Ask and you shall slightly receive.

Standard version with less roary head and 3000 yen difference.

Xplus editon gets both heads for the extra money. But still, how could the Pacific Rim line NOT get light up features?

^ they save that for the WonderFest reissue

Once upon a time I had the Gigantic Burning G ric...which I sold awhile back. I bought him again and he arrived yesterday (yay for seller's remorse, I guess). In my opinion, it's still the best X Plus release and the Oxygen Destroyer is probably the coolest ric extra I'm aware of.

^ That is a gorgeous figure

Heisei G has always been my favorite design, and the sheer ferocity of this sculpt makes it my favorite. The upcoming Gigantic 62 looks great as well.

I already have a giant Knifehead, and not too excited about a Leatherback.

Call me when they announce Slattern!

I have a number on the bottom of my Battra.. has X-Plus started numbering their figures? Mine says 02506

[DannyBeane]

Just put in a pre-order pm the sakai 91 re-issue. I feel like this is a mandatory figure for me. http://www.thevampirerobots.com/preorde ... vmjgs2z46f

All right gang, I need your help locating some figures.
I was recently in Japan, and saw a boxed set (cardboard box with black writing) of Final Wars Godzilla and 1954 Godzilla, no more than 6 inches tall. Not sure if they were kits or pre-assembled, but I'm pretty sure they were X-plus. I didn't have the space for them, but I regret not getting them and was hoping I could get some help figuring out what they heck they really were.

EDIT: Found out that they're from the Kaiju/Special Effects Museum collection: http://ric-toy.ne.jp/item_toho_m_pb.html
Found a few for sale (of course, more expensive than the ones I saw in Japan - should have bought them then and there!). Does anybody have pictures of these that aren't stock photos?

I got them. Both figures are under 4 inches tall. Very detailed (especially for the size) but very overpriced. I'll try to get pics up tonight.

::EDIT:: i posted some pictures up on my tumblr and instagram side by side with their 30cm counterparts

I would like to get the remaining 3 figures they've shown (more so than the 2 they released) but i'd be willing to bet these didn't sell well. It seemed like the order period for these kept getting pushed back, and then out of nowhere they switched from resin to vinyl... I got into collecting with the small scale figures so i do have a soft spot for these (and its easy to display them in between larger figures) but i think the price tag was about double what it should have been.

Thanks for posting the pictures!
They do look REALLY good, but I have a hard time with that price, especially knowing I could have bought them for less just a few weeks ago. And knowing that they're only 4 inches.
I'll keep my eye out for a deal.
