If Heddy had his red eyes, to stand out in all that shiny jet black, it'd be a real winner...Derpzilla wrote:Gotta say that Hedora looks good in black. I'd pick up a g62 but I already have a green one. Also black gloss is a dust magnet in my humble abode, as evidenced from my black mecha G XD
Also, april (think the end) the first lot of glow marusan figures should be coming out. Can't wait for my King Ghidorah preorder

Kind of wish Club Tokyo would update the Marusan and other non-bandai companies who made Ultra figures or kaiju figures. Didn't know which thread to complain about club tokyo in, sorry.
Imagine getting angry your out of date and obsolete stats for rubber suit monsters were 'stolen'.

Thread hasn't been updated in awhile.
Just preordered a Marusan figure today. The upcoming black variant of Marusan's B/O styled Godzilla figure. Been looking for one for ages but couldn't afford it. Just as well that I preorder an unpainted one I guess... it'll go better with my other two.

Yeah. It's a neat figure; just difficult to find a painted one.expandkong wrote:Id that a vinyl recreation of the remote controlled figure?Creature22 wrote:Thread hasn't been updated in awhile.

I reviewed the Medicom Vinyl Wars Godzilla 1962 on my latest Vlog starting at 16:25. Enjoy (despite the camera look being a tad off due to a crack in it)! Thanks for giving it a check.

I recently obtained the Vinyl Wars reissue of Rodan 1956 for a good price; I was lucky enough to just stumble across it on eBay.
I'd been kind of wanting this figure in my collection, but hadn't expected to find it like this. It's a gorgeous figure with impressive shelf presence.

Re: Marusan Vinyl Appreciation Thread
I'm down to my last two or three modern Marusan figures I need to complete my collection. If anybody has any spare stuff for sale, I'd love to find out what you've got.

Yep! That Rodan is easily one of the best of the whole Marusan line. I'm thankful of the Vinyl Wars reissue so more people could get ahold of one. Even owning the original, I still picked up a couple of the reissue... they're just so great looking!Rody wrote:I recently obtained the Vinyl Wars reissue of Rodan 1956 for a good price; I was lucky enough to just stumble across it on eBay.

Hi, I'm new member here. I am looking for a Marusan Kameba from 2005 to complete my three Space Amoeba monsters set. If anyone has one they would like to sell, or know of where I could get one, I would much appreciate it if you would let me know. Thanks!:)

Re: Marusan Vinyl Appreciation Thread
I’m glad that Marusan is releasing more vinyls again. I just wish they could sell all of them Internationally instead of some.

I'm finally going to have my 1st Marusan figure! I ordered the Mechagodzilla Godzilla Store exclusive one. I've always collected articulated figures but lately I've been fascinated in vinyl toys especially vintage kaiju ones.

Man, on the black background I thought it was double cast vinyl at first (gloss black underneath with clear glitter layer on top) which would’ve been AWESOME. But I see it’s just the clear glitter vinyl. Still cool, but could’ve been even cooler.

That Gigan would be a great Christmas/Winter Season gift. Super glittery and awesome!
I’m currently waiting for my TAG Hedorah. I have an order in, but they’re being released in limited batches each month.

If I could find it for relatively cheap I’d almost be tempted to get that Gigan and paint the inside gloss black myself. Almost.

Re: Marusan Vinyl Appreciation Thread
Well, lets revive this thread. Im getting big into Marusan and will be collecting quite a bit next year. I found a site that keeps pretty good track of new releases by them so Ill do my best to post here.
These were announced a few days ago
A little bit older, but I saw these on eBay and was shocked
Apparently there is a 450 Gigan. News to me

Re: Marusan Vinyl Appreciation Thread
My 1st Marusan is the lucky bag black glitter Gigan. I now have the Christmas green glitter Hedorah set, the purple glitter Gigan, the Limited Marsan Hedra Painted by Takashi Yoshizaka Silver Ver, the Limited MGⅡ450 Built-in Mecha Aurora Ver, the Limited Desugoji 350 Classic Blue Yellow Eyes Ver, and the Limited Biogoji 350 Platinum Sparkle.
The mini fig with my Desugoji 350 was the final form Destroyah, I was hoping for the aggregate. I got lucky with the mini fig with my Biogoji 350, it was the Biollante rose I wanted.
These were all from Godzilla store.
I'm good with the Marusans I now have. Unless the G-Store comes out with a special King Ghidorah figure.
p.s. I like GID figures, so I did get the GID Hedorah set too as a guilty pleasure. I wasn't crazy about the new Christmas red glitter Hedorah set, I'm glad I got the green.

Re: Marusan Vinyl Appreciation Thread
You should show some pictures if you can. You seem to have a good variety and I for one would love to see them.
Anyhow, this new 450 Gigan was just announced on Marusan's instagram. Looks pretty cool
