For the most part Godzilla looks great. The detail and stance really captures the attitude and personality of the suit far better than the 30cm version, which I sold earlier this year in order to afford this one. The battle-ready stance is terrific, and it gives the figure a lot of character. I don't mind the open lower jaw for the most part. It sits flush against against the rest of the mouth and pops in really easy when you heat up the figure with a blow dryer. Definitely loving it more that the terrible, misaligned lower jaw that was permanently attached to the 30cm figure.
The little Minya that comes with this one is great and is definitely NOT a scaled down version of the larger version from the 30cm series. It's just as good though and the face sculpt is damn near perfect. I'm not the biggest Minya fan in the world, but I'm glad I got ahold of the internet exclusive so I could get this little guy.
Now the bad news. That second jaw, the one that's supposed to give Godzilla a closed-mouth appearance. Well...it didn't work out that way. It pops on just fine and sits flush against the rest of the mouth just like the open jaw. The only problem is...well...I'm show you...
Isn't the mouth supposed to be completely closed? Kind of a waste to have this second jaw if the mouth looks like Godzilla just lost all of his lower teeth. I was really anticipating a 1968 Godzilla figure with a closed mouth. That's how I was going to display it. Guess I can't now. Anyone think there's a way to force the mouth closed?
