I agree; I've been picking up a lot of standard size toys recently.

I'm not sure what to call the 12" Shikaruna Koubo Chiwos. "Plus" size, perhaps?

Why would the Japanese be interested in larger figures except only to export to the big fat US? Space is a premium over there, yes?
Yes. Add to that the fact that we've consistently been paying $20-$40 for Bullmark-style mini-sized kaiju for a few years now. They're not likely to get any bigger.

I prefer 5"-10" sizes.

(Why are we talking about what "sizes" we prefer?) :)

Cause we suck and have nothing better to do but argue and complain and be pretentious. It's......the way of a toy collector. Oh, and we like to post "+1" and " :shock: " and "meh" a lot.



















:shock:

Like my dealer said up thread, standard or 9" is best.

I recently received a wave of stuff from S7 that included a pair of the Biskup Mechs.
I love them, colour and size and all, but I can't imagine owning/buying a fleet of figures at this size.

They look great towering over a herd of six inch figures.

But I don't need a herd of SUPER-SIZED figures...

If you prefer more girth, I would recommend (according to others) the Damn.

Newbies? I would recommend the mini Damn.

Next question.

Why even worry about standard JP size?
I'm sure China will produce any other size you desire.

Just send them specifications and a sketch on a napkin. :wink:

Spinal Tap "Stonehenge" style!


I like big toys, I like STUPID big toys. I'm not saying "stop making minis and fight figures" but there are so many and, I feel, so few LARGE figures. So I'm just pushing to get some more big ass MONSTERS say............10" and up. And keep up the good work on minis, micros, fight and all that too.

You got to listen to the whole sentence. "5 inches is OK" but 38" is BEST!

It's not the size of your kaiju, it how you use it.
