    This thing started showing up in Toy R Us over the past week...



    Here is a picture with it along side of the Shogun Warriors Godzilla as a comparison..

          Keep in mind that this thing is so big that just one toy appears to take up the entire amount of shelf space that was allocated for it in the store (at least that is how it was here where I found it) so if somebody buys one then the shelf goes empty until they get around to restocking it.

          Also, it may be that only the larger TRU stores are carrying the piece. I first went to an older, smaller store which ~did~ have a display out for the new Godzilla movie but no Giant figure and no space on the shelf for one. I asked an associate and he said "Yeah, our store isn't going to be getting those."

          So I went over to one of the newer (larger) stores and Bingo!.. There it was.

                It looks great and I want one but I'm going to wait for the inevitable deluxe sound version.
                You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                  since there is another thread on this in the "Monster movie rountable" section that some may have missed (but can be found here http://megomuseum.com/community/show...lla-from-Jakks ),

                  I made a comparison photo with the Mattel Godzilla and this one from Jakks

                    You are the only other person who has agreed with me that there will be a second release. Just like jakks vader.

                    Btw, I bought one because I assume this will be the cheaper of the two. It is HUge!!!!

                      It's already got speaker holes and a battery compartment. I think a deluxe sound one is a safe bet.

                      I got the deluxe talking Jakks Vader with lightsaber. I think it was about the same price. I'm glad I waited.

                          Just scored one at TRU yesterday! For $50, this is one big impressive figure.

                            If they do the original I'll be all over it. And my army men will be waiting.

                              That's pure awesome but I'd love to see an original one as well.
