Ouch! I had no intention to spend what it will take to get the online exclusive, until I saw that modified base.Planetxman wrote:

Re: 2013 X-Plus Vinyl Figures Discussion Thread
The Ric-Boy base for Kumonga reminds me of fried eggs. XD
I hope an actual Kamacuras figure will be included in the 25cm line someday. It's definitely a shoe-in now considering that Godzilla '67 (and Minilla), and Kumonga '67 are now included. I'm not interested in Albatross' figure. It's sculpted out of polystone and I am afraid that'll be SUPER fragile. Vinyl all the way!
Anyways, I just got my 30cm Godzilla 2004 this morning! Check out my review: http://kaijuplanet.blogspot.com/2013/06 ... eries.html

Just saw Caesar on Ebay, goddamn that figure is breathtaking! Not a big Caesar fan but that figure is fantastic!

Yeah, Ceesar is getting alot of love. I'm not a big fan of this Kaiju either, but I'll probably still buy this figure.

Ok I finally pulled the trigger and ordered both King Seesar and Komunga. I decided that I didn't need either exclusive so instead reserved them through Hobby Search. Anyone getting the exclusives?

I'm getting the exclusives. I wanted the webbed-up Kamakiras base and since I was getting that, decided to go for the alternate ears KC as well. I don't really care about the idol so much.

Re: 2013 X-Plus Vinyl Figures Discussion Thread
This may sound insane, but I may try to heat up the ears on King Seesar and see if I could reposition them to point upward. I would have to be gentle and clamp them in place for some time. Just a thought.Brad Simmons wrote:Good man! You won't be sorry.GCrusher wrote:Ok I finally pulled the trigger and ordered both King Seesar and Komunga.

I'm snagging the exclusives. The exclusives on the 25cm figures seem to interest me more than the exclusives on the 30cm figs.

Re: 2013 X-Plus Vinyl Figures Discussion Thread
They are cool, I'll admit that. Though I don't recall a webbed Kamacarus in SOG so the exclusive while cool I don't see it as necessary. Still, props to XPlus for coming up with something, as sometimes the exclusive are must haves for me. Though the exclusive they should have made with Komunga should have been a webbed up Minya.MasonWerx wrote:I'm snagging the exclusives.

Re: 2013 X-Plus Vinyl Figures Discussion Thread
In the film, Kumonga subdued one of the Kamacuras with his web, then killed it with his poisonous bite. So the exclusive is definitely accurate...GCrusher wrote:They are cool, I'll admit that.

It would be cool if an X-plus rep that speaks English joined the facebook group. But he'd probably think that we're a bunch of wackos as we flooded him with our demands, LoL!GCrusher wrote:

Re: 2013 X-Plus Vinyl Figures Discussion Thread
X-Plus has provided high-res images and product specs for their July giant monster figures.

And, to confirm what ebirahsmeg1 posted, the webbed-up Kamakiras is in SON OF GODZILLA. The X-Plus exclusive got that right.

While the RicBoy Exclusives for both figures look great, I'll be sticking to standards as always.
