Gigantic wooden Gidorah for only 23 G's!
All you SB Ballers get in there!

Quote:
A company called Morita Shouji [JP] is selling figures of Japanese super monsters Godzilla, Mothra and three-headed King Ghidorah that are a bit special for three reasons. They are hand-crafted, made of wood (unlike the plastic monsters used in the movies) and very expensive.

The company is selling the Godzilla and Mothra models for $3,000 and up, hoping that wealthy Japanese Godzilla fans can’t resist and buy all 20 of each of the wooden figures. But the price for the figure of mighty King Ghidorah really stands out: $23,000. The thing stands 260cm high and weighs 150kg.

Needless to say the figures are only available in Japan. But if you are a true hardcore Godzilla fan (and I know you’re out there) you can still try and email Morita Shouji and ask for exceptions (the email address and phone/fax numbers can be found here). I would be especially interested in the shipping quote.

I can see it now... Toho decides to bring back the Godzilla franchise with the amazing new "Godzilla vs. Mothra vs. King Ghidora vs. A Whole Mess of Termites"

I have seen these in person, they are amazing in detail that you cant see in that picture. If I had the cash and the space I would buy one in a heartbeat.

The wings look gorgeous! I wish I was rich and had a house with an inner courtyard that I could put this in!

If you were rich you could have a miniature version of tokyo built in the courtyard for the dioramic realisms!
