under Godzilla

Numerous reports have come in just in the last 2 weeks that Godzilla 2014 toys are finally hitting store shelves ahead of the films May 16th release date. As it happens I wound up being one of the lucky people to stumble across an Atomic Roar Godzilla today!

This figure of course features the iconic roar and Atomic Breath of the king of monsters. Though it may seem like a simple figure at first glance, it does a great job of conveying the detail of this new iteration of Godzilla. And honestly it’s a great and affordable representation of the character. For it’s price point it’s definitely worth a look.

Check out the entire gallery of the figure, and a short video of it’s electronic feature, by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post!

under Godzilla

Last week reports started to trickle in of Godzilla 2014 toy product making it to store shelves across the country. IDW’s Chris Mowry teased us with what he found at retail too. Well it seems for everyone else the wait is finally over! ToyArk member Trivial Psychic stumbled across the gargantuan Jakks 24″ Godzilla figure at his local Toys ‘R’ Us and was kind enough to share images of the beast!

Standing tall at a whopping 24″ this behemoth is also 40″ long from snout to tail! Trivial Pshychic has some articulation details listed after the jump. Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to see what the big guy can really do. Thanks to sister site ToyArk for the tip.

Cross one more off the list for Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger! 

S.H. Figuarts Mammoth Ranger was just released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. But don’t let that stop you from getting him! The Bluefin release of this figure will be out next month as the Mighty Morphin Black Ranger.

This  of course awesome figure goes perfectly with the 4 previous Zyuranger releases. Mammoth Ranger is another excellent addition to the line though the accessories included are  a bit odd. He’s got the standard extra hands, Ranger Stick, & Thunder  Slinger. The other Zyuranger weapons included are remolded from their past (and upcoming) releases. They’re meant to combine into the Howling Cannon (Power Blaster). But that also means the  Mammoth Breaker included isn’t quite accurate, read on to find out why.

And the included DX Shield Ressha can be used to equip your DX ToQ Oh with, you guessed it, a  shield! But is this set really worth it for what you get? Enough bang for your buck?

You decide after checking out our full gallery. Simply click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to let us know what you think! We’ll be back later this week with galleries & reviews of the DX ToQ Blaster & DX ToQ Changer!
