Toho is re-releasing all of the Godzilla movies on DVD ahead of the release of the new film Shin Godzilla.

These movies, which include the American Godzilla films, will feature added content including audio commentary, postcards, stickers, as well as having special packaging.

They will be released on June 15, 2016 and retail for 2700 yen (approx $24 US) and will be available from Amazon Japan and maybe available through other retailers as well.

These are Japanese releases and are not available outside of Japan for other regions.

It is odd that these are being released since they have all been released on Blu-ray recently for Godzilla's 60th Anniversary only two years ago.

Earlier we posted the announcement regarding Shin Godzilla including the Godzilla Vs Evangelion promo print now we have more pics of the merchandise (below) and there were logos as well (above) besides the print. There was rumor as well of a crossover movie but that part was a April Fool's joke on Toho's part but considering Neon Genesis Evangelion director Hideaki Anno is doing Shin Godzilla is wasn't so far fetched.

Nico Nico Super Conference 2016 will have some major Shin Godzilla happens. (Nico Nico Super Conference is an event with the concept of reproducing “Nico Nico Video” live. In addition to Nico Nico Video user, there are also various exhibitors, Sumo, Pro-Wrestlers, Police, Self-Defense Forces, jumbling together to making a chaos event.) The event is April 29-30, from what we can tell there will be props, miniatures, special effects demos, and possibly the first full reveal of Shin Godzilla. The event takes place at Makuhari Messe. It is unsure if Director Anno Hideaki will be at the event but it is a good possibility. Some highlights from the translation below.
  • Special effects experience studio, back home have been special effects museum
  • Here attractions!
  • You can experience the special effects of the technique!
  • The world's first unveiling! It will showcase the template of Shin Godzilla!
  • You can see the miniature that is used in the actual shooting in front of the eyes!
Update: Quote from Stan Hyde - "the upshot is that the final maquette of Shin Godzilla (GODZILLA RESURGENCE) will be exhibited at the festival so that the new Godzilla (or at least one of the versions of him in the film) will be seen. Sculptor of the final maquette, as noted earlier, is (the awesome) Takayuki Takeya."
