    Interesting sculpt. Can't wait until HS puts up a picture in size comparison with the Gorilla-Ju.

    It might just be the shadows in this pic, but the shape of the head reminds me of the 1998 Godzilla. You know, the one with Matthew Broderick.

    Just not my thing. It looks like a super deformed version of a tyrannosaurus rex. For me totally meh.

    Come on Mark you know we have complete opposite tastes in most vinyls ;)

    I think you're right...unless the Gorilla in this pic is sitting down or something.

    I like it but I think it would've looked a lot better had it been done in a retro-vintage style. It's deformed in a modern fisher price way where if it was deformed in a vintage kaiju way like the Gorilla Ju, it really would be of a better match. I still want one really bad though.

    That's what I wanted to say but didn't have the words. Especially the Fisher Price comment. I'll wait to see one all out though to REALLY judge. Could still end up impressing me a lot more.

    It looks almost exactly like this Imaginext T-Rex I just bought my boy. Right down to the over sized toenails.

    +1

    I've been living under the assumption that these toys were sold in shop somewhere in Japan. Any help is appreciated.

    Edit: Thanks for the help! :D
