    Toho 30cm Series: Godzilla Earth /??30????? ??????? Sales Agent: PLEX Corporation Product Size: Height Approximately 32cm (12.6 Inches) Figure Material: PVC (Soft Vinyl) Specifications: Painted; Some Assembly Required Package: Closed Box Shipping: May 2018 General Distribution Version Price: ¥21,600 (Approximately $206.06 US, Tax Included) ? Set Contents Godzilla Body Godzilla Tail Shounen Ric Limited Edition Price: ¥21,600 Product Code: 411-P3AG05R ? Limited Edition Contents Godzilla Body Godzilla Tail Despair evolves... The latest addition to the Toho 30cm Series comes from the Godzilla anime feature film, GODZILLA: PLANET OF THE MONSTERS (GODZILLA ????, Gojira Kaijuu Wakusei, 2017). Dubbed "Godzilla Earth", this incarnation of the King of the Monsters appears at the climax of the movie, laying waste to the landing forces led by the human hero, Haruo Sakaki. Having grown and evolved over 20,000 years Godzilla Earth stands over 300 meters tall, making it -- by far -- the largest Godzilla in the movie series. X-Plus emphasizes the power of the anime Godzilla with a three-dimensional portrayal of the monster`s thick, muscular body and gigantic tail. The figure`s pose is based on the Japanese theatrical poster for the movie. The Shounen Ric website is offering an exclusive version of Godzilla Earth with an alternate paint scheme, featuring orange tones to reflect the monster`s onscreen appearance at sunset.

Limited Edition Contents Ultraman Great Light Up Display Stand Support Arm 2 LR44 Batteries Instruction Manual ~Eternal Hero~ Ultraman Great... Five years after X-Plus released Ultraman Powered, Ultraman G (Great) -- the other English language Ultraman -- is finally added to the Daikaiju Series! Great was the hero from the 1990 Ultraman series, known internationally as ULTRAMAN: TOWARDS THE FUTURE and in Japan as ULTRAMAN GREAT (?????????????, Urutoraman Gureeto). A co-production between Tsuburaya Productions and the South Australian Film Corporation, the show broke many traditions of the Ultraman franchise. It was the first Ultraman series produced in English, as well as the first based outside Japan. X-Plus` Ultraman Great is sculpted in the character`s classic Finger Beam attack pose. The figure is highlighted with pearl paint to replicate the unique glossy feeling of Great`s costume, which was made of fabric rather than the wetsuit material used for previous Ultramen. The Shounen Ric website is offering an exclusive version of Ultraman Great that comes with a display stand featuring a gimmick that illuminates the figure’s eyes and color timer, and change the color timer from solid green to blinking white. Two LR44 button batteries are included for testing the light-up feature.
