SHMA Mechagodzilla 2021 vs Bootleg Mechagodzilla 2021

  • Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
  • SHMonsterarts or SHMA has been the most popular and the most sophisticated toyline when it comes to 6 inch godzilla action figures. And they don't come cheap. So naturally bootleg figures will always pop up based on their design. And fans really don't mind since they sell for less than 80% of the original price. Mechagodzilla 2021 being such an expensive but such a popular figure is definitely one of those that fans are hoping to have a bootleg figure. So today we are going to compare them and see if its worth buying.

    From what everyone has said about this figure I’d say the trade offs seem worth the price for this figure over the SHMA, or at least for me it does. As a customizer, I’d rather buy something that’s so close to just as good than spend 5 times more for a figure that’s actually a bit disappointing as it comes

    • @TheHowbbyist
      @TheHowbbyist  2 роки тому +8

      Yes. Definitely. 😊 Although it is important to consider the gimmicks the original has. It is a bit hard (considering the small size) to custom them onto the bootleg once molded already. But of course, it still is bang for the buck for what it offers without it.

      @@artsy_dragon_creations wow! Good eye! Thank you for pointing that out! Yes I can confirm the forearm is switched up. Unfortunately, the forearm is glued to the hinge joint. Pulling it would mess up the hinge joint for sure. If I would guess the hinge joint need to be pryed out from the bicep to keep it intact. But huge thanks for pointing that flaw out! 😍

    Hello. If you look closely, the forearms on your bootleg are on the wrong arms. The forearm is supposed to have an armor plate that slightly overlaps the elbow hinge on the outside. Yours has those plates, but they are on the inside of the arms. If you can figure out how to swap the forearms you'll have a more movie accurate bootleg

    Did you ever get or purchased a bootleg that looked similar to a Showa King Ghidorah figure?
    I mean the King Ghidorah from those old 60’s -70’s Godzilla movies?
    I got a Showa KG by accident or did I get scammed?
    I thought I had ordered a bootleg King Ghidorah 2019 because that’s what auction title said on Ebay.
    It cost me $40 USD plus $10 USD shipping grand total $50 USD.
    It arrived in a Styrofoam box, and it smelled awful (fuel of some kind) or to be honest, I let it air out on my patio outside for two days before opening it. The figure was painted like SHMA King Ghidorah 2019 that dark tan color but I was totally surprised and happy when I realized
    It’s a Showa King Ghidorah from 60’s-70’s !!!
    That SKG is the best looking and functional bootleg I have ever seen, I still have it with all my SHMA / NECA figures - Kaiju collection !
    I even did a review on it. I hope you will check it out and give me your thoughts on it.
    Later,
    G-MAN
    Peace 🦖!
