“(…) I WILL DESTROY YOU!! I will destroy you along with this cursed planet, because there is no other way to finish you off. I have now decided to destroy the Earth!!!!” — Vegeta
“You think I'll let you?! (…) I will call upon every force within me!!! I will stop you from destroying the Earth, you hear me?! I WILL STOP YOU!!!!” — Son Goku
Relive the first meeting and the first battle on Earth between Son Goku, the hero of Dragon Ball Z, and Vegeta, the Prince of the Saiyans, through an explosive HQS 1/6 statue!
Although these two protagonists share the same origins, they do not share the same destiny — everything sets them apart, starting with their convictions! The ruthless anti-hero wants at all costs to prove his undeniable superiority by reducing the planet, its inhabitants and his opponent to nothing, while the great defender of the Earth intends to use all his strength to stop him, fueled by a destructive desire for revenge. Only one solution: a merciless battle, and may the strongest win!
Determined to protect his loved ones and avenge his friends, Son Goku intends to unleash all his rage! In truth, he has little choice — he cannot fail: the survival of humanity depends on his victory. Here we see him deploying all his strength and energy to fight and try to defeat the space warrior and Prince of the Saiyans, preparing a formidable attack taught by his master Kaiō-sama: the Kaio-ken x3! An overwhelmingly powerful and destructive attack that forces him to push past his limits, putting his own life in danger!
The battlefield is recognizable by its terracotta desert ground, painted in a gradient of brown, orange and reddish shades; the rocks rise into the air under the immeasurable energy released by Son Goku. The Saiyan's rage and determination can be read in his dark, pitiless gaze, fixed on his enemy. He will do everything in his power to save his loved ones this time: the titanic effort he produces shows in the fierce expression of his grimacing face and in the muscles of his overdeveloped torso, which seem ready to tear. The Saiyan's massive, bulging musculature is underlined by the play of shadow and light achieved by our painters, while the reddish aura enveloping his entire silhouette reveals his transformation.
The warrior wears his usual orange pants, tightened at the waist by his blue belt floating in the air under the effect of the attack, just like his dark hair. His orange and navy shoes dig into the ground to steady him as he gathers maximum energy. Legs apart, arms outstretched, he is about to unleash all his power to remind his assailant why he should never have set foot on Earth. Preparing his attack, we see him forming with his hands an energy sphere in translucent resin, in graded shades of blue. The immense energy aura in translucent red resin behind him, the dust rising violently from the ground and the countless cracks formed in it testify to the power of the impact caused by the attack meant to wipe his opponent off the face of the Earth!
The blue energy sphere can be placed in Son Goku's hands or left out, thanks to his interchangeable arms, showing the Saiyan preparing his attack or striking — especially when placed facing the matching Vegeta HQS statue, bringing the battle between the two super warriors to life. If the Saiyan has not yet launched his attack, the translucent blue resin energy auras on his left and at the front of the base can be replaced with rocks. Finally, the base features an LED system to make the confrontation larger than life and turn the anime into reality.
The statue comes with its numbered plaque and certificate of authenticity.
1/6 scale. Limited to 3000 pieces.
Estimated release date: 1st half of 2022
