I really dig them all, but I'll have to see 1968 Godzilla in person to decide if I really want him. I do have the 1954 Godzilla by Bandai Creation though, which is a great figure.
Finally, we get Godzilla 2000, Destroyah, Hedorah, 1968 Godzilla, a 12-inch modern Mecha-Godzilla, and a 12-inch Final Wars Godzilla! That Destroyah looks much better than it's Japanese release now that it has 4 individually detailed wings with painted sections.
All in all, this lineup looks great! And best of all, I can still find all the previously released figures in stores! WANTED: The Rooster Hat from Scribblenauts(Special Pre-Order item). *IF anyone's EB Games/Gamestops have leftover hats that no one picked up & can get me 2-(even if you must buy the game twice) then PM me ASAP! |

No sign of the 12" ones. |

Godzilla 1968 and Hedorah excite me less than the only two, due to my lack of interest in Godzilla vs. Hedorah/the Smog Monster. However, Hedorah's size might be able to fix the issue of the Japanese sculpt being too small and out of scale. Godzilla 1968 just doesn't look quite as great as the Japanese version.
BTW, if someone who does see these can pick them up for me? I'd be your friend forever.  My Junkion Exchange Feedback| TFs, Halo, Power Rangers Dino Thunder for sale!  Quote:

I personally am not that fond of dragons, just because they carry no meaning for me. The "dragons" I grew up knowing all had their own names and unique features to set each other apart - Godzilla and company, followed by "real" ones, dinosaurs. Despite the variety of dragons out there, they were rarely "characters" or distinctive, and certainly not real, thus being irrelevant.
Took long enough, but from eBay, pictures of all four figures.  
Still not sure of Hedorah myself, and I've never been a huge fan of vagina-eyes there. Especially not after seeing the movie.
Godzilla 2000 is a must-have. The original Japanese version is ridiculously expensive for what it is anyway.
Since I never picked up a Destoroyah earlier, I'll probably get this one too.
And Godzilla 1968, I could take it or leave it, probably the latter since I have no desire to pick it up and I already have a toy of the Godzilla I grew up on, Megaro-Goji.  My Junkion Exchange Feedback| TFs, Halo, Power Rangers Dino Thunder for sale!  Quote:

Is there a remold plammed to come out that has the chest scar from Tokyo SOS?
That Destroyah is pretty bad-ass too.
Damn, I may have to get a couple of the 6.5" after all. |
