Rebuild of S.H. MonsterArts 1.1 [ABRIDGED]

[goji89]

Yes. And you should feel ashamed. Unless your like on some oral hygiene kick and like Goji with toothpaste mouth then no.

[Missingno.]

Had to inquire about the order status (granted I placed it during December ), but my anime girl Biollante is finally on its way. Looking forward to receiving it!

[Gahdzilluh]

Wonder if we will see a kong pic. And also i think the new G is worth it for the new hands and dorsal plate paint. Just do a head swap because those teeth are terrible

[canofhumdingers]

If Kong is on display I’ll snap a pic tomorrow. Going to the pop up store in the morning.

Godzilla's mouth looks very.. weird. Talk about odd design choices.

Have we gotten any annoucements when it comes to Singular Point figures?

Yall with the 2019 are lucky, had mine for a few months before he fell off a shelf and exploded.

Now he's 300 dollars and my only chance to scoop the mold is with this minty mouth zilla.

If the head of your original G19 is still intact, you could just pop it on the G21 body if worse comes to worst.

Aside from the mouth paint, I'm really liking the G21. The spines look nice IMO.

Ya'know I actually kept it for my custom G14 headswap, but that's a good idea. I'll likely do that if they don't fix the jaws.

Well, they didn’t have Kong on display unfortunately. They did have a jaeger from the Netflix cartoon on display but I forgot to take a pic of it. Fwiw, I thought the toothpaste mouth didn’t look nearly as bad in person as it does in pics (even my pics below don’t do a good job showing how it looks in person). It is VERY reflective metallic paint and looks incredibly bright and “glow-y”. I personally would’ve maybe been a bit more restrained with its application around the outer edges but even as is it looks cool enough that I’m keeping my preorder.

The giant 6 foot tall Godzilla in the front window was pretty spectacular. Inside they had some props and one costume on display. I only managed to get one decent photo of a skull crawler egg, which was pretty neat.

I am soooo jelous and envious of you that I find it offensive and my feeling are hurt.

What an opportunity.

The mouth does look much better in your photos. Thank you!

[canofhumdingers]

It’s worth noting they had really good lighting set up on that “toothpaste” Goji. Including a tiny little spotlight pointed right at his face which really made the mouth look like it was glowing. I do wonder how good it will look in less ideal lighting on normal display. But in proper light, it looked pretty cool.

Honestly the store was really tiny. And it was mostly a tiny retail shop selling tamashii products. It was fun to see but probably not worth a trip into the city just for that alone. We’d been planning/promising to take the kids to NYC ever since we moved within day-trip driving distance this summer but the COVID restrictions have only recently loosened up enough to even consider actually doing so.

The only Godzilla merch they had for sale was the translucent blue convention exclusive Goji ‘19.

[Shenanigans]

It probably wouldn't look quite so bad if it included a freaking beam. Or if they went all-out on the "atomic blast" color scheme like NECA did on their figures, though that's a personal preference on my part.

[Poe Ghostal]

I do wish Bandai would sculpt a new breath weapon. The one used for Spitfire was a bit thin and raggedy, which matched the weaker version seen in the 2014 film, but in KOTM and GvK it’s more of a straight beam.

Oh boy, is she a big bitch that takes up a lot of room. But I love her so much!

[goji89]

No matter how many fucking times I see people post Biollante pics even though I've had her for so long it makes me so unhappy.

[Anguirus]

I'm guessing we're not going to see Gamera villain kaiju anytime. Sigh. I wish they'd at least release one.

[Kinggoji1962]

Oh boy, is she a big female dog that takes up a lot of room. But I love her so much!

I'm looking forward to mine delivering. However, FedEx is doing some funny business. It's been stuck in the middle of the country for 5 days.

[Shenanigans]

Well, if Kong wasn't on display at that pop-up shop before, he is now. Tamashii Nations posted this, unfortunately not great quality:

[Anguirus]

Niceeee.
Also, I know it won't happen, but please Bandai for the love of God make Pacific Rim kaiju in this line!
