The Dragon Ball series is gearing up to release a new wave of Funko Pop! figures, and a few of them are for designs and characters fans have been asking for since the first wave of releases.

One that fans have especially been waiting for is the iconic design for Super Saiyan 2 Gohan, and now fans have their first look at his Funko transformation. UPDATE: Pre-orders are sold out, but keep tabs on this link for a restock.

Spotted by @MsDBZbabe on Twitter, the Super Saiyan 2 Gohan Funko Pop! figure is enigmatic of the final moments of the Cell saga of the series where Gohan transforms into Super Saiyan 2 for the first time. Like the previously revealed Super Saiyan 3 Goku figure, the Super Saiyan 2 Gohan figure will be exclusive to GameStop and be released in early December.

Gohan's final battle with Cell is one of the most iconic scenes in the entire franchise as it built on an entire series worth of growth in Gohan's character. Stripping away his adverse nature to fighting, and embracing his rage, Gohan transforms into Super Saiyan 2 and becomes the strongest fighter in the entire series for a short time.

Although he may not have the same amount of love shown throughout the rest of the series, especially in Dragon Ball Super which neuters his power pretty heavily, this initial transformation into Super Saiyan 2 will be fondly remembered for a long time. Now fans can pay tribute to it with a cool figure for their shelves or desk!

If you are interested in the anime series itself, Dragon Ball Super currently airs its English dub on Adult Swim during the Toonami programming block Saturday evenings at 9:30 p.m. It is also available to stream on Funimation and Amazon Video. The Japanese language release of the series is complete, and available to stream on FunimationNOW, VRV, and Crunchyroll. The manga currently can be read for free thanks to Viz Media.

If you want to catch up with the English dub, the first 65 episodes of Dragon Ball Super are now available to stream on FunimationNOW, VRV, and available to purchase on Amazon Video as well. The 65 episodes span the full range of what has aired in the North America and covers the "Battle of Gods" arc, "Revival of F" arc, the "Universe 6" arc, and bringing the series right up to the climax of the "Future Trunks" arc. The series is also currently airing reruns weeknights on Adult Swim.
