Hey found some chibi Godzilla things today at TRU, I'm wondering what they are from?
I was hoping there was a Rodan but there wasn't but It has Destroyah, was wondering thanks. They had a main set of 6, 2 packs, then singles. |

What they're from? Uhh, Bandai America? I don't know what you're asking. Godzilla toys have had a long tradition of chibi and superdeformed characters, it's just that the US gets its own shot at them right now. We're also going to get some for the 2014 movie next year. The six you saw are the only ones available now.

I'm confused by the question too. They're not really "from" anything. They're just chibi figures of Godzilla characters. I myself haven't seen them in-person, just the photos from Toy Fair. How much are they going for? I remember the Mothra figure looking nice. Would be tempting if I ever saw them.

It's odd that they didn't put Rodan in the set it's and odd choice, I wondered if they were "from" a certain movie ar something since they seem to be random picked monsters.
I understand how to read the box and know what chibi figures are. |

The choices aren't all that odd, it's Bandai selecting five of the most popular and well-known Godzilla monsters in the West, using the better-known Heisei versions for the applicable monsters, then producing them with Godzilla himself as chibi figures. There's no reason they have to be "from" something considering Bandai America's varying choices of 6" vinyl sculpts, the entirely made-up Fusion variants, or the Tokyo Vinyl figures.
