Godzilla Toy of the Day

Hello everybody this is Fernando for Godzilla Movie news.

I thought I would create yet another new column, this one dedicated to the wonderful world of toys within the Godzilla franchise.

Of course I already have a column dedicated to Godzilla related toys, but that one is geared more towards the truly weird and bizarre.

With this new column I'd like to spearhead some of the most wonderful Godzilla toys out there, as there are some truly great examples to share. It seems that some Godzilla toymakers/licensees really loved Godzilla as a franchise, and looked to make their toys the best ones out there.

As such here is the inaugural Toy of the Day:



What an absolutely beautiful looking toy here. Modeled after the Godzilla from his last movie, this "Large Deluxe Godzilla Final Wars" figure truly gives Godzilla one of the best representations around.

From the head to the detailed skin to the amazing looking spines, this toy has it all. Just look at the fine level of detail crafted on this model. Even the teeth have that right look. This type of detail is usually reserved for revered toymakers like Sideshow collectibles (which usually cost $100 for one of their statues), but here it's almost having that quality for only a fraction of the price.

Plus it stands at 12 inches tall, which in the toy world is immense!

The only con I can think of is that such a deluxe model deserved to have some effect placed within it, like a Godzilla roar or a spine rack that lights up.
