Eek those gold figures I am really sorry. Especially since I think the Gohan/Zoro one is the nicest. The Sanji/Bulma one is also cute except for the fact that he doesn't stand right.

As for Krillen/Robin the figure itself is boring but I guess they paired them up because Robin is probably the closest to No. 18. At least that is how I see it. But yeah I definitely see no connection to Franky/Vegeta.

Well, Franky originally seemed like a villain, and he fought Luffy once. I'm not totally familiar with Dragonball, but Vegeta was a villian, and he fought Goku (at least) once.

I know, it's a pretty small link, but it's something.

You neglected a couple of things in your article, Rob:

1. Why is Gohan crying over Zoro's sheer superiority?
2. What is Goku pointing at?


I would imagine that it's because Zoro seems to be thrusting his crotch at him. (Another thing I'm surprised the article didn't mention). Why he's doing that...I have no idea.

To be honest, In my opinion, the Gold Zolo/Gohan looks better than the painted one(Atleast with the referance picture you gave). I mean, look at Zolo's eyebrows.... Gohans probably crying because Zolo looks so horribly painted ._.

THE EYEBROWS!!

As for Goku and Luffy... Goku is doing his best Kamina impersonation ;D

I live in Japan and those capsule's are at the most 300 Yen each. I have actually seen the box set that you got for less than 25 USD. Honestly you got ripped. On the subject of the gold ones they are not considered "rare" but just special editions and the same goes for the clear.

arent u a big one piece fan rob? u should have known chopper was asking for piccolo's autograph...

btw. i bought a one piece gashapon last year... i was hoping to get luff, but i got monochrome luffy... and i liked it much better, so i guess it depends on your preferences. Razz







thats the first time I've heard someone call a gashapon a "tranvestite" Laughing

In regards to the Roshi/Nami set, Roshi is making the "paffu paffu" gesture at Nami, hence the nose bleed, and Nami is immitating it back at him egging him on, much like Buluma (actually Oolong in disguise) does in the early episodes of Dragonball. Though as to why that would actually be in character for Nami is beyond me, her pummeling the crap out of Roshi would have been more appropriate.


Remember the Happiness Punch scene?
Nami likes getting money from pervs.
