It’s not bad relative to other scalpers, but it’s still bad. It’s still over what you should be paying. It’s aggravating I hated myself for buying a few toys the other year but I really wanted the characters for my show and every toy store trip was coming up dry. I’m very resentful still - I want kids to be buying these toys first and foremost
I did manage to get some of my GvK figures from Walmart but the others I had to wait and find cheap listings online. At first I thought I was just late to get them because naturally they will stop selling them at some point, but now considering scalpers and only the battle roars line are the only consistent figures I’ve seen, (or maybe that line just isn’t sealing well in general), I’m starting to get concerned.
This opened up a whole new level of nostalgia for me. Coming from a Mexican family who went to Flea Markets every Sunday I grew up with toys like these all the time, I still have a few in my attic somewhere but I remember my absolute favorite was an Anguirus figure that was just solid plastic with no articulation but something about it stuck with me, I used to take it wherever I went, I even took it to Church a few times with my family but just saying as a kid those Mexican bootlegs are more than enough. I only ever had one Bandai soft Vinyl of ‘68 Godzilla from Kmart as a kid and the bootlegs scaled nicely to it and was perfect for it, despite the low quality pain job
Mexican you are going to die but you'll play my rip off Godzilla versus Con toys dude our toys are way better than Playmates Playmates what did you say oh nothing dude okay that's it prepare the die Playmates saying raps out gun Mexicans oh s*** aboo
I like how, despite the fact this is 2022, and how far toy making technology has come, these still have that amazing pre-80's bootleg figure look right down to the sloppy, minimal painting. It's almost as if someone from Imperial Toys had a time machine, went far into the future to see what Godzilla toys would be like and brought them back and make them their selves.
Hey MIB, thanks again for brightening up the day with the power of an upload! FYI the Endgame sequence I made is my most viewed video! You practically gave them to me!!
Those Bootlegs are great! I'm from Mexico and it's very common to see this kind of figures! You should buy more, as there are some that are very worthwhile and there are others that are not so good, but in general if they are worth it! They are also good for customizing them. Greetings from Tacolandia xD
Great video. I need a set, or two, of these. I'd rather have these than the legit American ones. They just look like they'd be so much more fun. And that translucent Mecha Godzilla, I love it.
4:43 - When the cheap bootleg figure has a better character design than the official design. In all seriousness, this bootleg design of Mechagodzilla is WAY better than that butt-ugly Bayformers shit-stain we got in GVK! I’d rather have that bootleg design over the GVK design ANY day! It’s quite sad, honestly.
hope you do a part 2 on this bootleg video,also happy to see you upload again,never give up on these videos M.I.B.. also that girl you saw on the package i think is called masha and the bear..don’t remember
If you end up putting these figures in Monster island buddies you should have them only speak spanish or have multiple settings like Buzz in toy story 3
0:44 that's masha from masha and bear my siblings like that show but seeing that with Goku and Batman and ect might be a wild ride p.s love your videos mib!
Mexican here, these types of toys can be find on local markets, and some stores that sell cheaper toys. They usually sell from whatever movie or show is popular at the time, for example they used to sell transparent DBZ toys.
The little girl om the label you pointed to was Masha from the Russian CGI cartoon series ''Masha And The Bear'' , available translated to English on TH-cam.
I do have godzilla vs kong playmates toys the toys are the transparent godzilla and kong i got it from walmart but i do agree the bootlegs do be looking sort of nice especially mecha godzilla
As a Mexican I tell you that……… you missed the best ones. The best Mexican bootlegs are the ones with translucent plastic and a big ass hole in the middle of their back with a button that lights up their belly with all sorts of lights.
I own the Godzilla and Kong figures from the second set, but these are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of Mexican bootlegs, like an other fairly common bootleg is the imperial Godzilla but scaled down a bit, and they come in different sizes, colors and patterns. One day i even found what it seemed to be a bootleg version of the Mechagodzilla 2 figure by Sh monsterarts, but it was black and red with very little articulation, but the mold really looked identical to the Sh figure.
Damn it MIB! I saw the thumbnail and got the idea that the next episode of the show was already up. And that Minilla and Kong Jr were finally going to square off lol 😆. You crafty sob.
0:17 actually it wasnt really the scalpers its actually both walmart that did this since as people say that they never restock these products literally
I was lucky enough to get one regular Godzilla, Kong and MechaGodzilla off the shelves before they all vanished. But I love these bootlegs. Especially that first Godzilla. He's so chunky. Reminds me of Trend Masters.
Yes , i get the Mechagodzilla mexican bootleg for 7 dollars in a “Tianguis” , after time i get the original for 12 dollars , the quality in the Bootlegs in Mexico is “strange” , if we also talk about the fact that they are made of garbage plastic by default, and to think that there are people who say "MEXICAN PRIDE" when for me they are not even well made to begin with Godzilla molds look like the American godzilla of 1998 with overweight and in the case Kong is more similar to Peter Jackson's Kong but with Steroids and poorly proportioned
I myself went ahead and purchased Mexican bootlegs of Godzilla vs Kong figures which included Godzilla,Mechagodzilla, Kong 1 &2 and two Skull Crawlers. I also tested them for led but they came out positive.
It has been a while since i went to a flea market where the bootlegs flood almost every stand, but i remember seeing dragonball, pokémon and Ben 10 figurines made out of this translucent colored soft plastic, those were everywhere and also pretty cool
MIB, that's a great video. That Homer Simpson joke was great. I would recommend you getting that figure, the jokes with the with it on Skull Island on the show would be pretty funny.
This gives me nostalgia Coming from a Mexican family I'll always get one or two from flee markets as a kid and play with them And sometimes they are better than the real thing
So, as a mexican I could explain a little more about the figures(which are very common to see on diferent places. This figures are obviusly fake,but yes, there are MANY types of those figures, of pokemon, super mario, dragon ball even FNAF figures, and also the godzilla figures, these 2 are the more detalied, some of them have light and even sound, the figures are arround 1 dollar, we can see it on tianguis (very cheap markets), oh and I forgot to say that I have 3 bootleg figures, 2 of GvK and the other one is an enormous thermo godzilla with sound. and yes, I have seen this guys lots of times Pd:sorry if my english is a little wrong, I don't know how to speak it very well Pd 2:there is another kiryu which is very detailed
Oh it took me so long to finally get the figures I wanted in that set I had to settle on the large mechagodzilla cuz no stores around me had the 12-in figure until recently but I did match get my hands on Hong Kong battle Godzilla and a skull crawler
I can at least hypothesize for you all that the shortage of these figures isn't just scalpers. I've worked at Walmart unloading trucks during their release and I almost NEVER see packages for these toys come off the truck. I only got my Warbat and MechaGodzilla from taking them straight out of the box and that was only one time that I was able to catch it. Playmates just isn't sending them in, at least in my area (no, we can't just order more, it's actually not possible).
The begining skit is super accurate, the only Godzilla vs Kong toy I would find at Wal-Mart was Battle Roar Godzilla but I don't want that, I wanted a Skull Crawler
Where do I get these? I love these soild lumps of funky smelling plastic that looks like they could have handled seriously harsh playtimes from me as a kid.
Bootleg toys are so awesome! I mean, they're so unique and often goofy. They can have wild colors and are simply fun! Just don't ever put them in your mouth.
0:44: Monster Island Buddies, I believe that girl is from the Russian cartoon Masha and the Bear.
Yep.
That is Masha.
The very idea of that lame cartoon having the audacity to be on the same card as Saint Seyia and DBZ characters makes me sad.
@@mightyfilm The bootleggers probably didn’t know or care.
@@briancoulombe4517 they don't know their franchises at all.
0:13 yup that’s been my experience for the most part. Damn scalpers.
Me to could not find warbat at all
I knew I had no chance in finding warbat or Mecha Godzilla so I got them off EBay in a double pack for $35 which isn’t bad.
It’s not bad relative to other scalpers, but it’s still bad. It’s still over what you should be paying. It’s aggravating
I hated myself for buying a few toys the other year but I really wanted the characters for my show and every toy store trip was coming up dry. I’m very resentful still - I want kids to be buying these toys first and foremost

Anguirus the devout Christian🙏🛐
Anguiruis is a mad of God.
Even if I grew up in Texas and Mexican I had most of these
A kid toy needs imagination too have fun with it
I just came from Mexico, and i saw multiple of these. One of the sets had a gigan but white and blue claws. Wish i took a picture
That actually sounds like a cool design for gigan
SHUT UP VIVA MÉXICO 🦧
Mexican you are going to die but you'll play my rip off Godzilla versus Con toys dude our toys are way better than Playmates Playmates what did you say oh nothing dude okay that's it prepare the die Playmates saying raps out gun Mexicans oh s*** aboo
Wait what's happening in the garage and that immediately kill them the bootleg videos Monopoly fight with this s***

I needed an MIB video RN. Thanks for always coming in, in a pinch. You always mow me feel great
Those toys are bad ass! I’ve always loved bootlegged stuff!
0:44 she's from Masha and the Bear, a Russian cartoon that my niece loves.
True😊
Bootlegs & knockoffs are endlessly fascinating to collect as you never know what kind of bizarre craziness you’re going to discover next 😄
The bootleg Mecha Godzilla looks better than the actual movie one lmao.
Hey MIB, thanks again for brightening up the day with the power of an upload! FYI the Endgame sequence I made is my most viewed video! You practically gave them to me!!
Hey Monster Island Buddies, when I went to Mexico, I saw this bluish Type 3 Kiryu with a black tip snd legit bought it. I still have him in my house
I’ve watched your channel since 2010 it’s amazing seeing you still upload here gives me nostalgia
Those Bootlegs are great!

No sé cómo le hago para encontrarte en tantos videos
@@kamokaiju8555 Buenas bro,Tampoco se como es que me encuentras xD
Xd
But that thumbnail Kong tho
Edit: Jokes aside, I'd like some of those knockoffs tbh
Lol these actually look pretty cool, reminds me of the imperial Godzilla figures. They could also be great for customizing and painting
Me being Mexican American,this is the reason why I want to go to Mexico 🇲🇽
No vayas a México cabron ya no ay agua
Great video. I need a set, or two, of these. I'd rather have these than the legit American ones. They just look like they'd be so much more fun. And that translucent Mecha Godzilla, I love it.
Kid: "Mom can we get a toy Godzilla and King Kong"
Mom: "You already have a toy Godzilla and King Kong"
Toy Godzilla and King Kong
The Kong bootlegs all have a heavy *"Imperial"* vibe to them, hell one of them even has the trademark red lipstick!
I really liked that Rodan Charizard, Korn Kongis the 1st and the Electric Avenue blue Gorezilla. Great vid my guy!
You know Godzilla is still beloved worldwide because of all the bootlegs.
0:26: What I find hilarious that's the NECA of King Kong mold but turned into a Mexican bootleg soft vinyl 😂
0:33 this kong is actually really good!
We've got Godzilla vs. Kong at home... Godzilla vs Kong en casa...😅
4:43 - When the cheap bootleg figure has a better character design than the official design.

I thinks its based on that popular fanart everyone stole for TH-cam thumbnails when MG was rumored
@@jesusramirezromo2037 Still, it's better than the design we actually got in GVK.
You wild Savages the Mecha Godzilla from Godzilla versus Kong is way better than this bull crap it's way more movable and is faster
@@kristenA0513 Its also a shit design, its bayformers levels of cluttered crap
hope you do a part 2 on this bootleg video,also happy to see you upload again,never give up on these videos M.I.B..
also that girl you saw on the package i think is called masha and the bear..don’t remember
Damn it's funny to me that people around the world love that Mexican bootlegs and a lot of fans of Mexico looks this things and laugh 😂
If you want some bootlegs let me now . I seen a lot of weird bootleg things.
I like the Mechagodzilla. It reminds me of those transparent Aliens toys from Kenner!
1:28 I thought you were gonna say you found some drugs in the gigan figure
I wouldn’t be surprised.
I found a mexican bootleg pack called godzilla vs jesus
Wtf😮
It looks like the first set was sculpted by hand with how rodan and the skull crawler looks
If you end up putting these figures in Monster island buddies you should have them only speak spanish or have multiple settings like Buzz in toy story 3
"Here's a Godzilla toy. Here's a Kong toy. Let them fight." ISWYDT
this second Godzilla toyss bootleg is actually perfect cut and nice toy from mexico
Man, the Sense Of Right Alliance expanded a lot since the last time we saw it. They even got two versions of Mazinger.
I'm from Mexico and I really love this, there are others with a more big size that are awesome in the sculpting and painting.
0:44 that's masha from masha and bear my siblings like that show but seeing that with Goku and Batman and ect might be a wild ride p.s love your videos mib!

I’ve got a robot kong boot just like that XD
The Godzilla at 3:25 looks like a bootleg of the 2019 Jakks Pacific KOTM line if you ask me.
That girl in pink 0:49 from the first moment is actually something I watched as a kid
I own the Godzilla and Kong figures from the second set, but these are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of Mexican bootlegs, like an other fairly common bootleg is the imperial Godzilla but scaled down a bit, and they come in different sizes, colors and patterns.

The Kong toy at 0:29 looks like the og 1933 Kong but 2021 style
I love all of these playtime videos!
Okay, but why is Mexican Kong #2 looking like the Rock? he's even giving Godzilla the eyebrow
Yes , i get the Mechagodzilla mexican bootleg for 7 dollars in a “Tianguis” , after time i get the original for 12 dollars , the quality in the Bootlegs in Mexico is “strange” , if we also talk about the fact that they are made of garbage plastic by default, and to think that there are people who say "MEXICAN PRIDE" when for me they are not even well made to begin with Godzilla molds look like the American godzilla of 1998 with overweight and in the case Kong is more similar to Peter Jackson's Kong but with Steroids and poorly proportioned
Wait, are those playmates really going for that much on EBay?? They’re shelf warming hard at my local stores lol
In my area it’s like a weird mix of both outcomes
WHERE IS YOUR LOCAL STORE???
I myself went ahead and purchased Mexican bootlegs of Godzilla vs Kong figures which included Godzilla,Mechagodzilla, Kong 1 &2 and two Skull Crawlers. I also tested them for led but they came out positive.
This is so much better than $100 extra
That bootleg Mexican Mechagodzilla is more of a Mechagodzilla than the one in the Legendary film! How the whuck did that happen?!?!?
It has been a while since i went to a flea market where the bootlegs flood almost every stand, but i remember seeing dragonball, pokémon and Ben 10 figurines made out of this translucent colored soft plastic, those were everywhere and also pretty cool
I honestly can't believe that Mexican bootleg toys are still being made in the present day
Cómo mexicano solo diré..¡Estan chidas!
MIB, that's a great video. That Homer Simpson joke was great. I would recommend you getting that figure, the jokes with the with it on Skull Island on the show would be pretty funny.
I never thought I'd see MIB talk good about bootleg figures.
Is that liquid from the lead tester on your hands or is the paint from the bootlegs rubbing off?
liquid - you can actually see it drip on my finger during the lead test
@@MonsterIslandBuddies hi
Wish these were on the markets of Mexico when I grew up. Would’ve gone absolutely crazy for them.
I’m still missing the Warbat thanks to scalpers 😔
Idk how I was able to get Mechagodzilla
They all look hilarious but look at the Kongs! They are just so derpy its too much-
1:44 the little wattle! look at him go~
0:03 Just takes me back.
0:12 Yeah that’s about right
This gives me nostalgia
Coming from a Mexican family I'll always get one or two from flee markets as a kid and play with them
And sometimes they are better than the real thing
That Mechagodzilla has a very nice atomic blue look. Very fitting.
There are also huge ones, bigger than neca's 12 inch one
So, as a mexican I could explain a little more about the figures(which are very common to see on diferent places.

Actually that mechagodzilla looks like the Hong Kong battle Godzilla but with silver details to it
0:38 Like the mix of Pokémon, DragonBall, & Paw Patrol characters.😅🤣😂

5:34 you can see that Mexican gojira has some big eyes while in the Philippines the colors of its eyes were all white
I bought one of thesis sets and it had bugs in side the tail
0:45 Marsha and the bear
awsome video bootlegs are just special
You should probably do a video on other bootleg kaiju toys. I think it'll be fun to do
Hope they veckne reoccurring characters like Girl-gan kinda was
@@jacobc8036 I would like to know what the packaging of that Gigan bootleg looked like. Like, what did they called that figure?
Those Godzilla figures are really cool they're really something I want them
5:38 haha good one
O:38 Of course Mexico would put Saint Seiya, PKMN, DB & Mazinger Z on the same package art.😆
As a Mexican viewer, I’ve seen these in America as well. You will mostly find them in local Latino Swap meets.
some of the GVK toys are popping up at Targets
“ And here’s a gecko” 😂😂
Yeah those dang scalpers on eBay just keep over pricing stuff
In the UK official GvK toys are in in all the major toy shops with abundance.
do you think these toys are based on larger molds or something? A lot of bootleg toys are that.
The third Kong toy you showed kind of reminded me of art from a movie poster from the original King Kong film.
this gave me so many chuckles
That Warbat Bootleg just keeps falling over 😂
Obviously Anguris is making these on the side by hand so he can afford rent. He's putting in the work and gonna eventually get his break.
Hey MIB Do you have all the
GVK Toys By Playmates?
Where do I get these? I love these soild lumps of funky smelling plastic that looks like they could have handled seriously harsh playtimes from me as a kid.

The “Girl From Hoodwinked” is Masha from “Masha and the Bear” some cartoon that was moved to Netflix.
