They’re doing an incredible job imo, maybe lacking a bit in articulation but overall amazing. Just waiting for a 2021 mecha Godzilla to be announced and more toho stuff.
@@MrMoistIITheRevengeOfTheMoist I’m excited to see how they get better at articulation. I think they’re gonna knock it out if the park. I haven’t heard anything about mecha Godzilla but I hope they do that!
@@CepiTheNomad Nice and if I don’t win I’ll still have so much time to get the figure looks a lot better than monsterarts idk where monsterarts got orange on her face from
I agree that this won't kill Monsterarts. However I just sold my SHMA 2019 Godzilla, Mothra and Rodan and my 2021 Godzilla and I don't regret it. I have Hiya's first 2021 Godzilla, I have the updated version pre-ordered from Entertainment Earth along with a new Mothra and the new fireborn Rodan from BBTS. I am all in with Hiya when it comes to the Monsterverse. But as long as Monsterarts is doing Showa era figures I'm sure they'll be fine. I have their Gigan, he's nice (over priced though) I want '72 Goji but that price is intimidating. Also I know people are excited for Jet Jaguar, but $100 is asking way too much in my opinion. Also the joints on my SHMA Monsterverse figures were SO stiff and that plastic is so ridged I was afraid of breaking them if I moved the shoulder or the thighs, or Rodan's wings. They're supposed to have great range of movement in their articulation but I could never get them to reach their fully intended potential. Hiya figures are so much nicer to handle.
I completely agree. I love their showa and Heisei figures, but I think Hiya has the edge. I want that too and I might get it to review but yeah that’s a lot lol
In my opinion this is the best MonsterVerse figure for the 2019/2021 Godzilla design. Admittedly when the first Hiya 2021 figure came out, I thought the sculpt looked great but I thought it was slightly overrated but as time went on, I grew to love it more but the updated version does blow the original Hiya 2021 out of the water though.
@CepiTheNomad I'm hoping for an updated 2021 Kong because, to be honest, the original Hiya 2021 Kong is the only MonsterVerse figure I don't like. The detail just doesn't look great compared to the Sh Monsterarts and the articulation isn't that good in my opinion.
@@andrewsouthworth9730 Yeah I agree, I will be reviewing that one soon but I gotta say, in person it is better than the promo pics and I'm starting to like it. But the 2017 looks better for sure
I just got my 2019 version and it's AMAZING, if you don't count the 2 main qc issues, 1:The paint for the mouth spills over to his right side jaw, and 2: his tail has 2 articulated joints that are literally so stiff they can't move, and the rest is sadly kinda lose so I can't just use a hairdryer to fix them
If you’re still looking for a sturdy stand for Godzilla in a swimming pose, I recommend checking out the storm collectibles clear stand. The claw(s) is spring loaded and very heavy duty! I think you can buy them packs. You’ll need to use at least two of them for a hiya Godzilla but they will absolutely hold one up!
Epic figure! Hiya should get The licenses for Rayharryhausen And make something like the Rhedosaurus And gawangi. Also would be cool If hiya made a Methuselah figure From the 2019 Film that would be cool, And the other Titans. Also the new empire Figures from hiya will Be really epic
Absolute awsome figures, hiya is cooking! But my major issue is the head articulation, I like my figures to be able to have a nice range of movement in the head so they can look up, down, L/R, this figure has the ability to do that but not to my liking, but I’m sure hiya will improve over time and once they do, having W movie accuracy, quality, quantity of figures, articulation, etc. they will be the #1 monsterverse figure line.
@@CepiTheNomad Yeah, I'm really hoping it'll open the doors for them to dig back into the Showa-era (With a pit stop for one of my favorite designs - the '84. 😁)
If you had to pick one, like only having one Godzilla in display alongside Ghidorah, would you choose this version or the new pre evolved one?i'm debating between those two... Nice video by the way!:D
Hmm that’s a tough choice since I haven’t gotten my hands on the pre evolved yet, but from the pictures (minus a few nitpicks) the pre evolved paint job looks a step above. And thanks!
@@CepiTheNomad Finally purchased the 2021, but i'm planning to buy Shimu in the future so i'll get the evolved version of Goji to pair it with him. Regular Godzilla with Ghidorah and suck in your gut Godzilla with Shimu. Best of both worlds :D
@@EricBilson Nice! That sounds like a good way to do it. I hope you enjoy your figures. I'm excited to get my hands on the evolved Godzilla, even though I don't absolutely love the design.
@@CepiTheNomad I know what you mean, but at least the mold is different. I like the claws, the pink tone and the spines (I don't know if they are translucent like the previous blue Ray version though...) Thanks again for your time, i will look for your future videos!
Also will be cool To see shows figures As well Like Godzilla 55 Angurius 55 54 62 64 Gorosaurus Gigan Rodan And others Also Kong 1933 And Kong 2005 Licenses
Everywhere I’ve looked so far is sold out, but maybe try the hiya toys website. If not there it could be on kowkis or entertainment earth but it might be sold out there too. There’s a chance they can restock though

Yeah it’s a significantly better sculpt, it’s awesome that Hiya goes out there way to update figures.

(2:21) Ur not the only one who cares abt the roof of the mouth, I do too and it’s amazing how hiya put that into their figs since others rlly don’t 💀💀

Hey thanks! That’s a huge help
I got him in 2023 December and now he’s my fav goji figure of all time
Will you do a side by side review with the original and gravity beam Ghidorah?? Super excited to see it out of the box!
Yeah by the time I get to the original version the new gold version will be out so might as well do a comparison review haha
Epic figure!
Hiya should get
The licenses for
Rayharryhausen
And make something like the
Rhedosaurus
And gawangi.
Also would be cool
If hiya made a
Methuselah figure
From the 2019
Film that would be cool,
And the other Titans.
Also the new empire
Figures from hiya will
Be really epic
All great choices! I hope they do the new empire figures. And I 2005 Kong would be amazing.

Question where did you get that hiya toys g21
Everywhere I’ve looked so far is sold out, but maybe try the hiya toys website. If not there it could be on kowkis or entertainment earth but it might be sold out there too.
There’s a chance they can restock though
I checked kowkis they have only 1 left but it’s already have been sold hiya toys website is sold out I didn’t check for the last one
I checked for entertainment earth and THEY DO HAVE ONE it will come back in april 2024
And will you review other hiya toys?
