Godzilla Bandai USA/Creations discussion

[GCrusher]

I'm ready for a new BC mold and tired re releases and variations.

[ChunkyGodzilla]

I picked up the Fusion Godzilla the other day. They had the Tokyo Vinyls & I passed on the Godzilla. Didn't care for the look. But my wife thought he was too cute, so I might pick him up later just for her

[ZillaMaster91]

I stopped caring much for Bandai Creations' six inch figure line long ago... pretty much after the first wave of figures back in 2002. Even the Fusion figures don't do it for me either...

Personally I enjoy the Tokyo Vinyl figures. I found them, perhaps, the more unique items to be introduced by Bandai USA. My only nitpick is the fact that MechaGodzilla is smaller than Godzilla.

[GreenAiden555]

Does anyone know if the paint app is better on this wave's G2K figure yet or no?

[terrypierson]

either Mothra are on my want list.

Not out yet, I believe.

I'll make them appear with my burning desire.

Nah, I'll be looking for Fusion Gigan and Mechagodzilla then. My slight interest in the Tokyo Vinyls has cooled off I think, so I'll probably pass there.

Holy Crap, Jomei actually made the Mothra's appear with burning desire apparently.

That is beyond impressive.


Anyway, I like the Tokyo Vinyls-and apparently I'm alone in liking the Godzilla more than the MechaG. I'm also looking forward to the 54 G.

I have all three of this wave's standard 6". Only have the Fusion MechaG because it was all I could find at first. I've since located the Gigan and Godzilla locally and I might pick up the Fusion Gigan - I like the bright green.

The Fusion Godzilla 68 is the only one I really have no love for.

[Jomei]

Rainbow Mothra and Gigan seem to be the best Fusion figures. I still need dat Gigan! Might consider Fusion MechaG if I see it someplace.

My Oh Pinions about this wave.

Ive seen Fusion Mecha-G and Godzilla 68 at Toys 'R Us and they're pretty meh. I may eventually pick up 2 and repaint one with movie accurate colors. I have yet to see Fusion Gigan and Rainbow Mothra in person tho.

Man i was stupid not to pick up the standard version of MG when he came out

[Petezilla]

Damn... what have they done to that neat Burning Goji prototype from the 2012 Toy Fair...?!

[Godzilla 2000]

I still say the clear Burning Godzilla (the grey one with glitter and the new tail) looks damn cool.

[Superrex]

Getting the Fusion Rainbow Mothra the next time I see it. It looks pretty damn cool!
Fusion Burning Godzilla looks...ugh. I WAS going to get the Fusion figure,but that was when it was at the Toyfair. This new Fusion paint job looks ugly IMO. Might get a Fusion G2K though.

BTW,I heard that the kaiju that will be released with G54 in the Tokyo Vinyl line was G2K. Can anyone confirm this?

[starsteam]

Unless it's just a place holder for the image, looks like we're just getting a reissue of the first wave's Godzilla.

[Tim85]

^Doesn't the G54 Tokyo Vinyl look a little like Wreck-it Ralph?

[Creature22]

Woah, dude! Check out those mits!

Let me know when you see them at TRU up there. I usually hit the one in Davenport and always seem to have good luck there.

[ChunkyGodzilla]

2nd wave of Fusion's looks pretty cool. I'll swing by TRU tomorrow.

[wataru]

..no idea what Bandai US was thinking with those Tokyo Vinyls. They look like forced-Americanized stylized ass. Yes, there's a mark for stylized vinyl but the stuff is EXPENSIVE and not crap looking.

Wait, what's the difference between them and the SD ones that came out a few months ago along with MechaGodzilla? They look the same to me.

[Cimmerian Dragon]

^ The '54 Godzilla hasn't been released yet.

The other one did already come out with MechaGodzilla months ago.

I agree. These are the first licensed American Godzilla products that I have NO interest whatsoever in supporting (well and the plushies just because I can't find those anywhere...and I am not buying the repaints if you want to count those to). I would much rather see Bandai Creation concentrate on giving us some brand new molds/monsters of their original line. But since everything I always think is crap is inevitably embraced by the masses (while things I believe that should be praised are typically overlooked and underappreciated), this line will probably become their new standard line and the more logical figures will be phased out when they run out of ideas/excuses for repackaging the same damn things over and over again.

On a related note, I saw a few people saying that K-Mart was (supposedly) stocking BC Godzilla figures again but I went to my dad's local K-Mart store over the weekend and it was still just as "Godzillaless" as it has been for 3 years now.

[Primevalgodzilla V2]

?? The Tokyo Vinyls are brand new molds, not 'repackaging for the same damn things over and over again'.

Or would you be referring to the Fusion line?
