It's about 16 inces tall but I think it looks more realistic hunched over so, about 15 inches. Heres a reference photo with the DX G2004 and the Bandai Ghido-Goji

That big Kong is definitely a cool figure, Udin.

Got a few new figures this past week or so. First up is a glow Gigabrain 1965 Godzilla. I'm not a big fan of the color, but it doesn't look half bad on this figure. now if I can only find that glow Gigan. Sorry that the picture is so fuzzy.
Image

Here's a blue 1968 Marmit Godzilla from an old Lucky Bag. I think I liked the color better in photos than when I actually see it in person. I wish the color was a little deeper, but whatever. It's still one of my favorite Marmit sculpts.
Image

A brand new pair of Gigabrain 1962 Godzillas. I have 8 of these things now and I think this is second only to the Gigan as my favorite Gigabrain sculpt.
Image

And here's a pair of new Gigabrain 1964 Godzillas. The more I look at these figures the more I think this is really one of the best 1964 sculpts I've ever seen on a figure like this.
Image

Wow, this is a beautiful figure. I don't buy M-1 reissues of Bullmark figures unless they're really, really cool. And this one is really, really cool. The metallic colors are just fantastic.

I did eventually find a place that still had Soul of Chogokin Kiryu still in stock for relatively cheap.....but with an obscene shipping cost. Also picked up a full wave of gashopons while I was at it to at least compensate for the high shipping, most of which I was pretty happy with. Despite the total price, I did far far better than I would have dealing through eBay for everything. It's funny how some gashopons can look so detailed and perfectly colored, and some others will look so plain(although still really nice for the size).

Image
Image

Gorosaurus and Baragon look pretty good in that pic, but the white used is just much too white imo. There's a whole bunch I don't have pictured(Mothras, Battras, Gigan, Biollante). My only dissappointment was the Garuda attachment for MechaG2. It looks like it's been hit by atomic breath as the cannons are twisted completely out of shape. If anyone has a suggestion on how to fix it, I'd love to hear it. Dang, I love gashopons. At 2 to 3 inches tall, and with a nice amount of detail for the size, they make it easier to collect without clogging up your shelf. I need to snag one of those Hedorah's now. :)

I finally got me a Marmit Parababy Spiega/Kumonga figure.


I also got me an Ultraman candy toy of kaiju Sartan (sp?).


And some finger puppets of Ultraman Noa, Ultraman and the science Patrol ship.

I don't know why, but I really do love those Bandai Hyper-sized kaiju figures like Sartan there. I'm very tempted to buy a case of each of the two individual kaiju sets! Only weird thing is that Garamon comes in both sets. Much more appealing than getting the VS sets, because the Ultraman figures in each of those sets tower over the kaiju.

Love the SDs, as always.

Stopped at Toy Tokyo in NYC this afternoon. It's just staggering to see the sheer volume of Godzilla stuff they have here, with stuff in multiple showcases in three different rooms. Old and new Bandais, craploads of new Marusan and Hazawa figures, lots of Gigabrain and Marmit exclusives, just about all the newest candy toys, and enough odds and ends to keep you looking for quite a while. This is on top of all the Star Wars figures, Disney stuff and various other things.

I picked up several figures I've actually been after for quite a while. Got the Marmit "death trigger" chainsaw Gigan, standard paint and clear Gigabrain Jet Jaguars and the clear green '62 and '64 Gigabrain Godzillas. Definitely a good day.

It would have been funny if I had come across that "super special rare" Marmit Burning Godzilla with a $99 price tag, but obviously that didn't happen. LOL

Yay for more Ultra Kaiju! Geronimon is a brand-new sculpt and comes from the original Ultraman series. Gan Q is a minor repaint and originally from Ultraman Gaia, with some appearances in Ultra Galaxy: Daikaiju Battle.

Last week I got the 1992 Bandai/Bullmark Megalon figure. Today, just now I got the Godzilla 1984(2004) Marmit figure.

Got them both using the Rinkya bidding service. They both look great, and I should have a picture of them tomorrow.

They're all by Gigabrain with the exception of Gigan, who's a Marmit Monster Heaven figure (and in the neat Death Trigger color scheme, yay).

I've put this off for long enough. Got (among a few other things) the Megahouse 62 unpacked last week, but didn't take pictures until now. So anyway, here he is with the 54!

I'll hopefully get the site back up this weekend along with all the previous pics. It'll be something of a pain tranfering to the new DB, but "luckily" no one here signed up for the image hosting *sigh*
