I checked four different Walmarts in my area in MA yesterday. Three were entirely sold out, one had two 11” Godzillas, one 11” Kong (which I nabbed), and one 6” Heat Ray Godzilla.

Collectors or kids (or scalpers...), it’s heartening to this old Godzilla fan to see these selling so well.

Supercharged Godzilla with Fighter Jet has been added to the official line-up on the Playmates website, along with better images. I guess they renamed Godzilla X-Treme after all.

I'm not sure how it's meant to be a supercharged Godzilla, but it sure looks cool. Seems like he throws the jet via a gimmick feature.

I feel like it's meant to replicate the part where he swats the jets with his hands?

I initially looked at it as his pose when he's seconds away from blowing his atomic ray into the Hollow Earth, or when he goes all "crocodile mode" and you just swivel the legs forward to accomplish the pose.

No, but speak of the devil...

Someone in a Facebook group I'm in found Jet Jaguar (group is called "Godzilla / Kaiju Figures custom/budget effects parts and diorama displays").

No reply yet from the poster on where they found it / where they live (might be Alaska?).

SciFi Japan has nice big pics -

I really like the standard Godzilla w/ heat ray, Kong w/ battle-axe and Mechagodzilla w/ HEAV.

Nice work. While you're at it, maybe you could work your magic on NECA renewing their Godzilla license?
