Godzilla Model Kits Action Figures
The technology of molding and casting has made it relatively easy and inexpensive to produce your own Godzilla action figures.
In general, a model kit is a scale model of, for example, a monster like Godzilla. These model figures come as kits for enthusiast to construct and paint and as pre-built, pre-painted collectable figures. No need to say that collecting Godzilla Model Kits is a addictive form of hobby.
Godzilla series model kits are as old as the beginning of the Godzilla action figures collecting hobby; they are usually divided in two categories: plastic and garage kits. Plastic kits appeared first, Garage kits started in the early 80s.
Plastic kits have been in production for many years and are considered collectible if they were produced by well-known companies like Bullmark and Marusan.
Garage Kits are usually sculpted by an individual and then molded and cast at home, often in the garage because that is the only usual place that could contain the "mess" generated by the casting process. Evidently, this gave them their name. These Godzilla Action Figures are very popular among collectors because of their great detail and creative sculpting. However, other than that, there is no market for them because they are built after purchase and since the most popular kits are reissued many times.

Garage Kits Godzilla Action Figures are more expensive
Garage kits are usually found in two flavors: resin or vinyl. The vinyl is well known but the resin is made to harden fast by using either polyester or polyurethane. As a result, the Godzilla action figures are solid instead of light and hollow, like the vinyl ones. Usually, Garage kits are produced in limited numbers and thus are more expensive than typical injection molded plastic figures and kits.
And just for the record, the all times most popular Godzilla action figures model kits are the Marusan Plamodel series; they are extremely rare, even more if found with the original package box. It is believed that these kits are the rarest of all the produced Godzilla action figures. If you see one, grab it! You will not see another again.
