Product Description
This figure is a work of art. When you compare this Godzilla to the original film you are hard-pressed to find flaw with it. Godzilla is beautifully sculpted and features a great deal of texturing to simulate the costume used to film the original Godzilla. This figure of Godzilla, which by itself is quite spectacular, was designed to replicate in 1/6 scale an actor playing Godzilla! When you peel off the Velcro row of spines a fully articulated action figure is inside of the Godzilla. This figure is actually an outer layer of rubber with an inner action figure surrounded by foam, or a figure in a foam-rubber suit. Sculpted in Godzilla's neck are a number of indentations to simulate the breathing holes of the foam rubber Godzilla suit for the actor.

I recently purchased this figure from a different site and was a little disappointed by it, mostly because the manufaturer gives a false description of its' posablity.The look of this figure is great. At 12 inches high it is bigger than many other Godzilla figures that normally come in 6 to 8 inch sizes. The rubber suit fitted over an action figure gives Godzilla a look straight off the movie set, with a very detailed mold depicting the character as it appeared in the original 54' movie (there is also another figure, released a few years before that depicts Godzilla as he appeared in the Godzilla vs King Kong movie, with different sculpt and slightly different design). As a fan of Godzilla since I was a kid, this type of movie accurate realism was what I wanted when I purchased the figure for display. For that, I would give it 5 stars.However, the description of this figure as being highly posable is highly laughable.The tail does have two wires that run all the way from tip to butt that allow you to pose the tail whichever way you want, which is a cool feature and one that isn't found on most Godzilla figures. The posablity ends there, however.The "wired jaw for roaring action" is actually a sculpted plastic hood that fits up into the rubber head. It has a movable plastic lower jaw that in theory should allow Godzilla's mouth to open and close. It doesn't. The lower jaw just isn't strong enough to have much effect on the stiff plastic of the mouth.The arms might have more movement if they werent' molded to the body from the elbow up. This leaves only the forearms free to move, and the figure inside the suit doesn't have strong enough joints to actually hold a pose against the rubber. The legs are stiff from the foam that the figure uses for padding to fill out the costume, and don't even pretend to hold a pose.So this figure is a great looking display, but it would have been nice (for this kind of money) to actually be able to pose it like you want, even if just a little bit. The worst part (and the reason I'm writing this review in the first place) is that the manufacturer gives a blatantly false description of its' ablities and needed to be called on it.I should also mention that while the prices here are about the same as on other sites such as Ebay, this figure can be found much cheaper. I found mine for about a hundred bucks less.
