LED units light the gravity beams and the missile fire.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo head sets are included so the piece can be displayed as either the poster art or the in-film suits, and the title logo and a deformed Godzilla illustration are also made three-dimensional. The set ships with a base, a title logo stand, and a Godzilla mini statue. The LED power supply method is still undecided, so batteries or a compatible cable are sold separately.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Premium Bandai's statue ships in January 2028, roughly 16 months after pre-orders close on October 28.
