Super7 is an American company that specializes in action figures and collectibles. It is most famous for its "ReAction" and "ULTIMATES!" lines, which are series of figures based on various media characters. In late 2020, Super7 announced that it had obtained the Godzilla license, with its first merchandise based on the license released in 2021.

ReAction figures

Shogun figures

Super7 has released two ReAction figures based on the Shogun Warriors Godzilla, the first of which was an SDCC exclusive before it was released to the public in late 2021. A Glow-In-The-Dark variant was also made, which was based on the Aurora/Atlantis model kit. In 2022, Super7 released the orange "1200°C" version, referencing Burning Godzilla from Godzilla vs. Destoroyah.[1]

Super Shogun figures

A subline of the Shogun ReAction figures, Super Shogun figures stand 20" tall and are based on the jumbo-scale toys of the 1970s and 1980s. The first Godzilla Super Shogun figure is of Mechagodzilla from Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla.

Marusan Godzilla

A ReAction figure based on the Marusan Godzilla was revealed in 2022, based on the "J-Tail" version of the figure. Later that year, Super7 revealed the second figure based on the Marusan Godzilla, this time with the L-shaped tail.

Godzilla figures

Wave 1

Super7 revealed the lineup for its first wave of Godzilla series figures in early 2022, due for release that summer.[2] The wave includes:

The Godzilla '57 figure represents the Godzilla suit created for the filming of additional scenes for The Volcano Monsters, a proposed American film which was to recycle special effects footage from Godzilla Raids Again but ultimately was never filmed. This unique Godzilla suit, officially dubbed "Gigantis Godzilla," has never received a figure outside of Japan until now.

Wave 2

Super7 first announced the second wave of Godzilla ReAction figures on November 3, 2022 to commemorate Godzilla Day. Set for release in spring 2023, the wave will include:

ULTIMATES! figures

Wave 1

In 2022, Super7 revealed the first of its Godzilla ULTIMATES! figures, based on the 1989 film Godzilla vs. Biollante. The set includes Godzilla and Flower Beast Biollante. Each figure includes several alternate parts; Godzilla comes with two heads, an alternate neck piece representing his neck wrapped in Biollante's vines, and seven different hands, including one with an impaled palm. Biollante includes two heads and two alternate mouthed tendrils.

Wave 2

In June 2022, Super7 revealed the next of its Godzilla ULTIMATES! figures: Burning Godzilla from Godzilla vs. Destoroyah and Mechagodzilla from Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II. Burning Godzilla comes with two heads, three sets of hands, and six smoke effect pieces. Mechagodzilla includes three heads, two sets of hands, an alternate open Plasma Grenade port, two Shock Anchor harpoons, and a Garuda figure which can be attached to its back to form Super Mechagodzilla.

Wave 3

In October 2022, Super7 revealed its next wave of Godzilla ULTIMATES! figures, based on the 1995 film Godzilla vs. Destoroyah. This wave consists of the mid-meltdown 1200°C Godzilla and Destoroyah. 1200°C Godzilla represents the monster as he melts down at the film's climax and comes with two heads, one with half-melted flesh and one with a completely exposed skull. Destoroyah represents the monster's Perfect Form and includes two sets of hands, two heads, and three juvenile forms.
