Even though they really aren't clear I like that Gigan for some reason.

I was thinking of selling my Gigan as well as others to make room but if they're reissuing him I don't think I'll make much of a profit lol. Those clear figures do look unique. They remind me somewhat of them in the video games, maybe because the brighter colors.

Pretty creative idea of BC. I might just pick up some of the clear figures after all.

They don't look half bad. Can anyone tell if the molds or paint are improved at all from previous releases?

The molds look slightly different. Gigan's claws seem longer and Godzilla's arms seem posed differently (and I don't mean because they're turned up). I might get that Gigan. He's kinda nifty. Also, hopefully I'll be able to find MG'74 easier now. I definitely wasn't crazy about buying it online for some ridiculous price.

It's the same mold. Normal Gigan's image is exactly the same as the image for the original 2002 release.

Am I the only one who noticed G68 looks to have head rotation? I own the first issue and he doesn't even have a cut there.

*Rereads*

Okay, see, I thought he was asking if the clear figures had different molds from the normal figures.

Well that's really dull .... I'll only be getting the MG74. And that's only if I find it locally.

They may have scaled him down slightly and added neck movement during that process. I remember the first release of that figure being a tad too tall to fit in scale with the other toys. I hope they may have corrected that problem with this reissue. Possibly.

These are probably prototypes, so dont expect head rotation.

I'll be purchasing each of the clear figures. I'm all for that Gigan, he looks really slick.

Not expecting it, just surprised since the released figure didn't even have a cut there, much less rotation.

Probably using the wrong terminology.

This appears to just simply be the next wave/assortment, so I would certainly hope they'd be at TRU in abundance.

The Spacegodzilla wave currently shipping seems to sell well enough at the TRUs around here.

Those look pretty decent. I'm definatly going to get that MG'74 (I haven't been able to get it yet) and the clear Gigan (It looks so cool for some reason).
