On Monster Island - a Godzilla & Kaiju Podcast

"The Tattooed Titan of Tokusatsu" Jacob Walsh and Jay Key returned from Japan with cart loads of toys, collectibles, and sofubi, representing everything from Godzilla to Ultraman to Spectreman to Zone Fighter. Whether it was at Mandarake or the Godzilla Store in Tokyo or Hobby Jungle or Astro-Zombies in Osaka, they managed to pick up cool items from Marusan, Medicom Toy, Bandai, FrogTree, Fewture Models, US Toys, Marmit, and many more. Not only do they talk toys - they spend a few minutes chatting about the two big pieces of movie news: Sam Neill joining the MonsterVerse and Toho confirming that the Yamazaki Godzilla project will be a direct sequel to Godzilla -1.0.---YHS on Monster Island is the premier kaiju / tokusatsu / Godzilla podcast - YouTube show, covering everything throughout the giant monster landscape, from films to fandom, television to toys. The two daikaiju devotees review old monster movies, discuss weekly toy pickups, rank anything that can be ranked, and, generally, just have a grand ol' time.

Jake and Jay finally complete their review of the Rebirth of Mothra trilogy with 1998's, Rebirth of Mothra 3. Can a re-designed King Ghidorah save the trilogy?

In addition, there's a lot of Godzilla and kaiju toy and sofubi news from a host of makers - X-Plus, Marusan, Sunguts, etc. - and from a ton of upcoming events such as Siccaluna Fest, Treasure Festa Online, and more. What a great time to be a kaiju fan! Lastly, it's a historic week on the pickups front as both Jake and Jay have two of their greatest hauls to date - and make a big dent in their Top 10 wishlists!
