In tandem with the animation reveal, was the reveal and announcement of "S.H.MonsterArts Gamera"! Preorders open "April 6th", with a release scheduled for "August 2023" (MRRP: 13,750 yen).
This "Kaiju Gamera" was "recreated using the 3D data from the upcoming mini series capturing all the minute details of this iconic Kaiju."
Gamera (Japanese: ガメラ, Hepburn: Gamera) is a fictional monster, or kaiju, originating from a series of Japanese films, who made his debut in 1965 with "Gamera, the Giant Monster" - the "Full" 1hour 18minuter (English dubbed) movie watchable below...!
Wiki describes Gamera as "a giant, fire-breathing, prehistoric turtle kaiju, mutated by exposure to nuclear weapons" (the "sewage scene" in the animated Netflix series felt like a homage to TMN). GAMERA was meant to compete with Toho's GODZILLA, with ultimately what sets it apart from being "yet another kaiju creation", was his evolved protector of children and humanity, a point we no doubt will witness in the new animated series on Netflix, with a focus on the "children" in the trailer making more sense now :)
