Monster Hunter looks pretty cool... but I've never heard of it.

Simple formula: You take big weapon, hit the big monster with it until it dies, care its body to make more armors and weapons, take the new armors and weapons out on hunts to kill monsters, hit it until it dies, wash, rinse, repeat.

This monster is the pseudo wyvern known as the Tigrex. It lives in harsh conditions, such as mountain tops and deserts. It is HIGHLY aggressive and glows slightly red when mad. It can roar really loud and send hunters flying back. Very interesting monster.
Image

This monster is called Lagiacrus. It is known as a Leviathan, preferring to go in the water, but enjoys sunbathing on the beach. It can channel electricity on its back and release it as an electric pulse, covering a WIDE area, along with being able to shoot electric balls from his mouth.
Image

This is a Jiinouga, the Thunder Wolf Wyvern. Kinda is what it sounds; a wolf that can harness the power of electricity. Fast and agile.

And this.....

This is Dviljho

So, yeah. I'm SUPER excited to see what else comes of this new line! :D

I honestly thought the monster in the picture was called Monster Hunter. :lol:

Sounds pretty interesting. So, would that figure be of the Tigrex?

No, it would be of the first flagship (or version mascot, similar to Charizard of Pokemon Red version) monster of Monster Hunter, Rathalos.

Don't wanna post more images to clog up the thread. The version on the right looks to be the version of Rathalos they are basing the sculpt off of.

There is a hunter in a suit of armor below the last picture of Rathalos, and it would be a Revoltech of a hunter wearing Rathalos armor.

I'm thinking Diablos is getting one. It's been in every game, right?

And MHP3rd... I don't know. That rumor has been floating around for the past month or so, but it was "announced" VERY informally by Sony and not Capcom. I'm not really thinking so. With all of the weight on 3G, what with official translations of the names for Bracchidios and Urc... Urci... Whatever, the bunny in the Tundra, methinks Nintendo is the future for MH games.

Anyway, it is pretty clear Kaiyodo isn't done with Monsters, and evidenced by this. Here's to the future of this line! :D

Ratholos could be Megaguirus' reptilian brother! :lol: Just kidding.

Honestly, I LOVE dragons, & that Ratholos is one kickin' Wyvern-type!!! I want one!

I got my Mothra in the mail today. It's pretty cool, though I can see why some people would be concerned about its fragility--I had trouble getting the abdomen off to mount it on the tower and was afraid of snapping the legs. D;

Very pretty, though. It makes a fine display piece.
Now it's dark...

I like my Mothra too. The one gripe I have on this fig., is that it should have been a little bigger. It looks WAY out of scale with the other Toho kaiju in the line.

BTW, Kaiyodo, when are we gonna get a Barugon, to go with the Classic Gamera & Classic Gyaos? :eh:

I'll be buying my Heisei Gamera and Showa Gigan soon today.
But I have to ask, how big are they?

^Gamera, on the smaller side. Showa Gyaos, more in line with 6" figures...

Thanks, but I believe I said Gigan not Gyaos.

Just bought the Revoltech Anguirus for $54.00 (that's with shipping) through Amazon.com. It'll be shipped next week.
I wanted to buy it together with Mothra, Gigan, and Rodan, but the price was a racket, so I'm spacing out my purchases of these.

I still think the proportions when it comes to the arms and legs on that Gigan are just painful. :(

I know. I tried ebay where I found it for $30.00 from a guy in Tokyo with a $16.00 fee for shipping, but they wouldn't ship to Guam, which pissed me off.
So I ended up paying $47.00 on Amazon plus shipping. I would complain, but I keep remembering that I've paid a lot more for a lot less in the past.
