>>11659535That's no mystery, but for his possible poseability, he won't be worth whatever obscene price they ask, no matter how much I like the movie
Anyone own any Maursan figure by chance? I say since may pick one up since I heard they're like Marmit in the investment kind of deal in the collecting community be it Japanese or overseas. Plus always liked those more artsy sofubi figure lines.
>>11659535Enjoy the Bandai rape $450 price tag.
>>11659572I don't own a Marusan myself. Closest thing I have in my possession is pic related. This right here is a Marmit 1962 (I think parababy) Godzilla with a Nato Base building. I sadly took it out the bag like a idiot 15-17 years ago. Reason was when I got it, I mainly did so because around that time I was looking for a 1962 Godzilla to go with my movie monster series collection I had. Back then, the 1962 memorial box as well as the likes of 1964 and 1984 were going over 200 ish dollars so me and my high school ass couldn't afford it so got this as my stand in for about 30-40 dollars. I now obviously own the actual figures in question, but kept this guy around because of the history had with it, and it's kind of cool in its own right. As of right now, think this exact figure with unopened with the bad and header is going for 150ish-200 dollars. Wish still had the bag and header, but hoping it's around somewhere in my house since fairly certain I never threw them out.
when will we get Godzilla minus two?
>>11659614Ain't no way its coming out for under $500 and will be a bare bones release to boot. Bandai have gotten greedy with this line.
Anyone know how to make the connection more secure on hiya Ghidorah 's right head? It doesn't feel like it's going in all the way
>>11659572> I say since may pick one up since I heard they're like Marmit in the investment kind of deal Marusan is the original producer of sofubi godzilla toys in the 60s so there is extra cred there. I don't know what kind of investment return you're looking for here, the market for genuine vintage marusan is ruthless at this point.
>>11659554He could barely fucking move so I'm not expecting the figure to be able to do much.
>>11659572Buying toys as an investment is never a good idea. That said, almost all soft vinyl/sofubi are made in limited runs and generally go up in value over time. The maker matters less than how many were made in a run and how desirable the mold or colorway is.I have several from Marusan, Marmit, Bullmark and Gigabrain. I personally like the Marmit sculpts the best, but its all personal opinion. Soft vinyl is made to "look cool" and that's it. Base your entire decision to get one on how you think it looks, not how much it might eventually be worth. Keep the header from the bag and you can sell it later if you choose.
>>11659890>Buying toys as an investment is never a good idea.I know, but seeing the prices of some of the brands you listed make me want to consider it because damn some of them fetch a pretty penny, and doesn't help either this video may of been the reason why I kind of want to get into this game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5neRq6wZodo&t=49s
>>11659930Some toys can appreciate in value quite a bit, but remember, you still have to be able to actually find a buyer willing to pay you. This means going to a swap or convention, or more likely using ebay. Toy buyers on ebay can be some of the absolute worst people on earth to deal with. You will get harassed and scammed at every opportunity. If you want to collect a toy, collect it for yourself.. not to sell it later.
>>11659961Well a part of me wants to at least own something I know for a fact is like a one of a kind figure or close to it that at least some form of value down the line.
>>11659822Wow, not even I can imagine they would go 500
>>11659987>Well a part of me wants to at least own something I know for a fact is like a one of a kind figure or close to it that at least some form of value down the line.But something cheap and re-paint it into a unique work or art.
>>11659987Then start small like a more recently released Maursan or Marmit. I recommend getting say a King Ghidorah or a Heisei Godzilla if you can since those tend to be the most valuable down the line. >>11660200There's a difference between something you yourself will enjoy and have no value than something you buy that's official and gain value later. A collection is good, but a collection that has value when times get bad on your end is even better. But then again, better to invest into volcano insurance than toys I guess lol.
>>11660321You just need to realize how small the big money goji collecting community is. Toys are a bad investment.
>>11660583>You just need to realize how small the big money goji collecting community is.Well that depends on what you mean by community. Overseas, it is indeed small. In Japan however, there's a reason why those figures continue to only get more expensive by the year. If there really was no market, then the resellers would be out of a gig.
>>11659572>I heard they're like Marmit in the investment kind of deal in the collecting community be it Japanese or overseasYou won't get rich with toys, never ever. Scalping shit is bad as it is, too, if you want to get money I suggest you to submit some job applications.
>>11660993You can equally say buying toys in general is a waste of money. May as well call /toy/ thread "/ms/" which stands for money stolen.
>>11660993>You won't get rich with toysMost won't.>>11660993>Scalping shit is bad as it isYes because retards actually are willingly going to spend such, otherwise scalping wouldn't exist. >>11660993>if you want to get money I suggest you to submit some job applications.Wrong answer my dude. You start a business up if you want money, not wage slave it for someone else.
>>11661054I think the way most people "buy toys" is a waste of money because it's the shopping, keeping up with releases and shitposting that is the hobby. Once the thing is bought it's basically forgotten because NEXT THING is on the horizon. Same with the rest of this shitshow of a civilization really. Monetized and gameified fake and gay facsimilies of life but it's just a hamsterwheel.
>>11659614>>11659822Legion was $600, but was considerably more complicated and with many more features than Keizer will have.
>>11659572>>11659850Speaking of Marusan/Marmit. Anyone know how many of a figure with a certain paintjob is usually made for either? I say since I know Y-MSF usually gives details that he makes 400 standard units of a figure and then 50 or less on the see through, mono colored, glow in the dark figures etc.
I made a easy 20k this year selling my old amine statues. Haven't even touched my old Joe's, turtles or kaiju stuff.
>>11659535I found titanus scylla and rodan this morning at target. I heard a few days ago they were supposed to get more monsterverse figures in on the 30th and sure enough they did. Also theres the tiny hedorah i got in the godzilla blind box recently photo bombing in the pic
>>11659614It's gonna be $530, and the horns will be super fragile. Calling it now.
>>11661668And the special color will have effect parts and be $700
>>11661904>Headless version, $600
Won a Ninja Akakage Agon the Beetle Monster.
>>11662019>Agon the Beetle MonsterNever heard of this little nigga in my life but he's pretty sick
>>11662022He's from a 1960's Toei Tokusatsu. Had some fun kaiju. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYBOm7lCvI0
>>11662028Figured he was from that Japanese Spiderman show where Spiderman pilots a sentai robot.
>>11662110Honestly, the way to tell 60's Toei stuff from the 70's, the designs aren't as busy.
Is there a King Ghidorah that would scale decently with Motu figures?Not like perfectly because Ghidorah is huge but enough that he would still look imposing.
>>11662019he cute
Man, ever since 4chinz was discovered to be 90% kikes it’s been dead as fuck. New hiya figure set dropped and not one of you absolute reddit niggers said anything.
>>11663422>New hiyaWe're all still waiting for the old hiyas to ship.
>>11663422Called no one care for lil bro kong and a mothra reissue.
>>11663422my previous hiya preorders were canceled so i am not sure why bother making new ones
>>11663422I love my Hiya stuff, but I can't afford anything right now. Did they do a Shin yet? I'll break my savings for a Hiya Shin.
>>11663422>Lil Kong with his fucked up size lore implications >Mothra reissue Just gimme Hiya Destoroyah already
It's amazing that the Monsterarts line has done Legion and Iris, but hasn't touched on Gyaos at all. Even if they did he'd probably be $100+ and unsuitable for army building.
>>11664907Yeah, I don't understand why they are going backwards on the Gamera films. If they do a Gyaos, I imagine it might be like Megaguirus and include smaller, pre-evolved Gyaos.
Is the new monsterarts Destoroyah out yet?
>>11665027Or a flock of little Gyaos, like Singular Point Rodan. I think that's one of the more fun accessories a MonsterArts figure has included.
>>11664907Better off hoping Hiya or Jada gets the Gamera license.
Why did no one post this?>MMS Godzilla 1966>MMS Posing Godzilla 1967>MMS Posing Godzilla 1992They will come out in June, it seems none of them will be exclusive to the Godzilla Store. I think the 1967 will have Minilla dragging on its tail
>>11665439Jada ain't doing shit
>>11665658It could be 67 Goji sleeping with Minilla playing hopscotch. Or the snow hibernation pose. Also, Ebirah re-release please?
>>11665658>Posing 1992 and 1967I could see 67 being him either sleeping or he holding Minilla during the snow storm, but 1992 Godzilla curious what pose would he be doing? Also this sadly means a standard 1967 Godzilla is likely going to also be a P-Bandai Exclusive just like how 1965 was (And is still not fucking out yet.)>1966 figure is actually being madeAnd for this I'm not sure what more than they can do besides give him the water damaged head. But the good news is this guy seems to be a standard release which honestly is a good thing since Ebirah was also a standard release.
>>11665658Soon... and called it he's gonna be the last thing to be freed from the 50th memorial box exclusivity
>>11665658>>11665901Waiting for my boy Kumonga to be made.
>>11665901>>11665907>Also this sadly means a standard 1967 Godzilla is likely going to also be a P-Bandai ExclusiveI can totally see them doing some 2 or 3 pack deal for Godzilla and Kumonga with possible freshly born Minilla which can be attached to Godzilla's tail as the Premium Bandai exclusive.
bbts just got all their Hiya Godzilla's in including 91 goji finally
>>11666767Yet I have no email about my preordered G2K or GMK...
>>11661275I will never understand buying an action figure that needs so many stands. You might as well buy a model at that point
>>11661275This piece of junk was $600??? Big yikes!
SHMA of this fucker when?
Been watching Godzilla with my gf, she has never seen any of them. We're up to Son of Godzilla and she's enjoying them very much. Theres hope bros
>>11668864Slap and grab her ass and go 'skreeeonk'.
>>11668858After Varan.
>>11668868
>>11668858After Dogora
Thoughts on Super7's Spacegodzilla(s)? I don't like most of their "godzillas", but I like the look of this guy. I also have their Meltdown G and Destoroyah and they're both p cool.
Is anything good coming for Godzilla 98/Zilla?
>>11669519Only one Super 7 figure I have is oddly enough the trendmaster color version since never really saw anyone else besides maybe Mondo who made a figure based on those colors.
>>11669570Would you recommend it? I was gonna say, I was bummed to have missed that colorway (literally had the toy it’s based on as a kid), but this new one seems nice too
>>11669716If you already have the Meltdown and the Destoroyah, then sure since you pretty much know what most Big Super 7 figures are basically. Your only real options for a Trendmaster color Spacegodzilla again is this or Mondo (and obviously the Trendmaster originals.) This one is think is the better option and cheaper option of the two options, least until we see a world where HIYA or SHMA does it.
>>11669570Shit taste
New email from Titanic Creations today teases they plan to do the Giant Claw this year. Yeah... Good luck selling that, man.
>>11670190I want all of their stuff but not until their shipping is normal.
>>11670165For what? Only having one Super 7 figure or not having more?
>>11670190That would be fucking amazing.
>>11670190I skipped their Pulgasari since they stylized it, but I love their Gorgo/Ogra and Yongary. If this is just a legit Giant Claw figure and not a "Titanic Creations Giant Claw," then this'll be an instant buy for me (well, assuming it looks good).
>>11670190>Yeah... Good luck selling that, man.My brother in christ, this is going to be my first Titanic Creations purchase.
It's uphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2e_KrwhWfs
>>11670159This and the Dark Horse Godzilla are the only Super7 repaints I've gotten.
>>11670476WHEN IS IT SHIPPING DAMMIT?!?
>>11670723Probably this month I would assume. After when Hiya dropped their video on GMK Godzilla was when people started getting their figures in droves.
>>11671023But gmk hasn't shipped?
>>11671136If you hadn't gotten GMK yet after seeing basically every American youtuber getting theirs, then you probably fucked up and chose the wrong shipper.
>>11670159>>11669519I love Space Godzilla, but always wished they'd get rid of the infected space pussy.
>>11671136>>11671187I have both G2K and GMK ordered through BBTS. I have not gotten shipping notification for either at this time.
>>11671519Yeah I don't order from BBTS and go to other places so can't really tell you if its strictly a them problem or what. My reasoning is because since I'm a old a fuck dude, I heard BBTS was basically a repurposed Clawmark Toys which for those who don't know those dudes suck ass who overpriced everything and had horrible shipping times.
This dropped last night. Trailer expected to drop as soon as February
>>11671528>Two blue lightsWe finally getting a film where there's two Godzilla's walking around? Would be funny it would be basically War of the Gargantua's where there's a Good Godzilla and a Evil one.
>>11671525Nah BBTS is a solid bet just with some caveats. Their prices are high and they are quite often lagged well behind the overseas retailers but it's super rare they don't deliver.
>>11671528>expected to drop as soon as FebruaryBased on??
>>11672665The wrinkles on his ass
Why is this the only Heisei Godzilla kaiju Monsterarts hasn't touched?
>>11673293dino goji and baby junior
>>11673293Mean what can you really do with a stationary plant besides its tentacles? I mean the thing barley moved as is (Likely because all the puppet budget went to final form.)
I just coughed up some phlegm and it shot across the room and hit one of my Kaiju figures.
>>11673733Which one?
>>11673323>neck>leaves>midpoint in the torso so it can lean forward>alternate peaceful/closed rose head>tendril shield accessoryShe's not THAT immobile. Really no worse than final form.
>>11673293It really is a shame Super7 shit that out. They should never be allowed to touch Godzilla ever again.
Glad I ordered the baby zilla and destroyah. Seems it sold out at places that had it normal priced
>>11673733
>>11669519I didn't get any of them, because I don't like the tail articulation and I already have the SHMA. Though I do kind of regret passing on the Trendmaster repaint.>>11674067It's kinda funny that they shit the bed so hard on those first 2 waves, and now the Godzilla Ultimates line is one of the few things they make that sells reliably well. At this point, I would not be surprised if the Godzilla IP is one of the only things keeping that company alive.
Monarch Legacy of the Monsters season 2 trailer ft. "Titan X"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTiLM5LDoEQ
>>11675189Well at least there's a pretense that it's about a monster, we'll see how long that lasts.
Do the recent Hiya Kong's have the same size head peg as the first GVK Kong?
>>11675435Can't say. I did see that the 2014 Godzilla and the 2014 atomic breath version had different head pegs for some reason so you can't switch heads if you wanted to. Which also means you can't use the atomic breath head on the original figure.
>>11675189I've lost interest in the monsterverse setup, and this makes me even more tired than I previously thought possible.
>>11666767Fuck. They're sold out of the 1991?
>>11675634>t. didn't preorderNew to Godzilla collecting?
>>11675755Yes, actually.
>>11675189Didn't this show suck complete ass cause of the weird lesbo teen angst drama? Weird how its getting another season I guess.
>>11675803Yeah don't sleep on pre-ordering anything you want. Good luck on ebay anon bro.
>>11675868It sucked for a lot more reasons than that. All modern media is garbage really. Toho Godzilla stuff aside I pretty much only watch stuff from between 1929-2010.
>>11675888Any other place to get it from aside BBTS then? Fuck scalper prices.

Best place to preorder/buy Hiya stuff to Canada for non-rape shipping prices?
>>11670190Today they're teasing Reptilicus. I might actually go for that one.
>>11676405I thought they already tried to get the license and Sony was asking for an insane sum?
my Godzilla's Gang/POPY Sofubi arrived today! In the end I decided to keep it as is, though I retouched some of its paintjob
>>11676846That's how it came in the mail
>>11676846Good job.
