Movie Monster Series - MOTHRA

Description: RARE MOVIE MONSTER RELEASE Bandai Movie Monster Series 2001MOTHRA 2001The Movie Monster Series was launched in 2001, featuring reissues of 10 of the figures from the previous line, the Toho Kaiju Series. The figures were given a new vinyl color, different paint highlights (if not most giving resemblance to their film counterparts), and even a larger size difference when compared to the Toho Kaiju Series. The tags for the Movie Monster Series figures are completely different from the previous lines; the borders were removed with the pictures of each respective monsters taking up most of the front of the tag, and the back shows a picture of the head of one of the Godzillas from the respective era where the monster originated (Godzilla 1993 for Heisei monsters, and Godzilla 1974 for Showa monsters). Towards the end of 2001, Bandai released one more figure to the Movie Monster Series: Burning Godzilla.To coincide with the release of Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack in 2001, Bandai added the movie's versions of Godzilla, Baragon, Mothra and King Ghidorah to the Movie Monster line-up.[note 1] Unlike the other figures in the line, they are all part of the 8-inch scale, making this the only line of primarily 6-inch Godzilla figures to also produce 8-inch figures. Theater exclusives for all four figures were made, as well as an event-exclusive Clear Version Godzilla, a Hyper Hobby exclusive translucent glitter Godzilla, and an orange translucent Baragon. The tags for the GMK figures feature a picture of Godzilla's head. Bandai released their Movie Monsters Burning Godzilla in 2001 in conjunction with the Godzilla - Mothra - King Ghidorah film. Unlike the eight inch version, the body and legs of this figure are molded in a translucent orange vinyl, with the charcoal-gray painted on. The head, arms, and tail are all molded in gray. The figure is the first in the renamed Movie Monsters (formerly Toho Kaiju 2, formerly Godzilla Island) series, making it the 18th different 6 inch figure overall.
