Hiya has revealed another Exquisite Basic release of Godzilla from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. The 'Heat Ray' Evolved version of Godzilla will feature a translucent body, which enables a glow effect on the dorsal fins. He also comes with an extra head, extra hands, and the 'heat ray' effect, also in a translucent finish.



The new 'Heat Ray' Evolved Godzilla is expected to ship in the first quarter (January - March) of 2026.



Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was released in 2024. This time, it thrusts Kong and Godzilla into a colossal confrontation with an unknown menace lurking within our world. Exploring deeper into origins of Titans.


Driven by a relentless pursuit of quality, refining every detail to elevate both playability and display experience. This brand new Heat Ray Godzilla Evolved Ver. action figure builds with multiple enhancements, including refined proportions and an optimized silhouette, ensuring better compatibility when displayed alongside figures from the same series.


One of the most notable improvements is the adjustment of body proportions, resulting in a more balanced and imposing silhouette. The neck joint has been upgraded to a double-joint structure, offering a wider range of motion and more expressive head poses. The dorsal fins have been thickened and redesigned with sharper, more intricate textures, creating greater realism. In addition, the tail has been upgrated with a multi-joint structure, allowing for smoother, more natural motion—capturing the dynamic flow of Godzilla’s iconic movements.

When illuminated from behind, layered paint applications over a translucent body can replicate the glowing pink energy state in Godzilla’s dorsal fins. Additionally, the figure comes with 1x interchangeable head, 2x hand parts and 1x special pink Heat Ray effect to perfectly recreate Godzilla’s iconic battle scene from the film.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
