Official Monster Name!!! And Official Godzilla 2014 Toys!!!

There won't be any pics until WB and Legendary give the okay. Anyways, what the hell were they thinking, naming a monster Muto? I mean, that doesn't sound threatening at all. "Oh here comes Muto!"

The important thing is that we now know more info, especially about the toys. They all sound epic! And Muto isn't that bad of a name really. Not much better than "Gigan" or "Kumonga". Just saying...

Anyways... HOLY SHIT! YES! NEW NEWS! THANK YOU, Instinctive Gigan!

Yeah, and it might even just be a false name, to keep too much information being leaked.

Why is Muto measuring 3.5 feet? That's a bit large for some figures isn't it? But then again, it's a hundred bucks.

These are like hardcore collectors items. I got dibs on the "Attack and Roar Godzilla figure". Hellz yeah.

"Muto" is a fairly common Japanese surname. It's possible the monster is named after a Japanese character who founded the creature in the movie. (Perhaps Ken Watanabe's character? I don't know. It's just conjecture.) Also if you [url=http://www.urban-collector.com/godzilla-2014-movie-deluxe-attack-roar-action-figure-asst-nov131921.html]go to this web page[/url], and read the description, it [b]confirms Godzilla has his atomic blast[/b].

ahh, maybe I feel bummed out that it's "pre sold out".

What the hell is up with these measurements? Am I just reading them wrong? How the hell do you fit a 10 ft tall Godzilla through a door?

I think it's pretty safe to say it's inches, not feet.

It's in inches, that also explains the supposed 3.5 ft Mutos. It's 3.5 inches. So the Godzilla figure you're talking about is 10 inches tall. Awesome.

I'm pretty sure that Ken Watanabe is John Serizawa... His character is lacking a surname in the casting credits available. Watanabe is John (surname).. But maybe he's going to be Muto. I dunno, would be interesting.

We don't know for sure who Watanabe is playing. The Serizawa talk are nothing more than rumors started by imbd. Anyone can change information on imdb.com.

It has an apostrophe, not a quotation mark. I mean, I haven't done much measuring for a year or two, so maybe I'm wrong- But I am pretty sure an apostrophe means foot, while quotations mean inches.

Yeah, I know your right. I feel stupid, but I can admit it. But John is the character name, according to Wikipedia.

In most circles, yes. But, c'mon, use common sense. A 10 foot Godzilla toy? Chances are it's just a minor typo. When it comes out next spring I can guarantee you, 110%, it will be 10 inches tall. Not taller than a basketball player.

I also found chibi figures for the movie. It says "the Mutos." meaning, there's going to be more than one of the bastards.

Wikipedia can also be changed by anyone and, more importantly, it doesn't list a source from which that character name came from.

Hey, I'll be laughing my ass off when you people get a ten foot tall Godzilla shoved in your mailbox come March 2014.

Yeah, but usually the good people of the internet fix things that people mess around with on wikipedia... Though, I'm probably wrong. As always.

Anyways, there doesn't seem to be anything about the third monster. Mutos, now that I know that there are more than one Muto, I think it might be short for Mutants, or something to do with the word Mutant.

Great finds guys! Thanks so much for posting this up! I've made a post on the homepage about it and linked back to this topic to encourage more discussion here. Great work!

Looks like we might be seeing two versions of [b]Muto[/b]. After reading more on the [i]Urban-Collector[/i] website, I found another set of toys which reveal some more about the new Monster - potentially. Here's the product excerpt: [b]Godzilla 2014 Movie Chibi Figure 2-Pack Asst pre-order[/b] [i]Godzilla 2014 Movie Chibi Figure 2-Pack Asst is an Urban Collector pre-order. Godzilla and the Mutos take on an anime-style look as these highly collectible chibi-style figures! Two different 2-Packs available, each with Godzilla in a different pose, and [b]both Mutos[/b]. Window box packaging.[/i] - [url=http://www.urban-collector.com/godzilla-2014-movie-chibi-figure-2-pack-asst-nov131919.html]Source[/url] "[i]Both Mutos[/i]" ???

Wow this is a surprise indeed.

Yeah, totally beat me to the punch Chris. I don't believe Muto is the NAME of the monster, so much as the name of the type of monster. Possibly an abbreviation of mutant or mutation. Like Pacific Rim had a Kaiju called Knifehead. Godzilla 2014 will have a Muto called.....TBD. There being multiple Mutos, I really hope they are different kinds, and not something silly, like a large swarm of the same kind like we saw in Godzilla vs Megagarius. Anyways, just my 2 cents.
