S.H. Monster Arts King Ghidorah Review

[@MonsterIslandBuddies]

I love SH Monster Arts but I have to agree with this vid and the posts about this one being way too delicate. I had an experience with a wing breaking just SECONDS out of the box, as a result of just trying to turn it slightly. As this vid says there is a wide range of articulation, but now I'm too scared to turn any joints. I just glued the wing and put it on display - I'm too scared to touch it now.

I want to get this so badly, but all the fragile wings and head rumors scare me. Hopefully, Tamashii will re-release this again in the future...

[@godziller9976]

Although this comment was 7 years ago, I agree. I wish they fixed this figure. Even though they made a special color version, I'm not a fan of its color but they still fixed the issues. Wish there was an accurate articulated heisei king ghidorah that had better wings and plastic

Chances are the ones with with the most Q.C. issues were the ones available at the release date, the last ones probably didn't have as many problems given that Godzilla got a second edition which removed the beam effect but fixed the derpy eyes and it's the one i got, as far as i know ghidorah didn't get a second edition.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching! I'm sorry to hear your wings fell off. I glad you could repair them. Since this review I haven't touched my King Ghidorah's wings. I wouldn't mind if they reissued King Ghidorah with a new wing system.

[@Yogan11]

I live in Japan and bought this figure yesterday in Akihabara. When I got home and opened the box, the wing was ALREADY snapped off. I took it back today and got a new one that is in great condition. The wings are a disaster of a flaw on an otherwise masterful sculpt. BTW I love your reviews, they are all very nice, very neat, and very cool :-)

[@timelord19631]

for the money you pay for this figure, their shouldn't be any problems

[@DiegoDoom]

+chris gambuti I agree.

[@jonnylyden]

got mine weeks back, and I must say it was worth every damn penny, best part is mine didn't have any of the dreaded QC issues at all, looks just right having him next to my Heisei Goji birth ver.

[@tylers2413]

to answer your tail question, ***** , some of the video games they gave king ghidorah a tail attack sort of move, but in the movie i don't believe the tails were used in that manner. Great Vids and keep up the great work!!! I myself just purchased the 2014 monsterarts godzilla!

[@marlocroft4779]

Diego doom I wish i had the sh monsterarts king ghidorah 1991 to have some playtime

[@fazarfazar58]

im about to get one so im just checking the issues and the breaking problems so that i know how to be very careful after all no one wants an broken joint figure

[@yankeesfan512]

Great review, thanks for posting. Unfortunately, I saw this AFTER I purchased the figure at NY Comic Con from the Tamashi Nations store. Got home and carefully opened the box after chatting with someone who'd ordered his figure online and warned about fragility issues. To my dismay both outer heads were detached and the wing mounts for both wings looked like they were going to fall out, although they appear to be OK. Its not so easy as people have said to just reattach the heads.

[@jonnylyden]

just pulled the trigger on this figure ( $435 ) and keeping my fingers crossed that I don't get QC issues

[@justinevans3525]

the nail polish worked like a charm thanks i enjoy your vids i watch before i buy any of them

[@EmpireoftheHandFilms]

I was unaware with of the wing problem when i first got it, yet i still was not that rough with it. Also I had to return my second one because the middles head's ball joint would not go back in. it was out of the joint when i opened the box.

[@strikerevimus]

I was wondering if mine's loose left wing was a random occurrence or not. Thanks for confirming that there are widespread issues with the figure. Mine definitely has some issues in the wing like I mentioned. A loose swivel joint inside that causes the wing to droop at the slightest brush when spread out. And then there's an issue with the socket and portion of that torso being mis-molded where it's not flush with the the rest of the figure. Just have to wait on a re-issue for a better one.

[@Goji73]

It's so sad how much of a disappointment this figure wound up becoming... But then again it can only be expected from such an enormous figure in general. Since MonstersArts is moving onto Showa next in line, I hope they've learned their lesson from this figure if they ever decide to make a Showa Incarnation of him...

[@reversenoobz1]

Still better than 2019 one

[@GreenLanternPrime01]

Fantastic review!! I just got this figure today and he's amazing. Simply amazing.

[@DiegoDoom]

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching! That's great to hear.

[@Roguewarrior98]

I got my King Ghidorah about a week ago but I was afraid to open it, so when I finally did I found that the wings on mine didn't snap, though one is sagging and loose, but two of the heads came off and so did their necks, and part of one tail. I'm hoping that whenever I get Destoroyah he is better. Good review by the way! :D

[@Gojirex]

These reviews are epic, you deserve more views.

[@DevTitanwood]

Your voice is perfect with reviews! You almost sound like a professional announcer!

[@mathiasmorqubus]

You can apply crazy glue or nail polish to the ball joint let it set and then reattach if you do that move it around for about 10 minutes.The other thing you can do is use duct tape on the ball joint it will hold for a while(year or 2) but you will have to replace it.

[@CollectorsCritique]

Remember the scene in the 1991 film, where Godzilla uses his heat ray to sever Ghidorah's middle head? Perhaps S.H. Monsterarts intends to release an accessory pack for this figure where you can swap out the middle head with a bloody stump and that could be why the joint is looser there? Glad that I watched this review before purchasing this figure, because while I still intend to buy it, I now know that I should be careful with it when it arrives. Great review, I especially like the intro ;)

[@StevensToyReviews]

If you heat the sculpt up with a blow dryer, you can pop ball joints back in easily. I had to do that with my SpaceGodzilla's hand.

[@Volrath2242]

Both of my wings came off of him. Got them fixed up better then new. stupid gravity was the villain in this case

[@PetraVoice]

wow! my twins are going to love this when they get home from school. I want one for myself LOL. thanks :D

[@AviLlaJohWil]

@7:02 that kinda reminds me of the scene where godzilla shot the middle head off with the atomic breath so that might actully intentional

[@Shamus1019]

and to get ball pegs back into the socket you get a cup of hat water dip the base of the neck into it not the disconnected part just the part that's connected to the body for about 30 to 45 second depending on how hard the plastic is and when you can squish thats when you push the ball peg back in

[@TheActionBase]

WOW. Awesome Review man. I can't wait to get a hold on my King Ghidorah. Just love the size and detail of this figure. Very nicely done.!!!

[@EmpireoftheHandFilms]

nice review, got mine today. Sadly the left wing broke within a few minutes of use

[@GodzillaProductionsTV]

is it still unsafe to purchase this item?

[@DiegoDoom]

I think it's still a gamble, even the reissue. The reissue might not be as much of a gamble.

[@GodzillaProductionsTV]

@@DiegoDoom I'm just a kid so I'm not going to somehow save up $300 just for a broken figure.

[@ortboys]

Nice review! I just got Godzilla, Mechagodzilla and Spacegodzilla. I really want to get more but they are so expensive! The Destroyah one looks amazing and they had a prototype for Biollante, they seem like they would be very expensive!

[@DirektorSplennic]

I have a question I want to make my reviews better and I took your advice about a back drop but what color would I use if I reviewed sh monsterarts Godzilla black or white?

[@thegato242]

I think I'm getting this King Ghidorah for Christmas

[@Shamus1019]

and diego try pushing up the tounge when you put in the gravity beam in i think that it might help hold the beams

[@comicbookprodigy995]

I need help deciding. Would you rather have the Destroyah or King Ghidorah MonsterArts figure?

[@DJphantomdragon]

I feel like you earn money to go towards these figures every time you say absolutely fantastic either way your videos are awesome keep up the good work

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! I'm not sponsored by any company,so I do not have an incentive to praise this figure. I'm genuinely impressed by most of the figures in the S.H. Monster Arts line.

[@Vallent518]

Its possible that the socket for the middle head is to small for the joint. The same thing happened with my 1st fire rodan but with his wing. Try using some hot water on it and expanding it or if you want. However you should not move it to much or it will fall out again

[@GamePro61]

Good point about the head aurathehedgehog but on other reviews they state that there middle head doesn't pop out like DiegoDoom's but there's are very secured

[@Volrath2242]

To help with the joint warm up one end of it with say hot water and then slide the other end into it. that should take are of that head for you

[@Shamus1019]

and this figure along with G2K and Kiryu are problably my favorite

[@Beatlesfanize]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...........Thank you for sharing !!!

[@DiegoDoom]

[@avidenaro6612]

However this three headed beast in each timeline has a different backstory.

[@theguywiththeface92]

i saw this guy at Acme comics and this gut is huge even his box is i can not wait to get this figure

[@broskibrothers789]

The figure looks nice and is a great representation of the real thing a mecha one just has to come out

[@theguywiththeface92]

I heard they fixed the wing issue. That is why now if you look at the figure its box looks different than yours

[@MegidramonX]

In a way, the Center head's neck coming off COULD come in handy if you wanted to re-create the scene from GvsGK where Godzilla blasts Ghidorah's center head off. Would be even cooler if people could/would do some full-length fights with these figures in Stop Motion. XD Definitely something I want to try if I get enough figures. I hope they also do Mecha King Ghidorah and Final Wars Gigan. :3

[@KasketDreadful]

This will probs be the next one I get, just ordered little Godzilla and King Kong, I really need more villains!

[@KasketDreadful]

My SpaceGodzilla figure has the end of his tail fall off as soon as I got it, I just end up super gluing it XD will do that same if the wings break off Ghidorah when I get him :]

[@mathiasmorqubus]

If you do not mind me asking who do you import from? The place i use will not get this in till December. Thanks fantastic review.

[@FourKaiju]

So the wings wont break as long as you keep your hands off of theme right?

though i don't have an SH Monster Arts figure.

This is amazing! now i want to collect these figures thanks to you, I love your videos, I love the figures and you yourself are awesome, i have seen the film godzilla vs. king ghidorah it is a great film, love the video and your just awesome thanks for making your videos

[@Aura17]

Ehmm.. I think the middle head is supposed to come off. My supporting reasons: 1. When you showed the ball join, it was colored redish I believe, and not just a random color. 2. In the movie, His middle head was destroyed by godzilla I believe. I have only seen it A LONG time ago, some i'm going off of how MKG is, with the robo head and all. Though having the head off in the package is not good.

[@ScorpioCesar]

Very neat, very cool and absolutely fantastic!

[@MrGravyfries]

i hope i get mine soon i ordered it from simply toyz yesterday.

[@kingseeker_nicc17]

So how much would these actually cost. I'd think a ton since it's so detailed and movable

[@strikerevimus]

Freaky, that's the issue I was referring to with my figure, the left wing is so loose that it sags, same side. Mine probably worse than yours, but yeah. I guess we all know now that left wing sag is another QC issue. Very sad, as I too love the figure, especially since he's my third fave Kaiju, After MechaGodzilla, and Godzilla himself at first spot. But yeah, here's hoping for a good quality reissue.

[@MrGravyfries]

what did you do to it to cause it to break, remember move the wings at the base gently

[@CobraScarlett95]

I think it's kinda cool that the head is kinda disconnected so you can recreate the scene where Godzilla blows his head off with his atomic ray.

[@GamePro61]

Do you think I should get godzilla or burning godzilla first

[@23mervman]

if king ghidora had arms he would be a fucking beast..he already is but still

[@godzillagaming3929]

Actually, i regret what i said earlier. I had a serious tempation to order this figure, and when i did, it was a amazing! I dont ,ind the wing issue at all, and my Ghidorah's middle head actually stayed on

[@philduchene7833]

the mouth of this figure also comes off easily. takes about 20 minutes to get beam effects situated the right way, but the figure does look spectacular once put together.

[@gumwars850]

Just waiting for them to make a gigan and mechagodizlla 3 one. They are my favorite Kaiju besides godzilla

[@DirektorSplennic]

I have ghidorah and his wings fell off but my dad fixed them and now they are better than before

[@batso8]

Hey DiegoDoom, how are ya? I just wanted to let you know that I read on some website that S.H. Monsterarts mentioned that they would like to do other type of monsters from other movies. Thus, they have "a lot on their plate" when it comes to Godzilla. Hmmm, could we see a lot more Godzilla and other Godzilla monsters to come? Oh, there's a Biollante on the way too. Looks awesome!! :-)

[@brickomationfilms]

I think that the middle head is supposed to come off more easily than the others because in the movie Godzilla actually does tear off King Ghidorah's central head.

[@koemi5411]

where you buy the s.h. monsterarts King ghidorah?in amazon are $425.00.

[@Gangster_and_a_Goddess]

Do the reports of the wings snapping occur when taking out of the box as well?

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching! When King Ghidorah was first released there were reports of that happening. I have not head of that issue since the initial release.

You are telling me. Maybe if they do the Showa one.

[@ernieramirez3980]

I saw this figure at a comic book store with more sh monsterarts and this big beast cost $200.00 I was shocked so just saving up for the buring godzilla since I have mechagodzilla and the first godzilla. :-)

[@BrodasaurusRex1492]

I think that middle head coming of is meant to replact that scene were Godzilla blows of king ghidorah’s middle head in the movie

[@titanosaurusblood4598]

i forsee a mecha accessory set in the near future.

[@archkyoji126]

Is this figure like some of the other monster arts figures where only the initial release has the accessories? I was a bit disappointed when I bought my Godzilla figure and it had no breath attack. But it is still a badass figure.

[@GingrJezus]

Will you be reviewing the Mecha- King Ghidorah figure as well?

[@joesSONICBOOM]

reason why the middle head keeps on popping off because in the film godzilla vs. king ghidorah, godzilla fires his atomic beam at ghidorah's middle head off then after that near the end of the film they replace the missing head with a robotic head into the character mecha king ghidorah.

[@DemOnicxFEAR]
