There was very little to share for the Godzilla line from Bandai at this year’s SDCC 2013. The Legendary Godzilla was never revealed unfortunately. But here are images from the display case.

Sunday was the final day of SDCC 2013 so there wasn’t much to do. We did run in to a very well done cosplay of the White Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Nothing major of note, but you can get an idea of what you run in to while walking the convention floor.
Check out the offerings from Papercutz, who teased us with their upcoming Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Graphic Novel.
NOTE: Bandai had a covered figure in the Godzilla case that said “Legendary Godzilla”. It was never pulled off and Bandai stated they could not show it at the show after all.

The WB and Legendary Pictures panel/screening has just wrapped at SDCC 2013 and we have some serious news regarding the Godzilla 2014 film! Luke Y. Thompson of Topless Robot attended the screening and had this to say in regards to the Godzilla footage shown:
Roll teaser. Looks like they’re playing up the nuclear aspect – lots of radiation suits, scared reaction shots, helicopters attacking…a giant spider monster thing? (Think the Acklay from Attack of the Clones). Then the giant foot comes into screen – Godzilla is ready to fight this sumbitch! We don’t see his face, but the body looks just like the familiar one we all know. The battle is at night, though, so it’s hard to judge if he’s more green or gray.
So we’ve now got confirmation of at least one other monster, possibly more than one, for the film! Filming just wrapped up 2 days ago but it sounds like the movie is really shaping up and based on audience applause we won’t be disappointed. We’ll keep you posted as more information becomes available!

Tokunation is at San Diego Comic-Con 2013! And when we said we’d be on the show floor before anyone else we meant it! Our show team is already at the convention center and news has just started coming in.
Straight from Kickback himself we have confirmation that a set of the core 5 Kyoryu Sentai Zyurangers / Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers S.H.Figuarts are on display!! Bandai Tamashii and Bluefin have both begun releasing these figure in Japan and the US respectively. Dragon/Green Ranger & Tyranno/Red Ranger are only just seeing release with Pterra/Pink Ranger confirmed as a web exclusive in Japan this fall and a US retail release as well.
This is the first time the core 5 Zyurangers/Power Rangers have been shown on display together and confirms their future releases! Each of course includes their signature weapons. It’s currently unconfirmed however, due to a no photo policy for the night, whether or not the US release of Tiger/Yellow Ranger will include an alternate skirt accessory for MMPR fans. And for any users in attendance a friendly heads up that the US release for S.H. Figuarts Red & Green Rangers are being sold at the Bluefin booth, #3545!
