That's awesome!! Let us know how you enjoy it when it arrives!!

All modern X-Plus figures do not have any articulation in any form. Buying X-Plus to me is understanding there is no articulation within the figure but the paint, mold, and sculpting are aiming to be to extreme accuracy to the suit/model. I hope my comment is of good help!

I’m always satisfied with the pose they come with. This is a hot take, but I really don’t like the joints on articulated figures anyways so this works for me. They’re gorgeous when you get em in hand too. Just my two cents.

I picked mine up at the Shonen Ric website and totaled out at roughly $260. The Shonen Ric website is the direct spot to order the Ric Boy exclusive figures and while they offer a North American shop, they ship from Japan. I hope my response is of good help!!

That sounds awesome! I love the deforeals for their unique style while also staying true to the design of the suit/model which makes them really nice collectors pieces!!

Hello!!

Thank you for commenting, I personally don't have an Instagram but I have a Twitter :)

I got you!

@@luigiwaluigi97657thank you𖤍

Thank you for the kind words! Honestly it might be harder/expensive to find the Ric only because after the initial sales on the website, they don't usually reprint them for some time. If I were to purchase it second hand, I would try my luck with Mandarake Japan, Mercari Japan, and Facebook Xplus collector groups. I hope I was of some help!

Hey I hope all is well! I was online figure hunting and noticed that AwesomeCollector still has the Ric Boy for sale if you're still looking.

Thank you!

Absolutely!!

That's still awesome!!

@@luigiwaluigi97657 Yes it is 😉

I couldn't agree more!!

Honestly I don't remember exactly how I did it but I recall letting it sit in the sun so the mold would soften, adjust the position of the wing to recenter, bring it inside so that the "cooling" air would set it in the new position and would repeat the steps if it didn't come the way I liked. Patience is a virtue with stuff like this but if you have a hair dryer that blows hot and cold air I'm sure it's a lot faster than my method.

I had to order this one off of eBay third hand. Definitely not my place to buy figures but this release was extremely limited and I spent hours looking for other solutions but I couldn't find any other spot :( One of the rare scenarios where I bit the bullet and paid after market price at around $150.

Ouf! Fair enough, it really is rare! I commend you though; this figure is really elusive and, like you said in your full review, you've managed to document its existence. :)

My apologies, CZcams didn't notify me on this response :( Thank you for you kind words and continued support of the channel!! I appreciate you so much :)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words!!

I completely agree with you. I love the belt design and function but it really is missing that purple light in the transformation sequence and it would've been perfect. Thank you for commenting!!

I don't own the 91' so I can't say full judgement but both the 54, especially with the new special version coming out, and the 72' figures are both really well done! Your choice but if you don't have a 54' Godzilla, I'd say go with that!!

@@luigiwaluigi97657 Thanks!

Thanks ❤❤❤❤

I bought this back back in 2019 from the US Shonen Ric website for roughly $600 after shipping.

Both of them would look really nice next to one another!

Thank you so much!!

That's awesome!

Thank you for helping me out! The booklet is awesome and the entire set is just as amazing as well!!

Awesome!!

Absolutely! I wonder if they're doing a subtle reference to Shimo or just designers choice. It definitely reminds me of the Godzilla 2002 theater exclsuive!!

Reminds me of Shimo

Thank you!!

The white and blue just pops so well! Thank you for the kind words!!

Thank you for watching!

I don't know many Malaysia Toku stores but I purchased mine from Hobby Genki. Based off small research, they and Tokullectibles have it in stock but shipping prices can increase putting it past $50. I purchased mine for roughly $60 so if you can get it for $50 than that sounds really good.

The figure isn't extremely squishy but you can put some pressure on it and see it dent in as if it were squishy but it will revert back after you take off pressure.

The figure doesn't weigh more than 2 pounds and I wouldn't say that it feels cheap. It feels firm with nice vinyl density to be not heavy but not too light.

Thank you for the kind words! The US Gozilla store is definitely a blessing for collectors after all these years and Hedorah rocks!

Yes!! We have every suit inbetween and all we're missing is the 74. Hopefully for its 50th anniversary we'll get one!!

It's definitely a very solid pick up in my honest opinion. Let us know if you are able to get it!!

Thank you for the kind words!!

@@luigiwaluigi97657 your welcome

Thank you for the kind words!! Yes I have seen the new SHMA Godzilla Evolved and I am thoroughly impressed with the sculpt and paint applications! I'm really hoping the final product is 1:1 with the promo images we've seen because it looks absolutely stellar!!! What do you think??

@@luigiwaluigi97657 no problem! I think that the sculpt is incredible for what they’ve been doing recently, and if it’s as good as it looks I’m no doubt gonna buy it 🤩

Absolutely. We'll just have to wait and see!!

Yes! Finally being able to obtain the older Heisei figures affordably has been a huge plus. This is just me personally speaking but I would go with either the reissued Spacegodzilla or Mechagodzilla/Fire Rodan because they have gotten reissues in the past and when they're gone, they go up pretty high in price. My only counterargument is that both the MKG and 91 would go really nice together. Realistically speaking, choose the monster that you love most! Hard decisions around the board but let us know what you end up choosing!!

@@luigiwaluigi97657 I do work but I don’t make much and the SHMA Godzilla 1991 figure is basically the only figure that I could afford as it’s only $100, SpaceGodzilla being $150 and the MechaGodzilla and Fire Rodan being $250. I only have the Burning and the 2021 Godzilla figure but I’m looking to get a SHMA Godzilla figure without any additional paint jobs. The 1991 Godzilla figure so far would be the best interest in buying because of its price, I would just have to get a huge paycheck to buy the SpaceGodzilla or the MG and Fire Rodan figures.

My apologies as youtube didn't send me a notification for the response. I can't speak for how good the 91 figure is but I'd assume it was a solid release similarly to the 89 suit and heisei monsters that have been put out recently. All really solid picks! Let us know what you go for!!

@@luigiwaluigi97657 i gotta say: I’ve worked quite a lot and I could be making more than I usually do, it could depend on how much I get and I’ll probably SpaceGodzilla or MechaGodzilla and Rodan, if not enough then I’ll just buy Godzilla 1991

Bandai has been doing really good recently, it's really nice to see. Nice pick-ups!! All of those figures rock as well as the 64! Let us know when you get it!!

@@luigiwaluigi97657 yea I reviewed those. Just ordered the new Godzilla and Kong 2024. Should be reviewing those soon. Gonna get the 64 from Agin Toys. All good pickups for sure!

I am looking forward to it all!!

Right on!!

Hmm, personally I'd be surprised to see this figure get the bootleg treatment this fast but it's always a possibility. It ultimately depends from where it was ordered from as well. There's always a chance as you said that it could have been a manufacture error and in that case maybe it could be possible to ask for a replacement? I hope all works out.

Thank you for the kind words!!
