The INSANE quality of a Knockoff: Bulma with Bike
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 08. 2024
- Today we look at the Black Hole Toys Dragon Ball set that includes Bulma, Capsule No. 9 Bike, and Kid Goku. This set matches the SHFiguarts set with stunning accuracy and only half the price of the aftermarket value. Dragon Ball fans will love this new Capsule Corp Bike from Black Hole Toys! Is this still considered a Bootleg figure?

Good evening
What is your space channel link?
I though it would be in your link tree
@@djfunkgut haha. It’s just out there waiting to be discovered
@@NostalgiaUnboxed dang come on folks.. help me find this space channel
I was really hoping to see Vegeta on the bike with Bulma and you did it! Your posing segments are always top notch. Your humor and skill is Over 9,000!
@@MightyNilrac haha! Thank you very much!
This is definitely a knockoff in the sense that it’s a replica of the original set minus diecast and perhaps one additional accessory and the included Bulma figure. At least they aren’t trying to fool you with the same box as the original. Bandai will likely reissue the original set; they’ve been getting around to lots of re-releases for fans that missed out.
I hope they do more rereleases then! Lots of stuff out there that has gone way too high in price. I should have probably said “bootleg” and compared to “knockoff”. The “bootlegs” out there are hideous. This is actually nice
I hope they reissue or redo Z Broly. The paint jobs were immaculate, but the body proportions were weird. The shoulders were too big and the head was too small imo. I much prefer the Super broly hair, head and body sculpt proportions but I like the z aesthetic far better with the gold accessories and such. Classic.
@@kiddgear4170 I’m there with you on that one!
They did! Mine just arrived from Amazon
I had no idea the original had become so expensive. I got mine from GameStop when they put it on clearance for around 40 bucks or something. It is a nice piece though, real high quality feel, and this reproduction in your video looks pretty damn close. I certainly wouldn't pay 200 bucks for the real deal with this one available for much cheaper.
Crazy to think stuff like this goes clearance and then skyrockets in price. Same with the Batman vs TMNT figures at Gamestop
Best tip for posing, close one eye
If you close both you can do the best poses! Haha
I think by definition it's a bootleg because it seems to be the same sculpt, but there are certainly edge cases like this (and the 2008 neca turtles for example) where the bootleg is probably worth it compared to the price of the real thing.
Yeah, I may need to really think about "bootleg" versus "knockoff" as well. Personally, I would say this is more in the territory of "knockoff" and the cheap, $15 versions with bad paint are "bootlegs". But, they probably mean the same thing lol. Maybe "knockoff" is only when it would be something like, "Dragoon Sphere"
Dude I love that I can watch your videos. When I was younger I stole dbz action figures from Walmart. I'm Older and I buy them. It means more buy them because its the right thing to do.
lol the rage in that laugh at 1:14 lol
😅
Fun fact: the image in the back of the box is oolong wishing for a pair of panties in order to prevent Pielaf from using them to rule the world, a moment that leads to the climax of the first arc of the original Dragonball. Yes I've read it enough times to know that from sight alone.
Probably explains the last word in the text bubble.
You knew what was coming! Haha. Those early years were super inappropriate 😂
I think it also ties back to the name pun. Bulma = bloomers, which nobody really says in English anymore, but it comes across as Oolong promoting the set AND being a perv. lol
I might get it. I don't have a lot of anime stuff. But that is pretty iconic of magic Dragonball, and you don't see much of Akira Toriyama's mechanical designs in plastic.
Irwin toys made some little die cast capsule corp machines in 2000.
Yeah! I love mechanical stuff and vehicles often don't get the love due to size and cost
Hey man, it was super cool meeting you today at Ishcon, I was the bald guy with the beard. Thanks for taking time out to talk toys!
Hey!! It was a pleasure! I am hoping to go to as many events like that as I can in the area. Hope to see you again!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Same! I dont get out too much, but that was super fun, hopefully Ill see you around.
It's cool that Bulma's name is supposed to be a reference to "panties." Your DB/DBZ love is a reminder that I still need to read/watch that series (don't hate me!). First I have to finish watching 10,000 episodes of One Piece (or read like a million chapters of the manga). Why do the popular manga/anime properties have so much material?!
Hahaha, it's almost like those popular properties... are popular! 😂
Greatest translation (and timing) I’ve ever seen
It’s so good 😂
I hope they make a 3rd party "cooler" action figure. he was always my favorite. why is he 140$ rn
That would be… cool
@@NostalgiaUnboxedlol
I just got the black hole one and it’s perfect I think you got a qc because my skirt plastic was easy to move
So weird! Glad you enjoy it!
I loved Dragonball Z back in the day. I haven't seen it in years. If I get Dragonball Z figures it will definitely be cheaper ones. Idk if Jada toys makes them. I'm collecting Jada toys Street Fighter characters. They're as articulate but $25.00-$30.00.
They don’t make them, but there is a cheaper line called Dragon Stars
I have the originals. I would like another bike. I might check that out. Great review.
Awesome! Thank you
Like I said on my other comment from yesterday your vids are just amazing plus you get laughs out of them too haha, thanks to the vegeta review the the recolored awakening super saiyan one I purchased one and what can I say such a great buy ❤
Thank you so much!
I don't watch a lot of figure reviews. Really only one [despite the Algorithm always suggesting new ones].
I made it 12:55 seconds into this one & subbed. Love it.
Well thank you
I miss out on the original, definitely pulling the trigger on this if I see it. Besides, I want it more for the background of my display. So it doesn’t have to be perfect.
I believe it’s still up on 5ktoys
Now get 298 more so you can imagine what having to live with 300 bulmas would be like
Life size? I’m in
Ummm
I just got into Dragon Ball recently and picked up a few lower priced figures. I picked one of these up from Aliexpress after watching the video.
Be careful with Aliexpress! (Did you get the bike specifically?)
I ordered the Bulma with bike. I just got the Black Moon Jitendra and it’s great. Really tight joints though.
@@gijoedirt7618 Awesome!
I meant Jiren. Stupid autocorrect. What the hell is a Jitendra lol.
@@gijoedirt7618 😂
Honestly though we've seen NECA figures slightly inconsistent figure to figure. One big one that comes to mind is Tokka and Rahzar. The original release was more of a matte finish while the 2nd was far shinier. Its those posts that introduced me to Mr. Super Clear Matte. I ended up with a 1st release Tokka & Rahzar but I've used that spray on other figures and its fantastic! Another is the turtles headbands being different shades. Blackhole did great! You could show me the 3rd party and I'd not know it was 3rd party. :)
A good matte finish can completely change a figure! Amazing stuff
Science nerds seem to have the best understanding of sarcasm 😆
😂
as if the translation wasnt funny enough in real time the edit with the roshi nose bleed had me 😂 i found the blue hair goku at target last week, and my figuarts obsession is taking off exponentially. not a bad knock off here, but i prefer the adventurer bulma (i just gave her that name) from your other video.
Mad Max Bulma, haha! Yeah, I do to. I was really just here for the bike, but in the end, I would suggest the real Bulma over this thing unless you did want her only on the bike. My Figuarts obsession is also taking off exponentially. Haha!
I think its worth it for the bike and if you dont have the bulma thats pretty good
Absolutely!
The comments arguing about this is a KO, bootleg not a third-party, etc... Who cares about the semantics? The majority of people who collect Figuarts refer to Demonical Fit, Kong, and now Black Hole Toys as third-party which is meant to say it's a figure made by people trying to either give you a much cheaper alternative for a now very expensive SHF, as well as some unreleased characters using the same joint structure, whatever. Where as the terms KOs or Bootlegs are for the complete garbage like Legend Creation that are always advertised with the SHF stock photos and are just trying to trick you.
Unfortunately with crap like Bandai having sole licensing rights we can't see any other form of healthy competition as far as Dragon Ball Figures other than companies and releases like these.
You absolutely nailed it
How is the weight of the Capsule 9 bike? The real one has some decent weight with the metal in it.
My biggest gripe with the DragonBall SH Figuarts line, is the inconsistencies of scale... but to some degree, I understands why they didn't make kid Goku and kid Krillin so tiny... just makes it tricky to pose the child figures near the more adult figures.
Fun review... that I personally, didn't need (having the real ones) but I enjoy your style, so if a video of yours has something of interest to me, whether I own it or not, I've to to watch!
Must see youtube!
Do you own or plan to try and get the Demon King? That figure is really cool, and big.
No metal in this one, but it feels like it looks like it would? Haha doesn’t make sense. It’s certainly not a problem at this weight.
You’re right on with those scales. Happy to have this little guy, but never looks right having the full figure kids next to them.
Thank you so much! That means a lot!
I will check it out!
What from I could find, the artist they took from for the cover box, is someone named Solletickle16.
interesting
I ordered Blackhole toys Ultra instinct Goku, not for the UI head but the Super Saiyan head look amazing especially since its obvious they copied figuarts awakening Goku's body. One of the SSJ heads is from just after he "kills" frieza and his hair is wind swept and he has the sad face on, so cool!
Awesome!! How are the joints on those?
9 months with no answer is crazy
Try the black hole full power Jiren next !! You won’t regret it
Ohhhhhh nice
Did the authentic figure fit on the bike with the KO pieces? (Skirt/bike specific hands)
Yes!
11:54 Pro Tip for a cool move 😎
Gotta keep my audience on the top of their game. Pro tips only
Can be found for even less. Epic alternative.
The original bike is getting a re-release!
That's pretty cool 👍
Yeah it is
Whats the science show/channel you used to do?!;)
It’s lost in space now. Only the true fans will be able to find it. 😂
The pain in "no body watched it" was real
lol. Yeah
08:44 Once could even call that a gunmetal finish?
It's almost like a perfect name for it lol
Only time I ever bought a fake(didn’t know) was a Neca Rocksteady and Bebop. One of the figures was wrapped in the box so I knew it was off. I do some digging
and what they do is take the rejected Neca figures from the factory and just sell or finish them. So they are fake but real but you wouldn’t know the difference besides maybe a loose arm or the accessories are different colors
That’s wild! The SHF stuff is very noticeable in hand
it was on Amazon and the price was around the same price. Did some digging and it came from China and they have a whole business. I actually went thru a whole thing with amazon and it made them change the name from neca to something like zcx something but it still says neca and has the same pic in the descriptions
@@All1My1Little1Words1 that’s a crazy ride haha
As someone relatively new to TMNT figures, they get very pricey in resale and have SO many knockoffs! Like with the first movie ones!
Very true
Just give a quick spray of matte top coat, it'll no longer be shiney. It'll also photo better, loll. Defuses light all nice
I love that stuff
looks good
Definitely quality on the bike
Does anyone has the link for this figure? The ones i find on Aliexpress seem to sell the figure separately from the bike
I see it on Ali express. I searched “SHFiguarts Bulma capsule” on Google
The issue with all knockoffs, so much smudges. Like they made it so much like the real thing, then ruin it with the careless smudges. Also how did you not mention the dress is in 2 pieces on the knockoff.
Because they are both in 2 pieces
3rd party wouldn't use a one for one this is a ko even though it's a tad different it's still the same. A third party would make their own design and molding. This is considered a 4th party or Knockoff. I find the same thing dealing with Transformers that will sometimes come in a different box and have a different feel but it's still a KO with the usual not as good paint job. It only matters with the mold being the same to define it as a ko
Got it. Thanks
I have a question, is dragon starts good? I have a few of them and they're only 30 bucks, while figuarts is like 80+ bucks
If you enjoy them that's all that matters! There is a large difference between the two lines though
Where can one acquire black hole toys??
Many places. This was 5ktoys
What website did you order it from
4:00
there is one at my local chinese hobby shop i think it was 69$ or 89$.
Get it!!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed i was into the gundam models. and then dbz figure rise standard model kits. my one friend is collecting those, but there are soo many they get expensive lol.
@@you_tube6733 they really do! I’ve been curious about the model kits. Are they the same scale?
@@NostalgiaUnboxed ya they are pretty much exact same size. they are weaker. but fun to build and pose
@@you_tube6733 thank you!
This is 4th party, not 3rd party
10th party
Have you seen brown hole toys ?
Ha! Got ‘em
i got both originals for like $160
Nice!
One fake statue I prefer over the legit is the wish mind control super saiyan broly. Looks more accurate
very interesting!
@NostalgiaUnboxed I also have the legit one but he's too wide in comparison to the wish one and to how he looks in the movie. He's slender in face an body.
If this is a one to one knock off? i just don't like the idea of straight knock offs with no engineering differences
Certainly some differences in engineering like the plastics and joints. But for the bike they didn’t use metal like the real one
@@NostalgiaUnboxed ok gotcha
I would like you to relaunch your space channel.
Nice word play. It’s still up but I won’t make any further content
@@NostalgiaUnboxedwhat is the channel name?!
How is it a third party if it has the same sculpt, though? Same sculpt is a knockoff to me. Now, I’m not going to say don’t buy it. Especially when prices get stupid. Ramen Toy sculpts are original. They just skirt the license part.
I honestly don't know! hahaha
Third party are knockoffs
🚀👨🚀🌛🌠
Let’s go!
Why does youtube keep giving me "White guy with too much money and free time" videos?
Amazing. I usually get “what are you too poor” because if the things I won’t buy. Thanks for the change up. And thanks for commenting, that always helps a video
Um… that’s a KO bro. Literally the same toy with a cheaper paint job 😂.
Probably made at the same factory using older tooling , it happens often. Figuarts version may have had a revision, and instead of scrapping the steel molds they just use it after the retail run. Marvel legends is stinking with this stuff.
There’s a huge difference in quality and packaging between this Black Hole company and the bootlegs that show up in the same “SHFIGUARTS” box. The painting on those are hilariously bad.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I get that,m there’s a quality difference, I buy a lot of the 1:12 versions of 1:6 hot toys etc that 5ktoys puts up, the Mask figure is one of the best
Why buy a fake?
For the obvious reason mentioned in this video
sh figure arts suck this is why i only collect 3rd party or boot legs no one can tell the difference but i mostly go too 3rd party mostly
They don’t suck
