When The Video Ended, My Battery Was At 54%

"this is not about accuracy to the source material.." After hearing that, I thought to myself: hmmmm isn't that the main point why we collect these figures in the first place? LOL

Have fun reviewing that 2019 Ghidorah with that wingspan

Love how he didn’t mention the accessories because none of them had them.

For collectors, it's obviously the Bandai S.H. Monster Arts figure. For people who like to play with their figures, such as myself? NECA.

The monsterarts kinda looks like the 55, raids again Godzilla, when the mouth is closed. Not exactly but really close. I seen both side to side at a comics shop and I can see why you like the monsterarts more. I don't have a raids again Godzilla yet and I am thinking about buying him from a guy that I met at the comic shop. He has to sell everything cause his wife said either Godzilla or her. He said that he talked her into keeping a few to go on his computer desk but that's all. I might get 3 figures for doing some plumbing pipe work in areas of his house and I am kinda hurting myself because I would have to buy the pipe and the job would normally cost just under a thousand but I am helping out a few good people and getting myself some awesome figures. Making a new friend is another plus. :)

I would have given the S.H. MonsterArts the point for sculpt and paint applications. The dry brushing breaks up some of the monotony to the plastic he was casted in. The sculpt definitely matches the suit better, which for some collectors is a deal breaker. For me, since I use these figures for drawing reference, accuracy means a lot. I own both of these figures, and while the NECA figure is good, I found myself gravitating more to the S.H.MonsterArts for scale. He matches well with my other figures, including vinyls. Well, looks like the next figure fight will be between the two Godzilla 1962 figures. I have a feeling that NECA will win again, despite the upsides to the S.H. MonsterArts.

sh monstersarts kinda looks like the 1955

I would have given S.H. MonsterArts the point for sculpt and paint applications.

you forgot that the NECA spines are badly painted

next time I want it to be burning Godzilla

I bought the Neca way before I got the Monster Arts, and I have to say, after getting the Monsterarts, I never looked at the Neca one again. The sculpt is just so detailed and the articulation allows so many poses that capture the film perfectly. The worse I can say about it is A) lack of claw paint (but, coming from a Black and White movie, that's not really a big deal) and B) looks a little derpy with the eyes at a few angles (but again, coming from the '54 design where that is very much the case, not a big deal). In fact, one of my biggest complaints about the Neca figure is the lack of the downward facing eyes. That's a hallmark of the 1954 suit. Why "correct" them? Neca may always have price going for it, but MonsterArts puts that price tag to good use with such a higher quality in sculpt and articulation. It just looks amazing. And honestly, I appreciate the smaller size. The Neca one isn't 6 inches tall; it's 7. It's honestly too big for sizing up to other figures. Meanwhile, the MonsterArts fits up nicely with the Revoltech Showa line and, while not in the same uniform size as the other Godzillas in the line, still looks nice standing next to the likes of the MonsterArts Heisei and Millennium designs. By comparison, the Neca figure towers over all but Shin and Earth. It's 7 inch stature throws it completely off.

Next figure fight should be NECA Godzilla 2014 and SHMA Godzilla 2014

I missed it damn. The KoTM panel was happening

I think I said MonsterArts Godzilla 1954 should win

The Sh monsterarts looks like The 1955 one to me

I think that the S.H. Monsterarts should have won the scale department because the 1954 Godzilla is 164 feet tall where the heisei Godzilla is about 300 feet tall so he scales very well with the other kaijus.

Aside from some of the QC issues that Monsterarts has suffered, I absolutely love both companies for their contributions. That having been said, thanks for the fun, fabulous and entertaining video!

S.H.MONSTERARTS is way better for me 1. Looks way better then neca 2. The tail is great 3.looks more like in the film 4. prize doesnt matter 5. It looks more cooler

Me personally between the two, easily the monsterarts however the neca is still a very good figure overall. Can u do neca vs monsterarts burning or legendary next

Me: Looks at Neca spines (doesn’t like paint) Steven: “it looks great” Me: *inhales* BOI!

6:35 moving on down *LEGS*

I think S.H. Monsters goes overboard with the articulation

I purchased the monsterarts 54 I'm very happy with it, the neca 54 is good too. My buddy has it and we did a comparison both good figures. I do own more monsterarts but am very pumped for the neca 1989 release(first neca purchase).

Oh yeah, my favourite figure, the NECA 1954 is the best because it took the real look of the original suit. Next year I wanna buy both NECA and SHMA Godzilla 2019 and only one NECA Godzilla 1962 because the SHMA is derpy.

Personally I prefer the SH Monsterarts for the sculpt and potability, though I think the qc issues are pretty bad Oh and the I can't stand the dorsal plates of the NECA

Neca: looks like a Guy in a Suit. Shma: Looks like a real creature. Take your pick.

This might be a hot take but the NECA head sculpt is way better

How do i put the tail on the neca once, it's impossible to put in on!

Feel like the 1962 Godzillas will be another victory for NECA.

also where do you get the miniature buildings? edited: also the explosions and dust stuff

Why does one of them look like “Godzilla raids again”

Do you have plans on making a Figure Fight of NECA's Godzilla (2014) and S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla (2014)?

Screen accurate approach

Im biased towards NECA because thats where I get my godzilla figures from, though I do own one SHM. With that said, this particular Godzilla being hyper articulated and able to achieve all those great dynamic poses, doesnt really matter. From what I understand the original suit used in the movie could barely even move. You can probably recreate the pose from every scene in that movie just fine with NECA's level of articulation...So even with SMH getting the point over NECA in the articulation department, its hard to call that a win.

if neca made the kiryus it would suck

I liked the Neca

Unfortunately when I bought a Neca ‘54 a while back, its dorsal fins were coming off, I got two left feet (got a replacement foot), but also the articulation was VERY stiff. Has anyone else dealt with this problem?

PLEASE KEEP DOING THIS SERIES!!!!

Fun Fact: The final clay model for ShodaiGoji emulated crocodile skin. And either coincidental or intentional, the skin resembled the radiation burns of Hiroshima and Nagasaki survivors.

Like Jobby said, NECA looks like a guy in a suit and monsterarts looks like a creature.

Neca Godzilla figures at my Walmart is between $30-$40. man I remembered buying the Neca 2014 and 1994 for $18.99. and then I spent over $30 for the 1954.

I think the monsterarts and i am ordering it right now

I would’ve wanted sh monsterarts because the sculpted probably did his best to show what the 1954 would’ve truly looked like in the movie. But fair play to neca

What I don’t understand is how both the figures look exactly like the suit but when they are standing next to each other they look nothing alike

I can't wait for you to compare the neca and sh monsterarts 62 godzilla together

Yo creo que es de las pocas figuras que de Godzilla que Neca le gana a SH Monsterarts ya que como Sh monsterarts tiene muchas articulaciones lo hacen ver muy flaco

I'm a miniature painter, and having heard what you've said about the Neca paint apps looking better made me realized you may never have painted a miniature: The monsterarts has it's airbrush style that suits incredible well with the dark black and white tone of the 54 film whereas the neca is too bright and roughly painted that almost ruins the figure. In terms of scale having a Godzilla 54 bulkier than the 95 for example is an issue for me. It's true than neither the neca nor the monsterarts are in scale, but at least Bandai tried to imprint this Godzilla with a "smaller" look. In conclusion it's true that price wise neca is the undoubted winner and they're good value for your money but as a collector having a mix of both brands at home I have to say that neca aren't better figures than SH monsterarts. If you have the chance to get a monsterarts Godzilla at a good price, get it (they're a bit pricey on launch day but completely unaffordable due to speculation some months after) something less than 80 bucks for these figures is worth it.

I have 1954 neca one

the monsterarts one looks more like the puppet and the neca one looks more like the suit

i think pricing has changed a lot like neca goji figures aren't made anymore so now they're pricy

Finally ive been waiting since figure fight 2!

neca s head shape looks like a godzilla from a different showa movie so its better also monster arts head its not sculpted correctly is steven blind'

I love this series!!! I hope you keep doing these figure fights!!!

SHM Godzilla 54 is better i guess

id love the shma more if it had non black and white paint and if it was much bigger (7-8 inch scale)

Do Sh Monsterarts Godzilla 1962 Vs Neca Godzilla 1962.

Can you do Burning godzilla neca vs s.h.monsterarts

Neca looks moremovie acurate because he looks more like a rubber suit, my bye is NECA. Good video :-)

I like the Godzilla (1954)

I got the neca Godzilla and I think is better

Hey Mr. Steven! I have a question about my S.h. Monsterarts Godzilla 2000 millennium special color version. Every time I’ve bought one, there’s something very wrong with it besides the fist one, but someone in my family lost parts of it. Could you please tell me how to fix the jaw to them and fix the lower knees?

Do more figure fight

Where did you get the blue beam

I wish the NECA version of the 1954 Godzilla figure had also been given the same articulation that was given to the S.H. Monsterarts version.

If the neca and sh.monsterarts Are the winner there are both win

Amazing! I was waiting for another one of these!

I like the Neca, but the Dorsal plate paintjob could be better.

I like the Neca best bcs I like the suit design and it’s not as expensive. I aslo have one.

The other one starts March to arts

like the videos but articulation is not fair to neca they are legally mandated to be far less than monsterarts due to the licence they got from toho. But neca always wins on price. That licence also says no ghidora from neca unless a new deal happens.

how about the neca 1962goji vs s.h monsterarts version

Please do a fight between the shma godzilla 2002 and neca godzilla 2003

I like sh monsterarts but preffer the Neca couse sh monsterarts is to expensive in philippines and also the world so i cant buy any of the Shm, Neca not so much... So yeah there bouth really really good.

Poster image version getting picked up bye me for sure

... you do know the NECA figures are basically tit-for-tat repros of the suits while Monster Arts are meant to be approximations with more life like proportions right? In this case NECA almost always wins

The shmonsterarts is the best but neca i love you.

Which one is which?

The sh figure looks badass

I prefer Neca's it looks more original to me

Neca

We need more!

Let’s be honest NECA will always win in cost so why does it count any more!? Whatever

Of course in the video that the Neca won.... however. I perfer the S.H. MonsterArts, due to reasons. I actually bought that Bandai figure to scale well with the 24 inch 2014 Godzilla. Of course Neca won due the price and scale, but that might be a problem. Sure that figure is about 20 bucks, but finding it online is an issue consider I'm from Sweden, due to me not finding it on stock in Bigbadtoystore, and finding anywhere where that is over 20, like 50 or 60 dollars, not worth picking. And the scale where it would fit with other Neca Godzilla is neat, it felt little to big for my taste. Reason why I didn't but it with the 24 inch was that it would fit the scale as one is 50 m and other is 108 m, the 6 inch and 12 inch long Gojira were little too big for my taste, not that it's bad (it isn't) but it didn't feel right. The Bandai scale perfectly in my book, I fit very well with LegendaryGoji. I do like this video, but I kinda feel it might be a little unfair with price and scale. But that's my opinion.

It's been almost 4 years since this video premiered and it still frustrates the shit out of me-

If you want a more like cartoonish figure go for neca if you want a one that looks black and white go for monster arts

The Neca’s spines are I don’t even knot wtf

What about the neca poster ver?

Can’t wait for neca to make ghidorah cuz I’m not interested in the figuarts line

I did the poll and shma had "54 percent

Neca is more accurate toward the suit, but shma is more accurate toward the actual monster, if godzilla were real

I am ordering neca 2019 godzilla

The shma one is better for stop motion, the NECA one is more accurate

The neca figure is kinda better because the hinge joint hands can open and close...so he can hold a train and bite it like he did in the movie or in that one picture I saw

If shma focused on paint more they would be the ultimate figures

Honestly the NECA wins on that, by a little . this is because i know my neca figures, but the only thing that seemed strange, its how big his head is, the other godzillas have small heads comared to their bodies, other than that neca is perfect

I vote the neca bc the shma looks like the godzilla raids again

The only reason I buy neca figures is because I’m a child, I don’t have enough money for monster arts and i just care how accurate, doesn’t break, and it can move. I may collect monster arts in the future when I’m able to earn money from a job but until that I love neca 😊

I like the Godzilla 1954 more!
