HYPOTHETICAL TOY LINE: Godzilla X Transformers: Kaiju in Disguise

Post by Mac Daddy MM »

The only way I'd actually buy any Transformers merch. Talked to a few others and the answers usually vary. So if there would be a Transformers line, would you support it? Only buy a Godzilla? How would you display them, in kaiju or robot mode? And what would you want to see in the line? I'd easily support the line, but I'm not 100% sure how I'd display them. I think Godzilla as Optimus Prime would be pretty cool, but not sure who would be the line's Megatron. Gigan would be Starscream for sure.

I'm guessing you're young enough not to know about Trendmasters' cancelled entries in this area - the "Mega Mutations" assortment:

I'm more than aware of it. I'm the guy that conducted the interview and got those pics for TK.

First you buy a King Joe STORAGE Custom figure the same day I got one in the mail, now you make a Transformers thread the same day I buy an Autobot

You're scaring me MM

Now to answer your questions:
-Would I support the line? If at least a couple of the toys look good, have little-to-no QC issues and aren't super expensive, then yes.
-Would I only buy Godzilla? No, I need variety.
-How would I display them? Good question, probably which ever mode looks more appealing as a whole.
-What would I like to see in the line? Literally anything kaiju related, doesn't have to be Godzilla, doesn't even have to be TOHO. I'd personally prefer a lot of Deluxe Class and Voyager Class figures to bring the prices down and keep them within the 5-7 inch scale that we're already use to with a lot of monster toys.

Admittedly, i'm not that big into Beast Wars, but what you're suggesting sounds very similar and i'm all for it, simply because it's Godzilla (and co.)

These aren't anything like what MM is talking about.
