Gamera is coming back, and not in some MV film I won't watch. Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!

Seriously this is awesome news. The big turtle is back!

Yeah I just saw someone on Twitter point that out with this pic.

At first I was kind of like, you know, its a fairly generic Gamera silhouette, so it was hard to draw a lot of comparison, but that distinct snout shape is strikingly similar (albeit slightly elongated in the new design). Though I believe the 2015 Gamera hand long, thin fingers/claws.
There a few more tweets floating around that seem to show even more similarities than just the head shape.

Well there's a better chance of being struck by lightening twice than Gamera being in the MV. So I don't know why you were ever worried about that. :lol:

Anyway. There was a nice silhouette of the new Gamera SHMA at Tamashii Nations. The shell looks very nice, lots of protruding spikes.

Well, while I've never been struck by lightning I have had a soda vending machine dropped on my big toe, been trampled by a horse, and had a bad case of priapism despite never touching "male enhancement" medication. So I am a bit less hesitant to dismiss the improbable than most.

But yay Gamera is coming back! Finally!

I hope they do that.
Same. I thought it had an interesting design and abilities.

It's currently going on. There's been all sorts of postings showing all the new toys. Plasma fist Gamera 1999 and Iris are among the new figures shown.

I find it kinda interesting that Gamera's chest seems to be glowing green. It reminds me of The Brave, where it means he was charging up a fireball; and they gave it a color swap. Wonder if they went the Shin route and gave the plasma beams a makeover?

I got a feeling it might be showing his connection to some power source or even the Earth.

MV Godzilla glowing blue and Gamera glowing green just feels so right. Now Kong needs like... an turquoise electric power-up. It's really nice seeing all these films use color so well for an aesthetic.

:lol: I was thinking Earthy based colors, so like blues, greens, that would leave Kong with... brown. Which i mean i guess isn't inherently wrong but-

Bottom-right's a fan sculpt of the 2015 Gamera design. Certainly wouldn't be opposed to that design returning in this anime, though, it was super cool.

Awesome. Somehow I missed this. I've sort of been busy with other things, but amazing, this is really exciting.

Is there any reason why people are listing this as 2022 in the thread title? 2022 is about to be over...

I wonder if that's why there's gradually been more Gamera figures. Prep for this!

Bring it on!

I wonder if it’ll be live-action or animated.
