Krillin "Son Goku´s old friend"

This articulated figure "Krillin -Son Goku’s old friend-" was released in 2026 as a Tamashii Web Exclusive, being the 208th figure in the Dragon Ball S.H. Figuarts collection.

This is the third figure the brand has released of the adult character wearing the Turtle School uniform: the first was in 2013 with a 1.0 body, and the second in 2022 with a 3.0 body—both based on Dragon Ball Z during the Android and Cell Sagas. This new version, however, is inspired by the Namek Saga and features a 4.0 body.

Its design and sculpt are 100% new, with an improved scale, making it the most appropriately short adult Krillin released to date. It also implements the 4.0 articulation system, offering better mobility and aesthetics compared to previous versions.

Regarding its accessories, it includes interchangeable faces and hands, as is standard with SHF figures. What stands out is the included ki blast effect with a support stand, which—due to its design—might spark controversy, as many believe it closely resembles a male reproductive organ.

As a bonus detail, it's worth noting that this is the second figure of the character based on the Namek Saga, with the first being the "Battle Clothes" version released in 2022.

From listacompletade.com, we recommend this figure 100%. It’s a very iconic character, with a new and distinct design, plus a new articulation system. The downside: it's not cheap and it's not a regular release, so its price could skyrocket.
