Gigan is easily one of my top three favorite MonsterArts figures in my collection. If you wiggle the buzzsaw to loosen it you can get it to move up and down a bit.
It makes sense that he doesn't come with an effects piece. He never used his forehead laser blaster in the Showa Era. But a spinning abdominal buzz saw would've been appropriate.
GIVE YOUR FIGURES ACCESSORIES, MONSTERARTS laser effect part (even a duplicate of FW Gigan's beam would've been fine) flight stand airplanes for him to murder power plant buildings explosion effect parts
An amazing review as always, really detailed and beautiful figure this is, I can really see that they really gave their effort to this figure. Hope to see gigan in the big screen again.
I'm not to beat up about the lack of effects. To be fair, Gigan didn't have any beams in his movie apperances. Though, I hope those tight shoulders you mentioned aren't a common issue. Joints that are too tight make me nervous.
Sh Monsterarts should make a ebirah and gabara, ebirah should come with a rock and a stand for the rock, and gabara should mostly have expressive hands, like thumbs up, pointing (like laughing at something) punching hands, open hands, and a hand that has a electricity effect part ( maybe even a middle finger XD )
I’m so into the Gabara idea, especially with all those hand mold ideas 😂 definitely not a popular monster but with all the potential add ons and effects I’d say the collectors would enjoy it, I know I would
Now that SHMA Soshingekigoji is out, these two pair incredibly well. I picked up both and they really feel made for each other, I want to make a display of the power plant fight from the movie to put them both in
My only complaints are the lack of anything besides the figure. No Eye Beam effect? No movie related terrain add ons? I mean the old Revoltech one had an oil tank and refinery pieces. At half the price. This thing is priced the same as the most expensive SH Figuarts. With less plastic, engineering and accessories. Why Bandai?
This may be one of the best SH Figuarts they've released. I was not into the price but honestly, this is top tier. I don't think they could do a better Gigan.
One of the highlight releases of modern SH Monsterarts in my opinion, I just wish the wings felt better to handle. I’m not referring to the joints, it’s that the wings themselves feel awful to handle.
Despite not coming with any accessories, Gigan turned out, as you would say, absolutely fantastic! The sculpt is so good, he looks like he just walked off the screen. Those wings are definitely delicate. I've only moved them once and that's it, don't plan on messing with them because I don't want to risk that too small joint wearing over time and snapping. With last year's Hedorah, and Gigan this year, Tamashii Nations have been killing it with Showa releases. I really hope we get a Megalon for his 50th.
@@DiegoDoom pls tell me if you can cuz I really wanna buy the type a figure and use the effect part with the SKC version so I can use it with my zetton
7:29 While this does look cool and all, it's nor accurate. Showa Gigan never used a laser beam aside from poster, comics and games. He never used it until Final Wars came, although the laser beam fired from his visor rather than the beam lamp.
@@Kaiju-bm4ts so you think monsterarts and figuarts are made by a different company? Also gigan has energy projection so I’m sure there can be an effect for that easily made.
@@kalobhunt9001 I never said they aren't made by a different company, I simply said they are different lines. Also gigan never shot any beam from his eyes so there's no need for him to have any accessories
@@Kaiju-bm4ts so there isn’t one effect they could give to him? How about some smoke fire a broken building broken street an effect piece doesn’t have to be an attack. That’s all I’m saying

ik
is a link for HLJ like to the figures that you review?
It makes sense when I’m not giving him accessories because he has no beam in the original movie
Gigan is such an awesome character, he needs to appear in more movies.
Hes probably my favorite Godzilla villain behind King Ghidorah
Gigan is easily one of my top three favorite MonsterArts figures in my collection. If you wiggle the buzzsaw to loosen it you can get it to move up and down a bit.
Thanks for Watching Darryl!
@@DiegoDoomHey man monsterarts is also making Godzilla 1972 to go along with 72 Gigan your in for a surprise.
@@oliverneves-gi3lhYES!!! Godzilla 72 isn’t even scary or menacing it’s just cute like a dog.but the godzilla 72 ain’t cute it’s ugly.

The buzzsaw may not rotate but it does jiggle up and down just a little.

Yep, preordered Gigan on BBTS and I'm okay waiting for him to be released. But yeah the wings do concern me, still I'll be careful with them for sure.
You out here doing the lords work buying two figures to confirm QC issues. You a real one!!!
Real recognizes real lol. I wanted to make sure I had a spare incase I broke the first one.
Might get him later on. I am waiting for Gamera 99 to get here. Great review as always

Great review and awesome looking figure! It's about time Gigan got some love
Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!
The showa Gigan didn't really show any special effect so my guess is that's why.
My only complaints are the lack of anything besides the figure. No Eye Beam effect? No movie related terrain add ons? I mean the old Revoltech one had an oil tank and refinery pieces.

Cannot wait for mine to come in mail. Outstanding review as well as the heads up via wings/tail.
Thanks for Watching and Thanks for The Support!
Holy shoot, they finally made it
Glad SHMA is doing more Showa kaijus as the 1968-72 Godzilla was also announced a few months ago
One of the highlight releases of modern SH Monsterarts in my opinion, I just wish the wings felt better to handle. I’m not referring to the joints, it’s that the wings themselves feel awful to handle.
Great figure. The only issue I have woth mine is a crooked jaw 😑
I just got him and holy he's quiet sharp especially those Fins in his dorsal wing.
Wow awesome Gigan figure I'm definitely going to buy it for Christmas this is going to be my gift.
Ohh can't wait for mine to come in.. Nice review.
That’s PRock!!!
ABSOLUTELY FAAANTASTIC
Gorgeous color pallete 🎨
Riobot Getter Dragon next!
Great review as always, like the figure, but gonna skip it, gotta save for Mecha King Ghidorah

Absolutely fantastic review!

@@DiegoDoom your welcome! keep making these fantastic reviews!
This figure revealed to me that Gigan has a little blade on the end of his tail, something I hadn't known for probably 20 years
You deserve more subs
superb!
Megalon and classic jet jaguar is overdue
Absolutely!
Diego i wanna ask, can you use the specium ray effect part from SHF Ultraman type a/c on the new SKC Ultraman?
I think you can. I would have to test it
@@DiegoDoom pls tell me if you can cuz I really wanna buy the type a figure and use the effect part with the SKC version so I can use it with my zetton
@@DiegoDoomdoes it work?
@@DiegoDoom can it work?
You think they'll rerelease this at all? He's been in so many movies..
How much time does it take for anime export to arrive it has been 5 days and I ordered the 5 day one (just a doubt)
Hola❤
is that sh monsterart gigan 1972 better than gigan 2004?
I think that is a matter of which design you like better. Both figures are fantastic.
Can you please tell me where you bought these amazing house backdrops?
There is a link to my vlog on them in the description

Hey Diego what makes a proper kajiu to you like what are your personal rules when it comes down to a design for one?
As long as its a unique monster. It can look as crazy as it needs to. I don't like big versions of regular everyday creatures, like King Kong.
@@DiegoDoom honestly the same opinion it’s just that the thought of King Kong is more realistic than Godzilla to me
Could you make a review about the new sh monsterarts gamera rebirth
I hope u review shf skc Ultraman dyna
There's also Great Mazinkaiser
I have him already. I'm going to review Getter Dragon first
Where did you get the buildings for your city? I want some

What if we got megalon so we can have gigan and megalon

Why sh monsterart not have anguirus
Be Careful With Gigan’s Head, Y’all Already Know What Happens To It 😂😂😂
I'm personally not that much of a fan of this figure and Gigan overall, though it does look neat.
Man what is figuarts problem with damn effects pieces? Come on give us some effects.
This isn't figuarts, it's monsterarts and showa gigan didn't have any abilities or weapons that would come in accessories
