The Godzilla (2014) [Poster Version] rocks the illuminated reddish flame color found on the Japanese theatrical posters for GODZILLA (2014). The sculpt and articulation engineering are unchanged from the original release back in October (NA). This variant is exclusively available through Amazon.co.jp, bundled with Toho's Limited Blu-Ray 5 Disc Edition of GODZILLA (2014), priced at ¥15,000 ($130), and limited to only 8000 pieces! It's scheduled to be released February 25, 2015.
The Bad News:
If you've just heard about this and really want it, unfortunately, it sold out in 2 days. Due to the nature of this release, it will not be released in North America.
The Not-So-Good-News:
You can still pick it up from third party sellers like PlayAsia, CDJapan, or Ebay, but be prepared to spend well over MSRP.
The Good News-(ish):
If you don't want to pay the crazy aftermarket prices for this release, you can always closely monitor Amazon.co.jp's product page and hope that someone cancels their pre-order. Amazon.co.jp instantly updates the product page once a pre-order is successfully canceled. So there's a slim, random, chance you can still own this figure and set at MSRP.
Sci-Fi Japan has listed the complete product info and specs of this bundle, check it out!
In addition to this update, I've also included brand new Hi-Res promo photos of Godzilla [Comic-Con Explosion], courtesy of Bandai Tamashii Nations Japan, released July 2012. Original product info & specs included. Even though this figure has been long out of print, it's still relatively affordable through Amazon, Image Anime, and Toy Wiz. Perhaps this can fill the void that is Godzilla (2014) [Poster Version].
