I’ve been meaning to do this for a while, and I figured there was no time like the present!
Many, if not most, of us Godzilla fans, myself included, are avid collectors of DVD’s, toys, posters, and other kaiju memorabilia. In this thread, I offer you all a place to share info and pictures of your latest purchases, whether they be a little trinket you found at a hobby shop, an awesome score from eBay, or a massive haul from a convention! Whatever you have just added to your collection, if its kaiju related, share it here!
I’m ALWAYS adding stuff to my collection, so you can count on me sharing my latest purchases here when I have the time to share, and I invite you all to do the same!
Let the bragging sharing commence! :D

^... no freaking way. O_O Does it have any of its tenticles or... any paint on it? :} If its in good condition, all I can say is... SOMEONE doesn't know what they are selling! XD

On another note, I just got a HUGE Amazon box today, and DANG, WAS IT FILLED WITH GOODIES!!!!!!!! DVD's of The Giant Behemoth and Attack of the 50 Ft. Woman, the DST Hunchback of Notre Dame figure, and... the X-Plus Tyranosaurus Rex from the original 1933 King Kong!!!!!!!! HE'S GLORIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D He was a lot bigger than I thought... I was seriously geeking out when I took him out of the Amazon box! I have yet to get him out of his actual box and assembled, but... I already lurve him! :-}

The Biollante is in pretty good condition. It is a bid, so it rose to 54 bucks, but it is still a sweet deal. Here is the listing: BIOLLANTE!!
I actually really want that T-rex X-plus figure. I saw a picture of him and he looks fantastic!! Is he a 30 cm or 25 cm or just 6 inches?
I forgot to ask if it was the grey color version of the X-plus T-rex or the one with a white-ish shading on its belly.
Its the gray version (B&W the way he was MEANT to be!), and I wanna say he's 25 CM. I'm not an X-Plus collector (WAY too expensive for me...), so I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. But this guy was DIRT cheap ($32 or there abouts on Amazon right now!), and I adore the original Kong creatures, so I couldn't pass it up!
Now I just need that Kong...

Oh, I personally like the grey version better. X-plus is my #1 favorite Godzilla toy company, so I am really willing to pick this sick (Sick as in aweome) figure up!! Do you think 42 dollars is a good price because I saw one on Ebay.
^Dude, no need when you can follow my handy link and get it for 10 bucks cheaper off of Amazon!

Ha, I forgot that you left a link early. Looks like I am color-blind. Anyway, thanks! I might be getting him after Christmas, maybe in Feburary or something. That is a SWEEEEEEEET deal! Thanks!
^No problem, man! :)
Man, USPS tracking is srewing with me. At long last, my preordered Y-MSF Gaira figure shipped on Monday. The tracking said it was supposed to be here yesterday... NADA. -_- If its not here tomorrow, I will shed a manly tear.

Wait, is the Y-MSF Gaira figure for preorder still or did it already sold out? I was considering to buy that figure.

On a related note... STILL NO GAIRA IN MY MAILBOX!!!!!!!!
"Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible." -Rod Serling
Okay, thanks. I didn't noticed that you posted that comment on the 19th.
Its alright man, I've had those situations before. I remember when Series 2 for the PR line came out, I pre-ordered Leatherback in June. When series 2 got released, I was expecting for my package to be sent, but it wasn't.
Fast forward a bit to October. I forgot about the figure and so I checked Ebay and guess what? The seller messaged me that there was a problem so he was going to barely ship it.
I followed his word and waited another month since it came from a distant area. I check Ebay again and the seller messages me again and says another problem occured, so he needs to ship it again. Obviously I was aggravated and so I cancelled it.
Wow... that profoundly sucks. Thats a horror story right there! Mine is no where near that horrible! XD

It was a horrible disaster, the worst situation in my life (other than when I got kicked in the face, one of my pet cats escaped, when I got kicked in the private area and when I stepped in the shower with super hot water that almost burned me alive). At the end of the day, I did felt bad for the seller, but I also felt stupid that I let myself wait like for half a year and instead should've gotten it on a comic shop.
Yeah... but stuff like that will happen. Such is the risk we collectors run. Don't beat yourself up. :)
My shipping info has FINALLY... FINALLY updated on my Y-MSF Gaira. He should be here tomorrow. He was supposed to be here last thursday. All I can say is... ITS ABOUT TIME!!!!!!!! :D
Also, Christmas is nigh, and I know I'm getting some kaiju goodies in a few days!!!!
"Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible." -Rod Serling
Yeah, that is definitely true. Good to know that your Gaira figure is soon coming! Even more kaiju goodies? Man are you in a Godzilla shopping spree!
HAHA! XD Yeah, I have a problem...
I actually did just win a DIRT CHEAP Spike Jaw Baby Godzilla 1998... one of the ones that hatches from an egg!
And... *drumroll*... GAIRA IS HERE!!!!!!!! :D I like 'em! THe paint on the face isn't perfect, and he has one HELL of a wonky right arm (meant to catch Sanda's arm to replicate their fight), but he's otherwise really awesome! I have the Gargantua Brothers in 6 inch form, together at last! :'}
"Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible." -Rod Serling
Yeah... that arm can be distracting. He's getting a Type B figure in a while with normal arms, and I kinda wish I had waited for that, but I still like him! :)
