Fans and figure collectors of Dragon Ball is very lucky to have Banpresto as manufacturer, as the company doesn’t seem to show any sign of slowing down anytime soon. What we have here is Ultimate Son Gohan from Volume 6 of their Chosenshiretsuden line of action-posed figures. The line, as any other Banpresto lineup, is very diverse so it’s entirely possible your favorite character, whichever version, has a figure available from them.

The biggest selling point of these figures is the price. A lot of these retail around the P800 – P1000 (less than $20) price range, which, for a figure with such a good sculpt and dynamic pose is definitely a bargain. The choice of using PVC as the main material for the figure helps keep the cost down as well.

Here, we see Ultimate Gohan is featured in an action-pose, elbows up as if defending from a strike. For Dragon Ball fans, that’s a signature pose for him. The figure is brilliantly sculpted; the folds of his outfit are each chiseled intricately, from his shirt down to his pants. Paint job is superb, and one of Banpresto’s strengths is the professional application of the final paint, with shadows and shading to add depth to the figure. A mass produced figure with a consistent paint job says a lot about the company.

From the base to the top of his hair, Ultimate Gohan stands about 8″ tall, a decent size where details can still be preserved. This also allows collectors to display more figures on their shelves, without taking up too much space. This figure takes a bit of assembly, as Gohan himself is split into two parts. The base and stand is split as well.

So with a retail price of P850, the Banpresto Ultimate Gohan is definitely worth it, and a beautiful addition to your Dragon Ball collection.
