    That Gomez and King Ghidorah would make a killer set together with the similar orange, yellow and green colors.

    ^^ Damn, that King Ghidorah looks even better in that vid.
    I suspect it would be tricky to display, but who cares . . . .

    Display it you say? I want to take outside and fly around with it. :D

    Such a subtle yet effective spray.

    Gorgeous!

    @chimply.kaiju - Thank you for posting the videos, Anthony. It feels like a QVC show, but the most interesting one I have ever seen.

    I have passed on all the new "Ghost" releases so far, but I don't think I will be able to miss this '62 King Kong vs Godzilla "iceberg goji" tribute version. Argh...

    Yeah thanks to @chimply.kaiju that video of the milky head Ultraseven sold me on bidding on one. I actually won a auction uncontested for once and around retail!

    There's nothing quite like the feeling on finding and winning an auction for an item you missed recently and the price is only like 10% more than original retail. Total reversal of fortune.

    Speaking of Ultraseven, does anyone know a full list of variants that have been re-released by Marusan and Bullmark since these resissues started?

    I'd love to get a comprehensive list of Ultraseven and Ultraman 350 & 450 going. Today for example I saw a Ultraseven showa reissue that was all gray except for the armor around the neck whch was red. Never even knew that existed! I mean hell for all I know there could be a GID Ultraseven I've missed (but I don't think I have). If a GID version comes out I will definitely buy that. I'm sure it's in the works.

    For reissue Ultraseven this is what I can think of off the top of my head:

    Bullmark Removable Mask Ultraseven (8/17)
    Bullmark or Marusan? Middle sized Ultraseven (new sculpt) Silver Armor/head
    Bullmark or Marusan? Middle sized Ultraseven (new sculpt) Metallic Black
    Bullmark or Marusan? 350 sized Ultraseven Normal colors
    Bullmark or Marusan? 350 sized Ultraseven Silver armor/head
    Bullmark or Marusan? 350 sized Ultraseven Metallic Black

    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Normal colors
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Red Head
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Blue Body
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Silver Armor/head
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 White Armor
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Grey body/ Red Armor
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Milky White Head
    Marusan Ultraseven 450 Metallic Black (9/17)

    @spacemonkey66 looks great can't wait to get mine. Did you order direct from Bullmark through a proxy service or did you win one on YJA? Or had a friend get one at the event? I only ask because or ordered this and the Glow Zazahn direct through Bullmark (in early July) with a proxy service and they (proxy) are telling me nothing will come till the end of the month probably. Yet I see these everywhere so I'm confused.

    @Lixx yes, I used my usual proxy service (M World). I don't understand how some figures arrive earlier than others. I'm still waiting on a Marusan 450 Giant Gorilla which I pre-ordered months ago! Yet a board member already received it a few weeks ago! a mystery!

    I believe they also did a Ultraseven 450 for the Metarica series but can't find the photo anymore also this months dark version which is probably the Metallic Black on your list.

    I got mine earlier because I ordered through Marusan's International order page which usually has 1 or 2 items on it. The main white page with this months Ghidorah, Godzilla etc can't be international because of licensing issues and therefore are suited for the 3rd-party buyers.

    Hmm interesting. I just shot the service I used for these (Zen Market) a message to inquire. I wonder if maybe M-World didn't have some on hand through the event that these debuted at, and the rest were to be made through a pre -order and sent out in late August? And rather than ship twice Bullmark is holding the glow Zazahn? All I know is I see both everywhere, so I'm just assuming they're both out- definitely the glow Zazahn is out.

    LOL, this is probably a lot like getting vinyl records these days. I often do pre-orders for those but the factories obviously handle the big runs first before all these little 100-300 record runs so the wait is long.

    @spacemonkey66 so forgot to ask- how does the mask fit over the head? Easy or takes some twisting?

    That Booska matcha looks delicious. I hope it's not an event exclusive and just a pre-order.

    Delicious, indeed. ;) @Vombie - heads up, you might be interested in this green tea kaiju...

    Also, I noticed that Marusan has now put the playset towers and oil/gas tanks on perpetual monthly preorder for anybody who wants them. Very cool!

    I got towers and gas tanks on the way lol. All I need are fake trees.Wow I had only seen the Booska not the Hedorahs. Great sets. Lots of green showing up lately and it's my absolute favourite color.

    Anyone know the difference between the two Hedorah's? One just looks lighter, maybe painted GID?

    I asked about the difference's in the Hedorah and the translation is a little loose but essentially: They both represent Matcha, the most popular flavor for candy in Japan. The one on the right, that seems lighter, is green on transparent vinyl and is supposed to resemble a Matcha ice cone treat.

    At long last, the 62-version Classic Godzilla 450's I pre-ordered over nine :!: months ago finally arrived. Below is #32 on glow vinyl:

    [​IMG]

    Since I am certifiable such a great customer, Marusan also included a giant glow vinyl Tokyo Tower, which pairs up nicely. Also, in my endless quest for Shōwa-era color variants, I also ordered #12 (gray vinyl), #13 (blue/green vinyl), #22 (blue/green vinyl), and #27 (black vinyl):

    [​IMG]

    I am enjoying the color variations on these, especially the one with metallic green sprays and yellow eyes/gold teeth. I wish I could have seen all sixty-two versions up close at the Marusan Toy Festival.
