Likely undergoing more improvements, but also due o Frozen Shin' s announcement, KKK Shin is likely to be officially announnced after Frozen's release or at least announced after Frozen's preorder window closes.

Same situation between Poster MG and MG74, they didn't want these figures to compete with each other in sales.

You know what's really strange?? I don't think Tamashii even cares about the S.H.MonsterArts line anymore at this point. Because I've looked all over the freaking place, Instagram, toyark, many other sites and there were literally no S.H.MonsterArts figures on display at New York toy fair. The other lines such as pacific rim and S.H.Figuarts were there but absolutely no SHMA on display. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this is the first time the whole line has not shown up on display at Toy Fair. To me that's a bad sign because I think they may axe the line. Obviously I know I'm thinking way too deep into that but still. Kind of shows they don't care about the line anymore. All the more reason to keep complaining to them on Instagram. And I say that's a bad sign because god forbid they start ALL OVER AGAIN with Heisei. Again I seriously want to know what is going on behind the scenes involving this line. Why are they always releasing mediocre products? Why are they neglecting this line so much at conventions? They used to get displayed on awesome dioramas but now nothing. This line is pretty much dead at this point. I'm praying for Kiryu Goji right now.

Your quick answer: There's nothing at Toy Fair because there isn't anything upcoming that's being released in the USA.

Are there lots of import only lines showcased at Toy Fair currently? That’s apparently what Monsterarts has become until Godzilla vs Kong....

People bitch to god damn much

If they're no longer importing Godzilla, or even things like the Spacegodzilla/Little G two pack, that doesn't leave much for them to reveal.

Well damn. I thought too hard and looked way too deep into it. That's what I get for over thinking and for being extremely OCD :lol:

The simple answer is usually the right one.

Well, for some people a lot, others not so much.

You know it’s bad, but still crossing my fingers on that 2002 figure. A hundred dollars, better be worth it I swear.

I think I asked this earlier but I couldn’t get an answer. Is the Mechagodzilla figure good or not. Seems mediocre from what I can tell with the air of plain paint.
This is the beginning of the end.

Is this the NECA thread now? Tamashii doesn't have a say in what gets imported, Warner Brothers (apparently) does. You wanna know why there's no SHMA at ToyFair? Because WB isn't allowing G2002 to come over to America.

Aye, that'll show 'em.

Oh no, Tamashii didn't showcase anything at an American toy event! This line is being NEGLECTED!
TheMariobros17 wrote:This line is pretty much dead at this point.
Despite having just released two brand new figures and having at least two more in the pipeline. Totally dead.

Man, we have too many Chicken Littles on this forum. One no-show at ToyFair (again, a predominantly American convention) doesn't mean the line is dying or that Tamashii is neglecting it. The line is still going on in its primary country and new releases are being blocked because WB is in a huffy about something Godzilla-related. It's not just SHMA, NECA's feeling the pressure too.

Chill everyone lol. I over thought. I admit I freaked out for no reason at all. And that was a bit unprofessional on my end. I should've thought twice before typing that. :oops:

Btw my thoughts on the SpaceG set. Bleh. I think it looks mediocre as hell. It would've helped if it got more paint shading (and better quality control let's not forget that). And red on SpaceGs crystals. Because those photos and that paint make it look like someone pissed on them. Sorry for the random thoughts all the sudden I just have a bad habit of getting my opinion out there no matter how many pages back the said topic was.

I decided to paint Little Godzilla's eyes red. I also painted yellow dots on Mothra's wings.

I'm sorry for just raging. I was trying to say that i am mad at Wanner bros that they are not letting the figures come to the U.S. but they made a good godzilla movie and king kong film. And this is what they do to us.

Is the Shin Godzilla 2nd and 3rd forms set worth it at all, or is the QC consistently god-awful (with standard SHMA QC being meh at best).

Last I heard, the set overall isn't worth the full price of admission. The 2nd form is the better of the two, with just below average paint app and not much in the way of articulation, while the 3rd form's paint job consistently looks quite awful, but has surprisingly great articulation.
