I love this figure but the neck is loose on mine and the ballpegs in the hips problem is actually real. The legs don't feel super tight but it's still putting a lot of stress on the ballpegs when you move the legs for some reason.

@@thegreatgamers9812 the head sculpt is undeniably spot on but the body is a total mess. First, it has that ugly crotch design that should have been done with by now, then he has an extremely wide chest, it may have looked like that in the show but it doesn’t translate well at all to a plastic figure that needs to be moved around. Every pose that involves the arms being moved towards the body or even moved at all make it look like he arms are dislocated from his body. Also he had gigantic shoulders and relatively slim rest of the arm. The new vegeta that was announced with the older armor is not much better
Been seeing too many cases of the legs breaking off to feel comfortable purchasing this figure. The quality of the Figuarts line is falling, but the fanboys will just attack you for pointing out the lack of quality.
Gohan's always been my favorite DB character. As a meek and studious kid, I were happy to find a character who only fought due to necessity and his sense of responsibility. It's the same reason why characters like Mega Man X and Guilty Gear's Ky Kiske appealed to me back then.
Fun fact if you have the older ssj2 Gohan either version, the ssj2 head does fit on this figure, the skin tone might be different, and it might look a little weird because the head is more sunken down, but that's a thing ya'll can do.
*QotD:* Soft goods can better portray foofier elements of a design (like Doctor Doom's cape from Marvel Super Heroes/MvC2). Something like the Mezco DKR Batman has a good idea for capes too with the heat-sealed vinyl bits that help it drape more naturally. I'd prefer it kept to capes/jackets, mostly kept to bits that largely don't hamper articulation.
Yeah I’m gonna stick with my 2.0 battle damaged gohan with the ssj1 and 2 heads once they release like a 5.0 gohan then I will MAYBE buy it but I just cannot keep supporting them with all the issues these figures have nowadays
Good choice. I have both and prefer the original. Got mine from P-Bandaii, tried to return it for QC issues, got re-directed twice then told to get in touch with Premium Bandaii. Absolutely ridiculous. I’ve come to like this figure a bit more since then, but generally I don’t like the direction SHF is going w/ the DB figures- specifically the 3.0 bodies & figure heights.
Idk why tamashii insists on using those weird hip flap things…I think they did it best with super hero ultimate gohan and I’m surprised they haven’t just stuck to that instead
Nobody is talking about this issue but when I pop the head off to remove the cape the neck joints become really loose and I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or not.
I felt this was a very fair review overall. And yeah, it's easy to see why this figure came out so polarizing. One could easily argue that the older figure is overall better. For me, the best thing about this one is the new faces and hair sculpt. Outside of that, no real reason to "upgrade" from the old figure. Makes me wonder if these new heads fit on the old body.
I never even noticed the glue showing through the cape, even after all I did with it to get the head on and whatnot🤔 funnily enough I’d told myself you’d give this guy a 7 was once you reviewed him and I was right
I bought this Gohan because I did not get the battle damaged version and sold my 1.0 Gohan. I'm not mad I bought it but I'm really not liking what they're doing with the 3.0's. The 2.0's weren't perfect but they were mostly better IMO.
I’ve always preferred Goku. While I guess kids can relate to standing up to a bully, but Goku did one much better. He stood up to the bully and made him his friend. Goku’s not the brightest guy but you got admire that he’s able to tackle evil on two fronts.
So when the hell are we gonna get a 2.0 Perfect Cell, I didn’t even know about this figure I feel like there’s already been 4 teen Gohans(not saying much seems as we have 20 different Goku’s)
I will never, ever forgive Tamashii for doing the thigh swivels the way they do with their 3.0 products. Using a screw to secure the peg to the upper thigh instead of it just being part of the mold like the 2.0 figs is an objectively bad design. I always have QC issues with 3.0 figures, and it’s always the lower body. Always. Aesthetically, the 3.0s are better and it’s not even close, but I much preferred posing the 2.0 figures because they seemed way more durable.
Careful Anthony. If they spent a little more time with it just to finally choose double ball peg and stretchy material they'd find another reason to up the price on another basic main character
wait until the legs on your figure break, almost every gohan came with both leg joints pretty damn tight, they move tho but you can't really notice you are stressing the plastic on the joints
@@Saiyan1229 i *think* shock oil won't completely do it, i've seen cases it works and also some it still stresses the plastic, but i'm pretty sure it's because the plastic was already too damaged
As soon as I saw the hips and the lack of ab articulation, I knew this was a rip off. This is marvel legends levels of disappointing, which is said because legends and SHF DBZ were my favorite lines. They’ve just been so inconsistent. Idk why they are over complicating articulation they already nailed down years ago. Oh well, thankfully all my characters figures already have good iterations that were made in the past.
Hey Anthony are the joints deep enough that you could trim the hip flaps down? They would still be somewhat thick looking around the thigh but I suppose you could sand them down a bit to try and make them flush to trick the eye.
Did you have to do anything for the legs? I keep seeing posts of his leg snapping off. Question of the day: Gohan, I like them both but Gohan became my favorite between the two easily after seeing Future Gohan.
Why the hell are they giving figures windswept hair lately instead of another super saiyan head? Trunks had both forms (base and super saiyan) but iconic Gohan doesn’t have SSJ2 with his super saiyan one? And GT goku didn’t have a super saiyan head, just windswept. I’d rather have a different form if I’m getting a whole other head
Just got mine last night. A tad bit fiddly but I like it a lot Update. My hips got stuck and basically one twist away from tearing right off the peg. Pray for me
Sucking at something is the first step to being good at something. They had good ideas, but they didn't transition too well in engineering. I can see P-Bandai learning from this and giving us yet another banger of a Naruti figure down the road, but now I'm worried to see how the Full Power Frieza will turn out later this year because it's going to have the same soft plastic as this Gohan. I don't regret passing on this figure. I've also seen several posts of this figure breaking at the hips, too. Maybe a reissue would help address the QC issues like they did with Future Trunks, but i still wouldn't get this. I'd rather wait for a 2.0 (3.0?) SS2 Gohan and fingers crossed a Perfect Cell 2.0
They did, gohan caused the sales of the manga to slip and the higher ups told toriyama to bring back goku, same thing happened with the androids 19-20 were supposed to actually be the main threats before cell but he was told a fat and old guy wouldn’t sell well and that’s why 17-18 were created
Gohan's always been my fav, and for a long time I really wanted him to become the main character of the story, but as I grew older I started to understand that that wasn't what Toriyama wanted for his character, and more-or-less began to accept the character he becomes later; I'm also quite partial to Superhero's nerdy dad take on his character lol. As for the cape on the figure, I'm kinda 50/50 on it. The glue thing honestly doesn't bother me that much, it's more just kinda how see-through the material is. I think what have been nice would've been nice Imo would be if they put some kinda silky, almost reflective fabric on the inside to bounce some of the color of the uniform back onto the figure, and I also think it'd compliment the plastic parts better. But overall, it's not that big of a dealbreaker.
FINALLY. Love Gohan but Goku is my favorite of the two. Wouldn’t have minded if Gohan took over though. Also soft goods. Also oil up your leg joints. 3 more just broke today.
Gohan is my favorite character in Z and he’ll always be at the top of my list, sucks that Super has no idea what to do with him besides repeating the same character arc over and over again. Still love Goku tho
Personally I love Gohan and would have liked to see him actually get a full shit at being the main character. As for the figure I think it's good but it's not figure of the year material like most of the people on Reddit say, it's just an above average figure for me. One annoying thing though is the heads go really loose after swapping them or having the cape on, make it a pain to pose around
I like the figure and yes they should did it better. They attempting to add soft good so they could do better and reissue more characters with soft good
Gohan all the way. Tbh none of what u mentioned as a problem bothers me some i didnt even notice. The only annoying thing id say is it needed an effect part and maybe a super sayin 2 head. Other than that i really like the figure.
Solid figure overall just not feeling the cape and wish the torso and ankle range was better and still not feeling the weird hip flaps but still a solid figure!
only issue is the neck is loose as hell, personally a great figure and they keep improving and improving i’m loving it edit: also the shoulder pads make the neck articulation incredibly limited but that’s about it
I know you kind of talked about your feelings on pinned and no pinned joints. Would you be able to explain in one of your videos since you do design figures what is the benefit if there are any of one verse the other? I enjoy no pinned joints as much as the next person, but if it’s the same color, it does not matter to me.
@@AnthonysCustomsimo it's either mafex, jadatoys or storm collectibles (1/12 scale lol) I think the soft diaper helps with range of motion, I don't really like the legs on mafex though.
Gohan will always be my favorite he was so cool and has so much development! I love this figure it represents this iconic moment so good!! Wish they make a future gohan or ultimate Gohan soon!
iirc toriyama wanted the series to end after the cell saga with gohan taking the lead role. but goku got so popular that he continued with goku. this is pretty evident when you watch the last episodes of the arc. goku dies while "helping" gohan protect earth, vegeta vows to never fight again, trunks goes home and kills the androids, piccolo takes kami's role and watches over earth, yamacha and tien go train(?) & krillen ALMOST gets the girl
