MemberBaragonOct-24-2014 9:28 AMHowdy, folks!
As most of us know, Bandai America has been releasing (and re-releasing, and re-re-releasing, and re-re-re-releasing, and re-re-re-re-releasing…) various Godzilla vinyl figures for over a decade now, and although some collectors don’t like them, you have to admit… being able to walk into your local Toys R Us and finding quality figures of various Godzilla’s, Mechagodzilla’s, and other monsters, like King Caesar, GMK King Ghidorah, and Rainbow Mothra is pretty freaking awesome!
But for the last few years, Bandai’s Creation line has been in a rut. With re-releases out the wazoo, and incredible figures like King Caesar that NO ONE is buying, the line has been pretty stagnant for a long while now. But that is (hopefully) about to change…
Bandai America has, as of late, began to reach out to the fan community to see what we want from the line. After months of preparation and logistics to be worked out, and with the assistance of Toho Kingdom, a pole has just gone live asking the fans to speak up!
I’ll let Toho Kingdom’s Chris Mirjahangir explain the proceedings…
Since many of you are huge fans of the Bandai creations Godzilla line, we're going to help them out by holding a couple of polls to help decide what next years releases should be!
Poll #1 What re-releases of past monsters would you like to see?
Poll #2 What NEW monster would you like to see? ONLY monsters that were in Godzilla movies here everyone. NO requests for Sanda, Gaira, Zone Fighter etc.
Email your choices here: GodzillaBandaiPoll@hotmail.com and just leave your answers to polls #1 and #2 and that's it. NO long, drawn out emails with paragraphs to slog through. When emailing your choice, specify what size. 12 inch or 6 inch. Or both! Happy voting everyone!
Pretty cool, eh? Personally, I recommended a new Megalon, and Anguirus 1955 (A PROTOTYPE THAT THEY MADE EXISTS! THEY COULD DO THIS VERY EASILY!), and either or both MUTO’s, since no one else seems to be making them.
If you have the time, follow the link and shoot them an email! From what I hear, Bandai America is genuinely interested in what the fans want, and are doing this to see what the community wants from this series! So there’s a good chance that what you vote for, should it be a trend with other voters, will get made eventually!
So what did you/will you vote for? Let your voice be heard by Bandai and in the comments below!
ROCK THE VOTE!

MemberMothra LarvaeOct-24-2014 5:05 PMWe need to see a cheaper Biollante figure already. I don't want to bust $600 for the SH Monsterarts one.

MemberMothra LarvaeOct-24-2014 5:54 PMI just emailed 'em.
Let's hope they like Orga!

MemberMothra LarvaeOct-24-2014 6:13 PMUh, there's no such thing as a "FemGoji," unless it's some kind of fan-made monster.

You just reminded me, I should have mentioned the Millennian in my email.
Dang. -_-
And I forgot Varan too. One of my top 5 favorite monsters, and I forgot him. Oh well, hopefully enough people pick up my slack. :) I think the MUTO's should be made next year, for sure. Heaven knows there's enough of a demand for them! Lets make it happen, people!

The suit from Son of Godzilla is called MusukoGoji. Musuko translates to the word "son".
The King of the Monsters
MemberMothra LarvaeOct-25-2014 11:12 AMYes, the name of the suit is MusukoGoji, and it is still just the normal male Godzilla. Minilla was adopted by Godzilla and Godzilla is and alwaysn has been explicitly referred to as male by Toho.

MemberBaragonOct-25-2014 11:23 AM^Case closed. :)
There has never been, nor will there ever be, ANYTHING called Femgoji. The 1967 suit from Son of Godzilla is called Musukogoji, derived from the Japanese title of the film Kaiju-to no Kessen: Gojira no Musko.
Now back to Bandai America.

MemberBaragonOct-25-2014 4:44 PMBy the way, here is that Anguirus 1955 figure:
This bad boy has been sitting at Bandai HQ unproduced for over a decade, along with that Mecha-King Ghidorah. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A 6 IN. VINYL OF THIS SUIT!!!!!!!! Its something Bandai America could EASILY produce anytime they wanted!
If you are interested, the more votes for this one, the better!!!!
