This is the 2014 model. No? Look his feet.

Large size Jakks sighted in the UK. Dunno if they were supposed to be out this early or not, but either way, the merch train has started!

So Randy said a Neca Ghidorah is not impossible but there's just no plans at the moment. So at least they aren't entirely ruling him out in the future.

Isnt that how they approached Otachi? I remember them saying she was too big, but I mean, we got her eventually.

It is mostly Spider-Man themed, but I'd love to talk cosplay, lightsaber commissions, and countless other topics.

Really disappointing but I can live with it. I get that a KG would be too big for a store like Target but so many collector and comic books stores often sell really big statues and figures that would easily be the same scale as KG if not even bigger so I kinda wish they would make the KG figure for those stores even if that meant a smaller production run.

I doubt it's based on the packaging, if you make the wings something that has to be attached, which even SHMA will likely have to do, the box probably wouldn't be much bigger than say the 24" HTT Godzilla box.

Really surprised there's been absolutely no announcement of a 4K G14 yet. Yet I'd be more interested if they ever contemplate an extended/director's cut again. Very curious as to what was cut. You think the novelization might hint at anything that was removed. Still can't fathom why they cut the HALO drop speech. It was such a huge part of the marketing campaign and I think it would have added some much needed tension to the final minutes of the film.

No, the novel was based off an earlier draft of the script that never made it to shooting.

It kinda irks me the only way to actually get a decent Ghidorah is to get the MonsterArts. Who knows when or if Xplus will get to one.

When are the sticker and coloring books for this movie coming out? Chris should hold a giveaway with them, I'm sure this forum will participate in it.

Guarantee xplus makes one, but it could be forever and a day. We're finally getting Orga, 19 years later. Ha. Haha. Ha. Sigh.... But Ghidorah 2019 will likely be way too high in demand to not cater to collectors. I'd expect him in under a year after the movie releases. That's my gut feeling at least.

Huh? It was a genuine question! Don't get assblasted with me like you do with Terasawa, it's bad for your blood pressure.

Sure.....coloring books and stickers for this group. Dont act like you dont know what you implied. Assblasted? Hardly, I just asked you a simple question and if you were feeling better....you dont get butthurt about it.
