Acro is releasing the Kaiju Remix Series King Ghidorah figure by James Groman. This figure stands approx. 40cm tall (15.75 inches), it features webbing from Mothra and Kumonga, bite marks from Anguirus, feet marks from Gorosaurus' kick, tail wound, and it retails for approx. $348 US. It is available for pre-order from Acro, Sideshow, and other retailers soon with release scheduled for May 2027.


"I remember one of our local TV stations in Cleveland showing the 1964 film: Ghidorah: The 3 Headed Monster at midnight Saturday evening at a time when I was too young to be aloud to stay up and watch it. The title alone was enough to get my young mind racing, because I had no idea what the 3 headed Kaiju looked like at the time. It was not until years later I was able to see the amazing three headed space dragon in a totally different film, entitled Destroy all Monsters.


More than likely, most of you reading this are giant monster fans, so you will remember this film being the absolute embodiment of any monster kids ultimate fantasy brought to life. A film populated by almost the entire roster of Toho Studios extensive rogues gallery of imaginative Kaiju. The end battle between the entire monster cast and the golden space dragon himself was the films incredible high point, as each one of the heroic Kaiju take turns biting, kicking, stomping, and beating on the multi-headed monster in defense of the planet until he is just a scaled heap on the forest floor.


Surprisingly, having worked in the Toy and Collectables industry for over 40 years, I haven’t had the opportunity to design or sculpt more of the great Toho monsters. Though I’ve done sketches of Rodan, Angirus, Mothra and even Gargantuas, the only Toho Studios kaiju I’ve ever sculpted is Godzilla. So when Kaz and I were talking about what Toho Studio beastie I would tackle next, I was so excited to hear his choice was none other than the fantastic King Ghidorah, the 3 Headed Monster.


The classic 1968 Showa version of King Ghidorah has always my favorite version of the monster, with his big baggy folds of flesh and disheveled scales sticking out every which way. And since I am known for filling my designs and sculptures with lots of fun storytelling “Easter egg” style details, we decided to revisit that big bad Kaiju brawl at the climax of Destroy all Monsters and add little bits of battle damage that harken back to some of the other monsters individual attacks on the villainous beast. Being able to play around with the proportions of the character and exaggerate his anatomy, scale work and facial expressions on the 3 heads along with other details was so creatively satisfying.


Kaz and I hope you love our creative take on one of the Toho Studios most fabulously memorable movie monsters. I hope to get to tackle some other of the studios monstrous creations at a future date. Stay tuned!" - James Groman
