You're absolutely correct - Namek Saga is the best saga - and the fight between Super Saiyan Goku and Full Power Frieza was iconic and legendary! Can not wait for my figure to arrive!
ill never forget being 7 years old explaining to my mom in the car how goku punched frieza in the stomach and made blood come out of his mouth😂 she didnt like that too much
As a kid, the original action figure is way more durable to play with, and the fewer joints means they won't wear out. As an adult, the new version is amazing for the variation of posing.
I loved the Namek Saga so much as a kid. I legit thought the series was going to end when Namek exploded and when they had more episodes afterwards, I thought as a kid "Oh that's nice. They're showing what everyone is doing after Goku died." And then the Android Saga started.
It's so good, isn't it!? I remember thinking to myself "where are they going to go from here?" And then they took us through some awesome stories with the Android, Cell and Buu sagas.
Lol, me as a kid thinking THOSE were the definitive figures. I could never have imagined how good figure technology would become. I wonder if in 20 years we'll think the same of 2023 figures.
I’m new to collecting figures and I had no desire of getting this figure even when it was first revealed for some reason, but after the past month, and seeing so many unboxing videos of this guy. I’ve changed my mind completely! I now gotta own this figure. Especially seeing how his face literally looks anime/manga accurate. Definitely will be getting this figure soon!
You should before tamashii stops selling this figure, this is the cheapest you’ll ever get a SSJ goku especially awakening SSJ goku in recent years. I have this figure and my god it’s the best figure I have in my collection. THE.BEST.
Get him now man, from experience you definitely wanna find a guy as popular as this guy for original price. I swear i've had so many regrets when i don't get figures that fly off the shelves and are marked up 20$ to 100$ over the original price. Goodluck to your collection tho dood, I remember when i first started seriously collecting.👍

man, I remember my freind getting this figure from an import shop in 96. They were $20 and back then that was alot of money for a toy. We also had to purchase VHS tapes to see the cartoon. It was not on TV. People I talked to made fun of me for watching this, now it is a worldwide phenomenon.😢

Namek Saga was easily the BEST saga written by Toryomia (peak) The pacing, chacracter development, and tone. It didn't feel so removed from Dragonball like everything after it. It felt full circle for Goku. He worked his way up from the bottom of his people through his experiences in Dragonball to even surpassing the elite of his people in the Namek Saga. He went from achieving the title of being the strongest on earth (23rd Tournament) to being the strongest in the universe! He also achieved legendary status as a SUPER SAIYAN! Frieza is the BEST villian in the franchise. Think about it: He's a prince with 79 planets named after him. He has his own spaceship, goons/ soldiers, two bodyguards, a private army, and most importantly..............HIS OWN HOVER POD!😲 While everyone else is using their power to fly, Frieza just gets in pod and takeoff😂 Oh and he held the title as strongest in the universe. What a cold name that fits his chacracter too😨 FRIEZA=PLATINUM BOSS STATUS! 😎
The Irwin Toys Super Saiyan Goku was very limited in articulation, but the sculpt was good enough to make it visually appealing. I still have my old Irwin Goku in box that I cut open seamlessly at the base for I could still play with it and put it back in the box like new condition. I learned that trick on TV from some collector's segment on a show. I remember seeing all these figures lined up and numbered in the back of Electronic Gaming Monthly magazines without a clue to who most of the characters were since we were stuck in the "DBZ Trickling Loop" when Saban/Funimation localized it. All I knew is that they looked cool and I wanted them all. 25 years later the target audience of kids in Japan grew up to make some unimaginable leaps in toy manufacturing. The best part about it is they're still finding ways to make them better! Great review! 👍
I say the old figures are exponentially better. Like 100s of times better. The ability to articulate modern models makes them look horrible with all the cuts and breaks. Looks incredibly unappealing and just a bunch of places to break the figures articulating them. The older figures look better and are significantly better quality overall in my opinion. Would never invest in new dragon ball figures. They just look terrible.
@@EpicBongZilla HARD disagree. Look at the terrible sculpt on all the older figures, they're so barely recognizable they look like bootlegs. The new figures look much better, breaks or no breaks. As a kid I always DESPISED figures that had such limited articulation, especially for characters that are supposed to be doing things dynamically--it limited how I could move the toy, and while imagination can fill in the gaps, four points of articulation is godawful for posing or playing. I think peak articulation for me is going to have to be the 3-inch GI Joe figures they used to sell--the ones that bent at the waist via a rubber band, and had the legs connected to a metal bar that held the rubber band in place. Loved those toys
@@stonedwizard0420 always hated original GI figures. Same reason I can't stand new dragon ball figures with more articulation. I'd 100% disagree. I'd say the complete opposite of what you said. newer models with all the cuts to articulate. Are far harder to discern as their actual character and look way more bootleg imo. I'll always be a far bigger fan of the OG toys with the interchangeable heads and especially the series that came with a dragon ball with each figure. Looking at my beautiful Z sword gohan from 2000 right now. No gohan figure looks better. Peak dragon ball toy development. Nothing can change my mind. But that's what's interesting about people. The variability of opinion
I remember the super Saiyan Vegeta had the snap on chest armor. I had a bunch of them. Raditz, SSJ Vegeta, future Trunks and chibi Trunks, base Goku, 100% power Freeza, Piccolo (which had removable turban and cape). Now I have over 100 S.H. Figuarts DBZ figures. Crazy.
I still have my first Dragon Ball toys I ever got. I was a problem kid at school in like 3rd grade, and so I was assigned to do most of my work in an environment where I wouldn't get into fights on the regular. The teacher assigned was this Persian (Iranian) lady, whose eldest daughter was working in London at the time, and as a gift she had bought me a set of different Dragon Ball Z action figures. Goku, Piccolo, Captain Ginyu, Frieza, and Trunks iirc. Still have them 'til today. And I still send flowers to my teacher every Christmas, going on twenty years.
@@vascotoys that's like the only thing I kept from my childhood for some reason... Lost all my old Pokemon cards, all my old power ranger figures and all my old Star Wars figures from the 90s.. have absolutely no idea what happened to any of those so I damn sure made sure to hold on to all of my old DBZ figures!💯
@@rcdune7132 well good for you for at least having those. I have some of my other stuff, but I stupidly told my parents to sell stuff at garage sales, so that is on me.
@@vascotoys oof... Yeah that's Definitely painful my friend.. I'll do you one better haha we had to move out of the house I grew up in when I was 17 and I stupidly left a lot of stuff behind, including Jurassic Park and Godzilla figures, video game systems like Sega, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 along with plenty of games... My reasoning was because I'm an adult now and I don't need childish things 🤦🏻🤦🏻... Like bro... Every time I think about that moment I just want to punch myself in the head for being so stupid...
@@rcdune7132 ohhhhhh that's the same reason I told my parents to sell some of my stuff. Luckily I was smart enough to keep at least a handful of things.
As a kid, I always felt like the collectible figurines were the best quality toys. I'd buy McFarlane quality figurines and the clerk would look at me like: "You know, this isn't a toy, right?" Me: "It is now!"
I’m not a fan of how separated the new one’s body looks due to all the deep lines on it. That’s what allows for the movements but it looks like his chest is body armor.
Yeah, not the best looking S.H. Figurart. The figures with his shirt look way better that this. They went way too overboard with articulation with this figure.
I'm actually a little torn. This new figure is amazing. For how posable it is, the joints aren't that visible. That being said, they are still VERY visible. As I don't change poses on my figures often as I display them, I wonder if a more dynamically pre-posed goku, but with less joints is better for me, or this one because it is an insanely impressive figure.
I think it comes down to preference. There are some really detailed statues that don't articulate you may want to look at by a company called Banpresto and then compare to the SH Figuarts figure.
This is probably the quintessential version of Goku and the version I most think of for DBZ. Although all versions of Goku are awesome! I would also say this Goku is one of the best action figures I've ever held in hand. I was amazed when he arrived at how great he is. Great job, S.H.Figuarts!!!
My figure arrives in February, and my only complaint from what I've seen so far is the coloration on the chest piece, but fixing that doesn't look too hard.
I think once you have it in hand, you'll be very happy. And yes, if you are comfortable painting your figures, the chest piece can be repainted. Thanks for watching the video!
I've been waiting on this figure for so long. I missed Awakening SSJ Gokou so this was a must have for me. Great video man. You're a passionate and long-time fan of Dragon Ball and this was a great review. Cheers!
My older brother actually had a copy of that Goku figure from way back when. When I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a very familiar figure, and when you mentioned that it had a snap-on shirt accessory I knew it was definitely that model. Brings so much memories.
💯 yes!! That’s the best version of Goku with his big boulders for shoulders I can hear him saying, “It’s done…you’re not even a challenge to me anymore.”
I remember these toys vividly. Despite their lack of extensive articulation, they were so damn fun to play with. I had base goku, super saiyan goku, base vegeta, super saiyan vegeta, future trunks, perfect cell, broly, super saiyan teen gohan, super saiyan adult gohan from movie 10. All great toys.
They were definitley awesome for the time! I have very fond memories of them from my childhood. Thanks for watching the video and leaving me this comment.
seeing them side by side is sooo insane. towards the end of last year i've been finally taking notice of the sh figuarts lines of figures...and i think i'm finally fully converted. that new goku looks amazing
I totally agree! It's crazy to see how far things have come. If you get one in hand I think you'll be even more impressed. I love my Dragon Ball Z SH Figuarts collection!
@@vascotoys I agree I currently have the S.H.Figuarts Bardock,Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta and Super Saiyan Full Power Broly and they are well worth the amount I spent for them
I remember my little brother showing me pictures of this guy a few months ago and I remember thinking to myself, this is the toy I wish I had as a kid! I love this figure so much and it's what Jumpstarted my SH figuarts collection! I love this toy!!
@@kaiju_boi9 I'm really glad you liked this review and want to see me review another figure. I only really review a figure when I have a strong connection to the character or a ton of excitement about it. I don't have that kind of connection to One Piece or Luffy, so I don't think the review would be very good.
@@vascotoys I've only seen one episode of Dragon Ball but I really want you to review the S.H. Figuarts Goku Black. I like Godzilla and seeing Godzilla's new Evolved form just reminded me of Super Saiyan Rose, so can you please try to review Goku Black? Thanks for reading this!
Aside from the few quality toy companies, I feel the toy figure industry died a long time ago. It's nowhere near as prevalent in terms of quality and direction as it once was. Most Target and Walmart toys are pretty much glorified happy meal toys😢
It is sad to see the toys made for children are so lackluster at this point. I think you are spot on. The companies making collectibles are doing amazing things, but toys intended for children leave a lot to be desired these days.
Best review of this guy. I also bit the bullet and ordered two for the same reason. He is still in my pile of loot at bbts and i can't wait to get him. Your personal history with DBZ toys made this review. Subbed.
It is so cool to hear that and I sincerely appreciate it. I very rarely do figure reviews, but I was just so excited for this that I had to film a review.
The way you feel about this Goku is how I feel about the SHF second form Frieza since I used to have the Irwin figure when I was a kid. That’s always been my favorite form for Frieza he looks so cool.
the irwin line releases were always absolute kino or pure arse, i still have my giant ssj goku he's got a strong presence on my shelf still to this day
I had that first Goku you showed. I traded a bunch of stuff with a friend to get that Goku. Absolutely loved that figure played with it constantly. I kept it hidden under my bed because I didn’t want my parents to know I traded so much for it. One night the dog slept under my bed and destroyed that Goku figure. I was devastated. Just seeing that in your vid brought back so many memories.
Ahhhh man, I'm sorry it got ruined by the dog! I'm glad the video helped bring back your fun childhood memories of the figure, though. Thanks for watching my video.
The original Bandai versions were called "The Super Battle Collection" if you still want to find them. The gold haired versions were what we all wanted as kids and I actually have the entire Super Battle Collection. While I was in the Army I bought every figure in the original box. Every one I wished I had when I was younger. OP will probably not see this comment but if you have a twitter account I could send you a picture of the whole collection. I'll always prefer the OGs.
@Kelnurok good info and I did see the comment for sure. I actually just came out with the second video in this series where I bought a sealed Super Battle Collection Vegeta and compared it to it's SH Figuarts counterpart. Just posted it yesterday if you want to check it out.
I love that era of dragon ball Z so much, including the art style of those early sagas. Goku was suuuuuper jacked and the figure looks just like how he did in the show. A diorama set up of him standing over cut-in-half frieza would be so dope.
Thanks for checking this out! I totally agree. Figuarts us coming out with the 100% Frieza later this year and I will be for sure making dioramas for he and Goku to battle in.
Thank you Rocco! Thanks for always encouraging me. As you know, I really try to get better every time I make a video and I am so glad to see people have decided to watch this one.
I used to have so many of those little Dragon Balls from when I was a kid. I've moved multiple times since the early 2000s, even to a different state, and still to this day, I find them in the most random places. They somehow always find a way to follow me through a move lol
Funny thing is I used to have ssj Goku and ssj Trunks with sword when I was maybe 6yo in 1993 or something, but had no idea about DBZ at all. Years after it was shown in CN here in Europe and still some years after the show (lost action figures somewhere unfortunately) I realized where those figures were from lol
Rare to see toys/games in such good condition. Most children I know absolutely destroy their game consoles and toys when they're kids by taking horrible care of them me included.
The very first one I had was the Super Collection Trunks back then in the 90s. I still remember how I couldn't get the Goku (which is the SS Namek Arc ver.) and was kinda bummed about it. I think I also had the Vegeta too. The only thing that was movable was their arms and that was it. They're pretty much like a Sofubi. (vinyl toys)
Oh very cool, I never had that Trunks but always thought he looked cool. Yeah, the articulation was almost non existent back then. Thanks for watching and for sharing your toy memory with me.
I have this figure. It really is awesome especially growing up with the original. I wish that the extra hair was the OG manga Super Saiyan Hair from the first exclusive release of this figure.
Awesome! It really is a great figure. Interesting thought on the hair. I hadn't really thought of that as an option for this, but could be cool. I do really like the hair sculpts we got though.
I remember that figure. One of my favorites. I collected from '00-'03. Idk remember how many I had but the only ones I wasn't allowed to have was kid trunks. The models back then were damn cool also.
Totally remember those old DBZ figures. I had a few of them. This same Goku and Golden Haired Gogeta were two of my favorite. I remember the Beckett Dragon Ball Z Collectors magazine had a check list of all of them and it was my dream to collect them all some day. Sadly i only had about 6 or 7. SS Goku Golden Hair Gogeta Black Hair Vegito Fat Buu Saiyan Saga Vegeta Cell Saga SS Trunks I feel like I also had SS3 Goku but that couldve just been the next one I wanted on the list
Honestly, seeing someone that passion gives me a smile, i know that sigh of satisfaction at 4:14, thats the sigh u make when ur truly happy n excited lol
Thank you for saying that! That figure is something I have been waiting to get really since I was a kid. I was truly excited and I am glad that came through in the video.
@@vascotoys i can totally see it, and i had the same toy u had back then i had goku, vegeta n freiza. It was so cool, but i lost freiza's tail cuzi it was too fun to spin his tail as a kid lol
That's insane, reminds me of how i still have my 4Kids era Monkey D. Luffy figure from when i was a kid, but recently got the post timeskip Luffy figure by the "Anime Heroes" figure line. funny enough thanks to Anime Heroes i was finally able to get a Kurosaki Ichigo action figure, since as a kid they only had Goku, Naruto, and Luffy because Bleach was on Adult Swim so it didn't have toys. so now i finally have The Big 3 and their predecesor, Goku! lol.
Yes! But I purchased it in 1999 in a KB Toys. I mentioned these were re-releases of figures previously released by Bandai. Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment.
I have SS Goku, Piccolo, Frieza, and Kid Trunks from the Irwin line. Those were always my favorite line of DBZ toys just out of nostalgia. I could never find SS3, but wanted it so bad. lol
Quality action figure 100%. Dragon Ball Z always has the best figurines from what I remembered as a kid. But naw these action figures are incredible nowadays. This video made me consider collecting now that I'm older.
I wonder if action figure designers in the future will find a way to hide the joints on figures under a "skin" of sorts that it both durable and affordable to create. I think it would make this so much better.
I'm sure they will find ways to continually improve them. There is a Dragon Ball Z line made by Bandai that was seamless joints. The figures are 8" tall.
Great video!!! The new Sh Figuarts Ssj Goku is perfect, it is astonishingly amazing, a true masterpiece ❤ I sure hope I can get him. And also nice story about your Irwin Toys Ssj Goku, I know what was like having a very special toy back then ❤
It's unfortunate and that does need to be fixed. Idk if it is an on-camera thing versus an in-hand thing or the fact that I was so excited, but I didn't notice it on mine.
if you take the body of the old Irwin goku, it would be cool to customize it to fit the dragon ball evolved heads, gives you more options and all that, ssj, ssjb, UI, mui and so forth
That's an interesting idea. Do you think the Evolve heads are the right size? I think they may be too small to fit on the Irwin bodies. Also the Irwin heads are fixed on the body, so it might be hard to remove those.
@vascotoys the heads are pretty much in scale However you would have to add a balljoint at the head with some clay Since the irwin heads move at the middle of the neck
DBZ's original Toonami run did start in 1996. The issue is that the series would constantly play over and over from the Saiyan to Ginyu saga until 1999 once Funimation got the full rights to dub the show in-house.
No, Dragon Ball Z did not start broadcasting on Toonami until August 1998. The show was originally aired in syndication on the Saban Kid's Network beginning in 1996. Cartoon Network picked up the show and re-ran the first 53 episodes where it found a bigger audience and ultimately led to FUNimation dubbing more episodes.
Yessssss! I am so excited we are getting that figure. Having that Frieza with this Goku is going to be the centerpiece of my collection. I'm going to have to make a Diorama to recreate that battle between them.
isnt it weird how in their own commercial from the 1:25 mark of this video, they morph from a screenshot of the show to a picture of the action figure and you can see the proportions in the face are completely different. you would think somebody would say "oh no we screwed up, we can't release it like this." but they didn't. it's almost like they didn't even use pictures from the show as references.
I totally agree! I want SH Figuarts to make the version of namek Vegeta where he is in the Saiyan armor without the pauldrons. I'm sure they'll get to that eventually, but we really are in need of a battle damaged Vegeta. They've never made any battle damaged version of Vegeta.
Man that 1996 SSJ goku was my first DBZ figure. My big brother got it for me In 99. I've still got the front of his shirt but my brothers friend lost the back of it about 20 years ago 😭😭😭
Ahhhhh Idk about you but as an adult collector I take really good care of accessories because of how frequently I lost them as a kid. Thanks for checking this out and leaving me a comment.
@vascotoys Haha same man! Evert figure I've purchased in adulthood has never seen the outside of the box apart from a couple duplicates I've received as gifts lol. No doubt man you got a new sub loving the content 💯
@@vascotoys I actually have the base goku, base trunks, ssj gohan (picollo outfit) and broly legendary ssj hehe. when i was young i was already amazed with just movable shoulders :D
FINALLY someone that f KNOWS what hes talking about, someone that recognizes what part of the anime the action figure belongs to. The Yelling face is when frieza says that hes going to kill goku like he did to his friend, refering to krillin, at that time goku yells and powers up, and that face is that exact moment
Yes! What an important moment that they captured with that face plate. I'm really glad you liked the video and I appreciate you leaving me this comment.
Thanks TRG! That was such a cool moment for me. I'm really glad that I decided to do this video so I could capture that moment. Appreciate you watching.

Peak dragon ball toy development. Nothing can change my mind.
But that's what's interesting about people. The variability of opinion
I had a piccolo figure as a kid around that same time, man I wish I still had it.
You should be able to grab one on eBay if you want to. Thanks for watching!
I remember the super Saiyan Vegeta had the snap on chest armor. I had a bunch of them. Raditz, SSJ Vegeta, future Trunks and chibi Trunks, base Goku, 100% power Freeza, Piccolo (which had removable turban and cape). Now I have over 100 S.H. Figuarts DBZ figures. Crazy.
Yes! DBZ stuff is so much fun to collect. Thanks for taking the time to comment on the video.
Awesome job, I enjoyed watching this! It's great to see you continually evolving your editing style, keep the videos coming!
Thank you, Duane! Always appreciate your support and your help.
I still have my first Dragon Ball toys I ever got. I was a problem kid at school in like 3rd grade, and so I was assigned to do most of my work in an environment where I wouldn't get into fights on the regular. The teacher assigned was this Persian (Iranian) lady, whose eldest daughter was working in London at the time, and as a gift she had bought me a set of different Dragon Ball Z action figures. Goku, Piccolo, Captain Ginyu, Frieza, and Trunks iirc. Still have them 'til today. And I still send flowers to my teacher every Christmas, going on twenty years.
That's an incredible story. What an awesome gift to receive as a kid. Thanks for sharing this and for watching the video.
I thankfully still have my ENTIRE collection of Bandai and Irwin DBZ figures ❤❤❤❤❤
That's awesome!!! Wish I had kept everything I had.
@@vascotoys that's like the only thing I kept from my childhood for some reason... Lost all my old Pokemon cards, all my old power ranger figures and all my old Star Wars figures from the 90s.. have absolutely no idea what happened to any of those so I damn sure made sure to hold on to all of my old DBZ figures!💯
@@rcdune7132 well good for you for at least having those. I have some of my other stuff, but I stupidly told my parents to sell stuff at garage sales, so that is on me.
@@vascotoys oof... Yeah that's Definitely painful my friend.. I'll do you one better haha we had to move out of the house I grew up in when I was 17 and I stupidly left a lot of stuff behind, including Jurassic Park and Godzilla figures, video game systems like Sega, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 along with plenty of games... My reasoning was because I'm an adult now and I don't need childish things 🤦🏻🤦🏻... Like bro... Every time I think about that moment I just want to punch myself in the head for being so stupid...
@@rcdune7132 ohhhhhh that's the same reason I told my parents to sell some of my stuff. Luckily I was smart enough to keep at least a handful of things.
Those OG action figures were the best. There was just such a collectible aspect to them
They were great! I agree. That was back in the day when collecting a whole wave of figures didn't cost a fortune.
I agree. I wish my mom hadn’t thrown away all my old toys. Dumb B word throws everything away.
As a kid, I always felt like the collectible figurines were the best quality toys. I'd buy McFarlane quality figurines and the clerk would look at me like: "You know, this isn't a toy, right?"
Me: "It is now!"
I’m not a fan of how separated the new one’s body looks due to all the deep lines on it. That’s what allows for the movements but it looks like his chest is body armor.
Yeah, it looks like shit tbh
@@CRL365 100% agree. I honestly feel like the old design + a better face would just be better lol.
Yeah, not the best looking S.H. Figurart. The figures with his shirt look way better that this. They went way too overboard with articulation with this figure.
@@dhgmrz17 Dude looks like a Lego robot... It's REALLY bad.
You vs the guy she tells you not to worry about
🤣🤣🤣 this literally made me laugh out loud.
I'm actually a little torn. This new figure is amazing. For how posable it is, the joints aren't that visible. That being said, they are still VERY visible. As I don't change poses on my figures often as I display them, I wonder if a more dynamically pre-posed goku, but with less joints is better for me, or this one because it is an insanely impressive figure.
I think it comes down to preference. There are some really detailed statues that don't articulate you may want to look at by a company called Banpresto and then compare to the SH Figuarts figure.
This is probably the quintessential version of Goku and the version I most think of for DBZ. Although all versions of Goku are awesome!
I would also say this Goku is one of the best action figures I've ever held in hand. I was amazed when he arrived at how great he is. Great job, S.H.Figuarts!!!
Awesome and yes, they absolutely nailed this. I think this is the best figure they have ever made (although I don't have all of them).
YOU CANT WIN NOW FRIEZA I HAVE OVER 50 MILLION POWER IN RISE OF KINGDOMS!🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My figure arrives in February, and my only complaint from what I've seen so far is the coloration on the chest piece, but fixing that doesn't look too hard.
I think once you have it in hand, you'll be very happy. And yes, if you are comfortable painting your figures, the chest piece can be repainted. Thanks for watching the video!
@@vascotoys Just discovered your channel, so I’ll be sure to stick around some more.
@@Sky_Of_Death54 very cool! Thanks, I'm so glad you like the channel and appreciate the support.
Thank you for making this.
I've been pretty on the edge on getting this figure and this video has solidified my wand for it now.
Hey that is awesome man! Glad you enjoyed the video.
i remember playing the older version as a kid now I'm planning on getting the newer version! I'm so excited! thank you for sharing this with me :)
@@SonicM216 that's awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video
Those early figures that Irwin sold in 1999 were from Super Battle Collection which Bandai started in 1991 in Japan of course🤓
When I was a kid all I wanted in life was the battle damaged super saiyan irwin goku
I totally identify with this. I always wanted battle damaged DBZ figures.
I've been waiting on this figure for so long. I missed Awakening SSJ Gokou so this was a must have for me.
Great video man. You're a passionate and long-time fan of Dragon Ball and this was a great review. Cheers!
Thanks Carson! I appreciate you saying that. I have Awakening Goku and love that figure, but this one is WAY better. You will love it.
@@vascotoysMuch love, my friend.
My older brother actually had a copy of that Goku figure from way back when. When I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a very familiar figure, and when you mentioned that it had a snap-on shirt accessory I knew it was definitely that model. Brings so much memories.
Man that's so cool! Thanks for giving the video a watch and for sharing that memory with me.
I love how both chest pieces are still discolored😂
A few people have said that. I really don't see it on the new figure.
💯 yes!! That’s the best version of Goku with his big boulders for shoulders I can hear him saying,
“It’s done…you’re not even a challenge to me anymore.”
I remember these toys vividly. Despite their lack of extensive articulation, they were so damn fun to play with. I had base goku, super saiyan goku, base vegeta, super saiyan vegeta, future trunks, perfect cell, broly, super saiyan teen gohan, super saiyan adult gohan from movie 10. All great toys.
They were definitley awesome for the time! I have very fond memories of them from my childhood. Thanks for watching the video and leaving me this comment.
Battle damage SSJ1 is THE Goku I always picture in my head.
seeing them side by side is sooo insane. towards the end of last year i've been finally taking notice of the sh figuarts lines of figures...and i think i'm finally fully converted. that new goku looks amazing
I totally agree! It's crazy to see how far things have come. If you get one in hand I think you'll be even more impressed. I love my Dragon Ball Z SH Figuarts collection!
@@vascotoys I agree I currently have the S.H.Figuarts Bardock,Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta and Super Saiyan Full Power Broly and they are well worth the amount I spent for them
Bro you convinced me to buy my first ever Figure 😮
Yesssss! I think you're going to love it, Leonardo.
Now we have SH Figuarts level stuff.
I remember my little brother showing me pictures of this guy a few months ago and I remember thinking to myself, this is the toy I wish I had as a kid! I love this figure so much and it's what Jumpstarted my SH figuarts collection! I love this toy!!
Yes! If we had this figure as kids it would have blown our minds. 🤯
Your reaction when having the Goku in your hands was like my reaction when I first held the S.H. Figuarts Raid On Onigashima Luffy in my hands
That's awesome, I absolutely love this thing. Probably the most excited I have ever been to open something.
@@vascotoysexactly like that's the feeling when you get your hands on one of these
Can you please review S.H. Figuarts Luffy Raid On Onigashima?
@@kaiju_boi9 I'm really glad you liked this review and want to see me review another figure. I only really review a figure when I have a strong connection to the character or a ton of excitement about it. I don't have that kind of connection to One Piece or Luffy, so I don't think the review would be very good.
@@vascotoys I've only seen one episode of Dragon Ball but I really want you to review the S.H. Figuarts Goku Black. I like Godzilla and seeing Godzilla's new Evolved form just reminded me of Super Saiyan Rose, so can you please try to review Goku Black? Thanks for reading this!
Aside from the few quality toy companies, I feel the toy figure industry died a long time ago. It's nowhere near as prevalent in terms of quality and direction as it once was. Most Target and Walmart toys are pretty much glorified happy meal toys😢
It is sad to see the toys made for children are so lackluster at this point. I think you are spot on. The companies making collectibles are doing amazing things, but toys intended for children leave a lot to be desired these days.
Best review of this guy. I also bit the bullet and ordered two for the same reason.
He is still in my pile of loot at bbts and i can't wait to get him.
Your personal history with DBZ toys made this review. Subbed.
It is so cool to hear that and I sincerely appreciate it. I very rarely do figure reviews, but I was just so excited for this that I had to film a review.
The way you feel about this Goku is how I feel about the SHF second form Frieza since I used to have the Irwin figure when I was a kid. That’s always been my favorite form for Frieza he looks so cool.
Second form Frieza is SO COOL! I totally get it. Thanks for watching.
the irwin line releases were always absolute kino or pure arse, i still have my giant ssj goku he's got a strong presence on my shelf still to this day
That's awesome that you still have the giant SSJ Goku! Thanks for watching the video.
I had that first Goku you showed. I traded a bunch of stuff with a friend to get that Goku. Absolutely loved that figure played with it constantly. I kept it hidden under my bed because I didn’t want my parents to know I traded so much for it. One night the dog slept under my bed and destroyed that Goku figure. I was devastated. Just seeing that in your vid brought back so many memories.
Ahhhh man, I'm sorry it got ruined by the dog! I'm glad the video helped bring back your fun childhood memories of the figure, though. Thanks for watching my video.
“Ultra powered up version” had me
I appreciate you watching!
Glad that you had nostalgia making this!
(0:17) Whoo, he is so BUFF! He puts S.S.4 Gokou to shame.
The original Bandai versions were called "The Super Battle Collection" if you still want to find them. The gold haired versions were what we all wanted as kids and I actually have the entire Super Battle Collection. While I was in the Army I bought every figure in the original box. Every one I wished I had when I was younger. OP will probably not see this comment but if you have a twitter account I could send you a picture of the whole collection. I'll always prefer the OGs.
@Kelnurok good info and I did see the comment for sure. I actually just came out with the second video in this series where I bought a sealed Super Battle Collection Vegeta and compared it to it's SH Figuarts counterpart. Just posted it yesterday if you want to check it out.
I love that era of dragon ball Z so much, including the art style of those early sagas. Goku was suuuuuper jacked and the figure looks just like how he did in the show. A diorama set up of him standing over cut-in-half frieza would be so dope.
Thanks for checking this out! I totally agree. Figuarts us coming out with the 100% Frieza later this year and I will be for sure making dioramas for he and Goku to battle in.
This video was so much fun. Well done
Thank you 🙏 I'm really glad you enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun to make.
Those super battle collection figures are my childhood, the first one I got was that kid gohan, and I had so much fun with them.
I loved that Gohan figure as a kid! Thanks for checking out the video.
I was thinking about getting this figure and after watching this review, I really really want that figure now thank you😁
I'm so glad to hear the video helped you decide. Enjoy it!
dude! this video is phenomenal, from the thumbnail. to premise and great editing and script. bravo!
Thank you Rocco! Thanks for always encouraging me. As you know, I really try to get better every time I make a video and I am so glad to see people have decided to watch this one.
I know you
Rocco wow I'm subbed to you😂
I used to have so many of those little Dragon Balls from when I was a kid. I've moved multiple times since the early 2000s, even to a different state, and still to this day, I find them in the most random places. They somehow always find a way to follow me through a move lol
That's amazing! I remember having like a drawer full of them as a kid. They were everywhere!
I had that original Goku too. I remember always wishing the arms bent.
Same here! Thanks for watching the video.
Funny thing is I used to have ssj Goku and ssj Trunks with sword when I was maybe 6yo in 1993 or something, but had no idea about DBZ at all. Years after it was shown in CN here in Europe and still some years after the show (lost action figures somewhere unfortunately) I realized where those figures were from lol
That's so interesting! I bet when you finally saw the show it was a mind-blowing type of experience. Awesome!
This is super cool man! I'm super glad you shared this one with us! I really really want one of these now haha
Hey thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and want the figure. As you can probably tell, it is one of my favorites.
I just got mine this week, and it's definitely #1 in my collection
Where’d you get it? I’ve been wanting this figure for a long time
@@luhgarf I bought mine at Toy Arena for $80 dollars
Yes! It's such a good figure. So glad they put this out.
Damn i had that SSJ Goku figure. There was one with metallic golden hair too that was sick
Very cool! Yes, that was the Bandai version, I believe.
Rare to see toys/games in such good condition. Most children I know absolutely destroy their game consoles and toys when they're kids by taking horrible care of them me included.
Thanks! I do wish I hadn't lost the pop off shirt piece, but otherwise am happy with the condition of something so old.
The very first one I had was the Super Collection Trunks back then in the 90s. I still remember how I couldn't get the Goku (which is the SS Namek Arc ver.) and was kinda bummed about it. I think I also had the Vegeta too. The only thing that was movable was their arms and that was it. They're pretty much like a Sofubi. (vinyl toys)
Oh very cool, I never had that Trunks but always thought he looked cool. Yeah, the articulation was almost non existent back then. Thanks for watching and for sharing your toy memory with me.
@@vascotoys Not at all! Thank you for making such an awesome review!
The new figure is basically how we saw the old figure back in the day
Yes, exactly!
I have this figure. It really is awesome especially growing up with the original. I wish that the extra hair was the OG manga Super Saiyan Hair from the first exclusive release of this figure.
Awesome! It really is a great figure. Interesting thought on the hair. I hadn't really thought of that as an option for this, but could be cool. I do really like the hair sculpts we got though.
I remember that figure. One of my favorites. I collected from '00-'03. Idk remember how many I had but the only ones I wasn't allowed to have was kid trunks. The models back then were damn cool also.
Yes. These figures were awesome to grow up playing with!
Totally remember those old DBZ figures. I had a few of them. This same Goku and Golden Haired Gogeta were two of my favorite. I remember the Beckett Dragon Ball Z Collectors magazine had a check list of all of them and it was my dream to collect them all some day. Sadly i only had about 6 or 7.
SS Goku
Golden Hair Gogeta
Black Hair Vegito
Fat Buu
Saiyan Saga Vegeta
Cell Saga SS Trunks
I feel like I also had SS3 Goku but that couldve just been the next one I wanted on the list
Oh awesome! I definitley didn't have the Gogeta or the Buu. Thanks for sharing this with me!
wow this figure is actually beautiful, gonna get this myself!
Yes! It's really an incredible piece for any collector that enjoys the dragon ball franchise. Glad you are picking one up!
Man They have really changed Great video man!!! 👊
@fredwilliams9695 thank you 🙏
@vasco toys you can order 3d printed custom parts, such as goku tanktop for the completion of your toy
Honestly, seeing someone that passion gives me a smile, i know that sigh of satisfaction at 4:14, thats the sigh u make when ur truly happy n excited lol
Thank you for saying that! That figure is something I have been waiting to get really since I was a kid. I was truly excited and I am glad that came through in the video.
@@vascotoys i can totally see it, and i had the same toy u had back then i had goku, vegeta n freiza. It was so cool, but i lost freiza's tail cuzi it was too fun to spin his tail as a kid lol
That's insane, reminds me of how i still have my 4Kids era Monkey D. Luffy figure from when i was a kid, but recently got the post timeskip Luffy figure by the "Anime Heroes" figure line.
funny enough thanks to Anime Heroes i was finally able to get a Kurosaki Ichigo action figure, since as a kid they only had Goku, Naruto, and Luffy because Bleach was on Adult Swim so it didn't have toys.
so now i finally have The Big 3 and their predecesor, Goku! lol.
Love hearing stories about collecting. Thanks for sharing this one with me and for taking the time to watch my video.
That original goku figure is from 1991. It's from the Super Battle Collection made in japan, and later China.
Yes! But I purchased it in 1999 in a KB Toys. I mentioned these were re-releases of figures previously released by Bandai. Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment.
That Irwin Goku Is A Classic ❤ & You Kept It In Great Shape. 👍 🔥
Thank you! Glad I was able to hold onto it!
there was a 2005 Bandai line that was the best imo. some even came in black and white. got a bunch still somewhere lol. Adult Gohan, Vegito, SSJ3 Goku
I know exactly what you are talking about! I forget the name of the line, but those figures were legit.
That is actually crazy how far these figs have come! The old ones look like bootlegs compared to the new ones!
Totally, Jack! The new figures are really amazing. Thanks for watching.
@@vascotoys I agree!
I have SS Goku, Piccolo, Frieza, and Kid Trunks from the Irwin line. Those were always my favorite line of DBZ toys just out of nostalgia. I could never find SS3, but wanted it so bad. lol
Very cool! These figures were such a huge part of my childhood. Always glad to talk with someone else who enjoyed them too. Thanks for watching.
Oh my god you could grind meat on that....
Got to love some 90's style Goku
90s style Goku is the BEST!
Single bang hair looks awesome. It gives me Super Saiyan 2 vibes.
Yes I agree! Thanks for checking this out.
Quality action figure 100%. Dragon Ball Z always has the best figurines from what I remembered as a kid. But naw these action figures are incredible nowadays. This video made me consider collecting now that I'm older.
Thanks for the comment and for watching the video! That's cool that the video made you want to collect again.
I still have that damn Ssj Goku from when I was a kid lmao it was my first Godzilla action figure. I still have the shirt snap on too.
Very cool! I wish I still had the shirt accessory, but that is long gone for me.
I wonder if action figure designers in the future will find a way to hide the joints on figures under a "skin" of sorts that it both durable and affordable to create. I think it would make this so much better.
I'm sure they will find ways to continually improve them. There is a Dragon Ball Z line made by Bandai that was seamless joints. The figures are 8" tall.
Great video!!! The new Sh Figuarts Ssj Goku is perfect, it is astonishingly amazing, a true masterpiece ❤ I sure hope I can get him. And also nice story about your Irwin Toys Ssj Goku, I know what was like having a very special toy back then ❤
Thanks so much! Glad you liked the video and appreciate the support.
I had to do my brothers chores to play with his toys
Oh man! So I guess I wasn't the only older brother abusing his imaginary authority over his younger siblings? Thanks for watching and for sharing.
Crazy how the discoloured chest issue still persists 😂😂
It's unfortunate and that does need to be fixed. Idk if it is an on-camera thing versus an in-hand thing or the fact that I was so excited, but I didn't notice it on mine.
@@vascotoys
In hand it looks like more of a finish issue than a colour issue.
I had so many of these as a kid I brought them in a backpack to daycare one day like 30 figures.... They got stolen. I'm salty to this day about it.
Ohhhhh man that is rough! I don't blame you for being salty.
if you take the body of the old Irwin goku, it would be cool to customize it to fit the dragon ball evolved heads, gives you more options and all that, ssj, ssjb, UI, mui and so forth
That's an interesting idea. Do you think the Evolve heads are the right size? I think they may be too small to fit on the Irwin bodies. Also the Irwin heads are fixed on the body, so it might be hard to remove those.
@vascotoys the heads are pretty much in scale
However you would have to add a balljoint at the head with some clay
Since the irwin heads move at the middle of the neck
@@MUIZILLASAURUS_REX gotcha! I've actually never customized a figure before. I don't think I have the guts to try something like that 🤣
Wow. This figure is amazing. I have the original gen 1 version and LSSJ Z Broly. I might have to get this guy somehow. Subscribed.
Appreciate the sub and the comment! If you like DBZ, you should try and get this new Goku for sure.
DBZ's original Toonami run did start in 1996. The issue is that the series would constantly play over and over from the Saiyan to Ginyu saga until 1999 once Funimation got the full rights to dub the show in-house.
That's right! Thanks for reminding me. Appreciate you checking out the video.
No, Dragon Ball Z did not start broadcasting on Toonami until August 1998. The show was originally aired in syndication on the Saban Kid's Network beginning in 1996. Cartoon Network picked up the show and re-ran the first 53 episodes where it found a bigger audience and ultimately led to FUNimation dubbing more episodes.
Just posed mine up on the shelf he was worth the wait for sure now for the buff Frieza.
Yessssss! I am so excited we are getting that figure. Having that Frieza with this Goku is going to be the centerpiece of my collection. I'm going to have to make a Diorama to recreate that battle between them.
dang KB Toy Store was the best. I was heartbroken as a kid when they left Omaha
Yes! I miss KB Toys so much.
@@vascotoys I remember as a kid I bought the Faces of Sting action figure set from there. It was my last purchase before they left Omaha.
I loved that OGGoku figure too, but my fav was the Vol 21 Gogeta i got for my 10th bday in 2000
Oh I don't think I had that one! Very cool. Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment.
isnt it weird how in their own commercial from the 1:25 mark of this video, they morph from a screenshot of the show to a picture of the action figure and you can see the proportions in the face are completely different. you would think somebody would say "oh no we screwed up, we can't release it like this." but they didn't. it's almost like they didn't even use pictures from the show as references.
Yes, it seems like a losing proposition the way they decided to show it in the commercial. But I guess at the time, they thought it looked good?
I want a updated version of battle damaged Vegeta from the frieza saga. Think any character from that period is the peak versions in design.
I totally agree! I want SH Figuarts to make the version of namek Vegeta where he is in the Saiyan armor without the pauldrons. I'm sure they'll get to that eventually, but we really are in need of a battle damaged Vegeta. They've never made any battle damaged version of Vegeta.
I used to make my kids wash their hands before playing with my Star Wars toys and any of our gaming consoles. 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 so you know the drill...
Man that 1996 SSJ goku was my first DBZ figure. My big brother got it for me In 99. I've still got the front of his shirt but my brothers friend lost the back of it about 20 years ago 😭😭😭
Ahhhhh Idk about you but as an adult collector I take really good care of accessories because of how frequently I lost them as a kid. Thanks for checking this out and leaving me a comment.
@vascotoys Haha same man! Evert figure I've purchased in adulthood has never seen the outside of the box apart from a couple duplicates I've received as gifts lol. No doubt man you got a new sub loving the content 💯
@@DBZdude95 that means a lot. Thanks for the support
This is easily my favorite figuarts Goku in a long time
Yes!!! Totally agree. Thanks for watching the video.
i think what is more great with today's technology is the movability / number of articulated joints
Yes! I love the articulation of these modern figures.
@@vascotoys I actually have the base goku, base trunks, ssj gohan (picollo outfit) and broly legendary ssj hehe. when i was young i was already amazed with just movable shoulders :D
FINALLY someone that f KNOWS what hes talking about, someone that recognizes what part of the anime the action figure belongs to. The Yelling face is when frieza says that hes going to kill goku like he did to his friend, refering to krillin, at that time goku yells and powers up, and that face is that exact moment
Yes! What an important moment that they captured with that face plate. I'm really glad you liked the video and I appreciate you leaving me this comment.
when you opened the goku it sent shivers down my spine and i said"golly thats looks so cool" - trg the relaxed gamer sinceraly
Thanks TRG! That was such a cool moment for me. I'm really glad that I decided to do this video so I could capture that moment. Appreciate you watching.
