FW Gigans design was always awful. The figure would look better if his teeth didn't look so much like wooden plugs.

Everything about FW was awful. Except that Big G killed GINO

Well I liked the Rodan design a lot better than the 90s version, I'll give it that........and that's about it.

Of course, I'll always prefer the Showa Gigan design, but I thought the Final Wars version was a pretty cool looking update even though the movie sucked. The chainsaw hands were a little overboard.

I think the Monsterarts Gigan looks pretty sweet. The X-Plus one should be on its way to me pretty soon, as well.

But still didn't touch the 50's version imo

The 50s version is still the best. I don't know why they then "upgraded" to the google eyed version of later movies.

I don't know, but Godzilla got googily-eyed as well. Maybe if was what they were going for as the films got sillier.

Does anyone have photos of the GMK 30cm X-plus Godzilla?? What are your thoughts?? I am thinking of picking him up. I thought I might to get my top fav, G suits 62, 64 (ordered), 68, and the GMK. However I am not sure I am digging on the GMK 30cm version.

Thanks I advance.

PS - I ordered G 64 from Entertainment Earth and I have to say they have about the BEST customer service I have ever dealt with. They have really gone the extra mile for me in the past. Just passing that along.

I have a Xplus 25 cm GMK I'm thinking of letting go . I think I had him displayed for a couple days when I first got him. Then again I can't remember ,so he might be MISB. . I'm getting the 30cm even though the 25 cm is the better sculpt. Im staying with the 30cm's

Unfortunately, I've yet to see a GMK Godzilla FIGURE that really captures what I love about him. Either the pose is funky and the face is spot-on, or the face is wonky but has a great pose. Plus, every one has a roaring face. I think GMK Godzilla looked best with the closed mouth, grimace appearance. I'm still holding out. Maybe SHMA will hit another homerun.

 

[MaulFan]

Roaring sculpt seems to be fairly standard, I was surprised X-Plus went close mouth with G99.

 

[GodzillaSpawn]

Yes it is. I remember the Bandai vinyls growing up and everybody wanted the Godzilla '91 because it has a closed mouth.

 

[MaulFan]

Some look better roaring, other's closed mouth, some either way. Heisei Godzilla's look best either way, I like 64 closed mouth, 99 definitely roaring.

I agree with that list.

'54 looks better roaring. GMK looks better with the slight growl/grimmace with the angry brow (like when he's about to shoot his radioactive breath when he's annoying with the horns outside the grocery store).

Most 60's/70's designs look best with mouth closed. Even 62'....I like him with the mouth closed but where he's showing his teeth (if that makes sense).

I always like closed mouth sculpts on Godzilla. It's not often they do them so it's a treat when they do.

Entertainment Earth has been real good to work with.

 

[buzzybean]

I wish they would have kept the classic look of Godzilla's back fins for the new movie design. I don't really care for the random spikes look.

 

[Centurion]

Final Wars Gigan looked like a giant monster wearing Goth gear.

 

[wlvn]

Hey guys, any news on the Bandai Perfect Model?

 

[Boba Ben]

I came across this. Someone mentioned it on a facebook group I'm a part of. They think it might be the 2 foot tall Jakks Pacific Godzilla.

 

[Kuzeh]

Tail looks a bit weird…
And I guess the feet are final…that's the only part of the design I am not too crazy about...
