Anyway, I might be going on a hunt for some of these this week. Fusion Gigan, either Mechagodzilla, and either Mothra are on my want list.

The only ones that are out are 1968 Godzilla, Gigan and Mechahgodzilla.

I finally saw these at a local Toyrs R Us. Not getting the appeal. Also saw the Tokyo Vinyl figures. Wow, look at all the wasted box space. These things should NOT be $20.

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.

I was disappointed when I saw them in person, the Tokyo Vinyls. They look cool, but they looked too squished for me.

The Gigan is all right. The nice, bright, clear green vinyl is eye catching enough. The Mechagodzilla is as dull as dirty dishwater.

I saw the Tokyo Turds at Toys R Us a few weeks ago. The Godzilla is one hideous hunk of vinyl.

I bought one, mainly because I thought I might regret it if I passed up the opportunity. It's alright if you have a light on it, but you're right about that grey-brown-bleh color. Why not a lighter grey with the sparkles or something? :?

I dig the MechaG. They took the time to put a rustic overlay on him, I think he looks pretty slick.

I've passed up on Gigan two times, though. Which is odd, because I was anticipating that one.

The Tokyo Vinyls, though... I did a lot of research and posting about those months ago on Skreeonk.com... and I still have no interest in the Godzilla. I'll pick up the MG when its at a more reasonable price.

There are some folks on ebay asking for up to $35 for those BC FS Vinyls, & they're only $12.99 at TRU! :eh:

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 :g2k:

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.

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

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.

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

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

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?
