There\u2019s new\u00a0Godzilla toys and <\/a>figures<\/a> on a regular basis, and the latest is based on the King of the Monsters\u2019 smash hit,\u00a0Godzilla Minus One<\/a>. Bandai recently unveiled the Odo Island Monster figure<\/a> for its SH MonsterArts line, which takes inspiration from the king during his opening rampage at the start of the 2023 film.<\/p>\n

With involvement from Yuji Sakai, a sculptor and modeler who helped design Yamata no Orochi for\u00a0Orochi, the Eight-Headed Dragon\u00a0and has modeled or designed on a\u00a0Godzilla\u00a0movie since\u00a0Godzilla vs. Destroyah,\u00a0the 4.72-inch figure \u201cfaithfully recreates the distinctive forward-leaning posture, large head, and slender torso and legs, with proportions closer to a dinosaur,\u201d said SH MonsterArts<\/a>. And with wide articulation throughout the body that keep it from breaking proportions, the figure will help fans recreate their favorite Minus One\u00a0moments at the same time they\u2019re watching it.<\/p>\n

This proto-Godzilla only appears once in Minus One\u00a0during a night scene, so the figure is the first time we get to really see this form in full. SH MonsterArts helpfully reminded fans that the Odo figure lets them \u201cexperience the transformation\u201d of Godzilla throughout the film. Before this, the company put out a Minus Color variant<\/a> in 2024 to match the film\u2019s similarly named black-and-white cut that came out earlier that year. And if you count last year\u2019s figure, exclusive to San Diego Comic-Con that featured Godzilla with its flame breath<\/a> and glowing fins? Then you\u2019ve got yourself a trilogy of toys.<\/p>\n

Pre-orders for the Godzilla Minus One\u00a0Odo Island Monster figure are now up ahead of its Japanese release this September for 12,100 yen (or about $77). And in November, fans can look forward to the sequel, Minus Zero, in November.<\/p>\n
