Last week, Tamashii Nations announced the release of the Godzilla: King of the Monsters – S.H. MonsterArts King Ghidorah Special Color Version. For its Japanese release, the figure is a Premium Bandai Web Exclusive. The figure is a re-release, and repaint, of the King Ghidorah that was released back in 2019. The figure has a new metallic gold color scheme from his final confrontation with Godzilla from the movie. King Ghidorah stands nearly 10″ tall, with a wingspan that measures over 23.5″ wide. The fully articulated figure will have full range of motion in the three necks and tails. Three Tamashii Stage pieces are included to act as stands for the wings and body.
At the time, there was no word on the figures release outside of Japan. However, fans can now pre-order at assorted retailers. The figure is priced about $230 (depending on retailer). Pre-orders are available at the links below.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters - S.H. MonsterArts King Ghidorah Special Color Version
I'm surprised they didn't do any extra effects pieces like some of the other special color editions did in the past. I didn't love this movie so I passed on this rendition and I already have 3 of the other Ghidorahs lol.
It's very pretty, but wish it had FX pieces or walking wings. Hope they release the paint variants of Rodan and Mothra.
I was lucky enough to get this figure at the retail price. Without any effect parts, or reviews that say they fixed the QC issues regarding the wings and tails coming off so easily this is an easy pass. Most Monsterarts figures are statues with moveable arms and tails. This is a statue that breaks apart when it moves.
It looks pretty good and I've yet to get a monsterarts King Ghidorah but considering all the hate I heard about this figure on initial release I'm thinking it may not be worth it.
This Ghidorah fig is..
Alright...
Like Goldie...
Not too bad. Not too good
Just right ;^)
Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Pass.

This is the worst figure I've ever purchased. It's a statue that can't even hold itself together.
