There was a time when I loved to collect Godzilla HG (High Grade) figures distributed by Bandai. These 3 inch figures were in plastic capsules with catalog inserts and sold through toy dispensing machines. Godzilla '74 was a part of the ninth Godzilla High Grade set.
In my previous review, I shared with you everything I knew about the Great Muta (Darth Vader) version. I guess that makes him Darth Muta? The cool part about Muta was that he wore a one piece hood and mask that looked similar to Darth Vader's helmet. However, beneath that hood was Muta's mask that looked similar to Darth Maul's head. Now that the entrance is removed, we will now look at the Darth Maul version of Great Muta!
Promotional images already surfaced regarding two new figures that will be released near the end of 2012 by Tamashii Nations.
Burning Godzilla will be released at the end of November 2012. This figure will borrow some features from the previous Heisei Godzilla, but with some other enhancements including wider bigger thighs and a bulkier figure. There will be two different types of maser tanks included as an accessories. This release seems to be a web exclusive, so get them when you have the chance. The market price will be around $92.

Godzilla Junior will be released at the end of December 2012. So far, there have been no photos of any accessories that could be included with this figure. Therefore, Godzilla Jr. currently seems to be on sell by himself. The retail price will be around $54 and seems to also be another web exclusive.

I normally post Transformers reviews on Sundays in a segment called "Saibaa Nichiyoobi," but for today I'll make an exception. Transformers Commemorative Series was a special exclusive series in Toys R Us that featured reissued classic G1 toys. Prowl was released in the fourth series along with Red Alert and Skywarp. I'd like to give a special thanks to my good friend WimpLo for this figure.
Today I want to do a quick, yet special review of San Diego Comic-Con's exclusive S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla (Comic-Con Explosion) figure. This figure could only be purchased in SDCC, although you can buy this figure on ebay. I was lucky enough to have my friend buy this for me at SDCC price. Here is what's inside the box.
I apologize for the lack of updates, because I've been feeling sick lately. I do have some stuff to post later, but I won't until I feel better. Until then, thanks for stopping by and take care!
Bumblebee is another figure that I picked up from Kawaii-Kon. These figures were selected at random, and when I found this guy, I didn't know what to make of it. However, I do take the time to give every toy a fair chance, by thoroughly analyzing the overall presentation. Here's what I observed....
A new trailer for the upcoming Rurouni Kenshin Movie has arrived! New scenes are shown displaying more of the featured characters (Yahiko finally shown!). Action scenes look intense and fluid. Personally I am looking forward to the Kenshin vs. Jin-eh and Kenshin vs. Saito fight. Also featuring the popular J-Rock band, One Ok Rock, with their new upcoming single "The Beginning", which was made specially for this film! Looking forward to August 25th, and looking forward to letting you readers know if this is a success or bust!
I'm back to reviewing Transformers again, and this time I'd like to finally start with one of a few figures I bought from Kawaii-Kon. What can I say about Megatron that hasn't been said already? Megatron, love him or hate him, is one of the driving forces behind Transformers' popularity. You just can't say Optimus Prime without mentioning Megatron. As a casual fan, I prefer G1 Transformers due to nostalgia. Therefore, this miniature piece seemed like a perfect find for me. Now then, on to the review!
