Just picked up Space Godzilla this week and he's a beautiful figure! When I put him next to my Figuarts... kinda wish they had that kind of care in the sculpts (though they are still my favorite line). Ready to get some new figures, especially curious about the EVA monsters they got planned, and I'm hoping for a Gamera and maybe a Peter Jackson King Kong. What other Kaiju do you guys think they'd do for this series?
Give me ALL the Showa era monsters and im good. I really would prefer the original showa King Ghidorah over the Hesei version. I wonder if they'll do that one as well.
I cant even imagine what a SH Monsterarts Hedorah would look like or even King Caesar. The list can go on forever. Titanosaurus would be awesome as well.

Too bad Kaiyodo is handling the Showa monsters. They won't be in scale with MonsterArts.

S.H. Monsterarts Little Godzilla « Reply #192 on Jun 4, 2012, 6:26am »
Anyone is going to pre-order this lil' Zilla junior? It looks cute and it reminds me of Godzuki from the 1978/81 TV cartoon series but I am not sure if I am gonna buy it!

I have one preordered from Big Bad Toy Store. Had to do it. It was just so different from all of the other figures in my collection. Tough to pass him up.
Now I'm seriously considering that Ghidora figure; that thing is amazing!

S.H.MonsterArts King Kong? « Reply #194 on Jun 4, 2012, 7:58pm »
I just bought the King of Monsters I do not think that I had a Godzilla figure before (but perhaps I had a rubber one when I was 2 - 3 yrs old) although it's one of my favorite monsters ever along with King Kong!
BTW, do you think Bandai will make a Kong for the M.S. Monsterarts line?
