Ideas for new giant monster kits.

Well, there was that Twilight Zone episode that had the Gulliver-like astronaut...that would make a cool kit

As far as more ideas, an Indominus Rex and a V-Rex would make nice dino additions.

Also, some of the coolest dinosaur art ever was on the original Dell Turok covers. Many of those would make beautiful kits.

And isn't it about time for a new Dinosaurus kit?

Did anyone mention Yamato Takeru? I only know of Sakai's long OOP No Orochi kit and the crummy Bandai toys. I may make another run at sculpting Kumasogami at some point.

So I started working on him this week. An obscure kaiju, so I figure if I don't do him he won't get done. Some quickie color thrown on the model to give folks an idea of what he'll look like when finished. I intend to print him in clear resin for lighting. Pretty good progress so far for my first kaiju:

It would also be great to have a new 93 Fire Rodan and the new Legendary Rodan!

I was not familiar with Yamato Takeru or Kumasogami, but after looking them up, no doubt about it they would make extremely cool looking figures. The sculpt of Kumasogami looks exactly like it.

As Rodans go, those are distinctive renditions of the character and deserve more representation in kit form. It is sounding like Rodan might be the big story from the new King of Monsters film.

Thanks! I'm trying! I'm finishing up the lower torso and legs now, but here's an update with the arms - I went with the bow and arrow look.



It's a goofy movie, but I always loved the designs for the lava demon, sea monster, and of course - Orochi the hydra. DopePope did a really cool version of the sea monster, but I don't think he's made that model available. I asked him if he'd ever done Orochi and he said no, which means that crummy Bandai toy and incredibly rare Sakai resin kit are the only things available. I might try tackling Orochi some day, but I have too many other things in my sculpting queue at the moment.

I was thinking the same!
