Personally, I'm of the opinion that people feel like they have to like the X-Plus figures - just have to - because of the money they're constantly putting into collecting them month after month.
I just hope there isn't some serious flaw or quality control issue with that Biollante. For almost a grand ($200 for shipping alone has gotta hurt) you should be getting a flawless vinyl masterpiece.
And for the record, the X-Plus figures I have are Gorosaurus (love it), Angilas (almost perfect, love it), Gigan (misfire, the Marmit kit is better), Minya (love it), Godzila 1968 (seriously flawed, but not terrible), Jet Jaguar (love it) and Ebirah (really like it).
I'm at the point where I'm ONLY going to buy new X-Plus figures if they do characters that are SEVERELY under-represented in vinyl. Rodan 1964/65, 1968 Manda, Kumonga, Kamakiras and Gabara are the only ones I can see myself picking up.
