Between the Ricboy website and the SFJ article, i actually hadn't seen that pose


I agree that i am not a fan

Ultraseven and Kanegon have been added to the release list for X-Plus.. as well as some bird kaiju from Ultraseven.

I was on the fence about picking up Space Godzilla, and in the past when i have been on the fence I usually pick up the figure because one the preorder is over the prices get silly.. but i think i'm just going to hope for an eventual 25cm release.

i was beginning to wonder if the approved paint scheme for Space Godzilla would be up before the preorder period ended (i think 25cm Varan had a similar issue).. but the shots are up and it looks great imho. I would like to see some better pictures of the tip of the tail. I

it looks like they are teasing Red Man as an upcoming release if you'd rather something a bit more obscure.

well i just finished dropping a pretty penny not too long ago on the closed mouth 64 Goji, and now it looks like the open mouth will be released in the US for half as much as i paid... at least mine has the light up gimmick...

Anyway, its a great sculpt, i'd highly recommend picking it up.

X-Plus put some photos of their booth at Super Festival up on their blog...

i hope the absence of Toho figures isn't indicative of things to come... It's like CCP all over... at least Gigabrain keeps parading out the same 73 Gigan sculpt with new paints.

No news yet for November's offerings.

Like I've been saying for a while now...I'm pretty solid as far as my figure collection goes.

BUT I'd buy an X Plus Ultraseven X in a heartbeat. I've also recently decided that I'm not happy with the Showa Gamera they recently released....so...I'd gladly exchange it if X Plus ever makes a 25cm Advent Gamera from Gamera the Brave
