So after searching for a long time I finally found an Angiras I could afford that was in great shape... and its really a cool piece!
But its also really unlike the other Bullmark Godzilla pieces in design and size/scale... I'm wondering what the story is behind it. Its taller but also bigger in all dimensions, maybe 100% more volume than the Bullmark Godzilla.
And of course the style looks more like an Arklon piece than Bullmark. I read that Arklon was founded by ex-Bullmark staff so maybe Angiras is the "missing link" between the earlier Bullmark pieces and what was to become Arklon's designs.
I also noticed that an early Bullmark leaflet only advertises Godzilla, MechaGodzilla, and King Ghidora... so Gigan, Baragon, then Angiras were made later.
BTW, someone on Ebay who is selling one wrote that the Pink shell version is more rare than the purple shell... is that true?
