Vote for monsters you'd like to see in 2014 and beyond!

Just got back from Bluefin today. Some great things to come. :-)


  • Vote for upcoming monsters that you would like to see in 2014 and beyond! http://tinyurl.com/tamashii-nations-SHMA2014-VOTE
    • Regarding the poll, Tamashii Nations & Bluefin are in fact following it and will be evaluating it throughout the year. 
    • In addition, I'd like to note that duplicate votes will not be counted, per the polls restrictions. If by some way, duplicate votes have made a way through the polls proxy, they will be deleted.
    • Just because a character has a high rank, doesn't mean it will be made. The poll is not meant to find winner, just what's relevant now.
    • Please only vote for monsters you want to actually buy, don't boost counts!
  • Tamashii Nations is aware of the requests for Bagan, and now, Super Godzilla. They are officially inquiring about the characters. 
  • Bluefin is also following the S.H.MonsterArts figure of 2013 poll found here: http://michalshipman.com/monsterarts/past-releases.html This poll will assist in knowing which figures were a hit or miss.Just got back from Bluefin today.

Destoroyah Review, Godzilla 2000 Millennium for the Darkness Collection, and a new poll!

Check out the Articulation Series review of Destoroyah!


Also added Godzilla 2000 Millennium to the Darkness Collection

In addition to these great updates, a new poll has been created for everyone to vote on their favorite S.H.MonsterArts of 2013. This reflects the North American release schedule, not the Japanese.

Site Updates:
  • Added a review for Destoroyah.
  • Added Godzilla 2000 Millennium to the Darkness Collection in the GALLERY.
  • Removed Toy Freakz from the Buy it Now links and will be gradually replacing Toy Freakz links with Image Anime links. Toy Freakz is reportedly closing up shop, so until further notice don't order from them.
  • Added a poll in the PAST RELEASES section to vote on the best monster of 2013. The poll will remain open until Spacegodzilla's episode is complete.
  • Fixed minor bugs throughout the site.
