These are mini vinyl figures. Not the normal sized 6" figures. They are about 3 to 4 inches tall.

[RedZillaKing]

Who would've thought we'd get two Gubiras in one year???

How is this a shock? One is just a smaller vinyl figure in a "vs" type box set series. It's nothing unusual for Bandai.

[RedZillaKing]

I know! Gubira is definitely one of the more common Ultra monsters to put in toy lines. He's practically a household name. From his first appearance in the original series to... um...

Bad attempt as humor is bad.

Gubira is a classic Ultraman kaiju. But now that he's making a formal return, its only natural we get a few new figures.

[RedZillaKing]

Earthtron, Black King, Zaragas... All monsters that came back after 30-40 some odd in such a way and never got a new figure in the standard line. Gubira gets not one, but two new figures. One for the standard line, one for the 4 inch line. In one year. Totally unusual.

And btw, I'm so sad that my humor wasn't up to your standards.

Thats because Bandai has no idea what the Hell they're doing anymore. And I'm officially convinced that Bandai just doesnt like Earthtron.

Gubira, unlike those you mentioned, has a major starring role here.

Point is, when it comes to the movies, Bandai will milk the Hell out of the ones who get made into figures.

[menschenjaeger]

Brought it up on Skullbrain already, but since 2013 will be the 50th anniversary of Matango, does anyone know if M1 or anyone else has plans for anything special?

[RedZillaKing]

Agreed and agreed.

Gubira, unlike those you mentioned, has a major starring role here.

It looks like Earthtron's role is just as prominent. I'm hoping that all the monsters get some decent scenes.

[king_ghidorah]

I need that Gomess...the rest of those figures I could care less about

Agreed³. Unfortunately.
