SHMA 1954 Godzilla is going to be out in a week, are you excited?
>a week
Been delayed for July 29th, unfortunately. Something went wrong?
Did you guys see that Shin Gojira's apparently going to have purple atomic breath?
Been awhile since I since a Kaiju general.
Rich just reviewed GMK
> Yuji Sakai
>>5784198
The image with purple breath was a shop a fan made with a toy. The Crayon Shin-Chan episode shows it with blue breath, so that's probably it.
>>5784504
>Rich
That was the most obnoxious thing I've had to bear. At least Steven reviewed it:
https://youtu.be/P3SdGwAG9V8?t=44
Some odd choices Bandai made here and there.
>>5784828
>Can't buy it because as a Canadian it would cost $130+ no matter where I import from.
Canada fag here. Bluefins not importing them anymore to sell on amazon?
Zilla Jr when?
Wait, GMKs out in Japan, so I can import it now if I'd like
but bluefin's releasing it in like August/September right? It'd be cheaper and easier to just wait for then wouldn't it? Same with SHMA 1954?
>>5784859
They don't usually. Sometimes they go up way after the release date, but bluefin and Amazon.ca are extremely hit and miss and they frequently cancel orders.
>>5784828
The popping off issue might just be because one end of the double ball joint being too tight. My 1964 SHMA had that issue with the torso joint, and I fixed the problem by just sanding down one end a lot
I sorta wanna see NECA tackle Shin Godzilla. I feel like that design would be a good fit for them. They usually do gross monsters justice. I feel like other Godzillas are out of their comfort zone which is why theyve been hit and miss.
but then again I also want them to stay away from what godzillas SHMA does so we get a better variety.
>>5785278
Nah we need alternative at non-rape prices.
>>5784511
Japan got a second trailer and apparently Godzilla glows purple in it.
>>5784871
Indeed.
I thought Monsterarts was good as dead? With all the rape prices and lack of variety...
>>5785623
how many times do you need to complain about it?
shit! GFest is this weekend. Who's this semen demon????
I'd plow that like Godzilla through Tokyo!!!
>>5785624
When does Bandai stop sucking dick?
>>5785624
He'll complain until they make Gabara, Zilla, Ebirah, or whatever other unfeasible things he wants.
>>5785899
Heisei fags are the worst.
>>5785382
That trailer is why the image was made. It's been confirmed since that the purple is a false rumor.
Is Shin getting a decent figure anytime soon, the current one looks like it fell out of a prolapsed ass.
>>5786155
monsterarts?
>>5786334
debatable.
>>5783865
OP is not correct. Releases the 29th.
more pics from this slut? got some pennies to burn and herd rumours she wears hello kitties undies??
GMK got delayed until the 15th, which sucks.
>>5786645
man so is the monsterarts version not being sold and amiami and other sites like that?
>>5786651
Yup, the Shin Goji is up on amiami, but I had to preorder my GMK from MHtoyshop.
>>5786686
Oh I know that, I was just telling the anon where I preordered mine.
do we have pics comparing SHMA vs NECA 1954 Godzilla?
I fell off from SHMA/Godzilla in general but he'd be a figure I'd want to own.
>>5784871
I want one so bad.
...So can someone give me the Hesei timeline? I got a nephew who is bugging me about it, nd eh wants to see it.
>>5787070
Simple
G54 takes place
84 and 89 happen
The futurians in v KG go back in time to try and prevent G54 from happening by moving the Gojisaurus, but in reality they move the Heisei G to the ocean. Government send sub to location in ocean in present day to check on Godzilla, he downs the sub and absorbs the radiation, grows
Continues on as normal.
>this thread
>>5783865
>are you excited?
Not really. I got the 1954 NECA Godzsilla already, which cost me about $30 and looks better than the monster arts. NECA did a great job on it.
At least in my opinion.
>>5786602
Friend her on FB. She doesn't turn down anyone if you're in her FB groups, she loves the attention of the unwashed Kaiju fans.
>>5786714
>do we have pics comparing SHMA vs NECA 1954 Godzilla?
Use google fag.
Monster arts will runs you close to $80 US or more. Neca will cost you $20 if you can find it at Toys R Us still, or just order it online on amazon or Ebay for $20-$30.
I honestly hate the MA's texture. Looks like a fucking sponge. I much prefer NECAs look, even if it isnt 100% accurate.
Theres also the build quality. MA stuff has been pretty fragile lately, with some QC issues, or just poorly made balljoints that come apart super easily. NECAs is like a solid hunk of heavy plastic with beefy balljoints that you could probably kill somebody with and hurl through a wall and still be mostly in tact.
>>5787280
>Monster arts will runs you close to $80 US or more
You can get him on Amiami for like, $62.
>inb4 shipping
Well, most people buy other shit with their imports anyway.
>>5787280
I'll be sticking with my neca, mostly because I ain't the biggest 54 fan and I don't want to drop another $70+ on him.
The MA looks good though, I'd still say the NECA is more suit-accurate.
>>5787329
I think the only main thing wrong with the NECA is how the pupils look straight ahead.
Good figure overall though
Huh, it's just as dumb the other way.
>>5787351
It looks pretty cool actually, like a 2spooky repaint. Too much orange, though.
Banpresto Shin Godzilla.

What's the issue? Rule 2?
>>5787351

>>5787368

>>5787405
Moden Koto kits are pretty good. You'll be fine as long as you follow the (visual) instructions, no knowledge of Japanese is necessary. I'd recommend hopping over to the Gunpla general and reading their FAQ to prepare yourself and make the kit look as nice as possible.
>>5787559
Fuck that, importing through SAL is like $28 and you have to wait weeks, I can just get it in the morning and save myself the trouble.
Also word has it the Tamashii stand will have GMK for sale.
>>5787562
>$28
Nigger I got him and a bunch of Ultraman Orb vinyls shipped EMS for $23.
>>5787563
okay
>>5787566
>Total price
You need to be clearer.
>>5787567
Gee here I thought "importing through SAL is like $28" is pretty self explanatory when a single vinyl toy obviously wouldn't cost $28 to be shipped through an economic delivery service.

Gigantic Burning Godzilla reveled by Bluefin at G Fest.
Unboxing video: https://youtu.be/0HuOzt9soDI
Comparison between the SDCC version and original release: https://youtu.be/V0P8s_WAIDI
The colors seem to pop out more on the new version, and the tail is fully attached unlike the original release.
Also that packaging is fucking absurd.
>>5788500
I've seen cat poop that looks very similar to him.
>>5788512
I'm actually really impressed with the figure, after the G'14 and MUTO releases I wasn't expecting much in detail, but they knocked it out of the park on a few spots.
The tail has so much definition, especially in the tip with every little mutated detail kept in check, the feet have so many wrinkles + clean paint apps for the nails reminiscent of older figures, and the legs have all kinds of ridges and veiny bulges that seem to pop out more than what i've seen in the trailers itself.
I guess all of this goes without saying considering it's more of an ambitious premium vinyl by Bandai, but I really like it, and It's a little too early to tell for sure but I could see fans preferring this figure to the SHMA Shin Godzilla due to it's simple potency (and the general confusion and negativity surrounding the SHMA's design quirks)
>>5788500
The tip of the tail kind of looks like an Alien chestburster there.

>>5788745

As the OP of this one, I'll continue making threads because I'm okay with sofubis.
Why doesnt the Guardian of the Universe get as much figures as Big G?

Gamera has a ton of merchandise, what the heck are on about?
Even Gamera The Brave had a huge influx of merchandise right after Final Wars, Konami did a huge High Grade series with every monster from the movie (even Gyaos)

How is it sold out?
Aren't they being sold in 7-11 on July 28th?
>>5788512
your mom looks very similar too
>>5788961
No we're not. Its obviously just a diorama they made for the photo shoot.
>>5788498
Man, do I feel badly for you. Went to that cucked up sausage party with no exclusive this year. Fandom Fest and SDCC has more shit to offer Godzilla-wise than Manlet-Fest. It's like a nu male convention every year.

You're getting a 1954 in about two weeks.
>>5790496
Will bandai ever make a non-Goji Godzilla SHMA again now that they've run out of Hesei monsters?
I literally can't remember the last time we got a different kaiju from the franchise aside from re releases
>>5790648
No, because SHMA is for fans of Heisei and Millenium.
>>5790668
Well then how about a Final Wars Goji or Angy or even a Final Wars Ghidorah (that they could later retool to be DeathGhidorah).
>>5790236

I don't understand what this entire post is, I just went this year cause I could finally afford to, and it was fun. I dunno why you're being so mean about it.
(also I think Bluefin was accepting pre-orders for the SDCC Burning Godzilla so that's kind of an exclusive)
>>5790641
And probably the Shin Godzilla afterwards.
But there are so many they haven't made.
>>5790709
Lurk more, then.
>was fun
It hasn't even started, it's just a bunch of overweight oldfags boozing it up with a bunch of Bandais. No women in sight. Can't wait for this year's cringy hotel room wrestling.

>>5790903
And another pic. I usually dislike sofubis for how crappy they look but I must admit G14 and Shin look really cool together.
>>5790903
No, you're retarded. They're going to release it because it's SHMA! The shape of dreams.
>>5790903
The Monster Series G'14 is a pretty underrated figure, I feel like coming out so late made it go under everybody's radar, but the "bulk" of that figure is done much more accurately/better than every other toy of the character.
The detailing leaves a little to be desired but the sculpt is very interesting.
>>5790903
>an SHMA book
is there really enough Monsterart figures to warrant a whole book?...

I'm sorry, anon..
>>5791003
You'll be fine. Those things will be like 15 bucks after the movie tanks critically in a couple weeks. You don't need to suck up to any of the G Fest dealers. You'll just further their egos and worshippers.
>>5791013
I'll suck some dick. That'll work.
>>5791014
Yeah they still have a ton of them, just make sure you get there right as the room opens, they're definitely selling out fast and some people dealers are gonna be cheeky about it.
>>5791024
Out of all the dealers, proxy importers and resellers, I always thought Mike Johnson was the least harmful (unless the very notion of being a self-run dealer bothers you)
I don't recall him ever doing anything cancerous or being a nuisance, just seems like a normal, down to earth guy.

Yeah I've been hearing a few people point out the oddly quiet marketing campaign but August just said Japanese film distributors have a matter of advertisement/hype building typically different from what you see of Hollywood films, so I'll take his word on it.

I thought Burning Goji was the 2.0/Rebirth sculpt.
I'd buy this if I didn't already have Rebirth. It looks a lot nicer now that the spines are entirely burning, but I don't need to get two of the same molds.
>>5791729
That doesn't justify the cost increase. Fucking Bandai shill.

Yeah, Birth ver, Eva Goji, and Ultimate Burning are all repaints of the 1995 mold first used with BG. Not exactly a 2.0

A little overpriced.
>>5792500
Guarantee you that's cheaper than G Fest.
You have to consider the following things, it's about 15 bucks in Japan and EMS costs about 20 bucks to import for that figure. So it's a fair price considering it probably won't be getting a U.S. release.
>>5792512
I paid $30 for mine at the table.
>>5792517
Before or after sucking Mike Johnson's dick for an early deal?
>>5792533
$30-33 isn't terrible though, ordering it through AmiAmi/HLJ is like $28 with just Registered SAL anyway, so missing pre-orders isn't the end of the world (and it'll probably come back in stock like the G'14 vinyl did)
>>5792533
It's a Bandai, nobody is losing any sleep over a shitty dog chew toy. It seriously looks like shit, I'd rather pay top money for the Banpresto whenever someone gets one.

They're known for making what they know will sell, That's all their twitter is, some little shit going "Will you guys make this obscure character???" and then they respond with "Sorry, too niche"
also they straight up have said if they do Zilla it would be because there were no Godzillas left to do.
>>5792028
>Zilla
>Having fanboys
>>5792875
Zilla is a good monster design and the movie was arguably more fun to watch than 2014. I know you faggots just get your jimmies rustled because it's called Godzilla.
>>5792875
Fuck off, Zilla Jr is pretty good
>>5790496
fffffffffffff...
i'll take it.
>>5792888
I think it would have gone over a lot better if the second Jurassic Park movie hadn't just come out the year before. Zilla is basically just a bigger T-Rex, and the babies were velociraptors.
>>5792901
a different title would've helped, actually. It would've shed any expectations.
>>5792888
for some westerners Zilla was our first and only introduction to godzilla, especially those born in the 90s. As a kid the Zilla movie was one of my favorites and it used to run on cable tv quite alot so I saw it more than any other film I have ever seen. I was honestly shocked when I first heard people thought of that movie as a abomonation, I just saw it as a different inerpretationof godzilla.
>>5783865
Why all the hate for Rich Eso and his friends?
>>5793391
I don't really hate him but he is a total fucking shill.
I'm sure if the new movie is shit he'd still defend it to the death too.
>>5792854
This would make a nice wallpaper scheme at some haunted house, that is frighteningly awesome
>>5792868
Just like Bandai.
>>5793020
Same here. All I had when I was younger were VHS tapes of Megalon, All Monsters Attack, and the 1998 one before I was able to get enough cash together to buy more.
Shame Zilla got such a bad rap. Seeing a DEX build Godzilla wrecking shit and then overrunning cities with his babies like a giant xenomorph would be great to see with today's technology.
>>5793834
it was a really good film wasn't it? I was pretty upset when godzilla died and I thought the movie was over but no!! there was much more to come!! and those baby zillas were just like velociraptors...which was one of the best parts of jurrasic park so how can anybody dislike it! its a dam good film
>>5793850
It wasn't a good film even if you take the Godzilla thing out of focus, but the movie does unfairly get shat on.

>>5794932
Too bad the FVL army has first dibs on GFantis. >>5793391
You're talking about a guy who's 5'4", calls himself the leader of the Fresh Vinyl army, has a figure of himself for himself, and forces artists to draw shit like this.
>>5795261
>5'4"
What does that have to do with anything? I get the rest but so what if he's short? Or are you just playing off the manlet meme?
I mean Daniel Radcliffe is 5'4", nobody calls him a "manlet"
>>5794793
That's fucking gross, dude.
>>5795265
manlet detected
you obviously haven't been on /tv/
>>5795271
You still didn't answer my question.
>>5795276
we're all anonymous, im just stating what the rest of the world is thinking about you
if you're a man and you're under 5'10" you might as well kill yourself
fuck
even most women are 5'6"
>>5795271
>you obviously haven't been on /tv/
not him by why the fuck would anyone want to go there?
I get it, you don't like Eso. I'm not a fan of him either, but all this negativity kinda brings down the thread.
>>5795282
Still not an answer.
>>5795293
>>5794667
The texture doesn't look right. Looks like it has a bunch of bug bites.
>>5794932
You seem upset, child.
>>5795267
>not wanting Godzilla's luscious thunderthighs
What a fag.
>>5783865
Is monsterarts Godzilla 2000 worth it bro's?
>>5795628
Looks nothing like 2000 Godzilla, but go ahead.
>>5795628
It's objectively shit value.
Get it if you are a big enough fanboy that the above doesn't matter to you.
>>5795628
He's pretty cool, I like him. He cuts a nice profile.
>>5795628
One of my favorites design-wise. Articulation isn't as good as some of the others though. How much are you gonna pay for it?
Guys did Neca's GMK get delayed to October?
Been hearing conflicting things and Neca's website lists it for October.
Painted prototype for "Gfantis" at G-Fest.
>>5796570
Moguera is the best monsterarts IMO, but you kinda gotta have a thing for fat drill-nosed mole robots. I think the best Godzilla you can still get for a reasonable price is rebirth or the 2k recolor.
Man, this G Fest was extra shitty. Thoughts?
Got him.
>>5797818
LINK?
>>5797818
waaaat?
>>5797818
Oh crap man, nice catch! Enjoy!
How come the NECA 1954 figure is barely showing up on online stores? Did they stop making him or something?
>>5797151
What bothered you about this year? It seemed the same as always, the guest were pretty good too, and Tamashii showed up which was a big deal.
>>5797932
They got like 10 pre orders on their X Plus Burning Godzilla. They are not coming back next year, I can promise you that.
>>5783865
So whats the deal with Toho Kingdom? Never heard about it until I started coming to the /toy/ kaiju threads
>>5798572
Only remaining active G forum from the old days.
Kept alive by people constantly posting in the decade where there were no movies.
So you can imagine how bad things got?
>>5798572
It's a fucking terrible forum but it's the only forum the G community has, it's mostly underaged kids with problems and just happen to like Godzilla. Next best thing would probably be the FB groups but those are infested with a different kind of faggots.
In all fairness as bad as Toho Kingdom is at least it's not Kaiju Phile. It's just sad now for how dead it was but even when it was active you had dozens of fanfic subforums and it was run by butthurt manchildren who would have multi-page arguments with users who disagreed with them.
Will there be MonsterArts of the tadpole and four-legged Godzilla?
>>5798532
Yeah but they sold out on GMK Godzilla 10 minutes when they opened the dealer's room on Friday. Then on Saturday just a little after 1 pm they got their second batch in, sold them for $98 and they went just as quickly.
......
I bought one.
I don't regret it though. I love GMK Godzilla. Plus I got the effect parts (one and two) for $25 each.
>>5799083
I didn't look into the Tamashii booth too closely when I was there. What was the SDCC exclusive pre-order they were advertising on the back of the convention program?
>>5797867
Yep, all of the releases are single runs unless they decide (or toho allows) to reissue them, also it was released nearly a year ago and sold out quickly online so don't expect to find him for retail price anymore.
That said I wish they would repaint him with irl colors like the wizkids minifigure.
>>5798572
It's the cancer killing the western kaiju fandom.
>>5799264
The SDCC exclusive? It was the X-Plus Burning Godzilla going for $499 they had it on display the entire con.
If you bought anything at their booth they threw in a poster of that MonsterArts Heisei Godzilla that has light-up parts and sound-effects. But i'm guessing it was the former you were asking about not this later one.
>>5799304
Yeah, it was.
For some reason I was thinking it would be the Eva 01 Rebirth Godzilla MA, didn't consider that X-Plus.
>>5799288
I'd say the Godzilla Collector's Group contributes a lot to the cancer as well. G Fest turned more a bro hangout than anything Godzilla related. I mean, when's the last time any of the suit actors even bothered stopping by? They just get that washed out American from that one film and literal whos showing up. I know they got Bin this year and that's cool but he'll be at Fandom with 4 Godzilla suit actors and Shinji in two weeks.
>>5799518
Bacon, man, it's been four years, you gotta let it go.
>>5799608
Nah man, it is.
NEW TRAILER
PURPLE BEAM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M89VLZgo1Vg&feature=youtu.be&app=desktop
>>5799631
>>5799631
>>5799647
ARE YOU READY /toy/??
>>5799631
compare Godzilla to the buildings at 0:12, it's fucking massive.
I really like how fucked up he looks, like he's rotting or something. I'm still not sure it's a good idea to let Anno do his thing, though.
I just hope the 'leaked' script isn't real.
>>5799689
What's the leaked script this time?
Clear, full body shot of the "Gfantis" figure.
Supposedly there's a Kickstarter on the way for production of it.
>>5799608
Who the fuck is Bacon? Greg Cordaro? I know he fucks pigs and shit.
>>5799842
I very much doubt the final product will be done this well. Steve is a wizard with that airbrush but there's no way we're getting enough to meet demand without some suffering in the paint.
>>5799631
I wish his head didn't flop around like Elmo's.
>>5799631
Man this movie is really diverse in its action.
Godzilla walks on buildings, and people shoot at him.
Whoa.
>>5799900
It's a fucking Godzilla movie, do you want him to do backflips? Should he do some parkour as well?
>>5799912
Could you throw in a bunch Godzilla babies modeled after raptors while your at it? And fish a shit load of fish please.
>>5799518
Apparently there was an issue between those who run G-fest and the guys that set up the suit actors coming to American cons. The fresh vinyl guys treat G-fest like their own frat hang out but aside from them it's fun
>>5799900
I thought the same when I saw the first trailer. It looks like the most by-the-books Godzilla movie we've seen in a while, even if Godzilla looks like he's rotting. There's really not much you can do with a giant indestructible lizard, apparently. Hopefully the trailers are leaving out anything good because otherwise it looks like the same committees, military outposts, and/or scientists talking. Then tanks and helicopters shoot Godzilla in the face.
>>5799912
>>5800115
You guys aren't tired of the same things? Can't you watch '85 and get the same experience? The trailer makes it look like the same movie.
>>5799660
>>5799647
well this pose makes more sense now
>>5800162
>the trailer makes it look like the same movie.
no shit. Anno is part of this you retard.
if anything I'm worried it'll be nothing like Godzilla.
can I preorder this guy anywhere yet?
http://tamashii.jp/item/11448
Early reviews out of Nipponland say this new Godzilla film is pure kaijukino.
>>5800920
Are you incapable of looking yourself?
>>5800924
So it sucks? That figures.
This is not fair, it's too cruel.
I finally see an articulated jet Jaguar toy in 6 inch form and he's a WF Garage Kit that I will never own.
>>5800920
Yes, several places. If you have money to burn, go for it. Imma wait for it to come out and then get it 30-40 bux cheaper.
>>5801211
You're gonna be sorely disappointed.
>>5800131
The guys who set up the suit actors are pretty based. I've got nothing but love for them. Fuck the G Fest organizers. They're outdated and it's just a convention for scalpers to flip whatever shit they got from Yahoo Japan or any Diamond X Plus they bought for inventory.
>>5801378
>The guys who set up the suit actors are pretty based. I've got nothing but love for them
Yeah they are totally awesome guys. G-fest dealers aren't all bad it's just that certain ones really scalp hard to make a cash at the con
>>5801892
That was a one time fluke with a small window of opportunity.
>>5801940
For an insane low price, sure, but Gigan was 40 bux for months.
>>5800189
Still doesn't come with any effect parts for the low, low price of 10k yen.
Look at filename
It is the year of our lord and savior
>>5802837
I can't make it out.
>>5802842
It's Shin.
>>5802843
Is it? I really can't tell. Cool though. $20 is a fuckton better than Bandai's rape prices.
>>5801254
Lel so are you.
Get ready for quality paint apps :^)
preview for you. shin-godzilla prototype top right.
>>5802837
Look at filename
>>5802865
Fucking idiot, just circle it
>>5802851
>>5802867
I see it, but I can't tell what it is because of the glare. Fuck you shiteater.
>>5802865
NECA is finally making Space Marines!!
but it's the shitty Starcraft ones :(
This fucker got delayed didn't he.
>>5802885
>shitty Starcraft ones
Just take your shit opinion and go home, anon.
>>5802896
Welcome to earlier this month.
>>5802896
Is it Neca?
Was it delayed?
The answer is the same for both questions.
>>5802907
Well I never saw an official press release if there was one.
The end of the month is my birthday and he was gonna be a present (to myself). Bummer.
>>5802867
Neat. If paint is decent and mouth appropriately crazy then 80bux saved.
Wish they'd do Final War or vs Kong tho.
>>5802926
>Wanting final wars "Ratface"Zilla.
I mean I love that movie but come on son.
>>5802940
All Godzillas are beautiful, my dude.
>>5802865
Which Pacrim kaiju is that one?
NECA's doing Shin Godzilla? Thank God. I just saved like a hundred bucks. Good stuff.
>>5802837
I'm so fucking excited for this, more than I was for the bandai one.
>>5802979
Hardship, he mounts and destroys Romeo Blue.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyojUV29xuQ
>>5801199
I saw the prototype at G-fest. It actually looks really nice. I recommend it. As for possibility, it looks like your standard vinyl fig.
I'm hoping the paint turns out nicely on it.
>>5803001
Thanks Anon, he looks nice.
Neca does it!
>>5803056
What happen with the neck?
>>5803056
Sculpt looks pretty nice.
Okay I'm tempted to get a Gamera and a Gyaos figure.
I know Monsterarts has only released a 90s Gamera, while Revoltech has 90s and Showa versions of Gyaos and Gameras each.
Which is the better Gamera figure and which Gyaos should I get?
So which one is worth to have in a collection?
>>5803239
SHMA 96 and Revo Super Gyaos, or both Revo Showas.
>>5803001
>and destroys Romeo Blue.
Nah, it's the other way around. Romeo wins.
>>5803056
Damn, it looks so fucking amazing! Pic is ants but I believe it has balljointed tail, right? I hope it is as I don't believe a bendywire would fit for its sinuous shape.
>>5803288
My bad, since Hardship lapdances on that hard fin of his I thought they killed each other but you're right, actually Romeo is still around by the time Knifehead surfaces.
>>5803441
Looks like wire, not even one spot where it could look like joints. Unless they suddenly are much better at hiding them which I doubt
>>5803056
why... why did they make him the wrong shape?
>>5803056
the neck looks way too short.
And the tail looks like the length that the other figures should have had, which is still too short for this specific Godzilla
legs looks great though
>>5803239
I just love my Gamera 3 bandai figure
>>5803056
Siqq
>>5802955
Well I'm not sure I would go *that* far...
>ANIME-ISLAND HASN'T SHIPPED MY GMK MONSTERARTS
WHAT THE FUCK
>>5806082
I want a figure of that Godzilla so bad
Is NECA 1954 Godzilla worth $40? I love my 2014 and 1984 figures, but can't get myself to buy him for that price. It's the cheapest I can find though, so not sure what to do.
>>5806734
$20 increase from general retail price huh?...Thays tough, but if you don't plan on getting the 1954 SHMA for like $20 more, I'd say go for it.
NECA's 1954 is generally considered their best Godzilla release to date, so if you love their 2014 and their 1984 you'll definitely love the 1954
WHAT
THE
FUCK
>>5807647
>>5807650
>>5807652
I want it
>>5803239 The Revoltech Gameras are pretty cool. and Hands down the 90's Gyaos is great.
>>5803239
But I would highly suggest you get a Monsterarts Gamera. Really hoping Monsterarts produces some Gamera Monsters to Go with him.
>>5806717
Get the memorial box vinyl. It's pretty cheap since all the young collectors don't want it
>>5807955
At G-Fest I saw some dude put down $100 on the G'62 Memorial Box release (he tried to get a deal going but the vendor just wasn't having it) and it blew my mind.
I get that the design is popular and the Memorial Box releases generally have high demand, hence sellers love selling the pieces out of box, but it fascinates me how hard vinyl collectors will go.
I have a strict "under $100" rule for Bandai vinyl releases, I'd never feel comfortable knowing I paid that much, I'll just have to go without the Mechani Kong and Kamakuras (which ironically now has an X-Plus that cost left than the average Bandai market price)
>>5807650
Too bad it's gonna be a gorillion dollars.
>>5807841
I just got GMK in too. He's a big fucking guy, and the sculpt/paint job is superb.
>>5807841
What are those buildings your Gyaos are on top of? Are they Tomytech?
>>5808264
yup
>>5808126
How are the ball-joints? Pop off too easy?
>>5808377
The legs are super solid, as are the tail and neck joints. The shoulders and arms are looser, but not to the point of popping off like Godzilla rebirth.
>>5803056
Better quality image
>>5808434
Fuck, SHMA btfo
>>5808889
Bandai vinyls have better detail than NECA, their texturing looks horrible.
>>5808894
>their texturing looks horrible
NECA hasnt had a good record with Godzilla's skin texture, I agree for the most part. They usually make the area in between the scales too shallow, but thats really the only matter of detail the vinyls beat NECA in, but also NECA's Godzillas have been improving, and the detailing on their new Shin Godzilla looks great so far.
>>5808942
>but thats really the only matter of detail the vinyls beat NECA in
Nigga stop pretending you collect anything other than SHMA and NECA
>>5807650
Thumbnail made me think it's Zilla and now i am eternally disappointed :')
>>5808950
What other detail do the vinyls do better then? Because last time I checked a lot of those vinyls dont even have each tooth sculpted individually
Anyonebgot Neca Mutavore? How is he? Man I just can't decide if I am getting it or not. Looks so hit or miss with Neca
>>5806759
I was able to get him for $30 online (including shipping), I'm very happy! I'm excited, and have the re-released Bandai 2000 vinyl coming in as well!
>>5809022
Got a good chuckle out of me
