Following numerous "Godzilla" releases, X-PLUS's popular DefoReal series, known for blending intricate details with a super-deformed aesthetic, is now tackling the 12th film in the franchise, "Godzilla vs. Gigan." The film's star kaiju, Gigan (1972), is making its DefoReal debut! Priced at 9,240 JPY, the figure is slated for an August 2022 release.

First appearing in the 1972 film "Godzilla vs. Gigan," the original Gigan is a bio-engineered cyborg kaiju created by the M Space Hunter Nebula Aliens. It debuted as a biological weapon alongside King Ghidorah, boasting a bird-like head, red laser-emitting eyes, a chainsaw on its chest and abdomen, and sharp hooks for limbs. Its brutal power is evident from its design alone! Gigan's astonishing offensive capabilities even caused Godzilla to bleed profusely, cementing its reputation as one of the most brutal and evil kaiju in the series.
▼ The film "Godzilla vs. Gigan" celebrated its 50th anniversary!
The "DefoReal Gigan (1972)" pre-painted figure stands approximately 15 cm tall, faithfully recreating Gigan's ferocious appearance in a super-deformed, big-head style. The sharp, hooked blades on its arms and the terrifying chainsaw on its chest and abdomen are dynamically rendered. The three wing-like fins and feather-like scales on its back not only give it a biological feel but also feature a metallic sheen, making them particularly striking against its green skin. The Shonen RIC Limited Edition includes built-in LED lights under its red visor, recreating its eerie and malevolent glow from the film!
