My son's collection of SHS and the Star Wars equivalent go with him whenever we travel, he comes to work with me, is at grandma's, etc. Great toys, no tiny weapons to lose, and they rarely break (other than at swiveling wrists on a couple of Jedi). A perfect investment for the young one.

Ryan - the SHS toys are also my son's favorite toys to bring along on trips. We also used to carry his Disney cars collection but he has over a hundred of them, so it's too cumbersome now. Speaking of the SHS toys, other than ebay, is there a good spot where you can buy some of the older ones online for a reasonable cost?

Wendigo will be much less blue in it's final incarnation. Mostly white white grey blue shading.

Should Wasp be on a coin as well? Maybe her and Hank are hanging out near a change machine?

How tall is that Godzilla & how much in US currency? *** 31 centimeters tall (around 10 inches) and an estimated $128.50 [HLJ Link] Unfortunately, HLJ's stock sold out really quickly, which seems to be the same story with the other importers (X-Plus' vinyl figures are considered to be the "gold standard" by daikaiju fans). There's a one on eBay already, but at about a $100 more than what I got mine for... X-Plus is also releasing a Godzilla 1964 (Vs. The Thing version) and Baragon (Frankenstein Conquers the World), but as you can see, HLJ has maxed out it's pre-orders already... Still plenty of Ultra-Man series figures available though [Link]

Two posts by Randy Bowen and they are ignored? I hope that's just because we've all been controlling ourselves to not burst out with, "RANDY! Make Capt. Fonebone!!" I know I am not going to mention a full-size Guardian statue at all.

I didn't ignore Randy. I emailed my response to his question directly to him!

Unfortunately, that X-Plus Goa/Rodak seems to be the only left at HLJ. X-Plus released quite a few Toho monster figures just in the past couple of months, and if you didn't get a chance to pre-order them first, they were gone on release day (I'm guessing they might be available at some speciality shops in Japan).

I had been sort of peripherially interested in the "Ben 10" stuff. I finally caught some of the show one evening and was surprised at how it's basically an updated "Dial H for Hero" concept. Love the animation. The designs on the different aliens is quite good. I saw this dude and picked him up cheaply. Four inches. "Rath."
