I'd go ahead and snag him just to snag him, he’s a pretty cool figure to have and looks great in a collection- really stands out from the reptilian, robot, and insect designs that litter mine.

I really hope they would at least reissue some older characters

Any of the Gigans would be awesome!

Has anyone seen the 12 inch figure that they showed on Twitter? It was a larger version of their 60's Godzilla. It had a neck swivel and such. I've never seen it, but I've seen them use it in promotional photos. Just wondering if it's a real release.

Gotta say, this is the first I'm hearing of it, care to provide a pic?

I'm spacing on where I saw that this was 12 inches like their FW figures, but here's the pic:

Notice the neck cut, that the 6 inch figure doesn't have.

Thanks for supplying the photo, first time I've ever seen this. Perhaps it's just a Photoshop job done for marketing purposes?

That's just a stock photo of the 6" 1968 prototype which featured a neck swivel.

Extremely strange that they're marketing it as a 12" figure, unless they're going the obnoxious NECA route of calling it a "12 inch head-to-tail" figure.

Ah thanks for solving that mystery. Yeah I was led to believe it was a 12 inch version, but it was probably just poorly worded. Darn. Thought there was something new out there.

Heads up, homies. On the back of the Godzilla Legends 1954 box at SDCC, they're teasing a Godzilla 1974 figure and a Godzilla 2020 figure.

How unfair :lol:
I'd love if Bandai America put out a 1974 over here.

God... That SDCC exclusive is so disappointing... But, a '74 figure would be fantastic!

it does look more like the b version of the suit. Need more pictures. Looks like silver paint highlites. Nice touch to make it look more gray. Any word on accessories, breath/beam effects?

Turns out it was actually the top of the box. Sorry, I know it's not the best picture.
