The Press Release:
Anime has taken the world by STORM and fans of the medium know the month of May is for celebrating #AniMAY. Whether they’re admirers of the incredible works from Studio Ghibli or the unforgettable characters in Naruto, One Piece, or Demon Slayer (to name a few), there are oceans of people who celebrate their favorite anime works by collecting memorabilia or character figures. It’s not hard to gear up and show your fandom in any (or all) of these ways, because when fans think of anime collectibles, they think of Bandai Namco Toys & Collectibles America.
Hey friends, so I am here once more with another redirect over to “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” website because the fine folks over at the Toy Insider recently held their annual “Holiday Of Play” event. I used to feature that event coverage here on PiercingMetal but with so much of the products being for a younger set, I’ve moved it onto “The Chronicles” which you can peruse in full by clicking HERE.

The Press Release:
Paying homage to past and present Mobile Suit Gundam models, Bandai America is proud to introduce the Ultimate Luminous Gundam and Gundam Infinity figure line, launching Fall 2021 and open for pre-orders NOW! Taking the most iconic Mobile Suits from the Gundam universe, the Gundam Infinity collection features a collectible line of 4.5-inch, highly detailed figures with over 14 points of articulation, battle-ready accessories, and interchangeable parts. Gundam fans can either customize parts from different generations of Gundams to create units of their own or model their figures as they’re purchased.
As the Comic Con International: San Diego draws closer, we are receiving more and more visuals from the companies that will have some awesome exclusives at this years convention. This latest reveal comes from the Bandai company who will be doling out an exclusive vinyl figure of “Godzilla: King Of The Monsters”. Take a look down below for the press copy and a bunch of provided images.
The Press Release:
From Bandai the 65th Anniversary 1954 Godzilla Deluxe Vinyl Figure (2019 Convention Exclusive) is an authentic recreation of the iconic kaiju that introduced Godzilla to the world in the 1954 Toho film Godzilla. This highly detailed 2019 Convention Exclusive Godzilla features accurate sculpting in a limited edition translucent flake vinyl with added paint treatments for enhanced realism. The exclusive package is a displayable window box with premium sleeve.
Continuing along with the exploration of the 2019 Toy Fair, I am now giving you the inside peak of the Bandai booth. In the past, we’ve never actually done into the booth of the company and instead shared the visuals about their products from the windows around their pavilion. It worked to an extent but now we are heading inside to see what is coming down the pike from them. I was pretty excited about a number of the items since the mighty Godzilla was among them and would be the first stop on my visit to their booth.
Among the figures presented were a number of 8″ or so sized figures which I can easily see myself purchasing a complete set of. They only had Godzilla, King Ghidorah and King Ceasar for display but aren’t they cool.
