Got a better hypothetical, Tamashii gives you the choice...

SHMA Giant Octopus, Giant Condor, or Giant Rat from Latitude Zero

Who do you pick?

Sarcastic or not, an articulated Octopus would work well for Frankenstein Conquers the World, Leagues under the Sea and King Kong vs Godzilla.

Plus it'd make great use of MA joints.

I'd go Octopus and Angurius for the above two answers.
Mothra vs Godzilla> Gojira

Giant Condor, obviously. It at least fought Godzilla.

I hate to turn down a GMK Baragon, but I'm firmly in Camp Anguirus. And while I wouldn't be terribly excited about any of the other three, I suppose... hmm. That's actually kind of hard. The Giant Condor :shock:, I suppose, mostly because it's more unique looking than Oodako, who was literally just an actual octopus crawling around the set for many of his scenes.

Oh god. I'd rather have another rebirth repaint than any of those three.

It's a tough one but I gotta go GMK Baragon.
Why not both? I would just hope that they'd be less than $80 because recent S.H. MonsterArts prices are annoyingly high, especially considering Web Exclusives.

Showa Anguirus it is, however. I prefer Anguirus overall.

Even as a joke, the Giant Octopus. It appeared at least twice. Too bad the articulation wouldn't be exactly seamless, though. Giant Condor is a close second. I'd prefer that none of these are actually made.
I'd change my username if I had the chance. It's a typo. It's supposed to be "66," and it's a very unfortunate thing to have on my account. Please help. :lol:

Hey now, don’t sh¡t on my boy, the octopus. Show him some respect, he’s appeared three times and was cut from Final Wars.

Not like that matters though, the correct answer was Giant Rat.

We could only hope they’d re-release it in a couple years as “The Giant Eagle”

What about Giant Lizard from King Kong vs Godzilla? I'm appalled you excluded him.

I thought about the Skeleturtle but remembered it was revealed that it was actually intended to be a prop of turtle bones blowing in the wind instead of an actual living (or undead) creature, so it doesn’t count :P

Giant Octopus is a godamned legend. How many other monsters can say they shared the screen with King Kong and Godzilla? Not to mention Gargantuas and being in the Kiryu timeline and technically reprising his role in Skull Island.

And while, Anguirus is my boy, I'd honestly prefer a GMK Baragon. Though I'd rather get a GMK Mothra and/or Ghidorah ;)

Octopus. Three films under his belt, more use for articulation.

Also, maybe an unpopular opinion, but I'd totally buy the octopus and condor. Not even as a joke.

At NECA or Bandai vinyl prices, I'd consider the octopus and condor. At SHMA prices? Probably not even if I won the lottery.

Mmm I never thought I'd buy a SHMA figure but I did for Godzilla KOTM and I got King Ghidorah pre-ordered from BigBadToys. Damn now I'm eyeing the Gamera 3 figure.

I told myself I just wanted that beautiful G2000 and that was it.



....14-15 SHM figures later.....

Oh Christ that's nothing! Well okay SHM are way more expensive but in terms of quantity my collection AAAAALL started because I wanted the Neca Coyote Tango and Cherno Alpha...then I got every PR Neca thing...then I got the gimmick super sized Godzilla 2014. Then everything with PR Uprising, got the Neca KOTM stuff pre-ordered. Plus Neca Shin Godzilla and spitting varient, GMK Neca plus spitting variant, then the Neca 62.
I need to get a nice standing glass case because all these guys are standing around.
I actually really want a SHMA of Gamera 2 Gamera since that's my favorite design. I know everyone is gaga for Gamera 3 but 2 is the best in my eyes but 3 is still kinda newish it seems and cheaper. Plus it ISa very very wicked design...I just don't like the arms that much. Gamera 2 Gamera is the perfect blend of heroic and bad ass.
