 It seems Bandai Premium is re-releasing two X-Plus Gigantic Series Godzillas, 2001 and 1954. Both include the extras that came with the Ric versions. This is somewhat of a surprise since they were not released that long ago. Godzilla 2001 is 37.5cm tall and 78cm in length, and will retail for 37,800 yen. Godzilla 1954 is 44cm tall and 75cm in length, and will retail for 49,896 yen. They both are scheduled to be released Feb 2017. 
Inori Kito is a Japanese designer/artist known for her "Little People" artwork, and the Animation Addict Store is releasing a few items featuring Shin Godzilla artwork by her. It is sort of cartoon style art featuring Shin Godzilla (in all his forms) army personal, military vehicles, and buildings in a "cute" pattern. The items being released are a Big T-Shirt, Canvas Shoulder Tote, iPhone Book Case, and Bandana. The shirt is a one size fits all, and all items come white with color print or black with white print. The items will retail for 3,900 yen for the shirt, 3,500 for the tote, 4,000 for the case, and 1,800 for the bandana. All items can be pre-order from the Animation Addict Store with release in April.

As we posted a few days ago it was revealed there was an X-Plus exclusive at Super Festival 73, Gigantic Series Godzilla 1995 Kit (Burning Godzilla). Now we have found out more from Kyle Yount (Kaijucast), via John from Kaiju Addicts, that we are getting a Large Monster Series Gabara (unpaint prototype was displayed) and what looks to be a 30cm Godzilla 1999 with clear orange fins (possible a Ric exclusive?). From the tag Gabara with be released in June, unfortunately we aren't sure on Godzilla 1999's release (the tag was cut off in the pic). One figure missing from the show, or at least no pic was shown, was Gappa. Gappa was posted on the Ric Twitter page a few days ago with simply "Happy New Year", no word yet on a release. More info as we get it on these figure and check out the pics below.
 On the website for this weekends Super Festival 73 is the listing for exclusive items for the show, one very interesting item is the Gigantic Series Godzilla 1995 Kit. This is a kit version of the Gigantic Series Burning Godzilla that has been released in a few forms already. It states it's 48cm tall and 25,000 yen, the price (approx $215 US) is less than what previous versions sold for being it is a kit. This is an unpaint kit molded in clear and black from the new pics. It does not give a quantities that will be available.
 Kadokawa is releasing the Toho Large Monster Series Shin Godzilla Soft Vinyl Assembly Kit Red Clear Version. Yes this appears to be the same figure as the X-Plus version (and Mook/figure set) just in red vinyl. Like the X-Plus/Bandai purple kit we posted previously this is an 18 piece vinyl kit but features a closed mouth pose. It's 25cm tall (approx 10 inches) and 50cm long (approx 20 inches) and will retail for 10,800 yen (approx $91 US). Pre-orders are open now on the Kadokawa site, with release scheduled for March. Of note this figure does not appear to glow-in-the-dark like the purple one (we will update if we find out otherwise).      |
