Not gonna lie, that's pretty cool. But... why not just slap a new head on it and boom, Manda 1963! Their 1968 Manda is pretty great as-is. I could use a figure of the original Manda. The original Manda's better anyways.

" He said it would probably be released in about five or six years"
Meanwhile, that glorious BioGoji sculpt is probably shackled up in somebody's basement, never to see the light of day.

Isn't there always talk of DAM Varan coming back? Like, serious talk from Temptingtoyz and/or the guy who makes these things.
I used to be a lot more optimistic and outgoing, believe it or not. I used to actually be passionate about this stuff.

Looks good to me! I'm in, if they can refrain from garish paint jobs...

That Varan would be great especially since their first was a bit awkward. It would be awesome if they did a Frankenstein to go with the gargantuas.

I still want that closed mouth version, but I've yet to find it a price I can afford.

Between the two, which one do you think I should get? Gorosaurus Closed Mouth Version (DAM) or the clear spikes Godzilla 1965?

Gorosaurus since there aren't to many figures of him out there.

That's a tough one. Like Godzillian said, there aren't many Gorosaurus figures out there and I really want the closed mouth version, myself. On the other hand, I have the red variant of their Godzilla 1965 figure and I absolutely love it--I have no qualms recommending it.

I guess it depends on which one tickles your fancy more.

No one answered my Ebirah question so I bought a Gaira.

It is absolutely amazing to have 6" figures of the Gargantuas, or even any figures of them at all. Not a lot of options out there. And these ones fit perfectly with Bandai's 6" lineup. If you didn't know any better you'd assume they were Bandai's. They're just fantastic.

Very pleased with these figures, and I'm hoping Y-MSF keeps it up with figures like this, specifically ones Bandai never did at this scale.

You've convinced me, Mr. X. I've ordered the same Gaira you did( Type B ). If I like it well enough, I'll get Sanda too. Dunno what they were thinking, with that Type A Gaira - the arm positions look WEIRD... :eh:

Hooray! You shouldn't regret it, it's a great piece for any collection.

Type A Gaira is meant to be posed with Sanda - re-enacting their positions on one of the posters.
