This guy was so close to perfection He needs a beam effect part, and accessories that allow more playability with Biollante. The impaled hand is a great example.
Looks absolutely gorgeous. I'm still mildly annoyed we didn't get any accessories for the price tag, but I can't stay mad given how good the sculpt and paint looks
" at $95 folk are really questioning if they should pick this up " Me saving up to get the Godzilla Earth 2018 release that's almost $300: damn only $95? Then of course I remembered that $95 is a lot for a figure lol
With Godzilla vs King Ghidorah being the first Godzilla movie I watched I'm super nostalgic for this design. This one and final wars are probably my two favorite Godzilla designs. Can't wait to pick up one of these :)
I can't wait for mine to come. Pre-ordered it a while ago. I have the Neca Bio Goji but he has some QC issues.( Still love it though) This Bio Goji will go perfect with Biollante SPC that I got a couple of months ago. Bio Goji is my favorite Heisei design besides 93.
@@man222 they made Godzilla 1994 and tamashi also made a repaint of the sh MonsterArts burning Godzilla mold that's green and blue to give off the look of the poster for Godzilla versus mechagodzilla 2
Amazing looking figure. I have it on pre-order and I'm happy to say I won't be canceling mine. I love that this figure combines the more modern MA Godzilla articulation with the limited movement of the original figure. Not only does it place emphasis on the limited movement capabilities synonymous with the BioGoji suit, but it's a great little tribute for the 10th anniversary of the line's beginning with the original Godzilla 1994 figure. Looking forward to this one.
What a great looking figure! I might pick him up but I'm still hoping for them to re-release the k kyokou version so he can scale with my neca Kong for stop motion haha
Great review, figure looks gorgeous. I am probably going to skip this one, at least for now, mainly because I have the deluxe 89 that came out in 2017 and I feel like I don't need another one. In addition, I am personally looking forward to the other releases like the reissue of Gigan 2004, Final Goji, Ultima and SP Jet Jaguar. Who knows though, maybe I'll pick this up in the future because it is a nice release
This admittedly looks nice, but I found the 1995 Birth version on a trip to America in 2017 and even then I didn't have to pay for it, so I've been fine never getting another S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla since they're so pricey here in the UK, that one's the only one I'll ever need.
I know this is now a month out from the review, but just got an email from BBTS that they got their stock in and mine shipped today. After this review, im excited for this guy, just hope he doesn't crumble apart like my 2001 heat ray, lol.
Here's something for you big nerds like myself. Godzilla's height in 1984/85 and Godzilla vs Biollante is 80 meters. In Godzilla vs King Ghidorah he grows to 100 meters and stays that height for the rest of the Heisei series. When put next to the Godzilla 1995 release it scales really really well I think.
Kinda. The ‘94 figure is still the best in terms of scaling with other Heisei figures. Super MechaG, SpaceG, and Destoroyah are all 120m tall kaijus, and if you’d put the ‘94 figure with the other Heisei SHMA big kaijus he’d scale excellentyl.
I bought and pre-ordered mine on Amazon the 12th of October, and received it in the mail on Halloween. I'm pleased with mine that I got, but the only thing I was curious for is the slight loose piece in the center of the tail, but it's not too lose. It does stay in place as I adjust it, yet feels like it wouldn't stay still forever, but overall I'm pleased with mine. I couldn't afford the one that made sounds, and lights up on the spines, so I settled with this one. I'm really hoping that they'll make the 84/85 incarnation I so long want that one to be a reality.
Just got this bad boy today, no accessories is a shame, but I feel like the qualitiy control on mine is fairly consistent, eyes are symmetrical (FINALLY), joints are solid nothing falling apart, good articulations and the paint is nice too.
I think you should buy 2021 he’ll rise in value and get scalped like G19 who is currently selling for obscene prices. 1989 should go on sale probably, though don’t quote me on that.
One thing is sure i will probably pick this guy over G21 And FW Im still a bit pissed that again no b e a m Idk if this can work but I'm gonna try to put my neca godzilla atomic breath with a stand to look good
I ordered mine in may on bbts and it still hasn’t arrived, but i can already tell this is gonna look AMAZING for my collection. October 20th 2021, and mine is arriving late, was worried till i heard its being shipped.
Hmmm I get the feeling a customizer will heat up his bottom jaw and straighten it out. As someone who uses a hairdryer on stubborn plastic I think thats the best choice of action. Then put it in a freezer or a cold air vent.
I know. A similar situation to NECA Shin Godzilla, not the open mouth version. To fix the jaw issue I heated up the piece with a blow dryer then molded how I wanted it then let it sit in an ice bath for 10 seconds. Not perfect but way better. I’ll probably do the same thing for this guy.
Mine just arrived, but mine has a loose tail and swivels so much that it turns upside down for no reason but it’s fine, the paint looks kinda faded though
If its price was around 75 bucks, yes, it would be a great deal, but lacking any accessories, well then the best thing would be to wait until you can get it on sale. I hope that super 7 does not take even longer to show us its proposal, I need to look at other alternatives besides Bandai.
I love this figure but from day one it’s had a really loose joint in the tail and just recently pops out way too easily, any tips on how to possibly fix it?
I'm still waiting for mine I'm hoping mines eyes are straight if the teeth paint is a bit sloppy meh that's fine just as long as the eyes are ok... but man I've been waiting for this release since I started collecting 2 years ago now...
Question....What are the chances of Bandi re-releasing another accessories pack with tanks, X-2, ect? I missed out on the original and $150-200 for it is ridiculous.
For the price they really should have included an accessory. Even just a spare pair of hands would have been nice, just something! But I mean like… I’m still buying it
I forgot to get a picture of it, but there is a Y.S. stamp on one foot signifying Yuji Sakai sculpted this! Very interesting....
Really? Mind blown
love this godzilla figure
Is Sh monster arts heisei godzilla birth version ever restocking in big bad toy store?
Now we can do a proper figure fight between the shmonsterarts vs neca bio goji
So Steve you know what to do. Pls do a figure fight between neca bio goji and shmonsterarts no pressure tho 🙏

I just got mine and I broke down because how great this Godzilla looks and feels
Sooo... when is the figure fight?
My mom just got me this for Christmas Eve!
Though I do really like this figure I skipped out on em to get the SP Goji and Zinogre. Enough Heisei figures for me to use another with Biollante.

Symmetry is hard for me yet this guy is perfectly balanced
As all things should be.
I was expecting it to be a bit bigger in all honestly,..
I can only buy one should I buy the 2021 or the 1989?
I think you should buy 2021 he’ll rise in value and get scalped like G19 who is currently selling for obscene prices.
1989 should go on sale probably, though don’t quote me on that.
@@Pioneer5118 ok
I get to much nostalgia from this design to not pick up this figure lol
My only problem with it is that the tail on mine falls off at the base really easily but otherwise this figure is great!
One thing is sure i will probably pick this guy over G21 And FW
Im still a bit pissed that again no b e a m
Idk if this can work but I'm gonna try to put my neca godzilla atomic breath with a stand to look good

When is the Figure Fight?
He looks fantastic. I am definitely going to get this Godzilla figure.
I'll be getting him for my stop motion videos I might get back into and face him with my 2002 goji
An absolutely gorgeous release and it’s my favorite goji
Thank You This Helped Me, I Got sh monsterarts 1989 Godzilla And I Love Him
I plan on eventually getting this, but my main focuses are the Final Wars Gigan reissue with all the effect parts and the SP Godzilla Ultima.
He looks excellent!
This is now my definitive Heisei Godzilla figure.
Unless Tamashii announces a 1991 figure at some point later down the line, lmao.
Oh boy, i got news for you...
Yuuuus my favorite Heisei design from one of my favorite Heisei movie, sucks he doesn't have accessories though
Just got this for Christmas 2021, my first SHMA
Super excited I pre-ordered, this is my second SH.
Hmmm I get the feeling a customizer will heat up his bottom jaw and straighten it out. As someone who uses a hairdryer on stubborn plastic I think thats the best choice of action. Then put it in a freezer or a cold air vent.
There's nothing to straighten out beyond moving the joint.
@@StevensToyReviews I mean the jaw itself. Its on a ball joint so it should come off easily.
For having to pay 110 dollars (Damn you JP Shipping) the figure is beautiful, one of my favorite Godzilla designs of all!
BBTS pushed my preorder back to October on Biogoji, regardless I can’t wait to have it next to the og release 94 Godzilla and Burning Godzilla
They aren't symmetrical on the suit itself though
I want a heisei goji but I'm kinda torn because I don't like the bio goji design. And the other ones definitely have their prices😬
It been 5 year since the last time kkk Godzilla 1989 i remember first time i got him so very happy
I can’t wait till the figure fight between the Neca and this
Lovely figure but I do have some paint applications that are kinda off...especially the toes.
No matter how nice the rest of the figure is, I just can’t get over the jaw, I just hate it.
I know. A similar situation to NECA Shin Godzilla, not the open mouth version. To fix the jaw issue I heated up the piece with a blow dryer then molded how I wanted it then let it sit in an ice bath for 10 seconds. Not perfect but way better. I’ll probably do the same thing for this guy.

I love your videos and your reviews
I got this figure can’t wait
If it came with a beam effect...this would have been perfect. But...if this figure cost 70 bucks then I would settle without with no beam effect.
If its price was around 75 bucks, yes, it would be a great deal, but lacking any accessories, well then the best thing would be to wait until you can get it on sale. I hope that super 7 does not take even longer to show us its proposal, I need to look at other alternatives besides Bandai.
Idk which to choose, that or shma shin goji night comare ver
He looks great but if you already have the OG Monsterarts 94' Godzilla is Bio Goji different enough to warrant a purchase?
Imho no. I also have the Noriyosho Ohrai fig.
Only if you're a suit purist. If I were to grab one heisei representation of Godzilla from this line I'd literally get only this.
I love this figure but from day one it’s had a really loose joint in the tail and just recently pops out way too easily, any tips on how to possibly fix it?
It looks good!
I'm getting this bad boy for Christmas
I love your videos
I got Mine And It was 94.99$ On amazon. And Great Review :)
I hope we get an SH MonsterArts Godzilla 1993
I really need to ask my parents to pre order this on Amazon, but sadly if they disagree I guess I'll get the NECA version of it on Amazon.
I'm thinking about what to buy between S.H Monster Arts 1989 Gojira and 2004 Gojira. You pick one.
Just pick the version you like more
Both are amazing tbh
The only problem with Final wars is that you can see through it theres some type of cracks that let you see through the figure
95 dollars but no effect parts. Feelsbadman
This figure is amazing I'm so glad they made this figure did you get it from BBTS or Japan realese
I’m going to open it just see if anything is wrong with him than take pics and put him back in his box.🤗
I love this figure but damn anytime I move anything the joint falls off lol plus the jaw is kinda weird. Anyone know how to fix it?
Mine can move its hand closer to the chest but the torso cant move. One of its dorsal plate bend, do anyone know how to fix it?
I think they should've made it all grey I would like to paint it myself
I'm still waiting for mine I'm hoping mines eyes are straight if the teeth paint is a bit sloppy meh that's fine just as long as the eyes are ok... but man I've been waiting for this release since I started collecting 2 years ago now...
Did you get it through Bigbadtoystore? My 2 orders are still in pre-order status.
Damn. Maybe I should pick this guy up. Maybe if I got enough left over after the pc
I like it but mine Godzilla 1989 arm falls of and the rest but they are easy to put Pabco on maybe because it is new idk
So about this figure fight tho steven 👀👀👀
Haz un versus contra el de neca
If this figure was a better price like 60$, it would be a must buy, but 90$, why would you get this over the neca.
@Adolf Hitler surprising words Mr. Hitler
Better than Expected but yeah the Price is....meh....
Nice Review tho!^^
Would love to See this figure vs the Neca Bio Goji👀
If they decided to do another Heisei Godzilla, then I feel like they should really do a proper 1994 figure. The original release just looks bad imo
I think he looks fine or at least mine does, I wish they would do 93 instead.
Whys that?
Mine don't have the eye problem.
Question steven will we see a rematch for biogoji NECA vs S.H.Monsterarts?
Today for 🎄Christmas 2021 I have bio goji but Im a kid
I hope Godzilla 1991 will release in the future
‘89 and ‘91 are almost exactly the same suit tho?
It won't, this is your 91 placeholder. They're almost exactly the same suit outside of a thicker neck and builder proportions.
Is the beam at 0:24 one of those eBay customs?
Nope! Just repaint from the accessory set.
So is the original 1994 release the only official way to get the blue heisei style beam?
@@Akuma07 yes unfortunately unless you repaint one.
2:42 1)- that is scary
2)- those teeth. yikes.
3)- I think the eyes are symmetrical, but it's hard to tell with that lighting.
Note sure how to give a clearer view ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@StevensToyReviews It's fine. it's mainly a problem with the light reflecting off the eyes.
