'Rewatched Godzilla VS King Gidorah again, so the Godzilla from return and Biollante is just displaced from time then huh? Has there ever been any media about what happened to him?

With the Futurians hovering over him at the beginning of the film when Godzilla was fucked up from the bacteria and that factoid about animals being easier to teleport when they aren't moving and, I'm going to fanfic that the future people teleported the original Heisei Goji through time to the future to make him into a Gigan-esque weapon, that's preferable to him just being gone. He could then be brought back into the past to get revenge and he has to fight Gozilla Junior.

And to make the post actually /toy/ related I decided to get the Mecha King Ghidorah SHMA, I'm running out of shelf space. I mostly got it since it's the only viable figure rep of that silly Terminator knockoff, GVKG is such a silly film with some really heartfelt moments.';

'>>10981472
Considering Biollante is reference in GvsSpaceGodzilla and the Super X in GvsDestoroyah is called Super X3, I don't think '80s Godzilla was displaced at all. I think the Futurians tried to get rid of Godzillasaurus but he just ended up becoming Godzilla again anyway through some other means.';

'>>10981505
The subs on the torrent I watched might be fucked but the wiki says a soviet sub crashed near the dino at some point before 1984 and that it was still the same Godzilla throughout the events of Heisei, but in the version I watched they didn't confirm anything about soviets, they only speculated on there being nuclear waste in the area. The godzilla from before the time travel did disappear though and I guess he was just totally replaced with the new timeline one, there's definitely potential for a story in there somwhere.';

The way I always figured it, they never realized there were two Godzillas. They changed the Godzilla who attacked in 1954, they changed the fate of the second one. The one they moved still ended up becoming the one who attacked in 84.
To get more fanwanky, the timeline disruption is why I like to think the Heisei and Showa timelines split after 54. It doesn't really make sense, but like to think time being altered caused ripple effects.';

This is close to the theory I saw.
Bascially they didn't change anything, it was a Terminator situation, they were always meant to go back to transport that Godzillasaurus which eventually would get hit by a sub to attack in the 80s.
And 50s Godzilla was somewhere else on that island and got transformed normally.';

'>>10981574
>>10981798
It's probably not even that complicated, I think the Futurians just didn't change anything about the past at all, but rather the future. That is, everything that happened up to the day they time travel still happened. All they did was change how Godzilla emerged (or re-emerged) to after they came back. The point is that Godzilla is inevitable, past present and future.';

'>>10983507
Started out leaning toward Synapsid like most of the previous Godzillas. Showa, Heisei, and at least KiryuGoji all have skulls that are almost definitively those of a synapsid because of their single temporal fenestra. The presence of mammal-like external ears in several of the Showa, Heisei, and Millenium designs also pushes far more toward Godzilla being a Synapsid, even though he's often called a dinosaur in the Show and Heisei eras. Instead of being a dinosaur, Goji is more like a Sphenacodontid like Dimetrodon.

The picture of Dagon's skeleton from G14 lined up with the older "Godzilla is a Synapsid" idea, and was even more extreme in how mammalian it was despite losing the external ears. Dagon's skull almost looks like a bear skull.

The promo for GxK and the new Bandai Skeleton for MV Goji is a huge shift away from Godzilla is a Synapsid to Godzilla is a Sauropsid and even more it looks like Godzilla is some kind of Archosauromorph. He's got an Antorbital fenestra which is only found in Archosaurs like dinosaurs and basal Crocodylomorphs. His Naris is much more reptilian than the more mammal Naris of the older Godzilla.';

>MKG is tempting for the price,
I like him and his accessories are great, but his left head loves to fall off at even the slightest touch
>Biollante's aftermarket price is starting to come down. I just don't like the movie enough for the shelf space
Vs, Biollante is my favorite Heisei movie so it was an easy choice for me, but she is an absolute unit. Her, MV Ghidorah, and Irys are real shelf hogs.
>Also, you should get the upcoming 1991 Godzilla MMS too.
I've got the first SHMA Godzilla and 89 so I mostly think I'm fine with Heisei Goji's. I might pick up the MMS, Hiya, or SHMA, but I'm pretty indifferent to getting a third Heisei Godzilla.

>>10989854
>Little
You reminded me that I forgot that I still need Junior.
>Destoroyah
I'll probably still end up picking up the SHMA when he gets his inevitable 3rd release from SHMA, but I really like the size difference of the Super7 when compared to the SHMA Godzilla, plus like 80% of the people I know who bought the SHMA Destroyah have had their wings break.
>Also picked-up Hedorah for my birthday, really liking him so far.
Hedorah is a fantastic figure. I'd say that SHMA has been killing it with their Showa figures, but even though Gigan looks amazing, I hate posing him because of his fins. Hedorah looks like a collector's figure should, but is still easy to play with without fear of breaking him.';

'>>10990176
I've become a hedorah addict as well. Got something of him from every company. One thing I'll say is that the monsterarts isn't worth it. His design doesn't need the joints, they made his eyes really dim for some reason and worst of all their '72 Godzilla towers over him.';

I'm amazed they're already doing something outside of the original era since there's still a ton of potential monsters there. I'd also like to say Flame Wingman but just due to proportions he'd feel more like a Figuarts, as only his wings feel like Monsterarts. I'd assume they'll pull from a monster used in the show, so a Cyber Dragon? Winged Kuriboh Lvl 10? If it was 5Ds Stardust Dragon would be a pretty obvious one.

Excited to hear that more is coming, but hopefully none of these companies step on each other's toes. And where are the SHF? A lot of the main monsters from the show and popular ones are humanoid after all.';

'>>10991738
I feel like Bandai's weird about overlapping monsterarts and figuarts, like unless I'm forgetting something no series has figures in both the lines.
Like all the Ultraman kaiju are under the Figuarts brand, same goes for Shenron and Porunga from the Dragonball line, meanwhile Jet Jaguar is a Monsterart.';

'>>10991894
That's a fair point, ya, I can't think of a precedent where any brand has both SHMA and SHF. Are there any examples of a smaller humanoid monster in SHMA? There's Kong and like you mentioned Jet Jaguar (both versions), but their proportions aren't exactly humanoid in the way that someone like Dark Magician is. If they don't ever target those kinds of monsters that would seem like a pretty big missed opportunity for Yu-Gi-Oh since like I mentioned a lot of the popular ones would be more in-line with SHF sizing and proportions. It also seems like a mistake if they do tackle a monster like Dark Magician since one would think the expertise of designers in handling articulation for humanoids would be with the SHF team (and I'm going to be honest, based on Ultraman, at least the more recent ones, they're making better monsters than the SHMA team too (though they've made some great things too)).';

Why did you buy a figure that had bad colors, no accessories, clearly limited neck articulation with the pre-posed S curve necks, and a visible underbite in the promo pictures? I'm not saying the figure isn't bad, but just like the Hiya Kong it was clear from the start it was going to have a lot of problems. This figure has better articulation, better paint, and detailing that seems to be just as good without having to rely on CGI files.';

100% think its bc of Yuji Sakai. Bandai taps him for the figs to give them credibility since an actual series vet is sculpting them, which lets them jack up the price. Afaik he only directly worked on 3 films, so having him sculpt other Kaiju is the same as getting anyone else, but that cred lets Bandai charge more for no good reason. Sakai's good, but clearly you can get along fine without someone like him.';

'>>10997112
t. SHMonstercuck';

'>>10997120
Not him, but I have one and it does give me trouble. The wings are a mess no matter what you do to them, each section has to be clicked together, and when you unclick them, each section is on little fragile balls that have to twist and turn just right in order to look halfway decent. Just moving them scratches off the paint, and on mine it seems to actually sand off the material to some degree. I was afraid of wearing it down more, so I'm content to let the wings stay as they are. Then the articulation is minimal, only a few of the joints in the necks and tails have any range at all. It looks fine, I think I prefer the basic colour over the special edition personally even though I do intend to give it some paint at some point, but it's a very finicky figure.';

'>>10997392
That somehow sounds even more finicky than my SHMA. Though with the trade off of not being as posable I guess. Still has nice shelf presence. Also nice KG collection, which are your favorites? My only other one is a MKG vinyl.';

If I may suggest. The bicep swivels are on balljoints. I just moved mine all the way inward. Something else that helped me was putting both hands on the axe separately from the figure, then move the arms accordingly and peg them on when aligned.';

'>>10997527
I'm rather fond of Trendmasters, obviously, if not only because I'm old and these were some of the first Godzilla figures I was able to acquire. As for which is the most fun, I'd have to say one of my current favourites the Jakks Ghidorah. Rather basic as they go, gave it some slight highlights as it was a solid colour originally, wing movement is simple, and the rotating heads can find a few interesting poses. I'm getting used to the new gigantic lad, and I suppose I'll bond with him as I give him gold highlights of his own. I don't have any Monsterarts versions yet, as I'm holding out that they sometime include Showa Ghidorah or especially the Void Ghidorah, though I doubt that last one.';

'>>10997756

Damn, plenty more reason to not even consider it, what a shame. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a renewal or a release from some other company (ie hiya)';

'Trying to decide between the SOFVICS Ichiban/Ichibansho vs the Spiral Studios Godzilla evolved statues.

I like the sculpt and pose on the former better, I think, but it's clearly not as high quality and the size is smaller vs the Spiral, being 22 vs 27cm.

The thing that gives me pause is the Spiral Studios would nearly be in scale (around the size of MV Goji in 2014, not in the sequels/GxK) with the Sakai X-plus Shin Godzilla statue, Albatross Orga statue (both of which I have) and the Godzilla 2000s SHMA (which I want); wheras the Ichibansho statue would clearly be too small...

...but it might actually be in scale somewhat with the Hiya Ghidorah Gravity Beam figure, which makes more sense to pair with MV goji anyways? Godzilla would still obviously be too big, but it may not be too crazy?

----------

Anyways, autistic rambling aside: Is anybody here familar with the SOFVICs Ichiban statues and Spiral Studios ones and can comment on how closely the press photos match the sculpt and paint job of the final statues? I know with figuarts and Monsterarts, the press images often look significantly better then the final product

>>10997865
sadly, I like the Sakai sculpt the SHMA miregoji uses more then suit design. Gonna have to pay a scalper for one some day';

'>>10997920
I have the SOFVICS shin and gxk godzillas. The Shin is huge and one of the best figures in my collection, especially for the price. GxK is well sculpted and good QC, but he's a bit smaller and his paint is a little off from the films. Almost entirely sand color. That said, I'm getting their Minus One Heat Ray ver. I'd take a photo of em with some other stuff for ya but they're packed. The only time they've missed is their Burning Godzilla, so odds are you'll be perfectly happy with their Evolved. I hated that fucking movie so I'm not touching that.

I know the meme is that Hiya gets better with each reissue/repaint, but I genuinly dont know how they can fix a lot of the issues with Ghidorah without radically changing things about the sculpt and articulation.

The only issue that should be an easy fix is the underbite.';

Of course they do, but my point is that preorders aren't yet open, and they have a teaser without the price listed. But I'd have to think it'll be up for preorder along with whatever else at the start of June. I guess 5-6 months is the usual turnaround time from preorder to shipment, but I guess this just feels quicker because there was no info on it until earlier this week with the teaser. I guess it was like that for the Kenshin figures too. Maybe I'm just not really paying attention...';

Is Cyber Dragon not just a noodle? I'll pretend they're working with Kaiyodo in secret, in which case the next logical choice would be Stardust Dragon.
