From Tamashii/Bandai, via August Ragone, comes new info on what we now know is the Chogokin X Tamashii Mix Mechagodzilla Poster Version. The figure is a crossover between the two lines because it will feature both plastic and metal components.
Base on a design featured in a poster by Noriyoshi Ohrai for Godzilla Vs Mechagodzilla '93 it was intended to be much different than the final version we got in the film. There aren't much details yet, they will be announced end of April, as well as an interview with Shinji Nishikawa in Hobby Japan. Thanks to August for the heads up on this.
