Forty two years ago, an enormous bug-eyed turtle stunned audiences with its debut in the movie Daikaiju Gamera. The monster would go on to star in a dozen movies that would be eventually be shown around the world to enrapture young and old viewers alike.Japanese manufacturer Weccle Ats has started preorders for a 160cm or 62.99" tall Gamera figure which weighs 36kg or approximately 80 lbs. While Gamera doesn't have as much gaming feng shui goodness as Weccle Ats' life-size Mario statues, he's still a pretty big attraction thanks to his recognizable face, fangs, and overall form.
Preorders for the Gamera figure are welcome to ship in mid-late October 2007. Due to the limited nature of this product, NCS requires a US$300 non-refundable deposit for all preorders. Pricing is set at JPY400,000 or US$3500 from NCS.
