Off the heels of the release for Godzilla vs. Kong trailer, Tamashii Nations has announced they will be releasing new MonsterVerse S.H.MonsterArts. The first of the figures is an updated S.H.MonsterArts Godzilla, which is a modified version of the King of the Monsters release from 2019. However, this release will not feature an effect piece based on Godzilla’s iconic Atomic Breath. Yet, the figure’s paint details promote the use of the technique. Whereas, the second figure is S.H.MonsterArts Kong, based on Godzilla’s co-star and opponent for the film. In addition, this is the first MonsterVerse Kong in the series, as the previous S.H.MonsterArts King Kong was based on the Peter Jackson remake. Below are the image galleries for the figures and lists for the items’ contents from Bandai:
