I got MOTUC Modulok yesterday and he is one of the top 5 action figures I have owned in my life. There isn't a category he doesn't excel in. If you're on the fence at all, snag one before they are long out of production and going for $500 on the secondary market. Because that day is inevitable, given how fast he sold out and how great it would be to have multiples.

You know what figure I'd like to see get a Legends update? Spider-Carnage. I think it's a cool design. It's the Ben Reilly Spider-Man costume, but terrifying. And to date we've only ever gotten 2 figures of it, and one of them is a minimate.   Like don't get me wrong, I have this figure and I like it, but it's pretty sub-standard by modern articulation standards (even though I still like the sculpt quite a bit) and the paintjob really relies on the whole "translucent plastic" gimmick to the point that it just looks like a black and dark-red figure, where the comic design is a lot more vibrant and eye-catching. I think a new ML version would be pretty sweet.

I'm not in love with the awkward shoulder articulation, but I'm thrilled with it otherwise, and consider it a more than worthy replacement. The McFarlane Spidey was too tall and gangly for me, and it had those ugly spherical thigh joints Toy Biz loved using, so I prefer that the ASM 2 Spidey is shorter compared to other characters like Cap.

Some new Godzilla toy info, some of Bandai's offerings: http://www.godzilla-movies.com/news/1570 I'll be interested to see how that 10" atomic roar figure turns out.

Ok, I understand why these are so goddamn expensive. BECAUSE THEY loving OWN! Holy poo poo, the articulation on the ones I picked up today are insane. The detail levels are loving all over on such a small scale figure. Backing up... I picked up the Bandai Tamashii Godzilla Millenium & Mecha-Godzilla.   Godzilla himself is a little stiff but the tail is super-articulated and realistic to the movies, can bend it to match anything from the movie. The head sculpt is amazing and the eyes have a nice gloss to em so it looks fairly real. Mecha-Godzilla tho... HOLY gently caress! This is the king of 6" figures. His chest opens up, little flaps on the sides of his legs open up. He has 2 different heads, the shoulder mounted rockets can attach along with missiles for his hands too. The tail is also super articulated and bends all over. These are as close to perfect figures that we'll ever get. Thankfully I got em for 50% off as my comic-book store near work has way too much poo poo so they need to offload this stuff, even BRAND NEW THINGS - so I paid $140 for these 2. I wish I had more money to throw as he had the full size Destroyah for $100 after discount, a baby Godzilla (the 90s version), Fire Rodan, Godzilla Jr (who was TINY), the Destroyah mutations and Moguera. gently caress. I wish they had the old 70s version but it was nowhere to be seen (the store is a giant loving mess with boxes EVERYWHERE, floors, shelves, etc). It's such a pain to look for things but they have just about anything. Front of store:  Example of the aisles:

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. They truly have everything - I think these guys order every comic toy. That isn't even close to half the store. I should ask if I can take a movie because it's literally EVERY LINE OF FIGURES EVER. https://www.facebook.com/ComicsAmerica

See if you can contact em - I am willing to bet they would be open to offers and shipping out figures with how much poo poo they have. See if they have what you're looking for. I've seen a ton of the SH Figure arts of various lines (today I noticed a shitton of Kamen Rider ones).

One other shot of Mecha-Godzilla with all the extra poo poo attached/opened (even a set of red eyes).

The only way that Mecha-Godzilla could be more awesome is if they included a bonus Hideki Matsui.
