was a full on Super Saiyan 4 Goku. Couple that with a Buu Saga adult Gohan, and the previously seen Vegito and it’s clear S.H. Figuarts will be moving to a Buu Saga theme next year. We also get a look at previously seen or released figures like Android 17 and Android 16.

Along with these S.H. Figuarts figures were a selection of new Effects pieces. Green Wind, Electricity, Clouds, Wilderness (perfect DBZ accessory), Energy (Alpha), Explosions (Gray and Orange), Lava and a Light Stand. These add to the Fire and Impact versions out last year so your displays should be much more dynamic soon.

Rounding out the DBZ themed part of the event, we have new Zero and Zero EX figures. For Zero, we see new Radditz, Bardock, another Goku, and Vegeta. For Zero EX, we have SS Trunks and Super Buu.

Overall a pretty solid DBZ showing, it’s gonna be a busy year if they actually all get released!

Check the images after the break courtesy of AmiAmi. And then head on over to our sister site TokuNation for additional Toku & Sentai coverage of the Tamashii Nations event.
