Godzilla has a presence at SDCC despite Warner Bros./Legendary not being there, besides the announced Toho booth there was a presence at the Famous Monsters booth, NECA booth, and Tamashii booth. The Famous Monsters booth, along with Summit Kaiju, featured a number of X-Plus figures, on display were the Gigantic Godzilla 2019, Kong V2 Fighting Version (as well as V1, 4th Qtr release), and new reveals of DefoReal Ghidorah 2019 (Dec 2019 release), DefoReal Rodan 2019 (placeholder image), and DefoReal Mothra 2019 (placeholder image). NECA had a minimal Godzilla section with packages for King of the Monsters figures and some older ones, what was interesting was the two besides the recent 1956 Poster version, a 1954 in deluxe package and 1984/5 in deluxe package, it is unclear what these are (tag was hidden). Tamashii display wasn't anything new but feature their King of the Monster figures and the Godzilla statue that has been making the rounds. Toho's booth didn't have much that we haven't already known about an interesting note is the box of the Godzilla 1954 exclusive, the top of the box lists years, 1954, 1968, 1974, 2000, and 2020. It's the 2020 that has us and fans intrigued since there has been no official announcements of a 2020 figure or if this is Legendary's or a new Toho version. More updates from SDCC as we get it on all this and possibly more. Pics from Famous Monsters/Summit Kaiju, Toyark, NECA, Tamashii, Toho, CriterionCast, and Kaiju Kingdom Podcast.
Update: NECA's display has been updated (pic below) with other images/packages, and the 1964 figure as well as a 1984/5 that appears to be slightly updated, it is unclear if that figure will be a re-release or a new version. Also a Fire Godzilla 2019 is being released as well down the line. Bandai/Tamashii have announce the S.H. MonsterArts Mothra 2019 & Rodan 2019 Set, which is a Web Shop exclusive but still should be available here via Bluefin. Mothra is 8cm wide and Rodan is 14cm wide, stands for both are included, and price will be 11,000 yen (approx $100 US) for the set. Pre-orders start tomorrow with release scheduled for Nov 2019.
Tamashii/Bandai has officially updated their site with pics and info for both Godzilla 2019 and King Ghidorah from Godzilla: King Of The Monsters. Godzilla is 16cm tall and comes with a ray effect and effect joint (possibly for pose shooting it straight up). it will retail for 7,200 yen (approx $65 US). Ghidorah stands 25cm tall and has a 60cm wingspan, it comes with a stage set (struts to hold wings), and it will retail for 18,360 yen (approx $166 US). Godzilla is scheduled for release May 2019, Ghidorah June 2019, both can be pre-ordered now, there is no word yet on Rodan or Mothra but they should be available to pre-order soon.
Bandai revealed their S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla: King Of The Monsters figures at Tokyo Comic Con. This was a bit of a surprise to us cause we got no other full reveals at the stage presentation with Michael Dougherty, just another teaser trailer and production stills. The four figures give us a good look at the monsters for the first time. Godzilla is updated over the 2014 version, slightly different back fins and feet among other minor changes. Ghidorah looks very similar to past incarnations, a little thinner, more lean with many minor differences. Rodan, which we got the best view of in the first trailer, looks as expected, although it was hard to truly make out most details because of his darker coloring. Mothra is the one they changed the most, while it's wings have a familiar look and coloring, the body is much more insect like with long legs that remind us of Muto legs. Some details are hard to make out because these are articulated figures, with joints affecting the look. No release dates were announced yet but these should be released next year (there is a date of 1/19/2019 on the Tamashii King Of The Monsters page, pre-order date?). More info as we get it.
Shown in a display at Winter Wonder Festival was S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla 2014 Spitfire Version it features a blue spines and ray effect as well as the female Muto's head. It will be approx $70 US and will be released in July.
The display was actually from the Yuji Sakai booth showing different versions of Godzilla 2014 that are forth coming.
We posted about the upcoming Japanese release of Godzilla that would include a special version of the S. H. MonsterArts figure, here is a better look at the figure.
Two variants of the S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla 2014 are coming, well maybe since there is no conformation on these yet. The two variants are an version that features blue back spikes, atomic breath, and a Muto head. The second, which is the one in question, is the poster version featuring a color scheme from the movie poster where he appears lighter in color. No word on release date or price but probably early 2015 and just under $100. Check them both out below.
