ruskiiVFaussie Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 (edited) http://www.hlj.com/product/MEDRAH-375 Questions for the peeps who have RAH figures... are they cool? No doubt Vegeta is next. I want a decent poseable figure of Veg. Any pics of previous/existing RAh figures with under clothes muscle build? These figs that have the removeable clothing kick arse for final battle poses with blood and stuffs! Can they do proper Haduken/kameyhameyha hand positions? (sure in the pic it can do that one part of the kameyhameyha but can he complete the 4-3 parts of the move? Any info if they would have the Super Saiyan golden hair head swap? Suck if they didn't.

Sam Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 very cool are the RAH's! very poseable, gets the closet I would imagine other than using the dragonballl hybrid figs, which are cool but totally fragile. Big time wanted this, but thought it sucked that 'super saiyan hair' Goku was a sep figure, and not an extra head. DOH. best looking fig of him that i have ever seen, cheapest i have seen it online was like 115 USD or something... So Santa, if ur listening, my list is getting bigger !! hehe Quote

So Santa, if ur listening, my list is getting bigger !! hehe yeah i have alot of the Hybrids figs! Very cool but you are correct they are fiddly but understandably they are VERY small. Really? No saiyan head? That's crap! Losers! Remember the release that had a poseable figure that included normal, super heads and alternate armour as a pack? I can't remember the name, it was before my time when i started collecting but it totally rocked, Vegeta pack had saiyan targetting comp, Ape head and tail and small Goku for diorama purposes. One head though, not going to bother getting first Vege if they pull this on us. Edited April 25, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 (edited) You know what sucks tho, Bandai didn't finish their line of Hybrids, they didn't do Majin Buu Vegeta! Edited April 25, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
Sam Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Yeh, they seemed to have not finished the roster! Im not sure of the line ur referrign to from before, ive only really had like the old Irwin figures that u could take the gi off, but not extra heads.. hmm.. but there has been a LOT of DBZ merchandise over the years ! As for Majin vegeta, just grab the regular and paint on an "M" hehe wha?/? it'll work! trust me ;-) Quote
misterryno Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 HOT DAMN!!! I'm not a huge fan of DB or anything....but that is the $HIT!!! Quote
GogDog Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 I have one preordered and payed for as a present for my roommate. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 yeah, pretty bad ass but too pricey. I mean I buy the other medicom figures all the time, but a dragon ball one? I'm not feelin it as much. Quote

ruskiiVFaussie Posted April 26, 2008 Author Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) fuggin kick ass man. http://www.hobbyfan.com:80/product_info.ph...roducts_id=6404 I'd probably get a SS1 Goku if it came out, it's just too awesome this sculpt. Of course when they bring out Vegeta... SOLD! If anything to nit pick it would be the slight skinny side to the arms. Probably just a funny angle the way the joint is bent i guess.

I agree with you on how awesome this sculpt is...but...even though the feet look VERY accurate I personally wish that they were slightly larger. I mean....they just look kinda funny don't they? Quote

badboy00z Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) His uniform looks pretty good. Doesn't look cheezy at all. Edited April 26, 2008 by badboy00z Quote
GogDog Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 His uniform looks pretty good. Doesn't look cheezy at all. I have not gotten any of the Medicom RAH figures before. I do plan on getting the RAH Motoko, which looks kick-ass. I'm not a huge DBZ fan. I watched most of it (my roommate is a big fan), but I do have a soft spot for Vegeta. If the Goku I got for my roommate is nice and I like the Motoko, I'll probably get a Vegeta. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 The boots always did look a little funny in the anime. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 It's not that "you're not feeling it as much," you're just cheap. Bastid I have a pretty good sized collection of RAH figures, but I am prioritizing my money in other areas right now. So this is not the case of being cheap, but just prioritizing my collection.

misterryno Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 You know what would be AWESOME!?! A RAH Bretai!!! He would be HUGE! Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 1, 2008 Author Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) No f'n way, they have gone too far this time! Mail only order start time pre-order in December??? For what, our Jap bros only? http://www.etoysjapan.com/index.php?page=s...=1&Itemid=1 How hard would it be to release one version with added cost to have both super and non-super Saiyan heads included. >_< Atleast give us the option of buying normally for both versions not a mail only thing! arragghhh! Maybe i'm jumping the gun, maybe it's still gettable through normal channels like hlj.com. *prays* Edited May 1, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote

So what should we believe? Will be a niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice christmas prezzie! Problem is... THEY BOTH LOOK GREAT! lol - http://testicular-fortitude.blogspot.com/2...-goku-poll.html brittle bodies? (2 websites acknowleging the mail away thing now...)

crasis Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 I dunno how much shipping would be to you, but Alter Ego Comics in the US has both of them up for order, courtesy of Sideshow Collectibles distributing them here. Best prices I've seen for them, too: Regular: http://alteregocomics.com/store/catalog/Dr...ure-p-4927.html SS: http://alteregocomics.com/store/catalog/Dr...ure-p-4926.html Quote
GogDog Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) Info: Item can only be preordered by entering the ticket ID with the number taken from the ticket that comes with RAH Son Goku. I thought that was old news. I heard that a couple months ago, assumed everyone else did too. Edited May 1, 2008 by GogDog Quote
cube Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 not sure why people complain about the regular version not having an ss head...you're either going to display it one way or the other...if you want to display it in both modes, you'd need 2 anyways (it's not like people play with these things)...plus the skin tone and outfit are different on the ss version, so it's way more accurate having 2 then just chucking in an extra head. The only heads I'd like to see are a few different facial expressions. either way, the more I see the regular version, the more i obsessively want to get it..the price though :/ Quote
GogDog Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 You are a REALLY NICE roomie!!! Can I be your roomie too?!? Well, he's a good guy, and I always eat his food, so I feel bad. Quote

I was able to get one from sideshow for 130. I wonder why they have the SS goku for so much more now. but yeah, SS goku looks pretty bad ass. That I might consider buying.... Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 2, 2008 Author Posted May 2, 2008 Well i wanted SS Goku most of all, and the mail thing wasn't known to me, just stating it sucks... and it does. But yeah, now i'm leaning more towards the non SS Goku more now. So whats this talk about poor plastics and brittleness? Anyone can vouch for the joints and such? Quote
Beware of Blast Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Medicom is the Yamato of the 1/6 figure makers. Their figures offer the best poses compared to other 1/6 figure companies... but like Yamato, they choose to become retards when it comes to using sturdy materials where they matter most. Quote
Beware of Blast Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 If it's any consolation... the breakages at the points of articulation do happen but the Medicoms aren't exactly a certain transforming toy where I get so much doubt about it's first releases. With careful handling, most of my Medicom collection are still intact today - I have 8 pieces. At least one thing better about Medicom over Yamato for me at least, it's that the headsculpts, the 1/6 clothing & the attention to detail is consistent most of the time. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted May 3, 2008 Author Posted May 3, 2008 yeh the detail is apparent, but i don't want any breakages though. Quote
Beware of Blast Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Nah, you'll live with the chances. If you can accept sh!t for quality from Yamato, you'll live with Medicom's durability. I'm getting the SS GoKu. Quote
