X-Plus Vinyl Figures Discussion Thread

I didn't know they were resin. That's dangerous for the thing in transit and once it gets here. I'm out XD

Looks like Destoroyah is happening.



It looks like this is a 25cm scale figure based on the size comparison with the G14. Maybe a 25cm Burning G will also happen?

Why would we get a Burning G? Of all the post Biollante films X-Plus has given us 12 figures...and not a single movie has a full roster present. (Tokyo SoS is closest at 1 Goji, 2 Kiryus, and No Mothras). I'm done trying to predict.

It pisses me off that no toy company has a complete DAM line up in their catalogs. Shamefully stupid if you ask me.

Some really awkward pics of G91 showed up in the Godzilla facebook groups earlier...these look much better. I can't decide if I want to get him just yet.

I saw those pics too and agree that they aren't the best. I'll definitely share some photos when my figure comes in. I wonder if the regular releases will have the same tail support as the Ric exclusive version.

[walshiam]

I don't see any flaws in the picture or the figure. That figure has to be one of the best X-Plus has done thus far.

Gah - now I want this.

^ Yeah, but that is msrp, so it's very possible that the figures will be priced below that. You can actually get some of the $160 diamonds for about $130 when they're first released if you know where to look. I'd totally agree that $400+ for Ghidorah is pretty ridiculous tho, as is Biollante at $600.

That egg base is good enough to have been a Ric-boy exclusive. I felt conflicted on this release since i already had the X-Plus Mothra 61, (with Japanese X-Plus releases if you're on the fence, buy it, you can easily sell it if buyers regret sets in) but i am very impressed with this release

[ILL GREEN]

That is NUTS!!!

That looks money well spent. Love the matte painting just like the movie.

I thought about buying Mothra but that GhidoG appeared and you know...

[Hybrid Gojira]

He made it! Pardon the crappy pic quality...it's also so much better in person. This is my second favorite release from X Plus behind the Gigantic 95 I own.

The '91 Godzilla and '64 Mothra both look spectacular. Really wish I had the disposable income for these right now. Especially that Godzilla. Sometimes it's frustrating how the collectible market has gone to "buy it now or pay 3 or more times the retail price in the future". I don't mind waiting for things, but you can't really do that these days. And so many of the prices go so high that, even if I could afford it, I'm not willing to spend that much because the market value has far exceeded the personal value i would place on obtaining it.

The G91 looks great. Didn't realize how far down the spines started on his back.

I actually like that the 91G has lowered spikes - it gives Godzilla a more powerful look.

X-Plus G '91 has arrived. The figure is fantastic in-hand. This is easily one of my favorite Godzilla figures from X-Plus.

Got the awesome 25cm Gorosaurus today. This might be my favorite Xplus figure yet (which is saying something as I love the 25cm Anguirus figure). Missed out on this guy 3 years ago and have been kicking myself even since, so I wasn't about to again. Gorosaurus is prime example of what Xplus is truly capable when they're "on". Great stuff! The only real drawback is that I think it kind of sucks that they didn't include the mini Explorer sub from KKE as a Ric Boy exclusive like they did 3 years ago (yet they still charged the same price), but that's only a minor quibble. On to the photos!

Guess i was wrong... 25cm Desugoji

also a Gamera reissue in the real masters collection (resin instead of vinyl, higher quality, more fragile)

@Klen - I get why they would release a 25cm Burning G to go with Destoroyah, but the sculpt really does nothing for me. It looks kinda dull.
