Awesome, can't wait to see your review. From the looks of it, the fixed the wing problem. Also from reading about it, it's got a lot of die-cast so it might be one of the heaviest figures.
I'm so worried about getting King Ghidorah because of the wings and this review did'nt help (don't get me wrong I love Steven's reviews) I know that they have improved the wings but i'm still worried.
Honestly, Ghidorah is a mixed bag. The necks can be troublesome, and the wings are always an issue. Also, I firmly do not believe that the wings of Ghidorah have been fixed. There has only been one production run of King Ghidorah, and in order to "improve" the wings, Bandai would need to recall the ones on the market, start up production to create one new join for each wing, open each one recalled, disassemble the wings, and then sell them as "new." That does not fit Bandai's MO. At all.
So Steven, I'm sure that you've heard that SH Monsterarts is releasing Mecha King Ghidorah, are you going to be getting him? At some point I will probably pre-order him.
Charles Sugg Yes, Bandai will be shipping it sometime within the next few days, then at the end of the month to Bluefin for sale in the US. Got my preorder in at Amazon... and it's free for me!
If you're a fan? Yes. If you just want a big Ghidorah figure to tower over your others? Sure! But overall, get it if you like the character, not because you're filling out the roster.
Ohhh, tough choice. You like them both equally? Ghidorah is going for insane amounts on the aftermarket, so get him now or wait for a different era one to be made. You like Destoroyah more? Your choice. On a figure to figure comparison? Destoroyah is better made.
I love how the lighting makes the figure look like the Special Color Version
My favorite SH MonsterArts figure. The sculpt is mind blowing
Im getting this on Christmas
I love king ghidorah

other than junior I REALLY WANT GHIDORAH!!!! LUCKILY I FOUND ONE FOR 2$!!!
What
huh
can't wait to get this one, gonna wait a while tho, just got the Destroyah evolution set and now I need to save up for Biollante :]
do you think s.h. monsterarts will make a Ghidorah with mechanical parts? like in a movie a saw?
You mean Mecha-King Ghidorah? If so, maybe.
Austin Ames Maybe? ;D
LOL we'll just have to wait and see.
Yes, we'll... wait. :)
They have announced it! It'll be out on February of 2015! ;)! I'm excited!!!!
If you want more balance with the effect parts, you can pay extra money on getting stages that have the claw grips and all your troubles will be gone.
Are all sh monster arts figures hand made or are they sculpted bye machine
+That Dino guy No, Sakai makes the sculpt for the prototype and then it's cast for Mass production at factories
I am getting him
I think the movie monster ghidorah has a more accurate face if you look at it from the front

How? Also funny it’s 7 years later
Does Yuji Sakai only sculpt these figures or does he paint them as well?
Painting is done at the factory, so no.
If that's the case, then I guess there's something going on in the factory with painting these 2016 S.H. MonsterArts figures.
Would you recommend him Stephan?

Would you recommend him over destroyah?
