Hedorah

Hedorah holds a special place in my heart. When I used to watch Creature Double Feature on channel 56 in Boston, I would obsess over all the monster movies. But one scene terrified me in a way that still sticks with me to this day.

I have a memory of a scene where a baby is drowning in the toxic pollution left behind by Hedorah.

I mean, COME ON.

Anyway, one of the great things about Hedorah as a toy is that it can be open to so many intrepretations. I tend to buy them whenever I see them.

In this case, it’s the Super7 ReAction Hedorah. This one’s a bit more expensive than a regular ReAction due to it’s size, but it’s well worth it.

Hedorah has 5 points of articulation: arms, legs and tail. It feels great, the sculpt is amazing and the paint is just sparse enough to give the monster depth.
