HAZAWA GUMI
Moss Green 1964 Godzilla. Wonder Festival exclusive. Price 4,830 yen. July 28, 2013 release with additional mail preorders. *The 75 Goji was from a early July sales also available at Wonder Fest.
Hey,
I collect 74-75 godzilla versions and since Hazawa Gumi has done a couple I needed to figure out a way to order them as well. The best way I found was to use a middle man service like Yokatta, basically. You email them and they let you know how much it would cost to purchase it etc. it is a bit pricey, but short or knowing someone in Japan it's always going to be expensive. Even if you have a friend in Japan order a figure you pay the figure price+shipping within Japan to your friend or intermediate buyer+shipping to you. The 75 figure has been issued twice, once black with purple accents and once black with orange accents. The orange was a July 1st special order limited to 25 figures. I already have both in hand and I used the inter buyer and things went really smoothly. I find that since I collect very specific versions of Godzilla that this is the best way to go, since there are not many things I go out of my way to get. I hope this helps.

Godzilla Vs Megalon was my first in 1976, Damn I'm old.

You can buy directly from them. But they do not ship internationally. You will need a proxy service or a friend in Japan.GFAN198423 wrote:Where can you buy the ZOKEI KOBO pieces besides Wonderfest?

Re: Japan New or Future Kaijū Toy Releases
The 2-head Gomora knock off named Gosura was originally released by Marusan in 1970. This came right after in a time when Marusan had filed for bankruptcy in 1969. It was more profitable for Marusan to create their own unique kaiju toys than pay a licensing fee to Tsuburaya by knocking off some familiar kaiju that some collectors may be able to identify with.monster zero wrote:What's up with the two-headed Gomora?

Re: Japan New or Future Kaijū Toy Releases
Sorry Jim, it's hard to make out all the kana and kanji. But I do not think it is suppose to be Hideaki Anno. Looks like a collaboration project between Bullmark, Bearmodel, and Frenzy since they are mentioned in the description.Jomei wrote:Kaiju no Mura, what's up with the human-ish Ultraman figure? That wouldn't be based on Hideaki Anno's film, would it...? I can't make out enough of the text.
Because no one really cares. But you're right it is a great release.BudmaVampiricKaiju wrote:I'm surpised no one mentioned the Wonderfest Ghostron, he's awesome! lol

Re: Japan New or Future Kaijū Toy Releases
Just wondering, what would be the odds of getting a Ultra Monster 500 Gomora, or any other of the back-ordered figures off of Ami Ami?

Re: Japan New or Future Kaijū Toy Releases
I want that Yamanaya Tarou.
It is a simple story. There is nothing that brings me happiness. Be it believing in others or them believe in me, it did not matter.
What others called happiness simply did not bring me joy.

Pete, I am not aware of any Bandai exclusives at the TCJ50 event. And the participating list of artist and companies for this event do not list Bandai.

Re: Japan New or Future Kaijū Toy Releases
I don't know if AmiAmi will actually restock them, but CSToys still has some in stock. Probably because their prices are worse, but well, at least there's an option.PopInPicsPresents wrote:Just wondering, what would be the odds of getting a Ultra Monster 500 Gomora, or any other of the back-ordered figures off of Ami Ami?
