Here, we’ll take a detailed look at the Son Goku Super Saiyan 2 figure, the 185th release in the S.H. Figuarts collection. This exclusive Tamashii Store release marks the second time Goku is portrayed in his SSJ2 form, inspired by his iconic battle against Majin Vegeta during the Buu saga. The figure is nearly identical to the one released for the SDCC 2022, with subtle differences that set it apart.
The Tamashii Nations stores, known as Tamashii Stores, are few and far between around the world, and these exclusive shops will be the only places where you can acquire this figure, previously available during the San Diego Comic-Con 2022. Its design resembles a 2.0 version of Goku with slight battle damage and the iconic Super Saiyan 2 hairstyle.
The accessories are fairly standard, including hands and faces, but what sets this figure apart is the Ki Aura Effect with lightning, a signature detail of the Super Saiyan 2 transformation.
If you managed to grab this figure in 2022 at the SDCC, and happen to be near New York, Shanghai, or Tokyo, don’t miss the chance to visit one of their stores and pick up this Goku.
For the rest of us, it’s a matter of trying our luck on eBay or AliExpress.
You won't be able to settle for just one, as you'll want to gather Krillin and Goku in their childhood stage to recreate an epic diorama of their confrontation at the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai, when both were training under Master Roshi's guidance.
