Mondo Godzilla Collectibles

Which is why I refuse to buy any mondo products.

Not trying to start another debate about what’s fair, reasonable, entitlement, or any of that stuff. Just stating that I personally strongly dislike Mondo’s sales practices with their Godzilla figures. I dislike it so much that it’s soured me on the entire company to the point I refuse to buy or support any of their other products either.

I don't like their 48-hour preorder windows for their figures, either. Seems like you're getting people to buy your stuff because they're afraid they'll miss out above any other reason.

Mondo is going the Hype-beast route in terms of release. It’s a nasty practice that so many businesses are doing now that all of us collectors, regardless of interest have fallen prey too.

Overpriced limited preorder windows plagued by scalpers and those starved for the product. Knowing damn well the resell on the conveniently sold out release will instantly triple. Thereby making them more money on the next product due to fear of not receiving one.

With Godzilla Mondo stuff if you don’t get it on that day and a couple hours if not minutes when it goes live you are SOL because the quantities are very limited.

True dat. When I bought my 1984 "Imperial variant" IIRC it sold out within six minutes, maybe less. I refreshed my screen near the top of the hour until the order window came up, immediately placed by order, and by the time the product page refreshed post-order, they were already sold out!

I don't like it either but they have some cool stuff and they aren't the only ones with that type of sales practices. Seems like everyone is doing the limited quantities crap and using FOMO but again it is what it is now days which sucks.

I have to admit, as much as I love this guy I wish we got the one teased at designer con instead. I much prefer those colors

A post on youtube stated a new colorway of Biollante will drop this Tuesday, I think it may be the non-glitter lighter green designer con version mentioned above.

That is definitely what it seems to be. If so, count me in.

It's been confirmed on their Twitter. Best of luck!

I just bought this beauty


And I was able to IMMEDAITELY sell my other Mondo bio, and to someone in the same state no less. Super exciting. This is the one I always wanted anyways, and I really thought that maybe it didn't make the cut for some reason. Super glad they decided to release it.

Now I just gotta get the Midnight Bloom version. Thankfully I do have someone who got one for me, just gotta find the cash to pay him with. But before that obviously I got a figure to buy from SpaceG92 thats my main priority.

Wow, the new biollante is already shipping and, apparently, is coming tomorrow. That was lightning fast. Makes me wonder if this one was supposed to be released with all of the others but wasn't for some reason.

[Executive Hamster]

Its been a long time coming

Mondo just up up its pre-orders for Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (1991) and Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla (2002) Vinyl Soundtracks Exclusives. They look awesome!

Trendmasters Spacegodzilla Inbound on Tuesday 03/21

[StardustGenius]

That's awesome. Outside my usual hobby budget for single items, but awesome nonetheless.

(March 21st at 12pm CT), we're releasing the second colorway of our SpaceGodzilla Soft Vinyl ... the Trendy Variant.

$150. Limited Edition of 250. Expected to ship to US and Canada in July 2023. Payment plans available.

Wow!!! The SpaceGodzilla Soft Vinyl - Trendy Variant sold out in about 8 minutes! I got my pre-order in. I believe the SpaceGodzilla normal colorway lasted a couple of hours before it sold out, but it was a larger run. I guess the popularity of the colorway and size of run determines speed of sellout.

"Trendy" variant? Can they not say "Trendmasters" or at the very least "Godzilla Wars"? Not that it really matters, but I'm curious.

I really wish more Spacegodzilla figures would use that color scheme though. Gorgeous as it is, $150 and an 8-minute window to nab it... I'll stick with the Trendmasters 10" Spacegodzilla. That big boy's one of Trendmasters' very best.

Whenever Super7 gets around to making Spacegodzilla, a Trendmasters colourway seems like a no-brainer!

Yeah I agree as much as I love the color scheme I don't need to spend nearly $200 on this. I was upset at first when I missed out but almost glad I did as it would have been a FOMO purchase.

They jokingly referred to it as the Trendy variant but ultimately said it was inspired by the Noriyoshi Ohrai poster for Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla
