Getting this chonkie boi regardless but yeah, it’s with said chonk that I’m getting a Peter Jackson’s King Kong vibe from him. The articulation is great, hopefully all the positives from the two Kong releases gives us an amazing GxK Kong. Great review as always my brotha and congrats on the Hiya Toys collaboration!!!
That buck could be a good usage for one or some of Skar King's Loyalists. Hoping Hiya does make some of them especially since some of us don't customs.
the face looks pretty good, it looks like Kong but the torso is kinda idk man it's kinda thick. personally i like Kong 2021 more! let's see what Hiya has in store for us for the GxK line!
The reason they had cgi model for the skull crawler but not kong is becuse it was i.l.m (industrial light and magic) who did the cgi on skull island and hiya might not have had acces to one of the biggest cgi Companys models. Then how do they have the skull crawler model then???? My gusse is they used the model from gvk not skull island (sorry if i made any spelling mistakes)
Don’t even worry about the spelling mistakes, because I think you’re right on the money there! Never occurred to me at all that the Skullcrawler was likely just an asset from GvK. Damn. Good noodle!
This figure really makes me wish Hiyatoys would either go back and redo their planet of the Apes figures or get to make some for Kingdom of the planet of the apes 😅
Sorry if is a hard question but , I have a Hiya toys Godzilla 2019 figure that i recently buy that it has 2 small articulation parts stuck in the tail , when I try to move it it doesn’t move it only rotates a little bit I have tried to heat the affected part with a dryer and it doesn't work . I have also submerged it in hot water while it was covered with a bag and it doesn't work either. Taking into account your experience with this type of figures I wanted to ask you this question.
My only suggestion when faced with this issue is keep trying with the heating method. Maybe keep it under the hair dryer a bit longer, some joints (as I’ve seen) can be REALLY stuck and need a bit more the heat and a jostle to really get them going. Just be careful, is all.
The thiccness of this figure at all as yes it's not 100% accurate it still looks looks like a young kong from the monsterverse and way more like a monsterverse accurate kong then SHMA
Yes, Thiccness aside, he’s still got his higher points! SHMA may still have the articulation game played but… oof.. their Kong is uh. Not great. lol I’m all for Hiya to continue experimenting and perfecting the craft!
The material for this figure is lighter than previous Hiya releases, and while yes, he does have a bit of gloss on him, I think they made the right decision to go lighter. Feels like they opened the figure up more. The only downside being the 50/50 accurate representation.
I'd rather have had a frowning face, like the one he shows for 90% of his screen time, than the tree that he has for all of 5 seconds in the movie. I'm glad you agree that he should have had that face.
I think at this point, the GxK version will likely become the main model for GvK Kong, if ever there is a reissue. Very much hoping that it’s the perfect combination.
WHY ARE WE NOT GETTING THE MONKEY CHEEKS THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Harold from Figuremania pointed out how it looks like this waist fits better with the GvK one, vice versa. I wonder if someone would do that so that the rest of us could see how it looks. If it is better, I probably would buy duplicate of both to make it.
seeing the change and progression in the sculpt for Kong, In the New Kong in comparison to these previous Ones,Is so cool. On The new Upcoming, You can really see his Body details, His fur, The accuracy is on Point. and seeing all if this, Without actual promotional pictures for him, says enough.as they say Hiya is cooking, and i’m all here for it
1:10 is the funniest part to me for some reason. 8:11 When this figure was shown off in promos, I knew there something off. Seeing it side by side with stills from the movie, it's very apparent the likeness was somewhat missed. At least Hiya will know their little goof from this vid (Congrats on the sponsor from them!)
Awesome Review yet again Rob! Yeah he does look a bit off but from certain angles he did match that of the Movie, for example here 10:11 at least imo. But overall a nice MONKE BOI! still can't believe Suko is as bog as this Kong...🤣 ALSO WHERE THA CHEEKS?!🫣
Another great review Rob and also congrats on the partnership with hiya! Keep up the great videos 🔥 Yes your welcome with the 5 dollar patreon sub and official join in to help out with your journey on making more great content. Kind regards rob 👍🏼
Now that you’re sponsored by Hiya toys, I hope that they look at your concerns with this figure and release an updated figure in the future (movie accurate fur version with a neutral expression head piece, and maybe a chain propeller for the skulldevil fight)
If they do look into my comments, I hope it’ll only add to a peak GxK Kong. It would be nice to get the “Deluxe” treatment for KSI Kong further down the line, I won’t deny that.
If ya like this Kong Figure, Consider INS Hobby! - inshobby.com/ftxc9y
A Kong that looks like the GvK one but moves like this one would go so hard
Oh it absolutely would!
Which has me very curious and hyped for the GxK version 👀
Right! They could pull a version 2.0 with the KSI body and GxK details!
Are you worried about the cheeks?!
Yeah and it would be nice if it didn’t only have a roaring head and a resting bitch face head
Yes.@@ShinRobjira
This Kong is incredible, can’t wait for either a new GvK Kong or GxK figure with this added articulation!

The articulation is great, hopefully all the positives from the two Kong releases gives us an amazing GxK Kong. Great review as always my brotha and congrats on the Hiya Toys collaboration!!!
The body looks like a mixture of 2005 King Kong and 2017 Kong
That buck could be a good usage for one or some of Skar King's Loyalists. Hoping Hiya does make some of them especially since some of us don't customs.
I like the skull devil more but this one is still cool
And live your collection
Love I ment
Thank ya, fam!
the face looks pretty good, it looks like Kong but the torso is kinda idk man it's kinda thick. personally i like Kong 2021 more! let's see what Hiya has in store for us for the GxK line!
Personally, I like the bulkier Kong so this doesn’t make or break it at all for me. I’ll definitely pick this one up over GvK
Im still not szre if i should get this or wait a re-tool of the gvk Kong…
I like the NECA kong
It looks the same as 2021, but it's bit different.
skull island kong looks younger than 2021.
This Skull Island Kong figure kind of looks like GVK Kong.
Where are the bananas
He ate them, just look at him.
He’s all fiber. Too much fiber.
How dare they take the precious monke cheeks from us!
They know not what they have done. Only in time will the wounds and cheeks heal 😞

Good noodle!
Looks nothing like his movie counterpart :(
While true, he’s still very much an upgrade from the GvK Kong in terms of articulation.
A mixed Monke bag.
But at least it’s not ALL downers here.
This figure really makes me wish Hiyatoys would either go back and redo their planet of the Apes figures or get to make some for Kingdom of the planet of the apes 😅
I'm here after Hiya revealed their new figures at San Diego Comicon. GxK Kong looks perfect and has the shoulder system this figure has.
Kong boi lookin like Hank Hill from the back! 😂😂😂😂
Jahahahahhaah!!
LMFAOOOOOOOO
BWAAAA!

@@ShinRobjiraThank you so much , I’m subscribing for your attention on your followers and to never lose your content
Why does he have a more strong man build than kong 2021
I guess it’s the Kong Mold Reboot or something lol
For every 1 like this comment gets I will do a jumping squat and sit-up

Is it smaller than other figures, yes
Is it still good, yes
does it look like a drunk middle aged father,
YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSS.
That was awesome figure. And guess what? I did watched Godzilla & Kong The New Empire movie in the AMC theater with my friends today.
Im sorry but he kinda looks cheap.. he is kinda glossy and the face paint is kinda weird. Maybe its just me

@@ShinRobjira lighter kong figures are better I guess, I never really likes gxk playmates kong being heavy since it is harder to pose

This figure really makes me NOT want to own the GvK figure, I rather wait for a reissue someday
I think at this point, the GxK version will likely become the main model for GvK Kong, if ever there is a reissue. Very much hoping that it’s the perfect combination.
This video was made I say after my birthday
🎫📼📹🎥🎬😱KONG 2017 🆚 GODZILLA 2014 😡
That'd be sik
It’s not even a fight
He obviously cut off on the Big Macs between skull island and GvK
The McTitan Titan Mac is not good for a growing Monke.
1:26 this is my favourite part
No monke cheeks 😞
A crime against all Monke cheek 😞
@@ShinRobjiraindeed a crime agents monke cheek 😢
MONKE CHEEKS, WHAT HAPPENED???
ABOLISHED. BANISHED. THROWN TO THE SHADOW REALM.
True horrors.
Vanished reduced to atoms ⚛️
Gone ,reduced to atoms
WHY ARE WE NOT GETTING THE MONKEY CHEEKS THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry Rob the S.H MonsterArts
Kong 2024's monkey cheeks have been murdered

DREDGE MENTIONED.
IMMEDIATE PEAK CONTENT.
LEVIATHAN LEVEL PEAK.
Hiya toys Kong looks good but he didn’t look like a sumo and he’s thinner than he looks. Btw, the ass cheek is so funny.
Just recently got the g21 beam/Translucent godzilla and I absolutely love it
Yeah mannn Translucent Goji is a work of art! Didn’t think they’d be able to beat the first Heat Ray version. Boy howdy did they.
Monke. I made it before the noti AND the discord noti :)
I appreciate your haste :)
I was exited that i could get a figure of my favourite kong design but now i thing hiya screwed up with kong.
Over glorified playmates kong
1:10 is the funniest part to me for some reason.

Nice vid, bro
Thank you sir 🫡!
Monkey can change his size now with his legs
I hope they make another gvk this one is just to brown for me
Hiya Toys must make King Kong (2005) 🤞🤞
Did Kong get plastic surgery?
Hopefully they get GxK version right.
The body felt more like 1962 King Kong to me.
Worst ass nerf since Solid Snake in smash ultimate 🍑🚫
this looks like a bootleg, that paint is uhh weird to say the least
Awesome Review yet again Rob!

ALSO WHERE THA CHEEKS?!🫣

Great video my friend
Nice
YUNG MONKEEEEEE
Hiya is soooo close to striking Gold with Kong, if they fix the sculpt, keep the articulation, it will be better than SHMA.
Playmates seemed to have done the same thing with one of their skull island kong figure, they made him a bit more plump.
I made this have 777 likes 😊
Its kong but a potato...😂
Oh, when you look at this Kong and you may see a Ron Perlman expression in it.
Another great review Rob and also congrats on the partnership with hiya! Keep up the great videos 🔥

SHMA sweep
Maybe I’m crazy but I want a like… 2 inch tall Kong and Skull Devil to scale with the other movies lol
wow robbie criasy
wow
I feel like the color is off, should be more orange?
like a brownish yea
1:13 not again
on the fence of getting this one, love the articulation but the torso piece and color is throwing me off since I'm crazy for accuracy
Like holy hell they even put detail for the dark brown withering/wear in the center of the moulers for the roar head hiya goin the extra mile
THE CAKE NOOOOO 😭😭😭
THEY BANISHED HIS MONKE CAKE 😭
hu
Hi
Ain’t no way! My favouriye Kong!
His cheeks are like the Grand Canyon, flat ground with a crack going through it.
This is peak new age poetry 🔥
It may not be accurate, but that articulation is what the doctor ordered.
is it just me or does GVK kongs head look like a goblin
Nice review and cool figure
Thanks fam, glad ya enjoyed!
Now what we need is a GxK version with the beast Glove
All hail our Hiya Overlords!!
Bandai kong is always better than hiya.think they will make a greater one for gxk
Boycott Hiya for not giving our boy his CHEEKS!
MONKE SPINS 0:00
HE MONKE COPTER REAL GOOOOOOOOD

Kong devolved his cheeks😭
He went too hard on upper body exercises😞
Monkeeyyeeyyeyeye
MONKE ISLAND MONKE
The reason why they’re neutering Kongs cheeks is because Kong doesn’t need a gyacht
Yes he does. This is a crime against monke
@Pam-kh4sz
The fuck did you say about the monkey cheeks?!
The back of his head is kindaaa weird
