the arm popping off is just a reference to his master gohan.
☠️
🤣
Hilarious!
Lol straight up slaying there
I see why bandai did that ☠️
finally, someone who doesnt just glaze the figure and actually talks abt pros AND cons
Just doing my job
@@AnthonysCustomsye I still don’t really listen to the bad parts anyways cause I’m not really picky not hating you
7:11 I always love those 'we'll get to that..' moments lol
I think they’re trying to re-scale the figures based on the 3.0 mold, maybe that’s why this Trunks is so big. I’m still waiting for a Great Ape Vegeta type of figure for Max Cell.
It's like Bandai's design philosophy for DB Figuarts right now is "Let's make aesthetic-destroying design decisions that don't even help the articulation, and hope people assume it actually is helping the articulation and we are geniuses."
That giant jacket gap, broken arm, and hip design is a 100% deal breaker for a $70 figure. Trunks is my second favorite, and the only way I add this to my collection is if a free one falls into my lap lol
Really getting tired of sh figuarts quality control issues ever since theu switched to Vietnamese factories. Which is a shame because the sculpts and designs are better than ever! I hope they fix this issue soon because its already been a couple years of the crappy Vietnamese qc.
The broken arm, sure. The other two? Deal breaking? Definitely not.
A 9 that was quality controlled down to a 7. Its extremely unfortnate how many issues ive seen with so many collectors trunks figure.
I think trunks is 5'7 and goku is 5'9 idk how that scales in the figures but I think he looks alright height wise. The way he looks in the bojack movie is my favourite look for him.
He looks like a fine height for post time chamber Trunks, he’s definitely too tall for first appearance Trunks imo, not outrageously though, you can definitely make it work with the newer figures.
I was thinking since they included the other SS hair, this could have technically been trunks after the cell games when he killed 17/18.
Since he did grow in the hyperbolic time chamber.
I think its annoying how inconsistent this line has become. One release is prestine and the next is just terrible. Perhaps tamashii is trying to help all these 3rd party manufacturers stay afloat, cause you know someone is going to make a better jacket for this Trunks
There's also another problem with this figure that's hard to notice: the lower part of the torso is backwards.
If you check the promo pictures you can see these two wrinkles tucked inside his pants on his back are supposed to be on the front.
Thanks man! I just turned it round and it stopped the looseness of the torso. Just a shame about his legs now.
@@philmicklewright1508 Glad to be of help! Yeah, latest figuarts seem to have a lot of looseness/wobbly issues :/
He looks like you slightly widened him in photoshop
Nope, he T H I C C
Having Trunk's head power down after Darwin kicked it off was good attention to detail.
Those pictures at the end were hilarious😂🤣
Who would have thought that "Made in Vietnam" would make "Made in China" come to mean high quality?
I didn't notice that ugly gap on the back of the jacket and I'm worried about the QC issues that many people are having with him. I might cancel my pre-order.
With super hero gohan, it seems like the whole line is starting a new scale with the sayians
No. He's still tall side by side with Super Hero Gohan. The Super Hero Gohan is the same scale with previous Goku/Gohan figures.
@@DragonRoyZ really? ive always thought gohan to be gokus height or very slightly taller but the new gohan is pretty big
@@Mr_Ultimate It's not big. Maybe the arms and neck. But it is the same height. I have these figures.
Maybe its cause bojack was one of the first pieces of dbz media i saw, but the black shirt, sleeveless jacket, and long hair is my favorite look for trunks
GOT DAMN was this one of the most fair figure reviews I’ve seen lol I wanna give it an 8 or 9 but couldn’t lol
I thought Bandai couldn't butcher a good figure with bad QC worse than the Spy X Family Loid Forger. But Trunks *easily* beats him in that regard. The legs are bad enough but the floppy torso just kills any fun factor for me. Even with the weird design decisions, if the QC was better, he'd be one of my favourite figures of the year. But as it stands, the only reason I'm keeping him is because it's Trunks in this look.
Completely agree I can deal with the other issues by the legs ruin any fun at all
The thing is the vegeta figure who is cheaper is way better and released at the same time its due to the fact bandai decided to manufacture the figures in vietnam and all of those vietnam figures have TERRIBLE qc
As someone who has the retail release of that Gohan, the first thought that went through my mind when that arm popped off was "oh god, not again." Thought that with all the QC issues lately we were still a least beyond *that* but apparently not. Been hearing mixed things about other QC issues, but if the arm really does pop off on all of them, then god... what a bummer.
From what I am seen it is universal. I got mine yesterday and I immediately checked it and was bummed also the wobbly legs are bad
Yep its on all of them. Some youtubers will try to pass it off as nothing but its all of them.
Yup, I just got mine today, same issues.
My trunks had all the same issues. Floppy hips, arm popping off, and the waist a little looser than it should be. Would be a 10/10 for me otherwise
The jacket is a deal breaker. For someone who would like to have the entire DBFighterZ cast in figuarts form, tamashii makes it very easy to pass up on that idea.
Ong they do that to much or they make it a event exclusive
@@quintonbrooks7536 I generally hate exclusives. I feel like those figures should be available for everyone to buy.
@@sempai4056 Agree with you SIr.
@@sempai4056 fr especially the ones that been event exclusive for like 2 or 3 years samething with p bandie some of those should be re release as regular
Every reviewer I've seen has all the same QC issue. Whoever is in charge of QC at the Vietnam factory is or should get fired. Like I'd get a few having the issue or being random, but it's extremely consistent, so someone had to have known and still okayed it...
GT Trunks despite how poorly that show treated him.
Assuming they make him King Cold's going to have to be huge to scale properly with this Trunks. I'm going to laugh if they make King Cold the same height as second form Frieza which would scale terribly with this Trunks. Knowing Tamashii that's probably what they're going to do.
"It's so floppy, loose and annoying"
That's what she said 😊
Got this figure for a week, just tried ONE gentle pose: then the leg at the swivel part just fell. The metal screw of one of the ball joint is not "biting" anymore the plastic thread. Next rime I ll treat myself a nice box of suppositories instead of buying bandai dbz figures.
How would you compare this one to the XenoVerse Trunks SHF and the DBS Future Trunks SHF?
I want to say this release probably has the most QC issues of any figure in the line within least 5 years. unfortunately you are right there is a ton of simping for this figure just because it's this version of trunks with the sword, and it does look pretty awesome especially compared to that decades+ one.
I'm going to hope DF makes this figure. Not sure I can justify 70+ for this much QC problems.
Honestly i hope so too. But DF needs to get their shit together first cause they been slacking
Maybe DF will make a different version of Trunks but definitely not this Trunks after it just came out lol.
I suppose its a good thing you've tempered my expectations now rather than be disappointed when my figure arrives.
Watching on my phone, it looked like the plastic at the end if the peg in the arm had stress marks as if there was a ball at the end that had been ripped off.
Im still looking forward to getting him I just know what to expect now. Thanks.
The peg isn't broken or missing anything. Just not produced very well
@@AnthonysCustoms well no excuse then. Thanks for getting back to me.
thank you anthony for pointing out good and bad stuff of this trunks, I know you don't do model kit reviews that much but hoping one of these days you review the Figure rise standard goku new spec version.
Great review. I remember when you did the comparison years ago between the Figure-rise Mechanics Time Machine model kit and the Trunks figure from SH Figuarts line, and it didn't scale well. Do you think this new mold should solve that problem?
Not likely. Still pretty different in size
I only watched Dragon Balls a few times when I was a kid but I always liked this guy best because of his weird purple haircut.
Did you have to rotate the abdomen section around cause I swear mine came put together backwards an I've seen other people talk about the same issue curious if its all of them or just some were put together wrong.
I don't think mine was backward
I decided to cancel my pre-order of this. My trunks is really the longer haired bare arms Trunks, but as a new DBZ Figuarts collector I just wanted a Trunks on my shelf. Still, I don't think this will be it. I can wait longer hopefully for a Trunks that is more my style. Thanks for letting us know of the issues.
Hey if you’re still looking for a trunks tonsen art toys is making one, it’s a high quality 3rd party, and runs around the same price, with more accessories.
@@johndelgado8709 I have been following his version of lonng hair and ripped jacket "Bojack trunks" let's hope it is a good one because that makes me excited.
now that i got this figure idont care what everyone is saying
this figure is awesome
and its partly due to trunks design
he already looked really cool
I cannot for the life of me understand why they chose to make the hips this way. Literally could have simply looked like any other 3.0 figure but nope. Ughh
I wonder if they are going to start upscaling all their new figures. It only sucks because now the old figures are going to look like shrimps next to the new molds.
The jacket and joint issues are disgusting. Seriously considering canceling my preorder. Wanted this figure too
My favorite Future Trunks designs are definitely anyone with long hair, but yes, both Broly and Bojack movie Trunks are always top of my list along with Saiyan Armor Super Saiyan Trunks with his hair out
Question of the day: I like just about any version that isn’t the super version. Even the dorky GT outfit.
Man, I am not so stoked for this figure when mine arrives. Still happy I didn’t bite the bullet and buy the old version for whatever he’s going for.
About the height thing I don't completely agree because he's that big by the end of the cell stuff when he goes back to the Future to kill 17,18, and Cell but technically had a different Super Saiyan hairstyle so I guess you're kind of right
Favorite version of Trunks would be Future Trunks with the long hair and the jacket like when he came out of the hyperbolic time chamber
Great review! Thanks for noting all the problems!
Great review, I was gonna get it anyways but the other review I've seen over Looked issues because of hype
Good review. So as someone who loves Trunks,, kept the Super version and kept like 10/12 Dragon Ball SHF figs (I boxed up the figures and have a few Banprestos to rep DB instead) I'm tempted to get it, might make him a desk figure but maybe wait for a sale? But I can do with a $30 Banpresto....
my main cons for my one of this figure are the bobble head and the loose joints
I'm going to preorder 3.0 ssj Goku hopefully he doesnt have any qc issues 🙏
Love this figure, just wish Tamashii would fix their QC issues and add more paint/shading to their figures again.
My favorite version of Trunks is the one I have in my collection, long haired in the battle armor (blue). Thanks for the review
Which Goku is that in the size comparison? I am torn between Super Hero and From Earth version because of the cool Noodle eating face and accessories! 😩
Sroe
I actually do this thing with my dragonball figures where I make them taller by pulling the upper torso up on the joint as far as it’ll go without coming off. So Trunks being this big doesn’t bother me and I actually like it
So not only do you not mind the incorrect scaling.. but you like it? What has happened to this community lol.
Also trucks is not just taller.. hes physically bigger in every way. Your “solution” does nothing but make ur figures look weird.
@@Forty3Snakes It’s not that deep, they’re action figures, they’re meant for fun, if he has fun with it and doesn’t mind then who cares, stop being so dramatic lol
@@yumdeliciouspancakes ikr
@@Forty3Snakes damn, that’s crazy… if only I cared what some rando in the comments thought about my shit. It looks good to me. And hes not even bigger in every way their bodies are about the same size. And I always wanted the dragonball figures to be bigger anyway, so this is a step in the right direction and witch my little trick, the heights line up better
Is this Trunks when he was introduced or trunks when he went home? When he qent home the first time he was older, thicker, stronger and he cut his hair back to this shortness.
The Super Saiyan head sculpt and side-glancing eyes are referencing his fight with Mecha Frieza, when he first arrives to the future. This Trunks is far too tall for that
Even in the manga when he went back home he wasn't this big
The 1.0 figure was as tall as Vegeta, this figure is taller, but not as tall as Goku, so the canonical height of Trunks, which is 5’7. Vegeta’s 5’5 and Goku is 5’9, trunks is smack dab in the middle, he scales well.
Pretty much agree 100 here. Personally love the figure, but objectively the problems really bother me and it does seem universal. Also Idk why they went with that thigh cut design, they really shouldve just followed the same design as superhero Gohan. On top of the fact that the Vietnam factory qc stuff is awful.
Right out of the box he's just wiggly, but superhero Gohan is solid, moves well and even had a better finish on the clothing.
I really like Trunks hair on this fig. I’m curious how people store all the extra hands in their collections.
i keep the hands and accessories in the box and keep the boxes on my desy
@@jbethel5772 I must have more boxes, I wouldn't be able to see my desk 😅
I was really excited for this trunks and I am happy with the in hand product. But the QC issues bother me much and the high thigh swivels are really off putting.
Dude my Trunks figures left leg (my left) broke off after a couple of months of having him but since his left kneecap and his right arm fell off I just gave up on him and just to let you know his bottom ab crunch is backwards not to mention he has very loose legs and at least on my copy he had loose arms not in the elbows though I think it was somewhere in the shoulders, and I got something on mine that isn't really a QC issue but his ab crunch was really squeaky and would almost studder so it would be very annoying to move.
I believe this Trunks is taken from when he comes back to the future after the cell games, he spent an entire year with Vegeta in the HyperBolic Time Chamber, and when he returns even Future Bulma notices that he has grown older and taller.
It's so weird to me that he's such a popular character. Outside of his introduction and his outro in the original series, he really didn't do anything.
He had a jacket and a sword lol and 90s style hair
He killed or prevented almost every major antagonist in some way. Killed Frieza, 17, 18, two versions of cell and prevented Majin Buu. He gets shit DONE
Cant wait to see $120 metal cooler QC paintjob in few months 🙃
I just got the reissue version of this and all the QC issues are fixed. Do you think you'll get the reissue version?
What reissue are you talking about?
I just looked. Nothing says it's any different than the original release. Wonder if it's universal or if you just got lucky
The reason I got it was because I heard the reissue fixed the QC issues. This is what I've heard on reddit though, so I can't sayfor sure.@@AnthonysCustoms
@@AnthonysCustomsit is universal. it was up on premium bandai for a short while and i sold my old one because the new one is pretty much perfect. the left arm is fixed. the legs no longer wobble and they move smoothly while holding their position. bottom torso was in the correct position and the sword sheath doesnt come off as easily. one of his bangs that was covering up an eye was also moved slightly to not cover up his eye i'm assuming. you should try to get your hands on the reissue, it's worth it
I'm waiting for this to go on sale I like trunks and I might do a qc fix with crazy glue
trunks is a character no matter how shitty the figure is objectively, i still love it. it's hard to admit, but this figure is quite badly done
So I got this figure and his sword shed wouldn’t stay on so I exchanged it for another at my store that sells them and guess what? I got one with arm problem like yours now. And paint on the sword had scratches. Big let down for me.
I started tweaking when I couldnt get the sword buckle on the sheath
The size and height don't really bother me. I can interpret him as a later Trunks, not first arrival Trunks, and iirc, the anime had 6 animators each with their own style and one made everyone bulkier with squarer features, so I can accept it. The jacket gap is rough, but all the looseness is a beating. Wonder what the chances of that getting worked out with later runs or if this is just it
the QC issues go crazy today.
Happy I have the original one.
If you wanted to get really comical, you shoulda compared him to the original Android figures. They’re so tiny compared to the new Trunks it’s ridiculous.
Yeah
I would be confident enough to say that he scales pretty well for a trunks after the hyperbolic time chamber/bojack trunks
yeah in terms of looks, i think hes great, definitely a bit tall, being too close to goku, but as long as hes somewhere between goku and vegeta i think thats alright. After all we all know how EXTREMELY CONSISTENT Toriyama and dragon balls art is
Hahaha so true. In the manga characters sizes are all over the place.
The jacked thing might been made because they plan to release the bojack look or the jacketless look of trunks might be.. don't know.
Figure looks awesome tho.. just like you said an effect part 1 blast or slash effect would have been great.
When do we get a tank top trunks?
I recently moved to another country so I sold most of DBZ figuarts except for Broly and because of this I don’t really mind if he is too big. I’m almost certain that they will remake a newer and bigger version of at least Vegeta and Goku. If that is the case then I would gladly get them.
theyre rescaling the figures chill damn
Kinda to late rescale. They already have so many figures released
I keep waiting for a Dragon Stars version of this Trunks. And yes DBZ future Trunks with the jacket is my fav look for him.
He has child bearing hips.
Noooo, what have they done to the jacket?!
Omnistore hasn’t shipped mine yet but the QC issues are a bummer. Still getting him because I do feel my OJ Trunks just needs an upgrade. I never got the Sayian Armor Trunks or the Super Trunks and I am not gonna pay 3rd party price for them.
I have seen others say this is more based on the FighterZ game, which does make a lot of sense scale wise. Hoping that DF or Kong take a stab at his version. DF has been pretty slacking lately but honestly the Ultra SEgo Vegeta Kong put out is an incredible figure. I’d like to see a Trunks from them.
The FighterZ argument fails to consider they've released figures from the game before and it said so on the box. This says Dragon Ball Z.
Are you gonna review the Mafex Nightwing, Ant?
I was but idk. Seems underwhelming
i don't see why they could've just use the jacket from the first trunks figure. and yeah the thigh cuts is getting weird. i would just do a head swop or kitbashing this trunks with the 1.0 trunks
They might have combine him with post rost trunks who got a growth spurt and put on mass vs just doing first appearance trunks.
Can’t wait til you review Jada Toys Ryu and Fei Long 🔥
What stands do u use for the figures
tamashii nations act 4
@@AnthonysCustoms Ight bet thx
I like the way you make your reviews. The figure is a bit to tall in comparison to the other figures from SH Figuarts. Can you tell me if you bought all your figures or do you receive them from a company for the reviews? if yes, when does it started? do you needed a certain number of subscribers? I'm producing a complete stop motion series with those figures. Feel free to click. I'm glad hearing from you:D
Unrelated question but are you going to review the storm collectables balrog at some point in the future?
As soon as it comes in
The arm issue is bad bc everyone has it. Really annoys me
This is also my favorite look for Trunks, who is also my favorite Dragon Ball character!
I was actually kinda dreading this release as soon as I saw it was using the new style of legs, and now with the confirmation that it's being done by the Vietnam factories, which means QC issues... like, yeah, I'm still gonna get it, but man what a letdown.
The way they did the jacket is also horrendous. Really hoping a customizer or third party company can make a replacement for it because I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
“We’ll get to that”
the way the back of the jacket looks is weird
the way the hip and upper leg area looks and how it was designed is insane
and now that they gave us such a great looking color for the super saiyan hair...I can't wait for them to never use it again haha because that's something they would do
Can we just get a video with just funny Darwin poses with other figures?
Overengineering is one of the big problem with SHF
Im probably gonna glue the arm joint permanent so it doesnt pop off
tbh he's pretty accurate to that goku fig according to a height comparison website lol
A height comparison website? What's the link
I think it really sucks that the old trunks figures had a sword hilt instead of sheathing the whole sword. Definitely a downgrade in that regard
I think his height is fine, slightly shorter than Goku and slightly taller than Vegeta figuarts which is how he is in the anime and official height numbers in the DB Super Exciting Guide
I still have the very first one that they released and still prefer that one over the 12 different ones they've released.
Thanks for the review, Anthony! You pretty much hit on some of the issues this new figure has and other things you pointed that i agree too.
I still enjoy this figure sice there's also good things but do wish the bad things were less than more.
09:55 to 10:25…. What on earth is that jacket about?
From the front, it looks amazing.
Then you pointed out the back… and I felt offended by that design…
This is one of the first “normal” sized Z-fighter I’ve seen I’ve actually wanted as it looks really well done to the source material. The colour for the super Saiyan hair, is the best I’ve seen.
It’s a shame there isn’t a half smiling face like he does when he tells Freeza,
“Goku wasn’t the only super Saiyan,”
I think the height to Goku figure is ok, but the head proportions is off. I think they need to increase Gokus dimensions as with most of the adult line as they are too small.
Trunks should look smaller as he is a teen compared to an adult Goku.
As a solo figure, this works better on its own.
This is a potential future buy.
Canceling my pre-order rn after seeing the arm issue
