Son Goku - A Saiyan Raised on Earth

Very cool figure. The articulation and detail are great. It feels sturdy and easy to pose. It comes with a good number of hand and face accessories including a waving hand, and an instant transmission hand. It's not super expensive compared to some other figures. Definitely worth the price.

“I have a family of my own I need to tend to. Two boys and a wife. An extremely angry wife who probably wants to kill me right now.” This Goku is probably one of if not the best Goku figures to own. The color of his Gi is my personal favorite on this one. Not to mention the faces are fantastic. This Goku has been the base of practically every Goku figure to come out. (Apart from the overpriced SSJ4 Goku) In terms of a base Goku? This is the one you want. Even with the new Base Goku coming out promoting the new Movie “Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero” The faces are so much better on this release. The promo pictures for the new Goku faces look, odd… (Especially the yelling one. The nervous face is pretty good though.) So if you want an optimal Base Form Goku or you just want a decently prices Goku figure, get this one! You will not regret it. It especially goes well with the Goku dinner table set that released a while back. This is one of the best Goku figures from the S.H. Figuarts line. And best part? It’s not overly expensive and it’s NOT Premium Bandai. (Note: This Goku does not come with open palm hands nor a closed eyes face. I just used the Tenacious Martial Artist Accessories on this Goku to show how interchangeable it is. I haven’t tested if this head will fit the Tenacious Martial Artist body. But it probably does. For a perfect base Goku, I recommend getting this Goku, the new Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Goku, the Goku Dinner Table set, the D.F. Sun Guko accessory pack with the windswept hair and the Power Pole, and maybe the 1.0 Goku [Or just a bootleg of the 1.0 just for the faces] ) Anyways, that’s my review. Although do wanna say that this figure is worth $34.99, not the $44.99 that it’s asking for currently🤨 Nonetheless, I’d still recommend this figure, even with the mark up.

Spot-on sculpt and paint job. Goku looks like he is taken straight out of a Dragon Ball Z game. Durability is pretty great for what this is supposed to be. I personally still recommend being careful with this figure. I don't advise giving it to a younger kid (under 8) because it is explicitly marketed as an older kids' or adult collectible, not a kiddie toy. Most SH Figuarts packs cost $50+, so I think $35 ($25 in Japan) is a major steal for this. Especially considering this was just the character model with swappable hand gestures and facial expressions without any fancy accessories.In summary, I recommend this Goku to any especially new fan of the Dragon Ball Z franchise or any anime in general. This also has good poseability and articulation, which is great for hobbies like stop-motion animation and toy photography.My only complaints are that this is a redundant purchase for any seasoned Dragon Ball collector, because there are many forms of Goku seen throughout the Dragon Ball franchise, and this Goku is just his original, classic, regular form. So for them, I think getting their hands on an action figure form of their favorite Goku transformation is their cup of tea. Most new fans won't know Goku's powered-up forms as well, so base Goku is their best bet. This is from a man who only got into Dragon Ball relatively recently.

This figure is amazing value for money. The figures in this line usually START at around $60, but here you're getting a fantastic Goku figure for less than $40!The figure is sturdy and well built, with fantastic detail that makes him look true to his anime counterpart. He ships with multiple hands and faces, so that you can pose him in whatever your favourite pose from the anime is. If you're gentle, you can also remove his head and replace it with other heads from this figure collection. So, for example, if you own the "Super Saiyan Awakening Goku" figure, you could swap their heads and have a beautiful pristine Super Saiyan Goku, as well as a beaten, torn up regular Goku.His colours are bright and vibrant, whilst not being so shiny as to look cheap. The plastic feels really strong and despite there being small parts, I don't see this figure breaking with a careful owner. Speaking of which, this figure is perfect for a child to play with and will not break easily if the child isn't OVERLY rough with it. However, replacing the hands and faces can be tricky, plus the parts are very small, so if you are going to gift it to a child, please supervise them whenever they want to swap the parts out.The box is very well designed and enjoyable to look at, if you're into that.It isn't the most detailed figure in the line, but the price of it fully reflects that. Absolutely worth the money.

Came in exactly as described. Lots of movable parts too, great for artists that like drawing Dragon Ball characters!
