I agree

Im just happy for some competition against MonsterArts so they can stop taking advantage with their pricepoints. Recently saw the GhidoGoji mould, I hope we get an articulated one and potentially having HiyaToys fill the Showa Era blanks we've been missing.

The torso DOES move. It's just really tight at first

I hope Hiya makes a Minus One Godzilla figure.

To my knollage, Hiya got a license to do some heisei godzilla stuff. I think they are making a statue and possible an articulated figure. Maybe in the future toho will give them free reigne over their kaiju

Hiya Toys sculpts with Tamashii Nations engineering would be peak, but as it stands they have a long way to go with articulation. Ghidorah especially was way more limited than I’d hoped but he’s still awesome

Tbh I prefer hiya toys ghidorah over sh monsterarts, the colonization and sculpt is tbh to good and the articulation is great, you can even get ghidorah to fly or to crawl on all 4s! Maybe not as nimble on the neck but tbh I'm ok with that

I hope Hiya would make more TOHO figures after their Heisei Godzilla releases. Im hoping they'll do Kiryu.

@@DiegoDoom It's much more apparent with the Heat Ray version of this figure

absolutely FANTASTIC!

One thing I love about Hiya is the bigger size of their monster figures, and I'm excited for their 91 goji.

Actually, as someone who owns a copy of this figure, the torso joint has more range of motion than what you've shown here. You can even potentially spin it around 360, if you're daring enough. Just be careful when moving that joint for the first time, and of course, it won't be as crazy articulated as in SHMA Godzilla KOTM. EDIT: I decided to find out why my copy is stiff on some joints on the tail, and I found that some of the dumbbell joints were superglued to the sockets, which shocked me to be honest. I had to gently, but firmly free those dumbbell joints, so that they can move on their sockets. Now the tail is able to do more natural curves. So, for those of you who have a copy of this figure and have stiff tail joints, check if the dumbbell joints have been superglued to the sockets

@DiegoDoom

Do you have to pull the joint up or just twist hard?

@titan133760

@@DiegoDoom In my experience, you don't have to pull the joint up. Just twist it with a careful and consistently firm pressure. Alternatively, so that the dorsal plates don't clash with each other, you can crunch down the torso joint and then twist. The only joints I have problems with are some of the tail joints, which I find too stiff to allow tighter tail curve poses

Cant wait to get mine in the mail. I like the weathered look. Its like he just popped out of the sand, which incidentally happens in the Monarch series

Highly looking forward to the next, upcoming Hiya Toys review

I can only imagine s.h monsterarts is furious rn, also hiya has great customer service I got my hiya toys Godzilla 2019 in like two weeks and I’m in Australia so I was expecting a massive wait similar to when I ordered my first monsterarts figure from America. Didn’t cost me a lot either around 122 bucks including delivery which is still cheaper than any monsterarts figure

If this new line of figures continues i want to see more of their work, what most impressed me was how accurate the figure is to the film, really amazing, i would like to see a 2014 Godzilla and a other monsterverse creatures in this line and also other kaijus. So let's see what happens next.

They actually are releasing a Godzilla '91 and it looks incredible.

I finally got mine in but sadly the back fins were all warped to hell to one side, then while I was trying to heat the figure up to fix the fins one of the lower legs fell right off 😂 after glueing it back on it’s sturdy enough but it gave me a chance to see how the inner joints worked, ballpeg into a very tight ratchet where the lower knee is. Even with the foot off I had a tough time getting it to move. Overall tho I still love the sculpt and heft but some of the inner joints are a bit worrying for me.

Aw man, I want to have this for my last Christmas which my mom ordered last year but it was delayed.

I think the articulation can get a lot better with some heat work. Something Hiya will need to work on for future releases.

You can definitely get more range out of that waist articulation

Hiya seems like the poster child of NECA and S.H Monsterarts. Having somewhat NECA joints and Monsterarts details. Glad that new collectors can buy a new Godzilla figure that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg compared to Monsterarts.

the wash in-between the scales seems to vary quite a lot between individual figures, on this one and some other reviews I have seen some with a lot of wash however my figure has very little which I am quite thankful for. Very much luck of the draw how much of the pink you get

How do you know though? no offence but you shouldn't judge a figure immediately, you're claiming that this is "dogshit" even though you NEVER bought a Hiya Toys figure because unlike Tamashii Nations, Hiya actually listens to criticism and improves their figures which is something Tamashii should be doing if they actually listened to their customers complaints
