The Terrors of Japan Rise Again with New Godzilla and Mothra Collectibles from PREVIEWS


Two terrors of Tokyo, Godzilla and Mothra, are coming to comic shops with exclusive new collectibles and apparel.  Available now for pre-order through the February issue of PREVIEWS, collectors can be reassured that they will get these exclusive items when they hit shelves in July 2014 by pre-ordering them now at their local comic shop.

 

 


 

Fans of the classic and new Godzilla films will flip for the exclusive TOHO 12” Series Godzilla Vinyl Figure (Item Code: FEB142259, SRP: $160.00). This Godzilla figure features the monster with his battle scar after fighting Mechagodzilla. The figure is based on the kaiju's appearance in Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S., standing 12 1/2" tall and measures 19 1/4" long.

 

 

 


 

If one monster isn’t enough, fans can also get the TOHO 12” Series Mothra Vinyl 1961 Figure (Item Code: FEB142249, SRP: $90.00). The 180-meter long Larva has been downsized to 12”, and has impeccable detail, from head to tail. Shiny eyes, gnarly teeth and bristled hair along its belly, truly re-create the look of the soon-to-be moth monster.

 

“These fantastic 12” vinyl figures were originally released in Japan, and have long been sought by collectors overseas at premium prices,” said Diamond Brand Manager, Jesse Morgan.  “Now, in collaboration with Bandai, Plex Co., Ltd., and X Plus Co., Ltd., Diamond Comic Distributors makes this fourth wave of releases available to North American retailers in an exclusive reproduction.  Previous waves have sold out long before ship date, so don’t delay ordering!”

 

 

 


 

In addition to the figures, comes a PREVIEWS Exclusive Godzilla and Mothra T-Shirt (Item Code: FEB142252, SRP:  $18.99). The red, short sleeve shirt features the dynamic duo in all-out attack mode.

All three collectibles are featured in the February PREVIEWS catalog on pages 476 and 477 and can be pre-ordered at your local comic book shop.

X-Plus Godzilla QC problems?

I've got a bad feeling these X-Plus Godzilla reissues may be inferior to the Japanese versions. The recent X-Plus Mechagodzilla reissue has QC problems that are consistent with aging molds...

Might have to wait for reviews on these costly vinyl figure reissues,
