Thanks for the heads-up, Wataru. Grabbed one since it's actually at a good price for once! I'm thinking of possibly having a custom paint job done.

Ok, I've had this one in the back of my head since I started collecting, but now I'm going to actively pursue it. This pic is from Fairy Mothra's collection.

This is at the top of my want list with Marmit's Biollante figures.

^^

I have the exact same variant...I think it's easily the best looking variant of this particular figure and must be seen in person...

I had a chance to grab that one when I got mine, but I actually liked the browninsh version better. There is a pretty tempting blue/red version out there that I might pick up at some point, though.

So many great variants of that figure, but coveting Brittany's blue glitter one was one of the major things that prompted me to start collecting stylized figures. I need that one. :D So if anyone has a lead, please do let me know.

That's pretty close to the actual kaiju from the movie.

^ Yeah, people give the Vinyl Paradise figures a lot of crap, but the nice sculpts definitely outnumber the truly bad ones. Gabara does look exceptionally good, though. Well...at least as good as Gabara could look.

Well, it would look more accurate. Since I don't care for how the suit looked in the movie, the VP would probably still look "better" than the SHMA version to me. :P
