Re-purchased a Marmit Vinyl Paradise Series '56 Rodan & Meganuron. Gave them up years ago and missed having them in the collection lately.

God, CAST makes some of the most unique stuff. I'm still looking to get the Magnetic Pipe and Space Titanium piece from GvMG. The Godzilla skin/cell from Biollante. The holy grail for me from cast is the Godzilla Tower. The fandom needs more Godzilla tower.

What can I say, I wanted a Marmit Shin that I DON'T have to buy a plane ticket to go to a convention in Japan and hope to god they still have some for purchasing when I get there. Aftermarket on him is ridiculous too. I'm a bit behind and I missed the reissue of King Ghidorah, MG2 (just barely). I really don't want to repeat that.

Let's just say....alot BUT not as much as the usual going rate. Has some creasing and water stains on the outer box cover. Figure is complete, diorama, all accessories and figure works perfectly so for a display piece 100% acceptable for me.

Finally found a Dunk Godzilla 1984 kit, will be having it professionally painted and assembled. Wondering what everyone prefers: wet or dry paint when it comes to Godzilla?

Like if the paint makes the figure look wet like he came out of water? I'm unfamiliar but really interested with this process.

Kind of. It's really just a layer of gloss coat that gives the figure a wet appearance.

In that case, personally I don't like those. I prefer my Godzilla's to be matte. Would that even be the word. I guess just d r y.

I think I'm going to go this route on it.

Grats on the Dunk Kit! F-ricken wicked sculpt.

I prefer mine dry, matte. Dull as my personality. Pretty sure if your into kits, you've seen Legrandzilla's works? Dudes a madlad in the best of ways when it comes to painting Godzilla kits. For me the real question when it comes to 84/85 is what color to paint him? Same Godzilla charcoal grey or go the Shinjuku Showdown Version of the recent X-Plus and give him that really nice blue moonlit tint. The vinyl wars Marmit did something similar before that but I feel the blue tint on him really makes the design stand out. Only Finaro and Moge always stand out to me as "blue tint" Godzilla's.

Wish you luck!
