Description

No secret that I love the Trandmasters line because it's an artistic twist on familiar kaiju and for me just chock full of nostalgia factor.  This was made at whatever point in the line it was where they decided to stop installing the sound effects electronics, so there's a panel on the back but no button or stuff inside to play the roar.  Still, love her.  Many thanks to my old friend Nick for donating this one to the collection.

I had one of these as a tiny kid. I think I even brought it to a show and tell once to count the heads because we were so little. Ah Heisei era. You are my favorite.

That's great, it's a brave child that flaunts their love of kaiju in public school back in the 90s   The Heisei era just hits all the right notes for me as well, particularly having a story to get invested in being the rise of Godzilla out of his villainy, gaining Miki as an ally and dying a hero's death.  It's just so satisfying, makes me a little annoyed now to see so many newly minted fans attacking it for somehow being the "weakest" part of Godzilla history, as if they were the ultimate authority on such things.  But for me it's the best era and the one I take the most pleasure from.

Ah yeah I remembered this line 

I was surprised when I saw the first commercials for these.

For the Godzilla Wars line I saw a small sticker on one of the bigger toys I had gotten and I thought it was a movie with SpaceGodzilla Gigan and Biollante (I was very young at the time and I only saw G vs. Biollante cause the other Heisei films weren't out here yet)

I wish they had Doon the doom island series

I would have killed for a chance to get my hands on the mega mutations Destroyah and some of the super rare guys from near the end of the line, especially Megalon.  It's impressive in retrospect that the line did so well considering American kids didn't really know any of these monsters, but obviously it would have helped out more if the Heisei films had been released in America following Japanese release like Biollante was.
