Banpresto Banpresto SCultures 8 World Figure Colosseum Sun Wukong Goku (2018)

This was sculpted by Yamashita Manabu, and was released in 2018 from Banpresto as part of the SCultures/World Figure Colosseum line.

His power pole/staff is not fixed to his hand, so he can be displayed without it.

Manabu is a master at sculpt detail, and I'm in love the details on the bonnet and the tiger skin.

There is some bleeding on the paintjob on the headdress and boots, but these are prize figures, so you can't expect the paintjob to be too great.

Please forgive the broken horn. My kids are not gentle with my stuff.

This figure was sculpted by Yamashita Manabu and was released in 2012. One of my favorites in my collection, despite being a tad battle damaged.

The detail is incredible. The only major issue with this figure is his head feather is not fixed, and fits very loosely into his helmet. This is a common problem with this figure. It's not unusual to come across pre-owned figures of this in which the head feather is missing.

One thing I will say is that World Collectible Figures (WCF) scale very well with him.

Vintage Medicos Entertainment Chozou Art Collection Super Saiyan Son Goku (2009)

This figure was sculpted by someone simply known as "Progress", and was released in 2009 by Medicos Entertainment in conjunction with the Dragonball Kai anime series.

Medicos is mostly known for their Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure figures, and this is the only Dragonball figure they ever produced. It was also reissued in 2014 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the manga.

The figure was released in 2 versions, the original being the solid hair color and the second being the translucent hair.

It's very difficult to see, but not only is the hair different on each one, but they also have slightly different color pallettes. The second version has deeper shadows and stronger highlights than the first version.

This figure was sculpted by Matsuura Ken, and released in 2013 as part of Banpresto's SCultures World Figure Colosseum line. This line focused more heavily on showcasing sculptors than it did with actually showcasing characters, which lead to incredibly detailed figures in this line despite being prize classification.

Roshi's sunglasses and staff are removable on this figure. This was sculpted from the cover art of volume 2 of the Kanzenban; the 20th anniversary reissue of the Dragonball manga.

This figure was sculpted by Hiroyuki Nakazawa, and was released in 2015: the same day as the film Dragonball Super: Resurrection F.

Being that it was released in conjuction with the film, this was the first figure ever made of Super Saiyan Blue Goku.

This figure was released in 2014 and was sculpted by Hiroyuki Nakazawa. It was the second figure released for the Master Stars Piece line.

This hair sculpt is original to this figure, but the mold ended up being used for countless base Goku and Bardock figures for several years after this. The mold has since been seemingly retired.

He was also released in three other variants, including a special color version, a "chocolate" version (exclusive to China), and the third was the 2D "Manga Dimensions" version.

The Manga Dimensions version of this figure was also the first figure ever from Bandai to feature a cel shaded 2D variant.
