One of the most anticipated characters to hit the S.H.MonsterArts line, Mothra (1992) from the Heisei series makes its debut. Released as a web exclusive in Japan, Mothra is a regular release in North America with an MSRP of $64.99. The only Mothra figure I’ve ever owned was by Trendmasters, and that was a decent release, thanks to Mothra’s simple shape, but it was very much out of scale with that line’s Godzilla. Thankfully, that is not an issue with this release. Mothra’s wingspan is huge and the figure is in perfect scale with the rest of the Heisei releases of the S.H.MonsterArts line. I have to admit that after having slightly disappointed impressions with Battra, I was concerned that Mothra would suffer similar flaws since they were released only a few months apart from each other. Thankfully, most of Battra’s flaws were rectified in Mothra’s design, however there’s still room for improvement...
