Availability & Best Deal Updates 12/26 RED & ORANGE ZONE ALERTS!

This has been quite a year for Godzilla related S.H.MonsterArts. In celebration of the 60th Anniversary, 2014 outputted a record high amount of figures in a single year. Some were hits, some were misses. Not only was it a record high for releases, but 2014 also saw the fastest sell out rate putting many releases into the red zone, including some releases from 2014! Yes, it was certainly a good year. But be warned folks, we saw a big release schedule because of the new movie and 60th anniversary. 2015 is expected to me MUCH slower. We're talking 4-6 releases for the whole year of 2015. At the moment Tamashii Nations has announced releases all the way through May 2015 with only 2 figures confirmed for NA release, Mecha King Ghidorah and Godzilla 2000 Millennium Special Color Version. [Yes there's Gamera too, but that's not a Godzilla character and it's not covered here at The Articulation Series.]

So what happened since last week? Amazon completely sold out of Biollante and we're now seeing figures in the $450+ range from third party sellers. Hope everyone who wanted one got it, it's gonna be hell on your wallet playing catch up. Along with Biollante now being in the RED ZONE, Destoroyah enters the ORANGE ZONE. Amazon has sold out of Destoroyah, though it's entirely possible that they've got one more shipment coming in. Until they do, Destoroyah is being flagged in the Orange Zone now, especially with many retailers that compete with Amazon raising their own prices now that the retail giant doesn't carry it.

This is probably the last blog post for 2014. It's been a great one folks! Stay tuned for a poll for best SHMA of 2014. Happy New Year!
