Review: Godzilla vs King Ghidorah - Vinyl Mecha King Ghidorah (1991)

Up next with "I have no clue what I'm gonna review next week" we have, Mecha King Ghidorah, from Godzilla vs King Ghidorah in 1991. I think after Godzilla destroys (or kills) King Ghidorah they get a new one from the future, but this one has gadgets and is built on top of the corpse of the King Ghidorah that was recently destroyed by Godzilla. Luckily for these folks, this one doesn't malfunction like one from the future due to traces of  it's own DNA. Anyways, like most movies, Godzilla destroys Mech King Ghidorah, are you really surprised? Anyways, lets move on.

Figure

This is a completely different sculpt, even the heads, It's a lot bigger and It's very nicely detailed. However it isn't Gold or silver, it's more of a dull color. But it does have minor, very minor paint apps.
The back of the wings are nicely detailed, and different from the front which is nice.
The tail piece can rotate, and it's nicely sculpted.
The feel have very nice detail, the claws on the feed look cool and the shin protectors on his legs.
The Ghidorah heads are nice, and have a very glossy look to them, the silver teeth and the red snake eyes.
The Mecha King Ghidorah head is also glossy, the teeth are detailed in and the antennae are there. The eyes have very glossy green eyes and the missile on the top has a red tip.
The inside of the mouths are painted.
The tail can rotate.
The heads can move around at the base of the neck.
The legs can move, in an odd way.
The wings can also rotate.

Dislikes and Would Likes
I would like Shiny Gold Paint and Shiny Silver Paint.

Overall

So, this is a fantastic figure, I really like him and he's freaking huge. He's roughly about 10-12 inches tall so he's a lot bigger than the modern King Ghidorah vinyls that are made now-a-days. This one was pretty expensive, so the price may be a little high even without the tag.
