I am proud to announce the release of the latest MyKaiju box art for the X-Plus Toho 30cm Series Yuji Sakai Modeling Collection Godzilla (1984) “Shinjuku Fukutoshin Battle” Soft Vinyl Assembly Kit [東宝30cmシリーズ 酒井ゆうじ造形コレクション ゴジラ (1984)「新宿副都心決戦」ソフビ組立キット], created in collaboration with friend and colleague, Jeremy Summit Kaiju International and under the supervision of Master Yuji Sakai. I received the new assignment just days after Godzilla had returned from Japan last year. I’m always stoked to see a message from Matsubara. This time I was more excited than usual because it is unusual to have two projects in a single year. But 2024 is the big celebration of Godzilla’s 70th anniversary with merch that’s sure to blow the fandom away. And I learned that the next X-Plus release would be Master Sakai’s Return of Godzilla celebrating 40 years since his appearance in 1984, which is one of my favorite movies and creations.
