I ordered an 8" scale King Caesar with tag, an '89 Rodan with tag, and an 8" Burning Godzilla with Tag. The Caesar and the loose tag from Rodan I'm keeping, and I'll probably be listing the Burning G and untagged Rodan on Skreeonk.


HOLY CRAP REALLY?!!??

How much did that Caesar run you? Im thinking about one for my collection..

Well, only $12 plus shipping, probably comes out to about $20 for that one of the bunch, but that's a lot lower than they usually go for I think.

Hmm.... I've always wanted an 8" Burning Godzilla. Have to keep my eyeballs on skreeonk.

I snagged one. Im semi-impressed with it. I got it for $50 with tag from Chibi Goji. Hips are a bit thick for me.

I bought an 8" Burning Godzilla without its tag several years ago during a layover in Singapore.
It's certainly one of my favorite Bandais.

A simple "yes" would've sufficed.


Well let me ask you this.

What reason do I have NOT to review it as I have done with the 150 other figures?

It came out in November, and considering you got it now, you may think there's no point?

I dunno, just me.

-_- There's a million SHM Godzilla reviews out there. Didn't know if you'd bother. Simple question... Should've been a simple answer.

Let me explain this to you. I asked you a question. The question was concerning something that may or may not happen (as it had not happened yet). Therefore, as it had not happened yet, it was unknown. Perhaps you didn't feel like reviewing it. Perhaps you were visiting your Aunt Edna. Maybe you were very busy. There are a thousand reasons why someone would choose not to do something. It's not like I asked you about an involuntary action (are you planning on taking your next breath? Are you planning on allowing your heart to pump blood through your veins? Etc..).

So yeah... I suppose I could've assumed that you'd do a video review. By why make an assumption about a voluntary action when you could just ask?

Because I'm a reviewer. I review stuff. It's what I do.

Sorry for expecting people to be able to put 2 and 2 together.

You're mixing "putting two and two together" with "making assumptions". Not the same thing.

If people ask you if you're doing reviews about a specific figure it's because they're curious. If you have a problem with that it's just that. Your problem. Do you get it now?

Putting 2 and 2 together.

Guy makes toy reviews. For about 5 years.

Guy gets a new toy. He likes it.

Put those 2 together, use a bit of logical reasoning, and bam; awnsered your own question.

Now be quiet. =P

First off, you assume I actually care about your reviews enough to know that you've been doing them that long. Or that you've done over 150. There's nothing "logical" about that. Those were assumptions on your part. And they were incorrect as it turns out- I've seen a handful and even those I skimmed through.

Anyhow, I knew you did reviews. I knew you liked it. However, assuming that you're definitely going to do a review is just that. So I asked you a simple little question that required a simple little answer. I won't make that mistake again as you don't actually seem able to answer simple questions. Btw, the word you were looking for was "yes". Protip: don't tell people to stop. It just encourages them to do otherwise.

That is a magnificent looking figure - but would it better under the 'toy' or 'model' category?

Mostly luck. I keep in touch with a certain circle of collectors, and sometimes it pays off. At this point in my life, I am so far from "rich", I'd need the Hubble telescope just to see it. Of course, if I didn't buy kaiju toys...nah. That's crazy talk. :lol:

Pre-built model is most accurate, I suppose.

I'm fairly certain we lump the two together, Rody.

Fantastic figure! I'm pretty sure there's a Gorosaurus in the same series... Though for some reason he's a bit small. I've also seen a magnificent Earhtron by Marmit.

The Goro runs slightly smaller than earlier models, but he's still about 15" measuring from nose to tail.
