Re: Playmates: Godzilla/Kong
I also have the PM 2004 Godzilla, and despite being made of that cheap hard plastic, I honestly like the figure and personally, I think it looks way better than the 12" BC 2004.MM Raids Again wrote:Haven't seen this done yet, but for those wondering, the Playmates 12" Godzilla 2004 IS a new sculpt. Or, at least, has new sculpt parts. The head, spines, and tail are all new sculpts. The face itself is a lot more accurate to 2004's movie design while the 12" Bandai is more akin to the poster art of the film.

Re: Playmates: Godzilla/Kong
I can only seem to find the 12" Kong whenever I go to stores. No 6" figures or 12" Godzilla yet. I'll probably grab the big Godzilla since it looks pretty nice for what it is. Not sure about Kong.

Doesn't look that different to me. So, the brown is now more pronounced. Big whoop...

Re: Playmates: Godzilla/Kong
Lol, that may be true, but I feel like it's good to praise people for a job well done. Sure it's not complex but it's still an improvement and it's nicely done.MandaSaurus wrote:Doesn't look that different to me. So, the brown is now more pronounced. Big whoop...

I noticed something about the Playmates K:SI figs that have been released. Spoilers for those figure leaks from a few weeks ago. Basically, GVK spoilers.

Re: Playmates: Godzilla/Kong
I wouldn't read in to that. It's very common for toys to have one hand in a grip and the other a fist. The 18" Lanard Kong for example.

So, from what I understand, the showcase at Toyfair was a private one?

That is correct. Nothing has been revealed to the general public as of yet.

Hmmmm I guess that makes sense. Doesn't really make sense to see anything now. Just the anxious fan in me to see something, but we're still over 8 months away for this film.

Found Playmates' ugly-ass Shin ripoff. Definitely a copy of someone else's work...

Re: Playmates: Godzilla/Kong
Yeah, I thought about buying a Kong, and then decided that I'd just rather throw in another $100-$120 for the X Plus Kong.

Picked up the big Kong. Was gone at two of the three Wal-Marts I visited...
