Top 5 SH MonsterArts figures I'd like to see.

My Humble Collection.
Bandai Tamashii Nation's 'SH MonsterArts' line has been wildy popular over the past few years making highly detailed and articulated figured based on Godzilla and his Kaiju co-stars. But there are some figures that to this point have been left out of the line, so these are the Monsters I would most like to see introduced as figures in this fantastic toy line.

Before I reveal my main picks, here are some honorable mentions.


Honorable Mentions:

MEGALON
One of the most uniquely designed monsters and a popular monster in the Godzilla fighting games.


ANGUIRUS

Godzilla's most trusted ally. Plus the brand could use more Showa love.



Now for the main event!


#5
SANDA & GAIRA
The Gargantuas have never had much exposure when it comes to figures, at least not fully detailed ones. The closest we've gotten were from X-Plus, but those figures aren't articulated and SH MonsterArts are all about articulation. I think they'd be a fine addition to the line.




#4
KING CAESAR
While not one of Godzilla's most recurring allys he certainly was a mermorable monster and an integral part in defeated the dreaded Mechagodzilla. And as a neat accessory, it should come with a small scale model of the King Caesar statue from the original 'Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla'.

#3
JET JAGUAR

Do I need to say anything else? In fact, with all the Ultraman figures that have been made I'm surprised we still haven't gotten a Jet Jaguar figure yet. Maybe/hopefully someday.



#2
GODZILLA'S SKELETON

Now this is something I've thought about for a long time. In several of the Godzilla films, you can see scale models of Godzilla's Skeleton on shelves along with other cool looking figures (making me super jelly). And that got me thinking: "Why is there not a figure of Godzilla's Skeleton?".  I think it would be a marvelous collection piece to add to any Godzilla fans shelf. It would be just like having a Dinosaur Skeleton in a museum, a posable one at that! Doesn't that sound awesome? 
And just for the sake of homage, it should come with an Oxygen Destroyer accessory.




#1
THE MUTO'S
There are have been a few Muto figures out there but none of them have any real articulation. Also there's the fact that the legs are always colored red, when in the actual film, the legs are mix of black and grey. They only light up red when the creatures are getting ready to use there electromagnetic stomp attack. 
Some nice Godzilla 2014 figures have been made, they just need Muto's to go with them. Ever since seeing the severed head of one with the Spit Fire 2014 figure, it just makes me want them even more. 
It would also be cool if both the Male and the Female came in one pack just like the Destoroyah Evolution Set from 2013.


Till next time I have been your host Gryphon and I hope you have enjoyed your time here in my lair. So long!
