Do we really need two threads about this?

I apologize. Mods Please delete this thread or migrate it to the other one, whatever. The original thread deserves to stand.

I didn't think it would be in the Reiwa Era section. I'm sorry.

For those curious about how much emphasis Toho puts on marketing and licensing, take a look at the back over of the new Waxworks King Kong Escapes album. The licensing manager, creative manager and branding consultant are among the very small handful of people who get credited.

How often do you see people on the branding and licensing side get credited on products?

I'm still positive this panel is going to be all MERCHANDISE!!!!! news.

Regardless of how this panel goes, I hope Toho pulls out all of the stops for the 70th anniversary. In Japan and America I would love as much attention, hype, promotion, discussion, appreciation and etc of Godzilla. I'd love for the whole year to be an endless cycle of reflecting and appreciating the franchise up to that point and embracing what is to come. I hope that a huge merchandise push would be the tip of the iceberg.

Man, just imagine what would happen if Toho realized how much Disney/Marvel made with the ideas of Spider-man multiverses and came up with the idea of capitalizing on both successes of the MonsterVerse and the Shin-verse and decided to pit MonsterVerse Godzilla against Shin Godzilla.

:D

It’s crazy how much stuff is happening with Godzilla suddenly(GvK2… Monarch show) and what could potentially be happening as well(Toho movie?.. SPs2? etc).

It absolutely is weird but I never would have believed a brand spanking new 4K remaster of Gojira would begin in America before Japan so anything is possible.

Either we are being trolled or ....
One weird hint was heard on Twitter and the tweet deleted that something next year involving Jet Jaguar was planned.

Yeah, let's be careful what we say here until after the dust clears and everything settles.

Well... I never said there was an announcement.

But for real though... now that the panel is over. What is in store for Godzilla's upcoming 70th anniversary?

Lots and lots of... MERCHANDISE!! Hope you haven't gotten enough of Godzilla, King Ghidorah, Mechagodzilla, and Mothra! (Rodan gets the short end of the stick, though.)

The SP panel isn't until Saturday, while comic discussion's tomorrow.

Let's wait before going nuts.

Chris from the main site apparently will be posting updates on the TK twitter, they're there physically.

No dust to be cleared. There was no big announcement. At best there might still be some minor teases we haven't heard anything about yet.

Please don't tell me people are hyping up the GSP panel now.

Yeah next year they are going to focus on Megalon and Jet Jaguar. But we already kinda knew that.

Merchandise is one of the few things getting me through the community right now. Any new partnership or products announced?
