New Godzilla, Gigan, and Spider-Man Sofubi from PREVIEWS

MEDICOM Toy Corporation rolls out another line of Sofubi with three new Godzilla Vinyl Wars (GVW) Figures and an exclusive Spider-Man soft vinyl figure available for fans to pre-order from the September PREVIEWS catalog. These imported exclusives are scheduled to release in comic book specialty shops in January and February 2015. Godzilla Vinyl Wars is a collaboration between Japan's classic Sofubi manufacturers and cutting-edge toy maker MEDICOM Toy. Each release in GVW is a reproduction of a classic Toho Sofubi from the '60s through today, released legitimately for Western collectors for the first time ever. The 1962 KKVG Sofubi was influenced by his appearance in King Kong vs. Godzilla, great for fans who remember the classic film. Also considered by Kajiu fans to be one of the best representations of GIGAN ever, comes the 11” tall GIAGAN Sofubi for western collectors to treasure. Also available and styled after Godzilla's appearance in Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla is the 9” tall, newer and truer green Godzilla Vinyl Wars 1974 Godzilla Sofubi.
