First off, I'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! This upcoming year will be a huge year for kaiju fans in that it's the 50th anniversary of the legendary King of the Monsters, GODZILLA. Although this is a Gamera site, Godzilla's 50th anniversary will still be celebrated in some way since it was because of Godzilla, Gamera was created.
Second, I'd like to mention the release of A LOT of Gamera figures within the last few months. Extreme Collectables has all of the current new releases of Gamera collectibles including the full X-Plus USA release of the heisei Gamera kaiju, and new additions, such as Flying forms of Gamera 1999 and 1996, an amazing yet cheap 12" figure of Gamera 1995 which goes along with another great sculpt of Gyaos 1995 (also in the 12" scale), and much much more. I highly recommend these figures as they are awesome and difficult to come across. Within the next few days there will be many updates on this site, so check the main page for further details.
