    True. Bandai has finally started a figure line for godzilla and now we have other options for godzilla beyond monsterarts.

    You never know that'll come next

    I've been doing a daily video series this month Kai-July on my YouTube channel. It's mostly Godzilla comics, but I'll be featuring other fun Kaiju related things too, including today's video which is a review of the new Bandai Namco action figure line of Toho monsters. The figure was just released this week, so very fun getting to take a look at something so brand new. Bonus is it's Final Wars Godzilla and that's my favorite look for the character

    I don't get it. Those buildings WERE for him??? (Thought they were for Titanicus)

    Doesn't make sense.

    EDIT: I read the Titanic tweets, and I guess I understand. Still, they say they WILL do the original feudal version with period feudal accessories later on.

    I saw the new 5inch Mechagodzilla 74 Bandai vinyl today at Fan Expo. It looks like it might be in scale with the Mezco stuff. Sadly, they did not have G54.

    I didn't know this was announced, but there's a Movie Monster Series set of Skar King & Shimo coming. It's already pre-sold out at BBTS, but amiami still has it available.

    Shimo looks slightly bulky, especially in the neck, but she's big! And Skar King actually looks really good! Movie Monster Series is fast becoming my go-to line for Godzilla merchandise & I'm actually really glad now that I inexplicably woke up 2 hours early this morning.

    Just saying, but I feel like the Playmates versions are pretty solid

    Gorgo's box was already huge.

    This will be massive!

    First one, you mean. They seriously cut corners on the second issue since there was no accessories.

    I wonder if Yongary with have the same kind of spot-varnished plastic box the first Gorgo had. I hope so. I liked that despite the razor sharp edges. :eek: :D

    Guessing it's the batmech.
    Seems they can't get godzilla though, probably since they'd need tohos permission for that unlike kong
