UPDATE:We now have a new image, this time from Figure-Oh magazine. Kiryu will include a red-eyed berserk head, chest flaps that open to reveal the Absolute Zero Cannon, leg thrusters, and what looks to be an incredibly articulated tail! Thanks to our friends at The Daytime Ninja for the heads-up!
Did you think Bandai had really forgotten about the King of the Monsters, Godzilla? Worried about the state of the S.H. MonsterArts toyline? Not anymore! Among this month's crop of leaked Hobby Japan scans is this single image depicting the Millenium incarnation of MechaGodzilla, also known as Kiryu! Kiryu is in his first appearance from the 2002 film Godzilla Against MechaGodzilla and will be a standard release for September. This Godzilla-powered cyborg retails for 10,290 yen, standing 15.5 cm or just over six inches tall. We have no details on accessories and alternate pieces yet, but fans will be happy to know that unlike the Heisei MechaGodzilla and Garuda, Kiryu's weapons/jetpack is already included! More details and a confirmation of release from North American licensed importer Bluefin are inevitable, so stay tuned! SOURCE: 2chan

Neat. Still would rather have the Showa era Mechagodzilla though.
Millennium series Gigan though please?

He looks pretty cool. I like his shoulder cannons.

So.. they're releasing MechaGod with a Cannon Backpack? Wouldn't it have been cheaper just to release the backpack? Or are there more differences than I'm thinking there are.

wonder how it compares with the soul of chogokin. if it seems light-years ahead, then it will be upgrade time, till then, the only thing that looks marginally better is sculpt.

Well, of course Kiryu comes with his backpack. He wears it pretty much the entire time in both of his movies.
Beyond that, though: It's about time! I expect this to be a huge hit! Kiryu is a great design and a hugely popular meka daikaiju. Awesome.
