Dragon Ball Z - Special Version by Banpresto (1995)

This time Banpresto tried something new and left aside the usual Super Deformed look of UFO plushes and approached a more "real" representation of the characters.

The result was this set named "Special Version"

The "Special" thing about this set is how the characters look specially ugly.

Son Goku Super Saiyan 3

Face and hair don't look too weird but those arms and hands? Is that ball a Kame-hame-ha or a dragon ball?

Son Gohan

Not sure if that expression is because he's worried or just angry for being that weird-looking.

Goten and Trunks

Yes, they are attached as one single prize. I prefer the SD versions made after this one, though.

Piccolo

In my opinion this is the only one from the set that looks just fine. The body proportions and face are quite right for a realistic version from character.

Majin Boo

Again those arms and hands make the plush look weird. Also, I don't remember him having that long nose!

So random image. Why 2 Trunks and a Goku SSJ2 which is not in the set?

Maybe with that background diorama the set looks cooler than it is! The upper text says "Relive the hard and exciting battles!!"
