My Marmit Monster Heaven Godzilla 2003 finally arrived!

It's my first Marmit, and I've already fell in love with it! Personally when it comes to Marmits, the figures for the Showa and Millennium kaiju look the best. Now I am awaiting for my other Marmit purchase - the Vinyl Paradise Godzilla 1954 - to come in. Hopefully by Friday.

I mean an easily affordable soft vinyl figure, not a really expensive Super-articulate one.

Does anyone agree that the poster art for the Heisei films is much more impressive than the films themselves?

One of my favorite all time Godzilla movie posters painted by Ohrai-san. How much did you spend on this reproduction poster?

$20 for a 24x36 poster. Not a bad deal at all :-)

Went into a shop in LA that had a Gigabrain '62 Godzilla listed on their eBay page, hoping I could pick it up. Turns out they sold it back in January but failed to take down the listing...? Pretty annoying blunder, but that's life. I'll keep looking for one.

I picked up a few Ultra kaiju instead.

No, not at all! Great catch!

Unfortunately my version of this poster has fold lines in it - it came as an insert with the Volume Two "Making Of" book.

Still a gorgeous poster, though!

Ah, I forgot about that store. The prices aren't too appealing, though....

Well the thing that matters most is that you HAVE it regardless. I'm gonna seek out some more awesome posters, unfortunately, my kaiju room is starting to get filled with poster. I don't have much room left lol

My Powered Gomora came in today.......
He is okay except for a little paint scuff on his horn, missing one of his elbow spikes and one of his spikes on his belly his missing. Doesn't bother me a bit.

Oh I completely agree, but that is the only store I know about in the state of IL. I tried to hold off buying stuff from the store last summer before G-Fest, and when I arrived to G-Fest the vendors had stuff from Monster Island toys that was like maybe 10 dollars cheaper than that of the store. But, I was happy to get my Cloverfield figure from there, i didn't see any at G-Fest other than the Monster Island Toys vendor that had one.

Just ordered a Fake Godzilla from Tempting Toys and Collectibles. $70, but I had some extra money, so I decided to get this.

Well today I won an auction on a Bandai 9 inch Gigan Chainsaw version. About $75 altogether. Not too awful when it usually goes for $100. Funny thing is that the bid started literally at $9.99, what an amazing jump.

King Pandon is HERE ----- EARLY!!!!
It's a great looking figure. He goes great alongside Antlar.

I was going to celebrate by watching the movie again.... but it's no longer up on YouTube. :(
