[@atomiclitzilla7483]

Bandai is part of Playmates.

[@WHOOOSHXDOfficial]

E. Emiliano Villa Bandai and playmates are two different companies that are not connected to each other. Bandai is a Japanese company that has licenses to many figures and has had the Godzilla license for a long time. Playmates is a Hong Kong company that also makes many figures but is released in America and make only recently got the the Godzilla licenses

[@buffmarte]

Thanks for the reviews guys. I like the 2 Kongs & the Gigan, and the Destroyah figure could use a little paint custom work to look great. But many of these Playmates figures don't look so good. Hopefully they get helpful critical feedback from fans and do better with the sculpts next time.

I hope the movie figures will turn out well, since they have extra time to work on them.

They als have said that they will start to use their own original sculpts for Godzilla figures! Also playmates has confirmed that they will be making a Jet Jaguar and Burning Godzilla in 2021 and more that they aren’t ready to reveal, they will also release a 12 inch Godzilla in the fall of 2021

Those kongs are amazing. The others could definitely use some work though. Destoroyah isn't all that bad but he looks weird indeed. I know that i said he looks amazing but i don't really know if i could really say that now. I changed my mind on how he looks. I actually have the 6 inch kong and the gigan. I might get that 11 inch kong too. But if they made the top of the 11 inch kong head a little smaller and the mouth a bit wider then he wouldn't been perfect. Great review i loved it!

Guys, what a great review! I've been finding a bunch of videos of these figures piecemeal, but nobody has gone out got ALL of them for us! Thank you, and I just wanted to say that I've been a grateful and proud subscriber for both of you for over a year now. And as far as the toys go, I agree with your comments. I actually like Gigan, and I'll pick him up and possibly repaint his wings. His sculpt is decent. Too bad about Destroyah, I'm probably going to pick him up, I just wish his sculpt and face wasn't so rough. I also dig both Kongs and the FW Goji too. One last thing though, what were the prices on the 6" figures? And do you think if the theory about Playmates rushing these guys out for the Spring and Summer is true, that their releases will start to look better in the Fall, sculpt and paint wise? I'd love a touched up SpaceGodzilla, but as it stands now, I can't. He just looks horrendous. Thanks again, guys.

[@LuminousNews]

Thank you for watching and subscribing! I really wanted to show all the Playmates toys in one video, so I'm glad I finally found them all. The six inch figures are $13 and the eleven inch figures are $20. I do think these figures were rushed out, so I hope the movie figures are better.

[@foxbatentertainment2137]

Shin Godzilla looks funky

[@skunkape3257]

I am convinced most of these figures are altered molds of Bandai and NECA figures. The Playmates Shin Godzilla literally has the joint seam lines in the tail and at the end where the bend wire starts on the NECA figure. The Godzilla 2004 figure has the same legs and tail as the Bandai as well. The King Kong figures are probably also mold rips but I haven't seen a lot of the Kong: Skull Island toys.
