Hiya Toys has revealed the next collectible in its Godzilla Exquisite Basic Series with the Biollante figure which is inspired by its appearance in the 17th film in Toho’s iconic feature film franchise, 1989’s Godzilla vs. Biollante. It is available to pre-order now, priced at $149.99; take a look at the promotional images here…
This is the 17th film in the Godzilla series, and the first to be helmed by director Kazuki Omori. Five years after the great destruction of the Shinjuku subcenter, a fierce struggle unfolds over Godzilla’s cells (G-cells)—cells capable of producing an anti-nuclear bacteria that can neutralize nuclear weapons and even tip the world’s military balance. Dr. Shiragami, an authority in genetic engineering, had secretly fused the cells of his late daughter with a rose; in an effort to keep her cells alive, he spliced G-cells into the rose’s seed—only for it to mutate into a giant monster, giving birth to Biollante. And so begins the battle against Godzilla, newly awakened at Mt. Mihara.
The new EXQUISITE BASIC Series Biollante action figure faithfully recreates its iconic appearance from Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989). Standing approximately 20CM tall (from bottom to head), and 40CM wide(when vines spread as shown), features Biollante’s signature central maw lined with sharp fangs, with intertwining vines and bark-like hide sculpted throughout the body. At the center of the torso, the core is recreated using a translucent orange-red piece with silver inner paint applications, adding depth and contrast to this distinctive feature.
Several root vines extend from the body, with some ending in fanged mouths that faithfully capture Biollante’s unique design from the film. The vines feature an internal wire frame covered with soft PVC material, allowing for flexible posing and display from different angles. Recreate Biollante’s clash with Godzilla and bring this iconic monster from the film into your collection.
