That unreleased Mecha King Ghidorah and Anguirus 55 are such a waste. Really would've put BC on the map. The line was such wasted potential

Man this line just suddenly vanished didn't it? There hasn't been a single release since 2015 which is amazing because prior the line had never missed a year

Really don't understand some of their directions towards the end of it

I mean they kept spamming Godzilla 1954 and King Caesar even though King Caesar didn't sell that well

Why not issue Destroyah, Gigan, or Angurius?

Seriously I'm desperate for a Angurius even if it is Final Wars Angurius
Yep. The Bandai rep who requested I put the poll on TK left the company a few months later. Don't know what to tell ya there. I'm surprised it's still being brought up though since it was conducted over 2 years ago.

King Caesar was approved in like 2011, 2 years before I started up with them. The contacts at the time didn't even know who approved him.

@ROMG4: Yeah, BX hasn't been on the ball in recent years. A damn shame if you ask me. Maybe, just maybe we'll see something at Toyfair tomorrow, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Don't expect anything interesting coming from Bandai America in the next decade lol. There's been rumblings something has been happening for the last week or so with people getting the head's up from management they were gonna get laid off because something's happened.


Meanwhile, Bandai lost the Power Rangers license. RIP Bandai America we knew you not well at all

People move on from jobs all the time-it's nothing new. It just sucks that that particular contact didn't stick around.

Oh man, that's right.

What if it was just Bandai handing off Power Rangers to Hasbro? :lol:

IDK, got my fingers crossed we'll see something revealed
Yeah, Godzilla wins... sometimes. I mean, he was killed by Dr. Serizawa's patented bubble-bath formula, heartburn, missiles, and poor box office returns, got his ass kicked by a drunken, circus-escaped gorilla, then he was beaten by two newborn worms, yeah some “king”.

Yup. No Bandai news outside of that Saban story that I can see.

It's only been one day no need to panic yet. The only things I've heard about are Star Wars and Marvel....and of course Mattel's beautiful Jurassic World line! :huge:

There's still 3 days to go...I have no idea how Toy Fair works but I'm sure there's still a possibility especially since Bandai is no longer doing Power Rangers...that may allow them to really dig into the Godzilla line.

Then again remember when it was stated to keep an eye out at Toy Fair it was never confirmed if it was for Godzilla or something else. All Chris said was that Bandai said to keep an eye out... for what remians to be seen.

Wasn't that figure never released due to lack oc interest or something?
