Hi-Res Promo Stills of the Toho Ultimate Weapons 2 & Godzilla Effects 2 Sets

Toho Ultimate Weapons Set 2

Godzilla Effects Set 2

You may be asking yourself. But where was the Toho Ultimate Weapons Set 1? Even more of a mystery, was there even a Godzilla Effects 1? How does the number "2" work with these releases? Simple. Back in 2012, Bandai Tamashii Nations released an exclusive set, here known as the Toho Ultimate Weapons & Godzilla Effects Set. 


At the time, Bluefin Distribution's involvement with the S.H.MonsterArts line was just beginning and was unable, or didn't think it was a strategic marketing move, to bring over this web exclusive set to NA. So a lot of us here in the USA missed out on this set. You can still find it today, but the prices are heavily inflated due to it's being OOP for the last couple of years.

The good news is that this may all change in the future. Bluefin just announced that for the first time EVER that they're going to reissue a Web Exclusive, purely for the Western Market. Depending on how well it does it could pave a way to our beloved Garuda & the Toho Ultimate Weapons & Godzilla Effects Set. The figure they're renewing is a DBZ Goku. So lets hope DBZ fans buy it up like crazy. As stated before, this is a FIRST for the company to reissue a WEB EXCLUSIVE. We can only cross our fingers.
