Then idk what you've been doing. There's been a lot of religious Catholics here. They discuss religious troubles in threads and have it in their bios

I found them at the Dayton Mall location. I was there at around 3 am on Tuesday and I spotted them with the Jurassic World Dino Rivals toys.

I'm not in Dayton but I am pretty close! I didn't know there were other Godzilla fans around here. I have never met another one in person before.

As for these figures, they look awesome! It's amazing how much better he looks just with the vastly improved spines! If Bandai Creation throws their hat into the ring, I just hope that they don't save the good vinyls for after the movie has been out and the hype had already died down (like they foolishly did for the 2014 film).
I live in Xenia, Ohio but I don't like our Walmart because I can never find what I'm looking for there so I go to the Dayton and Sugarcreek stores instead. I usually go to Walmart after midnight when no one is there. I just ride the electric wheelchairs because I spend about 2 hours at Walmart every other week or so even though I'm only 21.
Man what’s with all us Ohio boys doing here? Marion resident. I haven’t checked my Walmart yet to see if there’s any which I might do tomorrow. If you guys are ever in Ontario, you should check out a place called “Toy Hunters”. That’s where I buy all my Neca stuff but they got a ton of Godzilla x-plus, monsterarts, figurearts, old 80s toys, etc. Just too much to list out.

Kind of a bummer there's no 6" Mothra. At least not any confirmation.
Definitely buying that 6" Rodan, and probably Ghidorah, if NECA's one doesn't convince me.
Here's my Instagram, I post photos of my figures, customs and sometimes other stuff:

These are some super ugly figures. Like I don't get it, why are they so bad and cheap looking? Hell, the Trendmaster stuff from the mid-90s looks better. Maybe even the Imperial toys from the 80s look better.

Modern kids' toys these days all look like that. Cost-effective measures or some other reason behind it.

Look fine to me. For $12 bucks getting two figures and a back display, don't really expect it to look as detailed as even the Trendmasters.

The current Jurassic World figures look pretty good, frankly not much different from the ones I had as a kid.

But I didn't realize that these were super cheap, so whatever.

Pretty sure that these are aimed at younger kids as well, not saying that as an excuse, just something I'm sure they thought when creating them. Personally, I'm fine with what they are. We'll get out more detailed toys in time for the film

This sounds insane, but I'm wondering if there's a 6" Jakks Godzilla to go with their 6" Rodan and King Ghidorah? The leaked photos I've seen showed the 43" reissue, a new 20 inch long (i.e. 10" tall) figure in a Bandai-USA-style tray, three window-boxed two-packs of 3.5" figures (three Godzilla variants and one each of the other titans), and the window-boxed 6" versions of Rodan and Ghidorah. But there's no photo of a 6" Godzilla or Mothra from Jakks. Coincidentally, those are the only two figures announced (so far) by NECA. Coincidence?

Well that's incredibly disappointing. Oh well, NECA it is.

Yeah that sucks. Those giant figures are the only things I wanted from the line. I mean if they're not gonna bother putting news spines on the gigantic Godzilla then its not a stretch they'd skip completely on Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan.

From Gomaru Island on Facebook this morning, formatting mine:
Jakks Pacific Unveils US Retail Prices for 'GODZILLA: King of the Monsters' Merchandise!

Hitting just a day before the big 2019 Toy Fair event tomorrow, in a press release launched early this morning, Jakks Pacific announced that they will be officially revealing the global launch of their merchandise for the upcoming MonsterVerse sequel at the Toy Fair.
Expected, however, included in said press release was the unveiling of official US retail prices for said merchandise!

“Godzilla is an iconic character, and we are excited to be partnering with Toho and Legendary on an extensive line of action figures, role-play and play sets, bringing the King of the Monsters from the movie screen to your home,” said Virginia Reneau, VP Global Licensing, JAKKS Pacific.
Select Godzilla: King of the Monsters toys include:

(1 **) 3.5-inch Monster Battlepacks: Kids can recreate the film’s epic battles and action with a unique Godzilla figure, an articulated legendary monster figure and a backdrop accessory. Each two-figure Battlepack is recommended for ages 3 and older at a suggested retail price of $9.99.

(2 **) 6-inch Monster Figure: Kids can collect their favorite legendary monsters—King Ghidorah and Rodan—in 6-inch scale. Each articulated figures comes with a vehicle accessory and a breakable building. King Ghidorah and Rodan are sold separately for $14.99 and are recommended for ages 3 and older.

(3 ***) 12-inch Godzilla Figure: This amazing Godzilla stands at 12 inches tall and over 20 inches long. He is fully poseable at the neck, shoulders, legs and tail. This figure is recommended for ages 3 and older at a recommended retail price of $19.99.

(4 ****) Godzilla Electronic Mask: Kids can imagine they are the King of the Monsters with the Godzilla Electronic Mask. Simply open Godzilla’s mouth slightly to activate Godzilla’s growl, then open a little wider to activate Godzilla’s lights and unleash his thunderous roar. The Godzilla Electronic Mask will be available for fans ages 3 and older for a suggested retail price of $24.99.

(5 *****) 24-inch Godzilla Figure: This Godzilla figure is the ultimate gift for Godzilla fans. Standing at 24 inches tall and over 36 inches long, this figure is fully poseable, with articulation in the jaw, neck, shoulders, hands, legs, feet and tail. Its massive scale and incredible detail will bring Godzilla to life for fans ages 3 and older, and will be available at a recommended retail price of $59.99.

That really is odd/disappointing that they are not making a 6 inch Godzilla and Mothra. You would think that would have been a "given". Hopefully, if the Rodan and King Ghidorah sell well, they will add Godzilla and Mothra later.

Got an interview with them coming up so for sure I'll be asking about this.

Wait, so they're doing 6 inch figures of Rodan and Ghidorah but NOT the TITLE CHARACTER?

No wonder Jakks hasn't been doing anything beyond Mario characters in their World of NINTENDO line, they're run by a bunch of monkeys.

I'm sure Rodan/Ghidorah will be Wave 1, G and Mothra Wave 2, and if it does well enough, I can see a Wave 3 having the other kaiju

Just 1 wave I'm told. What's coming out is all there is.

Aw that's disappointing, hopefully they have future plans eventually
