Rampage Toys x Medicom Godzilla 23cm Figure from GODZILLA VINYL WARS EX Series

This is my favorite thing, and why I keep the shop open: working with emerging artists and helping them in whatever small way I can to establish themselves and their names, and assist them in leveling up. That's why I do micro run releases, make blog posts and send out emails and press releases about their work.

We started working with Jon Malmstedt of Rampage Toys so long ago that I don't even really know when we started. Maybe 8 years ago, before he set off for Japan. At that time, I sold his one-off customs (on other people's platforms), his small resin figures and handmade plushes.

Fast forward to today, and Jon now has an official Godzilla release through Medicom! I have scant info on this Rampage Godzilla figure, aside from the fact that this is a Medicom vinyl Godzilla figure that's 23cm (9 inches) tall. That seems to be Jon's paint work on it, and I assume he sculpted this figure for Medicom.

In response to overwhelming requests from all over the world, GODZILLA VINYL WARS EX series has began!  

Entry of RAMPAGE STUDIO from USA!

You can pick this figure up for $115 here - preorders look like they close on October 31, so don't sleep!

Jon will soon be releasing all the official info on his blog here, at which point I am sure I will have to edit some of the info I just wrote.

For now, HUGE CONGRATS to Jon and his Rampage Toys brand. A true, original and wonderful organic creation. He just put his head down, made positive relationships, and cranked out work for years, and this is what happens when you stay positive and stay focused. An insipiration!

Visit the Rampage Webstore for a whole slew of other unique and colorful monsters, custom toys and sofubi figures. We also have our own page to host the Rampage Toys items that we have in stock.

SoKo Cat Release - Custom Godzilla - Chibi Godzilla

Chibi Godzilla has been custom molded and cast in resin.  SoKo Cat has hand-painted the completed pull, with high-quality acrylics and washes, to produce a unique, original-colorway itty bitty kaiju!  With yellow, glazed eyes and painted fangs, the detail on this piece is remarkable, given it is only 7/8 inches tall!

10 custom Chibi Godzillas are available!  They will be available for purchase from SoKo Cat's online store, dropping Monday, May 2, 2016!  Be sure to keep an eye out for these adorable but still fierce monsters, as they will surely sell out quickly!

Important: Due to the nature of their small size, there may my a few small imperfections in the cast resin (i.e. itty bitty bubbles.)  It is because of this reason that they will be priced at $25 each with
free domestic shipping!

Not for the younglings!  Although a toy, it is a toy for youths ages 13 and up.  No, seriously.  This little guy is 7/8" tall and can be a very quick and nasty gulp for a small child.  Consider yourself
warned!

Toy Tokyo NYCC 2015 Exclusives Line-up Press Release

Its that time of year again, New York Comic Con, and Toy Tokyo has an exciting line-up of exclusives laid out for our fans at booth 101, October 8th through to the 11th at the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan.

Top of the list...this is a big one...two Godzilla Funko Pop! Toy Tokyo Exclusives. Two versions, the 1954 Black and Gray Godzilla, and a Glow In the Dark Ghost version. Each will be $30.

Godzilla Pop! Vinyls...

But, that ain’t it! On top of the Godzilla Pop! Vinyls (which are a super-sized 6 inch figure) and other exclusive Toy Tokyo Funko products, Toy Tokyo is proudly sponsoring 3 of the original Godzilla costume actors at NYCC 2015 to sign autographs. Haruo Nakajima is among the three suit actors, the original 1954 Godzilla. It will be truly an amazing event and honor for us at Toy Tokyo, as well as the fans.

Godzilla Actor Signings...

Also on hand signing autographs will be Kenpachiro Satsuma, who donned the Godzilla costume first in 1984, all the way through to 1995.

And wrapping up the Godzilla suit-actor timeline, Tsutomu Kitagawa will be the third actor present for the signings. Kitagawa first portrayed to coveted role of Godzilla in 1998, all the way through to 2003...probably when CG started taking over.

Autographs by the actors will be available at discount pricing with the purchase of the Toy Tokyo Godzilla Pop! Vinyl exclusives throughout the show. The exclusives are of the original 1954 Godzilla (which according to many experts, the design has “nailed it!”).

If a fan purchases a single Godzilla Pop! and wants it signed by Nakajima, the cost of the signature will be $15 as opposed to $25.

With the purchase of both Godzilla Toy Tokyo Exclusives, a single signature on both will cost only $25, half off of the regular price of $50 for the signing of two pieces.

With a purchase of one Godzilla Toy Tokyo Exclusive, the autographs of all three actors, the cost will be $50 as opposed to $75. A $25 savings on the autographs.

And lastly, the two piece set of the Toy Tokyo Godzilla Exclusives being signed by all three actors will cost only $60 as opposed to $75.

All three of the actors will also be present to sign any Godzilla memorabilia for the price of $25 for each autograph...that could be posters, photos, other toys...whatever the fan chooses to bring.

Millennium Godzilla...

And in other Godzilla news, Toy Tokyo will also be presenting a very limited Marmit Millennium Godzilla Exclusive produced by Medicom Toy Japan. This piece has been produced in honor of Toy Tokyo’s 15 year anniversary!

Ron English Signing...

On Thursday, October 8 Master Popagandist Ron English will be signing three amazing exclusives! One of the pieces is a very recognizable video game star with the distinct Ron English twist (Mario Grin), and the Mushroom Grin. Along with a trio of Star Skulls.

The signing will take place between 2pm and 3pm at the Toy Tokyo booth 101.

Pop! Asia…

Toy Tokyo will also be proudly presenting a selection of very cool Pop! Asia pieces. All available, of course, in very limited numbers.

The other Toy Tokyo Funko Exclusives for NYCC 2015 are as follows:

• Topping the list is Freddy Funko in celebration of Toy Tokyo’s 15 year anniversary

• Then there is an old school Battlestar Galactica Lt. Starbuck in a white uniform

• Partnered with Starbuck is Captain Apollo, also in a Toy Tokyo Exclusive white uniform

• C-3P0 Hikari, in the Toy Tokyo Exclusive Dirty Penny edition

• And finally, a Dorbz Ridez Batmobile with Batman

Pricing for the exclusives is currently not available for the balance Toy Tokyo Exclusives, aside from the two Godzilla Pop! Vinyl pieces.

The Toy Tokyo team is very excited about this year’s New York Comic Con, and look forward to seeing all of our loyal fans that have supported us over the years, as well as all of the new supporters we have gained in more recent years.

Jakks Pacific Releases Giant Sized Godzilla Action Figure

 Due for release THIS WEEKEND, this giant sized Godzilla action figure is exactly what a die-hard fan needs to pacify them until the release of the new movie this summer!

Jakks Pacific has really knocked one out of the park with this king of the kaiju! Godzilla stands 24" tall and is 43" in length, he has 12 points of articulation including his jaws and tail.

Jakks Pacific exclusive release.

Giant Sized Godzilla is 43" long!

Godzillas optional closed jaws.

You gotta love the detail on this Giant Kaiju.

If the name Jakks Pacific seems familiar, it's because they're the company that released the giant-sized Darth Vader and Power Rangers last year.

Giant Sized Godzilla is GIANT!

You can grab one of these bad boys at several online retailers (and Toys R Us) for under $50.
I don't know about you guys but I hope the theater let's me bring this guy in when I go to see the new movie.
