>>6951997As a die-hard MechaGodzilla fan, I can safely assure you that very few of us would go out of our way for this version of MechaGodzilla.
Not because it's a bad design, mind you - it is, but that's not the reason why - but because MechaGodzilla gets the shaft really hard in these movies.
Consider all the other MechaGodzilla designs-
>Showa MechaGodzilla comes right out of the gate swinging, and gets two full movies to display its awesomeness>Heisei MechaGodzilla is derpy, but at least it holds the distinction of being one of the few to actually kill Godzilla>Heisei poster version is immortalized by having the best design that never appeared in a Godzilla movie and I would argue has recently become more visible than the actual Heisei version>Kiryu has a unique origin among MechaGodzillas and two fairly recent movies to show off what it can do, and has cemented itself in the eyes of fans by being the most visible MechaGodzilla incarnation of late>RPO MechaGodzilla tries, and fails, to capture what made the 1993 poster version so good, but at least it's given screen time in which to do things and make an impact on the story>Butcher MechaGodzilla has a brief appearance one movie ago where it refused to activate, and spends the entirety of its own movie not being active only to get the shaft at the end by being rendered nonfunctional, making its appearance in both movies completely unimportantI'd sooner buy an RPO MechaGodzilla than a Butcher one, simply because, as ugly as the RPO MechaGodzilla is, at least it does something. Butcher MechaGodzilla is just a worse Trypticon that never transforms out of city mode.
This figure will likely only sell to autistic completionists or diehard fans of these movies.
