Much as I would love to see it, Ghidorah at that scale would be on par with the old 4 ft. Kaiyodo Godzilla kit. Plus wings to boot. It would be the coolest dang thing there ever was, but man you couldn't put that anywhere.

Image
The pre-orders for the standard version of the Destoroyah DefoReal should open at the retailers overnight. The RIC feature is the light-up horn and eyes.

I would expect the Burning Godzilla to follow quickly, as the '71 followed the Hedorah...

What's not to love about him? He's got a horn, some wings, a tail, some grabby claws, a... chest anus...

Wait a second.

If they did it once then they can do it again and it will sell like hot cakes :mrgreen:
If not then give me Rodan.

Ok, so the RIC site actually doesn't send you an email with tracking when they ship you stuff you order... my '64B RIC just hit the porch, totally unannounced... no sign of the '75 MechaGodzilla yet...

OH! You mean the US Ric site which I can't access due to being a filthy European. :lol: Then again, I don't get tracking updates when JP ships to my Tenso address. Looking good though, and the angle on the FSL 64 in this shot is superb. Gonna finally display mine soonish now that the regret is starting to wear down. Feels nice knowing I'll be back at work in a month.

Must have been a nice surprise lol.

I ordered the crawling Varan from the RIC site so I'm assuming it will just show up too one day. Hope they fix this

Anyone think $330 for the new xplus burning Godzilla Tokyo landing figure is too much? Or about right for sold out figure?

You mean the Yuji Sakai Hong Kong landing Burning Godzilla? The standard or the RIC? It's a horrible price for the standard, you can still pre-order the standard for $230 at AwesomeCollector... and $330 is about what you'll pay for the RIC anyway... so yeah, it's a good price for the RIC...

Yeah standard.
After UK shipping awesome collector works out 40 cheaper but already paid 330 Inc UK shipping. :(

Can't wait for Summer Wonderfest this weekend, I'm sure we'll see plenty of high res footage and pics of the Gigantic G19 and possibly Ric. November is gonna be such a good month for me, we got the G19 Gigantic shipping and Death Stranding in the same month.

It would be nice if they showed the RIC for the Gigantic G'19 at SummerWonder... seem to be a fair few collectors waiting to see it and pricing before they choose...

I'm already pretty content with the Normal version, I tend to prefer Godzilla in its normal state because it's more natural and more representative of its look in general but that's just me. I kinda hope the Ric would have a slightly or completely different pose if I'm ever considering double dipping. Simply recoloring with an open mouth just wont do for me if it's another $700.

I'd prefer the blue spines just because I think it'd stand out more. Besides I already have the standard Shin so I wouldn't mind having my other Gigantic be a RIC.
