S.H.MonsterArts Shin Godzilla (シン・ゴジラ) Review

[@KingofMilktea]

the day that DiegoDoom sounds depressed and disappointed, is the day I never wanted to see.....

[@GojiBoiEarth1964]

heheh316 look at his voice back in 2012

[@brigadejalapeno6120]

Yeah. Checkout his review on spacegodzilla. You can really hear the tired, sad effects.

[@codyvansise9406]

well thats vary nice of you

[@abrahamzuniga9786]

[@AvirajSingh-k9m]

I know man he needs a break😊

[@GojiBoiEarth1964]

Gumzilla: I’m the worst shin Godzilla figure in existence Playmate shin: *allow me to introduce my self*

[@Epic_1YT]

Playmates Spacegodzilla: hold my G-cells

[@MattSayYay]

Gumzilla: It's almost as if I don't have any teeth Playmates: It's almost as if I only have teeth

[@Burrvev247]

It's funny how "Shin Gumzilla" has the teeth perfectly sculpted and on the other Shin Godzilla isn't

[@GojiBoiEarth1964]

Who’s should be a better meme Shin gumzilla Or Kamata kun

[@DiegoDoom]

Gumzilla

[@snas_creature]

gUmZilLa

[@GojiBoiEarth1964]

Oh wait, I forgot about Kevin

[@primus0348]

Gumzilla XD

[@MxThrIl]

Shin gumzilla

[@Dusenflugzeug]

I so glad my figure looks nice. All of the teeth are painted good, and there’s a perfect amount of red in all of the scars of shins skin. I was so surprised on how big this figure was! Awesome review!

[@JodiBaskoro]

awww man.. didn't expect to have this quality from SH Monsterarts :(

[@FreshVinylReviews]

Your Shin Gumzilla is the really the biggest issue I have seen thus far. Great review. Covered everything. I love mine. Glad I didn't really pay much attention to what others were saying before I did my review because I kinda wanna go back and do a second look at this release, not so much at mine but the release in general. But I'm glad I did my review before hearing the criticism because I gave mine a fair assessment based on my own opinion. Apparently an opinion don't count for anything because some people like to shit on others for liking this. The only thing I could critique about mine is the paint is glossy. I didn't even think about it until one of my buddies saw mine in person and then I was like "oh yea, it IS really glossy". Other than that, I love mine. But, you make a lot of great points so it's give me another side of the spectrum to think about. Bam!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support Rich! That is one of the reasons it took me so long to make this review once I got my figures. At first I was too easy and then I felt like I was too harsh. I stepped away from the figure for a day or two and came back with a fair mind. I like the figure, but I don't love it because of the paint apps. I'm sure they will fix it with a repaint.

[@elinlaraable]

Ryan James no you little six year old he won't give it away for a little Whiney kid

[@Vincent19763]

Ryan James ukyyugofyuk

[@redreploid1713]

Ryan James wow now i know why you are so stupid Look kid if you don't have money to buy the figure try getting something more cheap because he isn't gonna give his Godzilla to you Grow up bro the world doesn't spin around you Also you say you're nine but you are acting like a 3 year old kid

[@redreploid1713]

Ryan James 1st you have a terrible grammar im not even American and i speak English better 2nd you are the only one crying here telling me to fuck off and honestly im not getting offended 3rd im not trying to be anyone's boss where did you get that?

[@mathiasmorqubus]

Poor Shin-Givitis.

[@joshuas.g.g.4951]

Only reason I'd want to get this is if I could actually paint over it myself, or if I knew anyone who could. There've been some glorious repaints of this figure that truly bring out its high level of detail with a balance of blackened skin and actually red muscle fibers. But as is, it's an easy pass.

[@Cenazinosaur04]

S.H. MonsterArts, you've screwed up on this one BIG time. DiegoDoom said "nice release" instead of "another fantastic release"...

[@gunzilla6389]

That's when they should know they're losing their touch.

[@joezanedwards1620]

I am still getting this figure because its a nice Godzilla

[@Ahmad-ll8rl]

oh my god the sculpting is just beautifull hurry up jobby you need to review this one

[@elsharef.o]

Fantastic review! I love how in depth you went with this figure. It will certainly help me in my decision on wether or not I will pick this guy up. Thanks so much!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@Xjp190]

This guy is luck based, you can either get gold or shit!

[@NDGOJIGAMING]

Or golden shit.

[@Xjp190]

Damian Cossetto You mean the exclusive releases for the repaint to go along with the DVD

[@superzilla2000]

I've heard alot of ppl complain about this figure mostly because it looks nothing like the prototype, the thing is no figure will ever look as good as their prototypes because toy companies take more time on the prototypes and they actually hand paint them. I was lucky to get one that doesn't fall apart and has a very good paint application. I give this figure a 10/10.

[@izzarchron]

the best S.H Monsterarts shin godzilla review at the moment! Thanks Diego!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! I sincerely appreciate your comment!

[@TheAdaoo7]

7:44 20 years after end of evangelion and hideaki anno still cant resist the urge for some good female genetalial imagery

[@lukedepaolo654]

Nice review! The figure you got actually has pretty good paint compared to other ones

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@shodai2054]

One thing to note: I thought Bandai made this figure with a reddish plastic and did a *blackwash* to him; a huge inaccuracy on Bandai's part. P.S. Good thing you bought two--you could've ended up with only a Shin Gumzilla!

[@MxThrIl]

I’m in love with the model

[@Gamerafighter76]

I really hope the repaint doesn't let us down as much as this one did; I'm waiting till the repaint to get this figure.

[@snas_creature]

Gamerafighter76 at least I have the good quality with this figure. Eyes looking in same direction, the red paint is on his body and no paint chipping or gaps

[@HomingFung]

Thanks. I'd waited for the eventual Special Colour Edition with the glowing violet purple effects.

[@spicyguyofspice4106]

they will probably do a "spitfire" version so that they can fix the paint, sculpt and articulation issues and give us several effects such as the atomic laser beam so that they can make even more money

[@jasonvoorheesthethird]

Im one of the few that got a 100% perfect Shin Godzilla...i love it so much, it looks absolutely amazing aside my other SH Monsterarts! Its unacceptable from them to sell such a bad quality figures though, i wish everyone had a perfect figure like mine, because im telling you, this figure is seriously amazing when you dont have those QC problems

[@spee9dy457]

I have my hopes for a Shin Godzilla repaint. Love the review.

[@DiegoDoom]

Me too! Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@dianabudijono2002]

The paint is definitely what detracts from the figure

[@Orieus]

Wow Bandi nailed it......amazing likeness....Great reviews as always man, enjoy watching them!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@robpaterson4512]

It’s actually really good that the pupils are a bit goofy because he has not eye lids and he can move his eyes and the eyes had one looking somewhere and the other looking somewhere else

[@michaelanims9030]

The only thing I'm not happy with is the glossyness for the paint everything else is fantastic!

[@TheOrcaBoss]

the good thing is that NECA is releasing their own Shin Godzilla figure, thats what im getting since i cant afford this figure

[@hjjkirsxwwbbird]

when you said it was a nice film I was like 😨 what....just..... what. great review as always, I love your sh monsterarts reviews

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@papaswizz2571]

I flipping love your reviews, keep the amazing work up! 👍

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@Shamus1019]

I was just thinking, "I wonder if Diego posted shma 2016 yet?" When I saw this

[@Kurotitan7125]

in all honesty, I think the only thing I can complain about Is the prices for it. otherwise this is one awesome addition to the MonsterArts line, Next we gotta go with Kamata Kun and Shinagawa Kun.

[@thewyvernripper]

I'm just gonna wait for the Neca version.

[@hdunn8589]

This is a great review it helped me a lot!!!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! I'm glad my review was helpful

[@callirhoeos]

DiegoDoom Very Helpful!

[@crisrama5122]

xD

[@lavax2820]

When you said 'Super LONG and heavy'I was laughing

[@awesomeproductions7755]

Dude, you should totally do a stop motion parody of the trailers called "Shin Gumzilla"!

[@DiegoDoom]

That is a fantastic idea!

[@awesomeproductions7755]

By the way Diego, what monsters from the Godzilla franchise would you personally like to see in MonsterArts form?

[@freddiecel]

Good review and thanks for the heads up,

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@abominations]

Great review as always. I'll probably wait for the neca Shin Godzilla though.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@muisverriet]

Heh, not even the ever-enthousiastic DiegoDoom can excuse the shoddy paint apps on this figure. This is sculpt-wise one of the best SH Monsterarts, but quality and paint-wise, this guy is easily one of the worst.

[@dangojisan8173]

WHAT SITE OR PLACE SELLS THAT FIGURE FOR $86!?

[@trusty6625]

Monsterarts are normally cheapest when preorders first open, or when in the preorder sate in general. AmiAmi had Shin for $85 when it was up fro preorder.

[@dangojisan8173]

Trusty ™ Darn... thanks.

[@thefatman69dude]

Good luck getting it for a reasonable price now lol

[@tracilombardi5000]

Because of the prices now it's super lucky it's $86

[@Vincent19763]

Low Tier I got sh monsterarts burning Godzilla for &50

[@nathanbyington2432]

May be some flaws but a must buy for a collector like myself👌🏻

[@muisverriet]

Nathan Byington Far from a must-buy.

[@dkillryt]

Nathan Byington I’m planning to buy it and Mecha King Ghidorah

[@LeonardoGonzalez-my3ip]

great review. i love my figure but the paint job was ass! so i painted it with some flat tamiyas and BAM!!! fixed!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! That is cool you were able to repaint your Shin.

[@BrandAsauresRex]

Great job on the review! You really went into great detail to show off the defective figure. I think the gumzilla you got is one of the worst shin figure ive seen

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@thelostknifestudios8754]

u do the best figure reviews man. great job.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@ethanellis2896]

very great review! especially with the size comparison. top notch sir

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@Dinodiggity]

Great feedback, man. I preordered the new re-release, so hopefully that comes with fewer flaws.

[@ItalianTony86]

You could fix that mid section on the tail but getting some rubber gloves, and cut them to fit around the ball joint and it should make it really resistant to movement and probably keep it from coming out so easily.

[@Magikknight76]

Great review brother!!! I just bought the movie on Blue Ray and it has really reignited my passion for Godzilla and Kaiju movies in general. I absolutely love the look of Shin Godzilla and have to,get this figure. I currently have the Neca version but I really want the Monster Arts offering. I just currently can't afford the damn scalper prices he's going for. BTW if you ever want to sell your crappy version for a fair price let me know. I don't care that it isn't perfect and it would give me a representation of a figure I love and I know the money would be going back into the hobby I love and respect. Not to mention generating more videos I love to watch. Thanks for the review and keep up the great work brother...

[@DiegoDoom]

+Toy Man 1976 Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my Shin Gumzilla just yet.

[@MagicDragonKatt]

Paint job on this figure the literal interpretation of "shit his the fan". Had I chose to buy this figure, I would need to repaint it myself. I like this figure otherwise, but there are still a number of problems with accurate anatomy. However, Shin Godzilla must have the most complicated anatomy of any kaiju, so I would imagine it would take the master of master sculptors to deliver us a faithful representation.

[@lourdestimbang]

Good. Figure actualy i will buy that fig cool👍but the gaps😕 i like the paint and sculpt graet review 😎$

[@DiegoDoom]

+Ma. Lourdes Timbang Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@deadaccount5238]

I wish I have all four Godzilla (ShodaiGoji,LegendaryGoji,ShinGoji and Godzilla Earth) S.H MonsterArts Figure

[@fearangel014]

It's a pretty cool figure... Not 100% accurate but it's the only posable fig of Shin Goji so it's the best we have. I wish the lower jaw can split in half tho, like in the movie. I do understand that by having that may be a fragility issue. Great review by the way.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@jackganimations]

I really don't care about paint. I mostly buy SHMA figures just to pose and I never identify paint aps. Yeah it's a problem but I still love this figure just because it's so big and bulky and it's tail is so long and detailed.

[@GHOST11656]

I really want to see a orga figure made that be cool and a proper Godzilla 2000 figure

[@fahrigonzo]

Nice and thorough review, man! I personally think it's perfectly fine to have such bizarre different looking eyes, cos its like that in the movie and its so Anno-sensei's style to play with weird eyeballs in his creatures. I mean compared to the previous godzillas where it has a certain anger on his face, shin godzilla has no emotion, just a mindless horrific looking giant destroying tokyo with his spine chiller smile. Truly the best godzilla imho. Cheers!

[@fahrigonzo]

Also they should have thrown in the nuke breath head where its lower jaw is splitting!

[@andrewdurfee8629]

Diego doom that is not a bad figure but the other one is not a good one but the other one is a great one to have in your Godzilla collection

[@ggG-tz5km]

Im so jealous right now Love your vids

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@jacobgilley8931]

#PrayforRepaint (for once)

[@actuallynem]

Jacob G. Just paint it yourself

[@muisverriet]

RED GUY We shouldn't have to.

[@goji-woji1584]

Jarmo Verriet especially with the money we spent on this

[@tonyferguson3675]

I approve this message

[@CJ-xg2nm]

They should sell paint to the buyers incase of these incidents so they can correct these flaws until they are fulfilled.

[@Jasonzilla500]

I know the figure has some bad paint job but I really want this

[@TheRandombarguy]

Hopefully i get a good painted one

[@APOL1000]

Thanks for the review.. I think I'll wait for something else or the recolor ver.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@rozogardthespacedragon8292]

I love the poses for shin Godzilla

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@Saiyangoji]

that was so awesome

[@shodai2054]

I got this figure on Christmas! I am also dissatisfied with the paint apps, but luckily I didn't have shin gumzilla

[@DiegoDoom]

Sorry to hear that.

[@luisalcalavillanueva5283]

This Video Is Uploaded In My Birthday!..

[@DiegoDoom]

Happy Birthday!!!!

[@luisalcalavillanueva5283]

DiegoDoom Thank You..

[@garregmachgoji7346]

"shin GUMzilla" LOL

[@vatothabeast]

I got super lucky with mine, his teeth look good, his neck is not nearly as red as most and id say, excluding certain lighting, it looks like it matches. Also, and this is the big one, his eyes aren't googly. They aren't looking forward but both symmetrically look out to the side like his 2nd and 3rd form. So i am super happy with my version but i can definitely see why this figure gets so much hate

[@Goatix1954]

My SH Shin turned out to look good

[@Cybermat47]

I'm not paying $150 AUD plus postage to get a Shin Gumzilla. Definitely waiting for NECA's Shin Godzilla release.

[@NDGOJIGAMING]

Same. I gave up on trying to find this figure for a decent price, and then there's the off chance of having an atrocious paint job. -Damian

[@ericvasquez4332]

Diego Doom theres actually a S.H Monster arts Godzilla second form

[@DiegoDoom]

Yup, they will not be released until March.

[@pcuneo4243]

Hah you said fantastic knew you would :)

[@eeeddddddiiieee]

Insane price point. Sticking with the neca version.

[@ScorpioCesar]

Great review Deigo, that Shin Gumzilla just breaks my heart to pieces. How did that happen?!

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support!

[@DrBachur]

YEAH! THE TAIL HAS A FAAAAAAACE!

[@GreenLanternPrime01]

This is a very informative review. It would be great if we could get a repaint that looks like the Banpresto vinyl as well as a purple highlight variant.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support Darryl! I completely agree!

[@shanefrantz2777]

Great review, I plan on getting this figure mainly for the articulation, and hopefully a somewhat decent paint job. Otherwise I'll be picking up other Shin Godzilla figures(X-Plus, 1st) for my best representation of the design.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! Yup X-Plus all the way.

[@GlassesnMouthplates]

It feels like they were using Shin Gumzilla as a paint test model, but then eventually decided to greenlight it for sale and distribution.

[@prathamanugraha7851]

Hey DiegoDoom! I'd like to buy an Shmonsterarts but what shm is the most worth it at its price. Im thinking of 1954 but what do you think?

[@DiegoDoom]

I would say pick up Godzilla 1995 Rebirth.

[@prathamanugraha7851]

DiegoDoom thanks for the reply! Btw ur videos are very entertaining,the editing and camera work is amazing

[@DiegoDoom]

Thank you very much!

[@randomnesstv7442]

what i mean by that is how much do you think they cost all together

[@overlandlord5965]

The red isn't the wash, its the plastic that's red; the black is actually the wash.

[@jflor163]

I feel like the real reason why some sh monster arts figures have the eyes looking in different directions is becauae the want you to capture the side angles more like in the posters for shin godzilla.

[@muisverriet]

Josias M. Flores No, it's because Bandai is lazy.

[@jflor163]

Jarmo Verriet Are you suuuurrre?

[@lm_8480]

i dont understand how they messed this up more than the sh monster art godzilla 2014 i mean this time they knew how he looked unlike godzilla 2014

[@TheHumanityofpeace999]

You can repain the SHMA Shin with red color cuz Shma shin dont have blood around (exept for back).

[@Pacificgoji94]

Your camera zoomed in so much you can see little fuzzy things lol

[@ADjustinG2013]

The movie was simply fantastic ;)

[@BatsBeyondU]

Man, I've been lovin' these reviews. Really informative! Also. I was wondering if you would ever be interested in doing a Top 10 of the Godzilla/Kaiju figures that you have? I've been thinking about getting into collecting more and knowing some of your favorites might help me get a good idea of where to start.

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and being a long time supporter. I will do a top ten.

[@PyroFTB]

Shin Godzilla is my favorite of all the Godzillas but they really didn't do him any justice with this.

[@Death2cornbread]

amazing review bro 👊🖒and always enjoyed outstanding setups

[@DiegoDoom]

Thanks for Watching and Thanks for the Support! Keep up the fantastic work on your channel too!!!!

[@Dusty-Games]

In what website did you get him for only $86

[@andrewleyton6689]

how do you get the bad version

[@DiegoDoom]

+Andrew Leyton Sometimes you end up with a defective figure.

[@generalwaddles6638]

I had a dream about this godzilla the same exact detail 2 years ago how do I have a dream so far into the future .-.

[@Lokitellus]

Although they have much better figures, I still want this a lot

[@mr.mccracken9034]

They were so lazy with the paint. I agree it should have had vibrant red paint apps exactly like the pictures on the box it came in. Not that dull red under the black all over the place.

[@marcoskain7104]

I loved the movie, but I don't like the design enough to hunt this figure down due to its price.

[@Burrvev247]

I was just wondering where exactly did you get yours to pay $86

[@TheRobotAssassin]

I wanted to buy this figure but I held back because the paint apps are so garbage. This toy desperately needs a renewal version with better paint. Neca's Shin Godzilla got the coloration right. Bandai should be able to do the same.

[@CattyMintgum]

I heard a reissue is coming in January.
