 The most expensive Godzilla figure of all time.
 Jeweler Ginza Tanaka will be offering this solid 24KT gold Godzilla figure to celebrate the 60th anniversary next week. It weighs 33 pounds and will only run you about 1.5 million bucks. Ouch.

 Re: The most expensive Godzilla figure of all time.
Too bad, I wouldn't pay a penny more than $1.4M. I guess the price tag scares away the flippers.

 Re: The most expensive Godzilla figure of all time.
I tried to buy one but the guy wanted me to add 4% for paypal fees and the extra 60 GRAND was just slightly beyond my monthly budget.

 Re: The most expensive Godzilla figure of all time.
I'm gonna wait for the silver and gold marbled version to come out, since that's all the rage these days.

Just wait a few months till the hype is over, they'll be giving them away.

 Re: The most expensive Godzilla figure of all time.
As an expression of the intersection of the arts of toymaking and jewelry, that is pretty cool. Otherwise though, that only works as something that Toho could put in their boardroom or something! Gaudy! Also, insert some joke about Idolaters worshipping the Golden Calf Lizard.

 Re: The most expensive Godzilla figure of all time.
King Ghidorah too . . . . i can imagine some blinged-up rapper buying one of these and mounting it on the hood of their car.

This set is much smaller around 4 inches and only goes for 6 million yen (6 grand). The $1.5 million dollar Godzilla is 25 cm in height. Unfortunately no 25 cm Gold King Ghidorah.
