I can't quite put a date on when I first seen Gorgo but I know it was on BBC1 around 7PM, I'd probably guess around 1978/79. I still remember quite a bit about it but that was the last time I seen it. I did notice the other day that the full film was on KZitem so I might give it another watch.

Cheers, I love them all, just one more to come which will be amazing, then another I have preordered for next year. If I had space there is another I've seen I would love but I'll only go for that if I can make a nice area for it as don't want stuff crammed.

Wow that Gorgo looks awesome mate, I like how one foot is lifting it shows movement, the eyes and teeth are perfect, I agree it needs a consistent gloss, a shame about the scratches on the back but I'm sure you could touch those up, mate those figures all together look stunning mate

Ah cheers Scott, yeah I think they look brilliant together, and I have one special space reserved for the slowly incoming😉 Really chuffed to have a Gorgo figure after all these years, not something I ever expected to see. I've already touched those scratches up, just carefully used a sharpie and can barely see them now, also sorted out the back issue as it wasn't right. I agree the lifted foot looks good, a bit more dynamic look.

I'm not a figure person myself but these are impressive pieces you buy. I agree the back does look a bit dented but no idea if that's how it should be. Real shame about the scratches but hopefully you can touch them in Maybe they were going for a look of him drying off after exiting the sea🤔👍

@@retroimportgamer513 cheers James, I wasn't either until the '74 Godzilla but it's very addictive surrounding yourself with nostalgic figures. I now have my eye on a newly announced beauty but I need to figure out space first. The scratches I've more or less solved, and have found a way to sort the back aswell but need to so that again, definitely shouldn't be that flat.

@@Tetlee I wouldn't recommend freezing because it might return to the undesired state when it reaches room temperature. What you need is some sort of big squeezing type clamp Just remember after getting softened from the heat to squeeze it way past the point of where you want it to be so it doesn't retract to where it was when you started.

Who doesn't want to see a monster rampage through London?😉 The back I found a way to rectify by heating a remolding a bit but I need to do it again and perhaps pop in the freezer after to cool it in shape quicker. Believe me eyes facing different directions can most certainly be a thing with figures like this 😵💫 haha. Cheers for watching mate👍
