If only Bandai could do a 6" figure that looked this good...

And some nice vinyl there for Uncanny. The GID Gigan is M1 right? What's the Hedorah?


Thanks! And that it is. Its a glow version of the reproduction figure.

And the Hedorah is a Toygraph release, my favorite of their Toho figures. They're the same company that did the Godzilla tanks and such.

Good catch Legion!
THIS is WAY COOLER than the monsterarts. Great Figure, beautiful sculpt.
Difficult to find nowadays for a good price.

I just won this auction, and I'm planning to sell off the Ghidorah, hopefully for around the $30 range to justify my purchase of the Godzillasaurus. There's been too many times where I've let things that I've wanted slip past, because they were sold in lots when in hindsight, I could have easily resold all the unwanted items to recoup the costs. I've been kicking myself time and time again for missing out on this lot in particular http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&item=320859600822&nma=true&rt=nc&si=KnCJH2KwgW89cB0P9WGQf%252BsPrTE%253D&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc#ht_500wt_1413. I really wanted that Orga but I was unsure if I could sell of the rest for a minimum of $110. I feel really dumb for missing out on that one.

But can he dance? I agree, though. Those walking DX movie tie ins are sooooo cool. This one in particular was an almost buy for me. Couldn't find it in my (non SHM ) price range and it's too big. If I get the room (a possibility since the Mrs. and I are looking at a house) I'm probably gonna back track and get the DX walkers. In general, they're a lot nicer than the Bandais. Especially this one and the Destoroyah.

@Legion- he probably meant in the standard 6 inch line.

My Marmit Monster Heaven Godzilla 2003 finally arrived!

It's my first Marmit, and I've already fell in love with it! Personally when it comes to Marmits, the figures for the Showa and Millennium kaiju look the best. Now I am awaiting for my other Marmit purchase - the Vinyl Paradise Godzilla 1954 - to come in. Hopefully by Friday.

I mean an easily affordable soft vinyl figure, not a really expensive Super-articulate one.

Does anyone agree that the poster art for the Heisei films is much more impressive than the films themselves?

One of my favorite all time Godzilla movie posters painted by Ohrai-san. How much did you spend on this reproduction poster?

$20 for a 24x36 poster. Not a bad deal at all :-)

Went into a shop in LA that had a Gigabrain '62 Godzilla listed on their eBay page, hoping I could pick it up. Turns out they sold it back in January but failed to take down the listing...? Pretty annoying blunder, but that's life. I'll keep looking for one.

I picked up a few Ultra kaiju instead.

No, not at all! Great catch!

Unfortunately my version of this poster has fold lines in it - it came as an insert with the Volume Two "Making Of" book.

Still a gorgeous poster, though!

Ah, I forgot about that store. The prices aren't too appealing, though....

Well the thing that matters most is that you HAVE it regardless. I'm gonna seek out some more awesome posters, unfortunately, my kaiju room is starting to get filled with poster. I don't have much room left lol

My Powered Gomora came in today.......
He is okay except for a little paint scuff on his horn, missing one of his elbow spikes and one of his spikes on his belly his missing. Doesn't bother me a bit.

Oh I completely agree, but that is the only store I know about in the state of IL. I tried to hold off buying stuff from the store last summer before G-Fest, and when I arrived to G-Fest the vendors had stuff from Monster Island toys that was like maybe 10 dollars cheaper than that of the store. But, I was happy to get my Cloverfield figure from there, i didn't see any at G-Fest other than the Monster Island Toys vendor that had one.

Just ordered a Fake Godzilla from Tempting Toys and Collectibles. $70, but I had some extra money, so I decided to get this.
