Godzilla Bandai USA/Creations Discussion

Found the Tokyo Vinyl figures, no fusions though.

HOLY CRAP THEY ARE TINY!!! NOT worth the $17.99 marked price!!!

My first impression too. Somehow they look larger in all the photos I've seen, even when next to something for scale.

I know! These things are like half the size of the regular figures!

The local Toys-R-Us here is loaded with these. (NO Gigans, though...WTH?!?) The 'stylized' ones are neat, as well, though not really my thing. (They had TONS of the vinyl ones when I went yesterday....)


I'm not one to complain, but I wonder why they seem to shy away from releasing Megalon in the states? Ah well... Without these Bandai Cration re-releases, I dont think that many U.S. kids would be exposed to Godzilla, so I see their release as a definite good thing.

We saw a tiny boy running around with a clear Godzilla, making growling noises and smashing him into the peg-hook figures....take THAT "Bukagans"!! I wanted to say to the kid: "LOOK, Billy! Its a ---------looking little ball that TRANSFORMS into a slightly LESS ---------looking ball - CRUSH them, Godzilla!!"
Poor, poor selection for kiddies these days....coming from an era of vinyls, giant robos, Micronauts, Megos, Star Wars, He-Man, Thundercats, etc., its very SAD for me to see the isles now stuffed (on their way to the clearance bins, ughhh) with the brain-dead kiddie anime toys-of-the-week. Seriously, can you even COUNT the foolish amount of "catch-em-all"-themed lines out these days with Japanese names?? ...Its almost like thats ALL that is available to kids....s-a-d. Bakublahblah, Redkiwhocares, Beylookretarditsaspinningtop, etc..etc... Most of these 'lines' look like the crap figurines that we'd get in gumball machines as a kid, and be bored with in ten minutes...

Are folks having trouble finding these? I can go buy-up all of the stock at the local stores and sell 'em here, if anyone needs 'em? At cost, of course, I'm not a scalper.

Is the translucent Mechagodzilla black-ish? I've seen a few pictures of it, and it looks darker, but I haven't a good one.

This is the best I've seen:



In the light, it looks translucent gray. In a general, quasi-lit setting it appears to be almost gunmetal in color. It turned out better than the Gigan, if you ask me. Which is weird, because I was more excited for that one.

[SJM925]

Baaaaah. Chogokin one it is for me, then.

G2K when?

[godzilla98rules]

Has anyone noticed that the Toys R Us website is no longer showing any of the new 6 inch guys?

Thats odd indeed. They were only up for a couple of days...

Yeah, I sure do hope they come back up on the website again, because it's the only way I can get these guys for such a low price....

I see the latest Gigan on the Tous'R'Us web site right now. I've never seen the latest Godzilla or MechaGodzilla listed on the site.

My clear Mecha-G has some paint slop on his arms and other parts. Like others have mentioned, the paint is a bit sloppy on these clears...same goes for my Godzilla from the same set.

Not a big deal for me, though.

Picked up the fusion gigan, mecha godzilla, and godzilla last night. Picked up a regular mechagodzilla too. They are sweet figures. The fusion mechagodzilla is very dark grey.

Disappointed about no godzilla 2000. That was the one I was most excited for.

[tycerium]

I went to Toys'R'Us yesterday and there was no sign of the Fusion figures. I have a coupon for their online shop only that's about to expire, so I hope they're listed online again soon.

[k300]

If anyone was wondering the Alafaya location in Florida had about 7 left out on the shelf. They probably got a lot in though.

[tycerium]

The Fusion figures are listed at Toys'R'Us again but as out of stock for shipping.

I've been to two stores in Massachusetts and neither has the Fusion toys.

[Tim85]

Jesus, will Toys R' Us make up their minds? Are you selling them online or not?

[ZillaMaster91]

I just got my Tokyo Vinyl Godzilla earlier this morning while down at the post office. It's a neat figure. Not much to it, but still neat. I have MechaGodzilla still coming in the mail along with various Ultra-Act figures and etc., so I'm awaiting for it eagerly.

So far, Tokyo Vinyl turned off, definitely hunting out Fusion Gigan, normal MG74 and possibly Fusion Burning G.

A Fusion Gigan '04 figure would be welcome.

[tycerium]

The Fusion figures are not listed on Toys'R'Us right now. This is most annoying.
