I Melted Down...

Weellll....

I could not help myself. I broke down... or should I say 'melted' down, and pre-ordered myself the San Diego Comicon Exclusive S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla [*Explosion].

I have been eyeing this for quite sometime since the photos were debuted. Initially I was disappointed because I was expecting the 'Burning' Godzilla that we've seen from the prototype images from early last year, however this "Explosion" Godzilla has since really grown on me and hell, I want it!

I won't say where I got it, or how much I paid - all I can say is that it's a little less than what people have been asking for - but I'm just happy enough that I can acquire this item. The S.H. MonsterArts line is the one line that I'd like to have complete (at least of their Godzilla figures), so one way or another I was going to ultimately get my hands on the Explosion Godzilla.

Like my other figures coming this summer, it will be waiting for me back in Guam when I get back in August. So expect a plethora of toy reviews throughout August!

MechaGodzilla's Finally In!

Well, after weeks of waiting, my X-Plus 25cm MechaGodzilla finally was delivered to my place in Guam!

However, there was an issue at the Post Office in which the figure was not there even though my tracking info says that it was. My uncle went in on Tuesday to pick it up, but it was not there. It was recorded that it got in last Saturday. But today it was set to be sent back to Japan, to Hobby Search. I admit, I was freaking out and expected the worst. Fortunately my cousin and uncle made it to the Post Office just in time to pick it up before they were able to ship it back to Japan. You won't believe how relieved (hey rhyme time!) I was.

So now the box is sitting in my room awaiting for me to open it up when I get back there in August! Also to make my day so much better, the S.H. MonsterArts King Ghidorah figure is up for pre-order on Amiami (for $91) and Hobby Search ($105) now! Check my previous post for more.

SH MonsterArts King Ghidorah Up For Preorder

Yep, Toyfreakz is now taking preorders for the S.H. MonsterArts King Ghidorah that is due to be out this September or October, depending where you are ordering it from. It's priced at $124.00, which is not a bad price in my opinion. I know all of you cheapskates out there are just raging!

However, I am going to wait till it pops up on Amiami. They're prices are much better in comparison in the past, so I can assume that King Ghidorah will be a few dollars cheaper there. For those who are just impatient and really want to assure yourselves that you'll be getting this figure, by all means, have at it!

I am hoping that preorders will pop up on Amiami, Hobby Search, and HobbyLink Japan sometime either tomorrow or this weekend. Whenever it'll be, I'll be ready to reserve my figure immediately!

UPDATE!


King Ghidorah is up for preorder at Hobby Search and Amiami now! It costs 7200 yen on Amiami, which is around $91.00 US! A LOT cheaper than what I was expecting. Of course I immediately placed my preorder.
