So far I have not been disappointed and have acquired 9-10 pieces.

My primary interest was in the "classic" Godzilla monsters, or Showa series, but I guess they are not coming now?? Can someone explain to me what "SHMA zero" would mean exactly? Does this mean no more articulation?

Hopefully we will get more concrete (and better) news at Toy Fair this February. Thanks and please excuse my ignorance

Yeah unfortunately SHMA Zero likely means a statue-type line, a la FiguartsZero. There might be some swappable parts, but that's the best you can hope for in a situation like that.

I can't remember if we've ever gotten MonsterArts news at ToyFair, but nothing MonsterArts-related (even more redecos or the talked-about Zero statues) was shown off at the Tamashii Nations show at the end of October, so I'm not anticipating anything new anytime soon after the Poster Color King Ghidorah.

Considering I've seen a few Garudas start to get listed lower than the previous 18000-20000 yen asking prices, maybe/hopefully some of the more expensive pieces will start coming down in price if the line is dead and people start checking out, so those that still want them can get them for cheaper.

And also, @Topic: HLJ is selling the SHMA Rebirth Godzilla on the Winter sale for 30 bucks. If I had any money left, I would get one

Interesting, I hadn't heard that chatter. Still seems weird to let '15 be such a whimper for the line. Hopefully the line does get going again though (and hopefully this "break" talk is a good sign the Ultra-Act line doesn't die either).

I didn't realize HLJ had that deal on Rebirth either; if I hadn't just shipped the only thing in my PW I might've tossed that in.
