Bandai FRANKENSTEIN, Sanda and Gaira!

[Baltan II]

Gaira looks fantastic, and were it not for losing my job I'd have been thrilled to add him into my collection. How does he stack up alongside your typical 6" figure though? Obviously not to-scale, but just how he appears alongside my Showa kaiju.

Yeah, technically, he's not quite in scale; but aesthetically, I think it works just fine - in fact, I'm pretty sure Gaira's height matches up to where the suit actor in the Godzilla 2001 vinyl would be.

Sanda has landed in Japan now, so I'm hoping to be receiving one very soon from the same dealer.

If you got SAL shipping, it may well be a bit longer. I often choose SAL when buying from Japan because it can be significantly cheaper, but it usually takes around a month to get to me.

Who wants to share their voice? .

Sanda has arrived, and he's looking good - especially side by side with Gaira.



...And here they are with everyone's favorite king of the monsters:

I don’t love Sanda’s pose as much as I do Gaira’s, but neutral is better than being stuck in a terrible pose. So cool to see how they compare to a 6” figure this time too! Very sad to pass on the pair.

Nobody else mentioned it here and I only just saw this, but Bandai showed off their new Baragon sculpt!

After his long month and a half journey, Bandai Frankenstein has arrived.
I am so loving it. This is a great line so far. That header card is so great I almost did not want to take it out pf the bag.

Baragon in January. Presale is on. https://www.kaijubattle.net/godzillatoho-toys

I want an Octopus

[swfreakjpb]

Picked up Baragon. YIKES !!!! It was the most expensive yet. I did not act in time to get in on the pre order unfortunately. The Hand is nice add in at least. I would like the Octopus though instead.

[Rody]

It's great that Bandai is doing these figures at all, but they're so expensive they aren't worth it anymore to me. Does Bandai have that little faith in selling this line, or is the established audience so eager that Bandai knows they can get away with it?
