Welcome NECA Godzilla figure #10 to the world...was anybody reporting on this? I apologize if I missed it, but, I don't think anybody was reporting on this....but, there I was in Toys [backwards "R"] Us the other day, and this exists.
Is this a TRU exclusive? Who knows. All you need to know is, it's a repaint. To be precise, it's a repaint of NECA's excellent Godzilla 2001 figure, but more importantly, it is the polar opposite of their last repaint (NECA figure #8), the abomination known as "Reactor Glow Godzilla" (which you can see in this article).
How is it the opposite? Well, first of all, this is something that actually happened in a film. Moreover, they included an accessory that we didn't previously have, namely, the beam. If you are going to do a repaint--if you absolutely have to--then this is the way to do it.
He may be shipping with Shin Godzilla, because there was one of each figure on the shelf. I say this every time, but I sure hope this line continues.
Have you heard about the PS4 game in Japan called "Kyoei Toshi" (City Shrouded in Shadow)?
ReplyDelete"The objective of the game is to escape a city ravaged by battles between giant monsters, kaiju, robots, and heroes from famous live-action and animated Japanese series such as Godzilla, Ultraman, Gamera, Patlabor, and Neon Genesis Evangelion."

It is ranked #2 on the sales charts in Japan and is getting very positive reception from people in North America that have been able to play it.
No word yet about a North American release but speculation is because of character licensing issues.
I have read a LITTLE about this game, and seen some screen shots of a brochure on Tumblr..! It looks very interesting!
