Worst Kaiju Toy Ever?

[RedZillaKing]

Totally disagree on the first count. True, it's a bad likeness, but it has a lot of redeeming charm IMO. I have the Iwakura mini Bullmark and like it. :]

Hey to each their own. Kamoebas is one of my favorite kaiju and I always found the bumpy toad they were trying to pass off as him aggravating. Probably because figures of him are so rare.

The BC GMK Ghidorah is horrendous. The sculpt is terrible, the pink gums are like lipstick, and I even have a hard time even seeing the resemblance with the actual GMK Ghidorah other than the teeth. The actual Bandai GMK Ghidorah is fantastic: its true to the character, has great sculpting for the scales and the heads, and it still gives Ghidorah a lit more bulk compared to 6 inches (if you use it with 6 inches to get a Showa feel minus the height). Other than that, I would probably say that the BC MG2 is not too great either.

^that's interesting. A lot of people seem to think the MG2 and Ghidorah from BC are some of their decent figures. I personally like my Ghidorah from them all right.

this thread contains no pics of said worst toys ever.


i am disappoint.

I gave links to a couple of bad looking ones.

However, I have very little to no experience with really bad kaiju toys, so I can't contribute much more.

... Okay, so what movie did the guys at Bullmark watch? Because that is in no way Kamoebas.

^ I think it's safe to say that that figure is OVER-stylized.

[RedZillaKing]

Yep. It doesn't even have teeth and Kamoebas had some rather prominent fangs.

I had the Shogun Warriors Godzilla when I was a kid, & I remember thinking that it didn't look much like any Goji I had seen in the movies. But it was the only Godzilla toy out there - in the US.

Bandai (Japan) GMK Mothra.

The figure wont even sit on it's own legs without lopping forward on it's head. Also the figure just doesnt look right ...maybe it's the shitty Mothra designbut the figure does NOTHING for me.

[Manda2012]

The BC Final Wars Hedorah was a non-poseable turd. I remember seeing it on the shelf at K-B Toys & laughing at how bad it was!

Bandai's 6-inch Heisei Ghidorah is a decent figure as well. It needs improvement, but I certainly don't think it deserves to be called one of the worst kaiju toys EVER -- especially when I look at images of figures like this

Sorry to go off topic but Wow! a Godzilla Meteorb, thats pretty neat IMHO.

The article also has the original Japanese toyline these were based on.

I don't think it's over-anythinged...it's just not Kamoebas. It's not even sort-of Kamoebas. It's more like a lump of clay that they pounded with a meat-tenderizer and painted some eyeballs onto.

Also, I grant that it has historical value, but the Shogun Warriors Godzilla is so ugly, I can barely stand to look at it. I've said before that it looks more like a green Tor Johnson than Godzilla. Hell, it looks more like Tor Johnson than it does a dinosaur.

[RedZillaKing]

CD, that entire post just made my day. LMAO

Glad to be of service.

I think the BC Hedorah has a simple charm to it.

That Kamoebas would make a really cool frog/toad kaiju.

For me though the worst is the BC Final Wars Anguirus. The colors on it are so bad.

That Kamoebas would make a really cool frog/toad kaiju.

Looks more like Magura from Ultraman

Bandai Creation Hedora.

'Nuff said.

This. Its a hunk of plastic with eyes.

[DrBreakfastMachine]

I remember when that wave of Bandai Creations showed up in local stores here, and I thought "Oh cool, they're selling Godzilla toys here again! Let's see what we've got...two Godzillas, Destoroyah, and....a melted pile of black plastic with some major derp face."
