It now makes sense why Playmates will no longer be producing figures for their "Classic Godzilla" line. Bandai has returned!
In 2001, Bandai Japan started a line known as the Movie Monster Series. Even though it went on hiatus in 2007, the release of the 2014 Godzilla film revived it. In the last 9 years it has been Bandai's soft vinyl staple for the Godzilla and kaiju toyline--releasing multiple figures of both old and new monsters/iterations every year!
Today, Bandai announced the Movie Monster Series would be making its American debut this year! Check out the first line-up coming this September!
Figures will be available September 30th, 2023 and are available for pre-order from Amazon. Here are the individual links for their Amazon pre-orders:
King Ghidorah 2019
Millennium Godzilla
Godzilla 2019
Hedorah 2004
MechaGodzilla (Heavily Armed) 2003
