Accept mine! :D

And it's possible that its a bootleg if it doesn't have the "blood stain lips." I believe this toy is one of the most bootlegged toys out there.

^Yeah, can we not start with that?

I have the 12" one. I had the 6" figure, too, but I'm not sure where it is now.

I know what I said.

"Accept" as in, "accept that mine is different and better".

And if that is a feature of the bootleg version, that may make the bootleg more desirable.

Here's mine! Plus some other stuff. I think all of these figures are on my basement shelf now, though.

Its a Trendmasters. I had it for some time. I got my from a J.C. Penny's magazine back in the 90s. It came with a city-scape to destroy too.

I had a 12" Imperial when I was young. Still do, somewhere. Unfortunately for the collectible value, I decided to give it serious overhaul when I was a kid. I spray-painted it black, gave him proper irises, and did some bony highlights on the claws and fins.

I have the big one! I also have several of the 6 inch ones, including one with slightly bent fins, a low quality one that came on a card. My most unique, however, is one that I got at a flea market for a buck. His fingers, toes, and tip of his mouth were rudely chopped off, but that's what I really love about him.

Not bad. If you can get past the awful paint-aps to the head.

By the way, anyone have any info on that little Imperial lookalike knock off from the 80s with the little clamping arms? Here's a photo of one:

I really want one but can't find one online anywhere. I think there's a brown one too but the green one is my goal.

That's awesome! I actually like the detail of it even though it's a knock off. I have to find one of these! :D

Finally got myself a 12" imperial godzilla!!

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem ... 0737094827

I think I might "restore" it once it gets here. Touch up the paintjob, paint the fins again...

I think I'll get rid of the lipstick too...

It's here!!!

Holy skreeonk it's so big!! (THAT will be taken out of context...)

Its listed as 12"... But it towers over both my 12" banpresto Godzilla 2000 and my BC finaro Godzilla.
