It makes me happy to see this thread eventually get some love. Yaaaaaay.

How good a price are the Seven or Ace? That either seems very low, or the vinyls you're looking at are kinda expensive.

I don't understand your hesitation to get the kaiju in Ultra-Act, but it's more a moot point because Gomora, Golza and Eleking are so expensive now, and Red King kinda sucks. Not getting Baltan II though?!?! The hell is wrong with you! GET HIM.

Ace is like $75. Seven is a bit more. The vinyls are about 20 apiece shipped. What is the best place to buy vinyls?

All of the Ultra-Act kaiju I see are super expensive. Hence the vinyls, but yeah, I should get Baltan as an Ultra-Act.

I have a hard time spending Ultra-Act money on toys. Well, my wife has a hard time with me spending it...

Alright, I just poked around HLJ.com, and I am never buying another vinyl off of eBay again... *headslap*

Anybody know of a good place for getting vinyls of the Kamen Rider kaijin (beyond waiting for them to pop up on ebay)? Vinyls of the Godzilla and Ultraman Kaiju- as well as the Rider hero figures- are comparatively pretty easy to find, although that could be due to having more recent releases.

I'll keep an eye out, although I don't know that I have ever seen a kaijin vinyl. Any one in particular you are looking for?

Mostly Kaijin from the first series, like this but in stock. Shocker grunts too- I've seen pics of a Figuarts version but no info on when it'll be released.

printer, no luck on any Kaijin yet, but I did just place an order with HLJ for some Ultra Kaiju -- Red King, Eleking, Melba, Gomora, and EX Tyrant. Going to have to wait on the to come back in stock but that's alright. Just happy to get a much better price on these guys.

Recently picked up Gubira (newer version), and now that I have him I really want some more 4-legged kaiju. Also, prior to having the figure in hand I never realized his pattern was so deliberately asymmetrical.

Gubira always makes me think of Zigra, by which I mean I tend to visualize them in my head as their swimming models rather than the actual suits. Gubira at least has the decency of being a quadroped, like you said, heh.

Scylla is a good four legged monster. I like his gigantic mouth, of course! Reminds me of Audrey II a little bit.

If the Neronga vinyl was on all fours, I'd probably buy him, but standing on his hind legs, he looks a little plain. Kemular is alright, but he needs an update.

Of course the best 4 legged daikaiju is Anguirus! I need to get one of the Bandai Anji's. The Final Wars one has a nice sculpt, but the colors seem a little... off. I dunno. I guess they match his colors in the movie, but the spines seem too bright for my tastes.

printer, I did see that Bandai is going to be evidently doing at least some Phantoms from Kamen Rider Wizard in vinyl.

I don't know who else we'll be getting though...

I received EX Tyrant in the mail, he's so boss. I'll try to take some pictures to share. I also ordered an Alien Metron who is sitting in my Private Warehouse at HLJ, waiting for me to ship. I am also going to also pick up King Joe, but that one will be for my friend who also is a tokusatsu fan who's name is (you guessed it) Joe.

After all these years I finally am amassing the small army of vinyl monsters I have always wanted. :D

While I'm more interested in the Showa riders and their foes, those are pretty tempting- and far cheaper than any potential Figuarts of them might be.

Out of curiosity, which EX Tyrant did you get? Is it the 2008 one or the newer red-eye one? I have the red-eye version, and although I'm fairly certain that they're the same mold from pictures the 2008 release looks to have a better paint job. I don't know if it's enough of a difference to warrant tracking down another version of the same mold- the red-eye version is still pretty nice.
