This figure stands 31cm tall (approx 12 inches) and will retail for 28,080 yen for the non-Ric version (approx $250 US). It is not known what the Ric feature maybe but probably a bonus item. It scheduled for release in April and the non-Ric can be pre-ordered now from AmiAmi and other retailers. Update: the Ric version will include a "glitter" paint scheme (close-up bottom pic) but is otherwise the same, it will retail for 29,700 yen (approx $261 US).        Cospa is releasing more Godzilla T-Shirts, a Godzilla Tour shirt and a G-Force shirt. The Tour shirt features Godzilla (in Japanese and English) over a footprint on the front, with the Godzilla films and dates on the back.

  X-Plus surprise us by posting a blacked out banner that reveals GMK Ghidorah, it appears to be a Large Monster Series figure and one that has not been shown at any shows or cons. X-Plus also blacked out the Kaiser Ghidorah banner apparently because it is delay. It is said these both appear to be based on non-X-Plus kits released in the past. More info as we get it.   X-Plus has revealed the official pics and info on their 30cm Series Burning Godzilla '95 figure. The figure stands 33cm tall (approx 13 inches) and the Ric comes with an Oxygen Destroyer, which seems odd because that is something they have offered previously with figures and many were hoping for a different bonus. Pre-orders start now with release in April and it will retail for 25,920 yen (approx $230 US). They were suppose to also reveal Kaiser Ghidorah but that seems to be pushed back. 
Chara-Ani is releasing more Kaiju Netsuke figures, Shin Godzilla Final Form, Shin Godzilla Second Form, and Godzilla 1962. These deformed style figures stand 60mm tall (a little over 2 inches), they come with a collectible wood box and name plate (w/ring to attach to a key chain). They retail for 10,800 yen (approx $94 US), yes they are not cheap for their size. Pre-orders start now with release in March 2017 from Hobby Search and other retailers. 
 X-Plus will be releasing a limited Winter Wonder Festival Exclusive Godzilla '54 Train Biter Electric Train Color Version, this is the Natural color version revealed back in Dec with the train being a reddish color instead of the brown, otherwise it appears to be the same figure. It's 34cm tall and 42cm in length, and will retail for 23,000 yen (it is actual slightly less expensive than the natural color version). It will most likely be limited to Wonder Festival. Winter Wonder Festival is Feb 19, 2017 at Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall.
