I always wondered why the hell BANDAI would issue a character as popular as Burning Godzilla as a limited item and even only outside of Japan. Now it's clear. And likely that we'll get the real Burning Goji as a regular release at some point. Hopefullly paired with an adult Destroyah then. But first I must find a way to get the SDCC Meltdown Goji to Germany for a reasonable price... -_-

Voted Charizard. LOL

If I had another vote I'd say King Kong.

If I had a third vote I'd say more Evangelion Angels.
Now it's dark...

I was really expecting (burning?) Godzilla or the one with the flame pattern on normal deco. So this is a pretty cool surprise.


There are two other photos of the exclusive on my site: http://www.poeghostal.com/2012/05/tamas ... usive.html

Voted for Godzilla '98 in the survey, I'd like a nice smaller figure of him. Wasn't thrilled with the options, though.

The "meltdown" exclusive is pretty. I might be more tempted to get one of those than the normal releases, if they were widely available. As it stands, SHM still hasn't hooked me.

The real trick is, what all will come with him? Will it be like rodan where he comes with something so awesome we must have it now?

I think it'll be just simply the figure itself. Hence the price of $55.

^It probably doesn't even come with an effect. Not that it's a big deal at all...

Why do they say Cloverfield yet it's not in the poll?

Oh my god it is simply awesome. I was sitting in Starbucks looking at my girlfriend's Blackberry, checking my newsfeed, and good LORD did I jump.

Also, LOL. First Goji was $67.99 at release, and this one is $55.

Also, I love the fact they're considering Pokemon for the MA line. LOL. Figma gets Samus and Link, but the BIG, GUARANTEED profitable IP might go to Tamashii.

Whenever we have a closed poll, it means there are choices on the list that already have prototypes/or preliminary design work done and there is a need to evaluate if it should proceed...or not. We will have another poll the following week where voters can offer their own suggestions and vote for multiple monsters. There's a few monsters on our current list that need a green or red light so Tamashii Nations can best focus their energies.

OHHHH yeah, I'm expecting to pay close to $100 for this bad boy. Though, I can't help but feel that there's gonna be some leftovers for a little while. I mean, you can still get the SDCC Rockman X release for <$60, and Goku is.... at Goku-level prices :lol:

I'm NOT gonna lie, though, MA Pokemon figures would be sweet. Poor Kaiyodo, though, they make sweet figurines of quite a few, then Tamashii swoops in a few years later and makes articulated Pokemon figures.

Dear god. Zilla. DO IT NOW. I will love MA forever!
Don't try to be something else. Don't try to be less. Great things are going to happen in your life. Great things. And with that will come great responsibility.

Yeah, I want a Zilla. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE him a lot, even if the movie was okay. Ever since I found my 6" broken Trendmasters figure, I've been craving for an awesome Zilla figure in scale with the rest of my 6 inchers.

Haha, Thank god the prices for Goku has not reached over 9000 yet ... XD.

If they do make Pokemon figures for this series that would be pretty sweet actually. I may not be into it any more but I wouldnt mind picking up a SHMA Charizard for old times sake.

Revoltech has just had their thunder stolen thats for sure.

Well, Kaiyodo made little figurines, they're not full-blown Revoltechs. It is pretty clear, though, that Tamashii KNOWS they're hotshit now in the Monster department and want to get into every nook and cranny possible. I would not be surprised if Tamashii pulls a few strings at Capcom to get the rights to Monster Hunter and take them away from Kaiyodo. It isn't impossible, since Rockman/Megaman IS a Capcom property.

Kinda sad, though. Revoltech figures are really great, and they shouldn't be pushed entirely out of the Monster market, buuuttt... Tamashii does have an amazing track record so far. Revoltech figures are great, but I am FRIGHTENED to fiddle with mine and I feel something will break (I'm looking at you, wires!). I have NO fear with my MonsterArts.

But, since I see some lurkers... ;)

Rathalos, Alatreon, Deviljho, Lagiacrus, Cloverfield, Godzilla 98, King Kong, Zekrom, Reshiram, Salamence, Garchomp, Lugia, Mewtwo, and quite a few others would be sweet in this line.
