Growing up throughout the 2000s, finding anything Godzilla related was like winning a $50 scratch off game. Now it’s so common with so many new announcements, that when I go to target and see all these different types of figures, I mostly ignore it because I set a rule to avoid over collecting. Which is that I only get one Godzilla figure per incarnation. Which will be either the best or most preferred figure. Which does result in me, looking at deluxe size figures and monsterarts, but it keeps me from buying five versions of Godzilla -1 made by super 7, Bandai, monster arts, movie monster, mini figs, etc.
It's been building since like 2017, i think, because i remember things like the godzilla press tour and getting excited about that. I still want one of those because it makes me laugh so much.
Omg show Tiffany the sweater! ❤ I’m so happy for you! The fave things I got during the last year are my sleepy Godzilla Funko pop and my Minus Goji figurine.
Last year, since it was the 50th Anniversary of MG74, my favorite movie, I tried to get as many pieces of merchandise related to that movie as possible. For example, I got a Japanese laserdisc release of it. Granted, I don't have a player for it, but still.
Cloud 9, 10, and beyond. I'm more of an action figure type of collector even though it's not Godzilla or Mothra if it's a monster that posable and looks badass to me oh, yeah instant impulse buy.
As someone who also prefers plushies over figures: my kingdom for a Shimo plush! My favorite piece of Godzilla merch that I got last year was the Neca(sp?) Monsterverse Rodan figure my boyfriend bought for me at a con he went to last spring. Also, a bit off-topic, but I sent you a message over on KG that I hope you'll enjoy. I was hit by a surge of creativity earlier in the week and wrote something I wanted to share with you. Hopefully it's not too awful.
yeah, seeing all this godzilla merch now is kind of double edged sword, yes i'm glad we have so much godzilla stuff now, but I'm seeing so much cool stuff and i can't afford it all. RIP my poor wallet. but i did finally get the godzilla figures from godzilla minus one.
that mothra cardigan is so cute
We really are in a golden age of merch!

@@DonnyWinter Sadly I haven't found any yet. I hope it doesn't end up wasting your time, and I apologize if so.
