    Finally, although I can't imagine it'll be much different to the Yuji Sakai 2000 release? In any event it's pretty much my fave Godzilla suit.

    It's a lot different from the 2000 suit. Smaller head, properly colored fins that are also smaller, charcoal black skin tone, more rounded skin, etc.

    Oh yeah, that's right! Now's your time buddy, I can feel it!

    @Topic: It's a sweet suit, if the figure is easy to get for me I might consider it, if it's a Web-Exclusive though I'll just pass.

    Whether it is a web exclusive or not in Japan is irrelevant as Bluefin will just bring it out in the US regardless.

    Not all fans live in the U.S. tho, making it more expensive to import from North America compared to buying a general release item from Japan.

    Exactly. But you might as well talk to a wall here, it's not like this guy will stop assuming that everyone has access to Bluefin or something.

    I saw that comment coming from a mile away and added a "for me" just in case, didn't matter

    Well I guess to be fair I wouldn't know where everyone lives. Can't you order something from the US Amazon site and have it sent to wherever you live?

    And also in regards to everything getting a bluefin/US release, unless I'm missing something the Space Godzilla/Little Godzilla set isn't getting a US release at all.

    The Mothra set, the Battra set, and Godzilla Jr. were released through Bandai's US webshop. It was honestly so costly that it was the same or even cheaper to import the web exclusive of them. Not too miffed about Space Godzilla, I would've bought from Amazon on sale, but not spending $250 or whatever BBTS is charging.

    True, but I told him before. Multiple times.

    I can but ordering from Japan is cheaper regardless, even if I use a middleman service. And they usually declare a low value as well so I don't get hit with customs fees too often.

    Do you know how many people I talk to daily on forums? I don't pay attention to most of their user names. I didn't even know you had ever told me you didn't live in the US. Although, I'll remember now by the Samus avatar.

    No Kiryu reissue announced so far

    Anyways, the figure looks fantastic, but with the widespread QC-issues of this line, I'm going to wait until I've seen plenty of in-hand footage from different people.

    Yeah, but I'm still confident it'll happen soon-ish.

    On that note, that Godzilla against Mechagodzilla poster recreation is just fucking rad.

    Why does the neck look so long in some angles and perfectly fine in others? Well either way, HELL YEAH!!!!
