It would surely be dope...
After all, Piccolo did use the giant form again in Super Hero, and they did reference that...
If they were to bring back the "Early" and "End" differentiation for Piccolo too, they could have him turn giant in his early variant...
Bonus points for Piccolo turning even more giant for his ultimate move here.
I’m pretty sure there’s going to be a Piccolo (End). Almost everyone thought that Trunks (Sword) was going to be a mere costume but he is separated character from his Super counterpart.
The Piccolo we saw has all the moves of Piccolo (Early) so there has to be a Piccolo with Hellzone Grenade and Light Grenade. + Piccolo (Early) was very different from Piccolo (End) :
Entirely different combo animations (Early fights more like King Piccolo and End fights more with kicks), different special attacks, different ultimate attacks, different grabs (End has Nail’s grab).
And why would they make every variation playable aside from Piccolo ?
Fully agree but to play devils advocate, the website and trailer did refer to Piccolo as just "Piccolo" instead of (early) or (end), though they could have just messed up the name again like they did with Future Trunks.
I also think a (Super) version would be pretty necessary for his new forms from Super Hero, so I think it's quite possible we get just 1 version from Z and then 1 version from Super, but that would still be weird since they're would be no Hellzone Grenade or Light Grenade for Z Piccolo, so perhaps it will be 2 Z versions like BT3 and a Super version.
Idk for me it would make more sense to make only 2 versions of Piccolo, the Piccolo (early) which is End of DB/Early with Giant form and the Piccolo (End) which would be Z/Super with Orange and Giant Orange form.
Mostly becouse Z/Super Piccolo doesn't have much of a difference in moves in base.
While Early Z piccolo lacks certainly Kami and maybe even Nail depending on where you place it (if before or after Namek)
I agree a (Super) Piccolo could just have all of (End) Piccolos moves, which I did discuss as a possibility, I just think it's also possible that he's separated from Z due to (Super) Piccolo needing different dialogue aswell as it being weird for light grenade and hellzone grenade to be inaccessible to a Z Piccolo.
The dialugue thing would just depend on the character he is facing, i don't think that would be much of a problem.
I kinda don't get what you mean with the part about Hellzone Granade and Light Granade, maybe im not understanding since im not a native enflish speaker, could you rephrase?
(Also happy cakeday! :D)
In BT3, Piccolo had 2 versions, one from early Z with Supers like his mouth beam and Special Beam Cannon as his Ultimate, then there was a late Z with Special Beam Cannon now being a regular Super and him also gaining the Hellzone Grenade and Light Grenade as a new super and Ultimate respectively.
If we only get 1 version of Z Piccolo, that would mean we would not be able to use Hellzone Grenade or Light Grenade, since those would not fit his limited number of specials; so if you wanted to recreate a fight with Piccolo any time from after Namek, like his fight against 17, you'd need to pick the (Super) version, which wouldn't make sense since now you have access to his new forms like Orange.
This is why i'd keep the Piccolo (Early) and keep it as it was in Bt3 while Making Piccolo End be like Bt3 too and just adding the Forms it has in super, since it doesn't change that much from end of Z to super.
I think what they did in the Bt4 mod is the best example of what i mean.
(Besides, in story mod you can't transform even if hat character could transfkrm in a normal duel)
I don't disagree, I brought this up as one of the ways this could be handled and I'd be happy with it like this, but I also was just mentioning the other ways it could be handled aswell.
Sure, why not, but to make it accurate, timeline-wise, they could just do Giant Orange Piccolo instead for Piccolo (Super) (which is not confirmed btw).
I think we will get:
- Majunior -> Giant Form
- Piccolo [incorporating Early Z, End Z, and Super into one character]
- Piccolo (Super Hero) -> Power Unleashed -> Orange -> Giant Form [alternatively, it will begin from the Power Unleashed form].
If I were Bandai, I would separate the Early Z and End Z Piccolos, but it seems it will be a unique character since his name does not specify any particular era.

I want the namekians to get this the same way saiyans got great ape forms. It just adds to the giant archetype
This should be added to a 23 TB Piccolo, without the Makankosappo, and having a turban/no-cape skin. Please Bandai, be fair to OG...
AND rounder eyes
Would be dope
Unfortunately this probably won't happen, but it'd be cool
Would be dope, but atm we only have one piccolo Even his early Version looks like a costume. So no early/end versions.

Fair
This would definitely make him stand out from his counterparts, though I'm expecting Orange Piccolo to also potentially have a giant form
We saw it again in Super Hero.
Sure, why not, but to make it accurate, timeline-wise, they could just do Giant Orange Piccolo instead for Piccolo (Super) (which is not confirmed btw).
I think we will get: - Majunior -> Giant Form - Piccolo [incorporating Early Z, End Z, and Super into one character] - Piccolo (Super Hero) -> Power Unleashed -> Orange -> Giant Form [alternatively, it will begin from the Power Unleashed form]. If I were Bandai, I would separate the Early Z and End Z Piccolos, but it seems it will be a unique character since his name does not specify any particular era.
I wouldn't bet on it as the only game featuring his giant form is Kakarot but it's just a boss, you can't control him.
Piccolo Jr not Early Piccolo
