                        Latest Godzilla kit from Billiken Shokai
                        Posted by J-Hulk on Friday, January 30, 2004 10:20 AM
                        Exciting news for me and the three other Godzilla modelers here at FSM: Billiken Shokai just released (Jan. 20) a fine 30cm rendition of the Big G as he appeared in Destroy All Monsters (and several films after that). It comes unassembled but pre-painted (just the eyes, claws, teeth, mouth, and fins), and looks just like G from the flicks. The kit's going for 6,800 yen (about $64 US) here in Japan.
                        Check it out!



                        *Edit* Just posted this over at the Figures forum, where it really belongs!
                        Godzilla just transcends so many categories, forgot where to put him...Wink [;)]

                        Very nice looking Godzilla. I would like to see some smashed buildings along with that mean looking Godzilla.

                        Yup, nothing complements a G more than rubble!
                        I just picked up the kit today (the pic above is from Billiken's site).
                        Looks good!

                        13b20, he's loveable, alright!
                        This version of the Big G would be about 143cm tall in 1/35 scale. A rough calculation indicates that to be about 4 1/2 feet tall.
                        At 28.5cm, this model is 1/175 scale.

                        That would be awsome sight to see a 1/35th scale Godzilla.
