I made it myself actually. I used a marble and some of those fancy cocktail sticks. Just snip the ends off the swords and super glue them onto a marble. You can make them look however you'd like. Super simple and easy to do.

Yeah he’s crept up quite a bit over time. I was mostly referring to the one that just came out stateside. It’s still MSRP, but that doesn’t mean it’s cheap. He is loaded with a ton of good accessories though.

Another villain option that’s pretty affordable is Ginyu. You can routinely find him for less than MSRP.

The future is now!

Photopea is a free online editor very similar to old school Photoshop. Here is a tutorial you might find useful.

It's up on Amazon JP, but for retail and the shipping is kind of high. I got it from there for now and added another figure I wanted to combine shipping, so it's coming out to just about retail price even with the shipping.

Great choices :) Heads up. Battle on Titan is on sale at Amazon JP

The Avengers 2012 team (aside from the web exclusives) is fairly priced on there as well.

Loctite Liquid Professional Super Glue ( Pack of 4 ) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FS55WS6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_44SZVCFVQD2BAYCPZTKC

This is the kind I’ve been using for years. I’m sure the others are totally suitable, I’ve just always used this kind.

https://www.amazon.com/Team-Associated-Weight-Silicone-2-Ounce/dp/B0006N6TRY/ref=mp_s_a_1_11?dchild=1&keywords=shock+oil&qid=1611979151&sr=8-11

I used this brand, but it was 80 weight. Tragically the 80 weight seems out of stock, but from what I understand, all weights work, the 80 just lasts longer. I’d do more research just so you can make sure I’m not full of shit, but it seemed to work on my Jeice, so there’s that

Sorry amigo. I found it on Amazon if you’re willing to pay some more.

SH Figuarts Avengers Captain America about 155mm ABS & PVC painted action figure by Bandai https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VHK2S8O/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_6qPVCbG8NJDDY

Check these out.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UUTBFGY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Y0DgFbF0K20XJ

I have them myself. Great price for 5 stands. You put them together yourself so you can choose from 3 different arm lengths, 3 different claw sizes, and the claws are held with a screw, so you can keep airbourne figures from slipping out unlike the oem Tamashii claws

If you dont have one already, invest in a tri-pod and ring light. I picked one up on Amazon earlier in the year for 60 bucks (weirdly now its down to 35)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W66QFPR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's great for macrophotography. LED, 3 colours (white, bluewhite, and yellow) and 10 brightness levels on a telescopic tripod with a swivel. Im not a professional at all, but it really stepped up my Figure picture game.

Depends where you are located. It’s on Amazon here

https://www.amazon.com/Traxxas-Oil-Shock-60cc-Silicone/dp/B09J8HRLQV

but idk if that’s any use to you. If it isn’t, just look up RC car hobby shops near you and they should have it. It’s like $10

https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B0BCDTKHBK/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1NL4CK7FJWCB6&keywords=%E3%83%95%E3%82%A3%E3%82%AE%E3%83%A5%E3%82%A2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%84+%E3%83%9C%E3%83%90&qid=1662065579&sprefix=figuarts+bob%2Caps%2C99&sr=8-3

​

Still up.

Depends on what country you live in unfortunately, but in the US the lowest retail is about $35 unless there's a sale.

4th Form Frieza is top tier at that price, and amazon currently has him for $33.

Aside from Frieza, there are about 4-5 different flavors of Goku to choose from, and the Super Hero figures from the new movie - although I'll believe $35 Vegeta when I see it... prices are kind of silly for him and Gohan at the moment.

amazon japan still has her too

Thanks comrade,

The brushes were actually just an ordinary set of brushes ranging in size from average to fine; someone gave me their old set so not sure but a set like this is all you need:

https://www.amazon.com/BOSOBO-Paintbrushes-Watercolor-Miniature-Detailing/dp/B07GH7WGC3/

Also used sandpaper to rub down the areas i needed to paint, before applying the primer -- lets it stick better. Afterwards let the primer set for a good 24 hours (the one i mentioned at least recommends 24 hours). Then I painted the cheap acryllic metallic paints on in layers (this was the most annoying part). For fine details I used the fine point brush and used toothpicks to rub off the parts I did globby. So if you make any mistakes don't stress it, it comes off easily.

Once I was happy I put down two layers of gloss vallejo sealer with a brush. Leaving about 4-6 hours of cure time between coats. And that's pretty much it.

So you don't want the Act 4 stands or you can't find them? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N87J4T6/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_8T2SMTZF48Q04BQCCVQE

The Act 4 stands are better now and will last a long time (I've some originals from 12 years ago that are still like new)

Other than those I don't know

1. Mafex Justin League Superman. I bought him back in May of 2019 for $64.17. He's not available on Amazon anymore (Link).

2. Thanks a lot!

I'm not positive if these are the exact same, but the pictures definitely looked like the Homyl ones : https://www.amazon.com/SM-SunniMix-Explode-S-H-Figuarts-Tamashii/dp/B07G132QHY/ref=dp_prsubs_1?pd_rd_i=B07G132QHY&psc=1

and it's both colors for 20.

Pentel Super Hi-Polymer Eraser, Large, Nonabrasive, White (PENZEH10) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006HXSBU/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_4KY3CYPDMFC47BVKBAF8

Something like this, you should be able to find it easily. If it is deep into the plastic, you might want to just repaint it, or you try lightly scraping it off. If it truly bothers you try getting a replacement.

It's the Jazwares: Pokemon Venusaur 12-Inch Epic Battle Figure - Authentic Details, Fully Articulated Figure Toys Inspired by Smash-Hit Animated Series - Gotta Catch ‘Em All , Blue https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085QLGJVL/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_TTXA91TKVS9S68D5ZZM3

I recommend not using super glue of any kind. It’ll leave a bad white residue you cannot easily get rid of. I’ve used Tamiya EXTRA THIN model cement I’ve used this for many years and it’s some great stuff.

If you want to pay a little extra for more accessories I’d get this one Bandai Dragonball Super S.H. Figuarts Action Figure Frieza -Resurrection- 12 cm https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R1XCNH4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_XNCACCP20P7KHT167RWY

But up to you. They’re the same figure just with slightly different paint apps.

I use this as my air duster. It has a brush nozzle so I use it to dust them off. Saves the environment and money in the long run

Deal Alert: Infinity war Thanos for a decent price of $75, no affiliation:

https://www.amazon.com/Tamashii-Nations-Thanos-Avengers-S-H-Figuarts/dp/B0849LH1RR/ref=pd\_ybh\_a\_1?\_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=ZMP2GKG5E2K2462YE86P

Is it this listing?

Cause it looks to be the 2.0 The most recent release is the shinkocchou seihou which is like a 3.0 release

https://www.amazon.com/Dragon-Ball-Super-Evolve-Saiyan/dp/B07W6S61XF

If you don't want to break the bank you can get this vegeta for now then if they release a bardock you can kit bash take the scouter, cut arms and glue them onto the vegeta arms and legs the only issue will be the head sculpt. It's a cheap option but I've seen some people do the evolve frieza into a full power frieza

You should look into getting something like these https://www.amazon.com/Adorox-Quality-Acrylic-Display-Showcase/dp/B015TOTPSE/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?dchild=1&keywords=jewelry+riser&qid=1633618017&sr=8-15

You can have Thanos tower everyone with the big one as well as use the other two to bring ironman and doctor strange fully into view so you can see the entire figure, either way it’s an awesome collection!

The ones here are a mafex and a mezco stand that come with their figures. They're a little big they don't clamp snug I need to get some better for sh figuarts. Amazon had these for 10$ but Idk if they're decent quality price seems too good. https://www.amazon.com/EFAILY-Assembly-Display-Support-Compatible/dp/B085M5H89B/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?dchild=1&keywords=figure+stands&qid=1633154724&sr=8-15

Hey, she sent the link. They're the Officially License Dragon Balls, they'll run about 100. Each ball's about 2 inches in diameter. I'm not sure they're worth 5x what the other balls go for, I'm sure the knock off brands are just fine for display purposes

I used different markers. Jeptens's markers are good for a smaller figure. Try finding something similar to this.

You could try using a ball-shaped lamp, like this or this

haha, I feel you.

Mine actually just arrived from Amazon JP yesterday (ordered on the weekend).

I know in one of the facebook groups I'm in, there was a guy using these foam blocks that he'd cut outlines of his figures and accessories into to place them in. Looked like a neat space saving solution.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QHMQIAG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_1DJCN5TW9QXFZKPQ4XMX?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

It looks like BBTS is not getting theirs any time soon either. Try Amazon Japan. I got it a couple day after order in great condition considering it was international shipping.

https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/B08981LQND/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

That's where I got it from.

If you are talking about from my picture post, then yes. I believe it is going to be the Tamashii stage Act 4 stands. Amazon has them: https://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashii-Stage-Act-4-Humanoid/dp/B003AH6EVY/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_21_t_0/134-8466291-8029006?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=H96B0EZJ7FEF13VSZFPV

I just don't know how heavy duty you would like though.

I recently received this one, I’ll let you know how it is once I put it together.

Furinno Turn-N-Tube 4-Tier Multipurpose / Storage Shelf / Bookshelf / Display Rack, Black/Grey https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007KLYD46/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_sOFGFbY7TWRGW

This one is coming out in a couple of week! Dragon Ball Super - Dragon Stars World Martial Arts Tournament Stage Playset, S18 World Martial Arts Tournament Stage, Series 18 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08C4SZMP4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_nT9FFb25MWEST it’s for dragon stars but scales really well with SHF from what I’ve seen from pics! I have one already pre ordered!

Some of the guys in the SHF Dragon Ball discord use these clear risers.
https://www.amazon.com/NIUBEE-Acrylic-Display-Figures-Decorations-3/dp/B07KN5G9CQ/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=clear+risers&qid=1598156977&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFDR0gzNlhBQjlUUkomZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTA1NDAyMjQxRENGUzJUT0ZFNjVDJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA3NjU0NDUySTRCSlBOTkZYN0FYJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

I think it was between 50-65. Can't remember properly as I got him on release. So the price on Amazon isn't to bad considering. You could also get the 1.0 version for about 110.

Here's the link. Bandai SPIRITS S.H.Figuarts Dragon Ball Vegeta 160 mm https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07V3QGGJR/ref=cm_sw_r_wa_apa_i_i8zhFbV97XM3G

I bought this on Amazon, and it just arrived today. First thing I noticed was there was no Blue Fin logo, oddly? Please tell me this isn't a bootleg. I ordered it from here https://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashii-Nations-Figuarts-Saiyan/dp/B0722K9Z8N/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=sh+figuarts+super+saiyan+3+goku&qid=1588542497&sprefix=sh+ciguarts+super+sai&sr=8-5

As an alternative, you might look into the Revoltech Mark IV. This link is for reference but you can get it on eBay for much less.

https://www.amazon.com/SCI-FI-Revoltech-No-025-magazine-limited/dp/B005IUIIEM

It doesn’t have the unmasked head or as many accessories, but it’s a pretty solid figure that probably wouldn’t look too out of place with SHF armors. I have both and while I do prefer the SHF one, the Revoltech is a really great option if you want a high-quality Mk IV that’s quite a bit cheaper.

Also if you do like that one and want to get it even cheaper, I could sell you my loose one for a bargain. I basically had to buy it to get the War Machine (long story) and while I had it out for display for a little bit, I don’t need two of the same armor so I planned to sell it eventually anyway.
