Bigger....better....blow molded..


Review: Bootleg Godzilla

What better way to honor a classic than to buy its cheap knockoffs?


Review: Haruo Nakajima as Godzilla (Irasawa Version)

An unusual, but appealing vinyl from M1.


Review: Cinerama Sofubi Series Glow Hedorah

For me, this is the last nail in the coffin of Chinese vinyl.


Review: Ultra Monster Series Melba

Melba (or Meruba) is an Ultra Kaiju from Ultraman Tiga. It's the calm before the storm of comicon coverage.

If you need a Kanegon for your kaiju shelf, you could do worse than this Yamanaya vinyl. But you could also do better...

Neronga is the next in our ongoing reviews of Ultra Kaiju Sofubi

Review: Ultra Monster Series EX Red King

Has the designer toy movement infected the house of Ultraman?


Review: Pygmon

One of Ultraman's kaiju friends, Pygmon is one one of the more easily recognized of the classic monsters that appeared on Ultraman. But hey, with a leering face like Pygmon how could you forget!

Max Toy Co. and Dream Rocket team up to bring you the latest foe of Captain Maxx.... Kaiju Drazoran!


Review: Jet Jaguar

Maybe "he mother never love him", but tons of fans do and they longed for this release for years..


Review: Movie Monsters Mothra

I never liked or appreciated Mothra until I got older and re-watched the classic 1961 film. Those damn peanuts stole my heart, I tell you.
