X-Plus has announced that they will be releasing their Godzilla/Toho vinyl figures to US customers via their US site. This is a win for US fans because up to now fans would have to go the route of a buying service, or some other means, to get these figures. That round about method would cause them additional cost. While fans would still be paying international shipping it makes it much easier to get these figures now. There are still questions particularly if this affects their agreement with Diamond or not, Diamond cancelled most unreleased figures they had planned. Check out the X-Plus press release below.
