Check out images of this fiery Comic Con Explosion Godzilla after the jump!

In my best Eric Cartman voice ''SWEET''
And from the pose of that second picture it looks like this godzilla figure will have the same improved articulation like Space Godzilla has. (YAY!)

It doesn't look that bad, but man he's brightly colored and I agree with Gojira that the articulation on this one is alot better.

Wow, that thing looks gorgeous! Since I won't have the money or space needed to get a hold of the Final Premium anytime soon, this baby will definitely do.

So wait, this has better articulation than the 1st Godzilla from Monster-Arts? I don't own any of these yet, so how can we tell/know? What is different/new?

Looks like Godzilla could use some Pepto-bismal .

I could be wrong.
But from the look of the middle picture it looks like This godzilla Has a better range of motion in the legs.
I'll try and see if I can't get my Godzilla figure in the same pose.

he looks like a creamscicle, i want to eat him

Critical mass radiation, yum .

I attempted to pose my MA Godzilla compared to the SDCC version:





I'll assume this will be the same mold without any real tweaking, since I was able to pull off the pose. Regardless, I'm getting it anyway!
