SHIN GODZILLA 4TH FORM DEFOREAL (GIGANTIC SERIES) - RIC-BOY EXCLUSIVE
I bought the Gigantic Deforeal Shin because he's ugly, and that's about it. I love this hideous light-up meatball of death, and I want more of the same.
I was fortunate enough to get the RIC version of the Large Monster Series Godzilla 2021 release. This statue is different from the previous one I posted because the mouth and dorsal plates light up (Referred to as the RIC BOY or RIC version). Since the 2021 release is from Godzilla vs. Kong, you know that the light-up one is the one to get since Godzilla blasts almost everything in the movie. Finding the right time in the evening to take pictures of him to get the most out of the light-up feature proved difficult, but it worked.
Unfortunately, I don't have a Gigantic Shin Godzilla to take pictures of. The latest round of Shin-Mania is upon us, thanks to the latest Gigantic reissue by X-Plus (I did preorder this time!). However, I do have the Sakai Shin Godzilla, which I still love.
My Gamera 1999 V2 has arrived courtesy of Awesome Collector. I thought I was done buying Gamera items after the Prime 1 DX statue, but I couldn't resist getting my hand on this one. He just looks too good! The last shot is of the Gamera 3 X-Plus I have, including the old one that used to be sold on a card (it's pretty old. Tower Records used to sell them).
GODZILLA 1998 (DEFOREAL SERIES) - RIC-BOY NIGHT COLOR EXCLUSIVE
I'm not a fan of this iteration of Godzilla, but I need something to represent it in my collection, and this repaint release works for me. However, I couldn't bear to take shots of this thing, so I had my assistant take photos for me.
VARAN 1958, POSTER VERSION (DEFOREAL SERIES) - RIC-BOY EXCLUSIVE
I didn't expect a Saturday delivery, but I'm not complaining. This Varan Deforeal is almost perfect. I say almost because there's this air-bubble inside of his horn. Anyway, I dig this line, and I might buy the RIC of the first release that comes with the idol.
