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.

x SHF Dragonball 2021 Retail 1

Dropping a gallery today for some recent S.H. Figuarts Dragonball figures!  Starting this year, the line has split between Premium Bandai and mass retail releases.  There really has only been three regular retail drops so far – Piccolo Version 2, Bardock, and First Form Frieza with his Pod.  These are what we are looking at today.  All 3 are welcome additions and well done.  Piccolo was the first SHF DBZ figure released way back in late 2009, so he was due for an update with new technology.  Bardock has been requested for almost as long by fans of the series and line.  First Form Frieza is a fantastic add with his Pod, done well in other sub-lines and now finally in S.H. Figuarts form.

We’ve run all three for over 125 HD shots. Read on to check them out, courtesy of The Toy Source! If you are looking to catch up on S.H. Figuarts retail releases – they have stock on most of the recent offerings, along with some copies of the sold out Premium Bandai versions.

Prime 1 Studio 2020 Next Level Showcase 228

Prime 1 Studio held a massive online reveal event last night, which they called the Prime 1 Studio Next Level Showcase 2020. They revealed well over 30 statues. The video, which is nearly 3 hours long. The first hour recaps many of their past statues. However, the remainder of the video is dedicated to detailed looks at all of these upcoming statues. Since the video is so long, I’ve taken the time to do detailed screen captures (over 225) of all of the new items, and broken down the reveals below. Sizes weren’t mentioned for all of them, but they are typically 1/4 scale and 1/3 scale. I’ve skipped sketches, which went by very quickly. You can see those images, and watch the video after the jump. For the Transformers reveals, check TFW2005’s coverage Here and Here.

SHF SDCC Golden Frieza 36

Catch up time! This is a back dated entry for S.H. Figuarts SDCC Exclusive Golden Frieza. This dropped earlier in the year and the figure is a straight repaint of the original release. This edition featured a more muted golden paint application, with the difference between the two gold tones less drastic. He is an exclusive originally available at San Diego Comic Con but will also be sold at remaining Dragonball Tour 2019 stops globally. Since he’s been out a bit we’ll skip the review, just want to be complete with our archival galleries!

Finally, The Rock has come back… wait wrong rock. Today we are taking a look at the Tamashii Nations Effect Rock. These are modular pieces that start as smaller rocks, combine up to half mounds, and then finally into a circular boulder. How you use or display them is up to you. They can be rubble scattered around, a base for a figure, or a huge thing in the background of your photography or display shelves. They use peg connectors to fit together, and when not combined they can take a standard Tamashii Stage stand in the ports. So you can have your figures hovering or dynamically posed, using any one of the pieces as a weight. Overall it’s a great accessory piece that is useful for displays. We’ve taken shots showing some of what it can do with different figures after the break, read on to check em out!

They are out now in Japan and at US retailers including some of our sponsors below!
