— April 5, 2023 — Life-Stages
FuzzFeet Studio has revealed a gaming-inspired anime figure of Dragon Ball Z characters Vegeta and Goku playing against each other in console games. There is also an alternative version of the characters playing the game on a retro console.

The anime figure displays Vegeta and Goku in casual clothing that comprises tank tops, shorts, and flip-flops. Vegeta is in Super Saiyan mode and has broken his gaming controller in anger, while Goku is sporting a pair of sunglasses with a relaxed facial expression. Both characters are seated on a couch with their muscles sculpted in detail. The exclusive anime figure comes in 1/6th scale and is made of resin and poly stone. The anime figure is available for pre-order for $179.
