Of course, that's when I mistakenly thought they would be the 7\" <i>Ultimates<\/i> scale, not this new smaller size, but still.<\/p>\n<p>Since there are only two <i>Super Kaiju<\/i> figures so far, there are only two building parts: the top and the bottom. That's right, the neat thing about these is that the two fit together to form a full building. Godzilla had the bottom half, while Mechagodzilla gets the top. The two don't attach in any way, with the upper half just resting on the lower through the force of gravity, but there is a plus side: that makes the building easier to break apart in a monster fight!<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->The pieces are molded in neutral grey plastic with no paint. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/s7tsk_s1b2.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"200\" title=\"unseen details\" align=left style=\"margin:7px 15px 0px 0px\">They're hollow, with Godzilla's piece having rubble on top, and Mechagodzilla's of course having a roof. The windows on the bottom of the building are a different style than the ones on top, though in a way that simply looks like an architectural choice, not a mistake. The \"assembled\" building is about 2&#189;\" tall, but what scale that's in depends on which of the two toys you're comparing it to.<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/s7tsk_s1b3.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"395\" title=\"nothing about this is in scale\"><br \/>\n<font size=-1><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/s7tsk_godz89.php\">Godzilla<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/s7tsk_mekg93.php\">Mechagodzilla<\/a><\/font><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Including Build-A-Building pieces with <i>Godzilla<\/i> toys is a grand idea, but it's not enough to overcome the generally poor quality of the line as a whole.<\/p>\n<div class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Posts\"><H5>&lt;i&gt;And now, some more OAFEry:&lt;\/i&gt;<\/H5><ul class=\"entry-meta\"><li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"ATFC '13 - Day 2: Bandai\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2013\/02\/atfc-13-day-2-bandai\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">ATFC '13 - Day 2: Bandai<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Spoilers on toys\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2008\/04\/spoilers-on-toys\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Spoilers on toys<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Godzilla Mystery Minis - Destoroyah review\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2024\/11\/godzilla-mystery-minis-destoroyah-review\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Godzilla Mystery Minis - Destoroyah review<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"How to enjoy your candy this weekend\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2025\/04\/how-to-enjoy-your-candy-this-weekend\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">How to enjoy your candy this weekend<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Flippin' through Previews - May '14\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2014\/05\/flippin-through-previews-may-14\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Flippin' through Previews - May '14<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I said in today's review, the destroyed buildings included with Super7's Target-exclusive Super Kaiju figures were the thing that made me want to get the line.
