Hi allmykids some of my Godzilla movie posters I have bought for very good prices and some of the older and rare Japanese Godzilla movie posters were very expensive. But once you get them its bragging rights. my 1956 Godzilla King of the Monsters USA poster is worth $6000.00 and my 1959 Gigantis the Firemonster USA poster is worth about $200.00 the following 26 posters are Japanese poster.. Some are worth $800.00 and $700.00 others $400.00 and $300.00. Posters from 1984-2004 are $50.00 to $100.00. I lso have a Mothra movie poster collection 1961 1996 1997 1998 movie posters all 4 Jap posters. I have about 7 other Godzilla movie posters for sale some are Japanese some are Turkish and 1 German. I estimate my Godzilla movie poster collection to be worth a little over $10.000.00 If I replace 2 Jap release posters with original Jap posters the collection will be worth $1800.00 more.

Do you only have posters or do you have other stuff??
Well it sounds like you better be careful with them. Any kind of damage would bring the price down!!

Hi Allmykids I also collect vinyl Bandai Godzilla figures I have close to 100 figures and I have a few figures up for sale as well. Every year I try and make it to G-Fest a Godzilla convention held in Chicago in july. I have a large collection of Kaiju movies. Kaiju is Monster in Japanese. I also have books on figures and posters and reffrence history movie books about the Kaiju genre.
I have a first run reproduction of Lon Chaney Sr.'s Hunchback of Notre Dame handbill. I had a custom frame built to house it in and it is proudly displayed in my livingroom.
Just for shits and giggles, I have an "Exorcist" clock also.

Back when they were remaking TCM and alot of talk about the movie was going on I went to a store downtown that had old movie posters. The store had an Exorcist poster and a TCM 1974 movie poster. I didnt have the money to buy the poster it was priced at only $75 same for the Exorcist movie poster. I went back 3 days later to buy the TCM poster and it was gone. I have been kicking myself in the butt ever sinse DAMN IT. I could have bought that poster and sold it for a profit DAMN IT DAMN IT!! Oh well maybe next time.

Oh a sound button for some reason I was picturing a Godzilla figure with a shirt that had buttons lol. The last Godzilla figure I saw that had a sound button on the side was made by Trendmasters in the 1990s. As far as the 1980s go I dont remember if the Imperial Toy Godzilla figures made a sound. When you find out who made the figure you have let me know.

I bought the Trendmaster figures back in the mid 90s myself because they were the 1st set of American Godzilla toy figs to come out in over 10 years and as a collector I didnt know if they would be the last line of American made Godzilla figures. Like you I have mine boxed up. I only bought the 2 packs where its Godzilla and another monster.

If you really want to start a collection I suggest you start to buy Bandai figures for a couple of reasons 1 they look just like the monster in the movie very detailed 2 Bandai figures are cheap to buy and in time they will go up in value. Older bandai figures are expensive thats because they have gone up in value. If you cant afford the regular standerd 8inch figures then start off with the smaller 6inch bandai figures. You can get the figures from Clawmark toys they have the largest selection
http://www.clawmarktoys.com/ One more thing dont remove the tag from the figure a figure with a tag is worth more here is an example lets say I want to buy a 1993 Godzilla bandai figure 8inch standard size without tag it is worth $88 with tag its worth $135 a tag will make all the diffrence
