He's okay. He looks a helluva lot better with the cape on. Without it his true scrawniness comes out. Unless you're a rabid Zoffy fan I recommend waiting for Ultraman before blowing the sixty or so dollars I see this thing going for. I am relatively disappoint.

Let's just say I could almost have bought another figure for the price. Of course if I didn't ship EMS... I blame Japan for being so far away, not my inability to wait the extra weeks.

They might. Moggy's nowhere near as popular as Mechagodzilla, and he was clearanced out.

Wow, you even splurged for two mantles, huh? I only ordered one since I've got one for my first release Hayata already, but I'm kinda thinking of getting one for Ultraseven as well.

I dunno, I'm a pretty rabid Zoffy fan and that sculpt just looks leagues better than the first Hayata...Eh, it's in the mail; I'll see soon enough.

I'm curious about the Moguera though. How is it? Heisei Moguera is the least interesting mecha/kaiju in the entire series IMO, but much like the Heisei Mechagodzilla (which I never cared for) looking at the MA is making it kind of grow on me.

It's actually fantastic. I very much prefer it to the Mechagodzilla. There's just so much to it that it actually is a value despite the relatively high price tag. And I agree with you about Heisei MOGUERA. However, the figure is a lot more fun than the actual, in-film mech.

I ordered an M1 Biollante and Yamanaya Astromons. Had my eye out for the Astromons for a while, and the shop also had a fairly good price on the Biollante, so I picked it up, too.

AAARRRGHH! My uncle kept procrastinating in getting my mail while I'm away on vacation, so I get the notification that my X-Plus MechaGodzilla has been sent back to the sender.... SECOND FREAKING TIME ALREADY! I'm so pissed. Well, I have no choice but to keep trying to send it again once it gets back to Hobby Search by the end of next week. What a 'perfect' way to start my Friday morning.

WOOOOOWWWWWW... It seriously goes all the way back to Japan? Man, they couldn't just hold on to it at the post office or something?

I might be buying something later today... Something big.

I live on Guam, which is a mere skipping stone away from Japan, so it's not as bad as it seems...

But still. Once it gets back I'm just going to send it to my current vacation address. It's just getting ridiculous. Sad thing is that I have my X-Plus 30cm Godzilla '89, SH MonsterArts Little Godzilla, Ultra-Act Ultraman Hayata 2.0, SH MonsterArts Fire Rodan, and my X-Plus 30cm Varan shipping to Guam before I get back in early August, so now I'm worried as heck that my uncle will keep on forgetting! I'll just have to keep bugging him to check the post office whenever my boxes get in.

In talks of buying a Bandai Large Scale Godzilla 91 re-issue for $75. What do you guys think of the figure?

It's definitely a neat figure. I have the original, but I bought it loose without the box years ago. It's an eye-catching figure and one of the largest figures I have, just under my Ultimate GINO figure. For $75.... I personally find that a good deal. Go for it.

On another subject, my cousin got lucky and managed to get ahold of my X-Plus 25cm MechaGodzilla before it was to be 'shipped back to sender.'
So I'm happy!

We got a badass over here!

Sorry... just had to keep up with the memes!

I really gotta start slowing down with my buying unfortunately. Especially since money will be tight on my end in the latter half of this year. However, I still have a lot to look forward to this summer. Besides already receiving my SHMA Mogera, and X-Plus 25cm MechaGodzilla (which is at my home on Guam right now), I still have my SHMA Little Godzilla, SHMA Fire Rodan, Ultra-Act Hayata 2.0, X-Plus 30cm Godzilla '89, and X-Plus 30cm Varan coming in this summer, and Ultra-Act Red King at the end of August, and SHMA KG at the end of September. So yeah... got myself a massive haul that is still yet to come. :mrgreen:

... and I had to get it since it would have been gone if I waited. Put in an order for a Daisenso Goji by Gigabrain. xD God damn it. See you guys at the poorhouse.

Hopefully they didn't sell it already. He'd go nicely with my Ghidorah when I get it probably next week.

I won a Y-MSF Megalon for $38, not bad since the only other one is $70 over at Tempting Toys and Collectibles.

I've never been a fan of Tempting Toys because of those prices of theirs. They have a decent selection, but I've been able most of what they carry elsewhere at significantly lower cost.

They do overprice a lot of them, I've only bought one figure from there, a Bandai Fake Godzilla. I'll probably buy a Kumonga from there in the near future.
