S.H.MonsterArts Hedorah revealed!
1 Attachment(s)
It's "Godzilla Day" today and Tamashii Nations is celebrating with the first new classic Godzilla monster figure in years - Hedorah the Smog Monster! The movie this classic monster spawned from, "Godzilla vs. Hedorah" is also celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
More info on the figure will follow soon. https://mobile.twitter.com/t_feature...54368599220229 http://www.tokunation.com/attachment...1&d=1635915805 |
This is neat.
Probably not gonna be worth the asking price considering how little it can do beyond some arm articulation, but it's neat nonetheless |

What I find is cute that Hedorah of all things has a special logo for its 50th anniversary. Maybe its more popular than I thought? I do remember that the director of the movie was very proud of it and wanted to make new movies with Hedorah until he died. I bet he would've loved seeing this. |
Might have to make a brief return to the line for this.

It is interesting that Toho would devote so much energy and merch to celebrating a film that Tomoyuki Tanaka himself had claimed "ruined Godzilla", but it looks like it's going to be a thing moving forward. They also revealed the logo for next year's anniversary Kaiju during the livestream: Gigan.

Hedorah is super popular among Godzilla fans and vinyl collectors. It's a popularity That is somewhat ironic, for all the reasons mentioned above.
I definitely find the design endearing and it's a perfect fit for the Godzilla universe. An SHF is totally different market, but I guarantee this thing will fetch insane prices in the after market. |

The SHMA line has finally give us Showa stuff after milking the VS movies (80s-90s Heisei movies).

Oh hey! It's the monster that horrified me as a kid! (Don't worry, I'm better now. It's like we're old friends!)
Also great to see SHMA dabbling into Showa monsters, since they're so criminally underrated. But as great as this is, I'm afraid it's too rich for my blood, so I'll stick with the Sofubi figures, especially since Hedorah's looks great either way. |

The "Hedorah 50th Anniversary Special Set" will go up for pre-order tomorrow, November 26th in Japan. A Web-Exclusive release in June 2022, this set costs 19800? and includes:
- Hedorah (Growth stage) - Hedorah (Flight stage) - Hedorah (Underwater life) - Hedorah (Perfect stage) as well as a set of stands for the Flight and Underwater forms. https://p-bandai.jp/item/item-100016...996.1637826177 https://www.tokunation.com/attachmen...1&d=1637827677 |
Pricey but you're getting all the Hedorah forms in one set along with stands to display them. Not bad for a one stop shop.

It's too big to be included as an accessory and would need to be articulated. https://i.imgur.com/NvG3Ukd.jpg @Topic: It's pricey but seeing what's included... that works out for me. |
