Godzilla Collectibles Thread

Once the Godzilla geeks saw it...I think the limited screen time if the main star and mixed reviews turned a lot of the latecomers away.

Watching it right now with my son.





I swear that they wanted to evoke a Mothra vibe with the flying Muto.



Sorry for the very low light pics.

Just a less vibrant, beautiful and spiritual version lol

The flying MUTO worked out great, a number of moments evoking Rodan or Mothra while still being quite unique, when it dives into San Francisco Bay you can really see the stealth fighter influence in the wing design.

Don't get me wrong, the Heisei and Millennium series have some cool suits, I just mean that somehow shots of them make them look very much like suits vs earlier films.

Here's what I mean, look at the evolution of visual quality from '84 on, '84 and '89 have a grittyness to the lighting and the buildings and the overall atmosphere in the frame, but from '92, things are really brightly lit, in ways that clearly come from studio lighting, building almost look perfect, too clean for the real world, I don't know what happened but something got lost along the way.

Damn, I need 84 in my collection.

 

[Boba Ben]

The X-Plus reissue should be up for order soon, hopefully.

 

[jye4ever]

I meant the movie.

 

[Boba Ben]

Oh yeah. I wonder if it'll ever be released on blu-ray.

 

[MaulFan]

Perhaps next year, it's been 30 years since U.S. release, whatever legal issues tied to those rights and holding up U.S. release can't possibly last much longer than that, I can't believe Toho would give up rights forever that would cost them to go against. Maybe we'll see it to coincide with the new film's release.

 

[Boba Ben]

I wouldn't mind having everything on blu-ray and the original Japanese version of King Kong vs. Godzilla too. Between blu-ray and dvd I have just about everything other than 84, though.

I got the japanese version of Son of Godzilla from monster mania a couple weeks ago so I officially have the entire collection. Picked up Frankenstein conquers the world and varan the unbelievable and watched them for the first time. My Toho collection is something serious.

b-day comin up plottin on first x-plus. LOVE the hokkaido but the 1989 diamond reissue is cool and so much cheaper.

 

[GodzillaSpawn]

Yeah that's it...when it comes to accuracy and detail keep in mind you will get what you pay for. The standard 89 is one of my least favorites. The 91 is one of the best Godzilla vinyls ever made.

look awesome! I'm glad I'm not the only one in here that buys the monster arts figs. Seems like everyone mostly collects resin kits, etc.

Any other monsterarts you'd recommend?
