Would be awesome if Toho released some sort of "Generations" line which featured rereleases of the Trendmasters series. Or at the very least, original figures heavily based on them.
Wow. I’m just realizing my VERY first Godzilla toy was from Doom Island. Has the exact same pose as one of the Godzillas towards the end. Found it on a vacation in PA a long time ago. And I actually got it for a few bucks. Not bad for a kid, considering these are sought after. That one toy is what actually got me into Godzilla, I just saw it and thought “cool dinosaur”. Dad saw what I bought and told me as soon as we got home, he would show me some old Godzilla movies. And that day, my love for the franchise was born. Thanks for helping me solve a decade old mystery, MiB. I knew he was from Trendmasters for awhile now...but I never knew exactly which line he was from.
7:52 I think Destoroyah's chest opening is likely a reference to a scrapped power he was originally going to have in one of the deleted scenes of Godzilla vs Destoroyah where his chest would spilt open and he blasts a beam out of it. Since there's concept art of him using this power. There's a likely implication that TrendMasters was heavily informed about it and the sketch was given to them by Toho while the film was probably still in production at the time.
Very possible. But it's also possible that it's a coincidence, according to the trendmasters prototype group on Facebook, all the mega mutation toys were planned to have chest openings.
Imaging a third party company took the concept of doom island godzilla figures but ads way more possibility, extra detail and more accessories. I would honestly buy it cause these figures have potential. They definitely deserve a chance
I had arachnophobia BAD as a kid, especially with large, exaggerated fake ones. Fondling around in a K.B. Toys discount bin, only to accidentally grab one of those would have sent be running out of the store.
Man, I wish Trendmasters continued. I was born at the end of the 90s, so I sadly missed out on all the good stuff. At least I have some luck on eBay. Pray for my wallet.
Great video MIB! As someone who grew up with trendmasters Godzilla (particularly the Godzilla wars line) I would have loved the doom island line as a child, especially with Destoroyah. Damn shame these have never been released and is now like a holy grail for Godzilla collectors. Looking forward to your next video on the especially rare Godzilla the series toy line!!!
I like that this channel went from a series with Godzilla toys doing silly things, along with plots thrown in, to a man who just simply collects Godzilla merchandise
@@EvilOttoJrProductions Well they are 2 different characters. They haven't done a Minilla because they know he won't sell good. While Godzilla Jr. is heavily beloved for being a Goji child
I remember having the Supercharged Godzilla 6" figure! Maybe I still have it somewhere... That 6" Spacegodzilla I had too, although I think mine was a knock-off... Great video as always MIB! 👏🏻
I absolutely love this video!! As a collector, this answered a lot of questions I always had about Doom Island! I'm in love with that Kumonga!! I really wish they made that Manda figure ☠😭
Very awesome dive into these cool figures history man! I love that 4inch Goji with the huge tail too, really menacing looking! I had almost all the figures from the original run, 10inch etc. I really wish I took better care of my stuff as a child lol. I still managed to hold on to some of them despite a few being in bad condition.
Damn, I wish I could've of gotten a line of toys that also came with a bonus army of unnecessary raptors PS: nice teaser for the Zilla animated series line
online i saw that there's someone who is making custom Trendmasters kamakurusis and they have great articulation and pretty spot-on paint and there rare to come by so if you are able to get one i recommend it.
I feel like Doom Island is where after Final Wars, the aliens came back but now with armor and the old monsters Godzilla fought, so the people traveled to an island where Godzilla and the people fought the monsters to save the world
I love this channel so much. You have such an amazing 🤩 collection of Godzilla toys. I could watch your videos and the entirety your collection. I love Godzilla and I love you MIB.
Genie: You have 3 wishes. Me: I wish Trendmasters would release the Godzilla Doom Island sets. Genie: Yeah what the hell is up with that anyway. Good wish bro, you still have 3 wishes.
Nah, I know the one you're talking about ($1557! holy crap!), but it was the 5" one; MIB got this 10" one from the guy he mentions a few times in the video, though I imagine the price point was similar.
I knew about the kamacarus figure, but didn’t know about the manda! It would have been so cool to get a American manda figure! Just seeing the concept art made my Jaw drop
I had that 10in. SpaceGodzilla as a kid, it was one of my favorite toys. Really loved the colors on it and its roar. I really wish I still had it and would love to get another one, one day.
Holy shit as soon as you mentioned the double packs with the dinosaurs, I remember picking up the Mecha King Ghidorah at a car-boot sale when I was a kid! I pointed it out excited and my grandparents paid for it for me, it was like, a maximum of £5 but I don't even think it was that much! Boxed and everything!
I just had an idea for what this toy line may have been. A sort of “Heisei era what if” Plot: Recently, monster Island was blown up by scientists and is now a firey wasteland. Several new, super dangerous monsters, including Destroyah and his army of resurrected dinosaurs, were created by the blast. The military has found a way to communicate to our heroes, and have supplied them with an arsenal of weapons to fight with. Can Godzilla and his allies save monster island from Destroyah’s rampage of terror. Collect all the toys to find out.
Also, there was supposed to be Godzilla The Animated Series Toyline that was planned in late 1998 or early 1999 by Trendmasters, but that Toyline was never produced.
I still have Mecha Godzilla, Godzilla and Mecha King Ghidorah double packs complete with T. rex raptors stegosaurus and pterodactyl. Opened but still pretty mint from a Christmas way back in the 90’s.
I love the action feature on the Mega Mutation Destoroyah. It's apparently based on an unused ability he would have had in the movie, and why his belly looks the way it does.
How did you get the trendmasters Godzilla the series figures my siblings love the series and when found out they had toys they were so excited but I can’t find them
Don't mind me just watching a TH-camr thats actually worth my time.
SOINC
@@muhammadkamilfarruddin2789 talk about low budget flights no food or movie's I'm out of here
Sonic adventure reference
I hate to say it but I think komakiris was probably sold at a garage sale as a mantis figure unknowingly. Happens more than you think.
HOLY SHIT CHRIS HI DIDNT KNOW YOU WATCHED MIB
Uhh hi guys
@@nicotinecnts he is one of my top 5 favorite TH-cam channels to watch especially the mib series.
@@nicotinecnts no joke the scene were Godzilla looked at gaurosaures and said get the fuck out had me laughing so hard
@@airsoftfatty1234 Who’s your favorite kaiju Airsoft?
Honestly Toho has to make these, they all have an amazing design and amazing accessories
Would be awesome if Toho released some sort of "Generations" line which featured rereleases of the Trendmasters series. Or at the very least, original figures heavily based on them.
I want the Godzilla vs Kong figures
The need to change were the buttons are though
I mean, DINOSAURS VS GODZILLA
How’s that not a toy line?
@@Seadinos56783 Yes
This channel has continuously improved throughout the years and I can't wait to see where it goes from here
Right as I'm thinking "why did they add rocket launchers to the spines?"
MIB: Who cares it looks cool!
I thought you meant Men In Black 😂
8:05 Holy crap, those ribs! 😳 It’s like the Godzilla / D’Compose mashup i never knew i needed! 😱

name another person who would give this much of a production to these over the top godzilla figures from the 90s
ME. Because most of them came from me. And we share that love... ;)
Imaging a third party company took the concept of doom island godzilla figures but ads way more possibility, extra detail and more accessories. I would honestly buy it cause these figures have potential. They definitely deserve a chance
Mib: makes a contest
Me: knowing full well that i wont win
Lmao same
Who knows.There is always the possibility.
@@kaijualphagodzilla1238 1 in 7400 chance now and getting worse LOL
Still worth a shot.🙂
Same lol
That Kumonga would probably have triggered lots of peoples' arachnophobia if it had gotten a mass release
I had arachnophobia BAD as a kid, especially with large, exaggerated fake ones. Fondling around in a K.B. Toys discount bin, only to accidentally grab one of those would have sent be running out of the store.

I have no luck with ebay lol i tried to buy a 6 inch trendmaster godzilla toy
But way to pricey
"Do Da Ting Win Radioactive-Lizard an Konky-Dong"
(My brain........"Hell Yeah")
What if Doom Island was a stand in for Skull Island? We’ll never know
What if Doom island was a Doom crossover?
The the monsters are screwed.
I won't like your comment. Why? Because as of I'm writing this, your comment has 69 likes, and I won't be the one who will ruin it.

TOHO HAS TO BRING THESE BACK
Does Trendmasters still exist?!
EDIT- Sadly Trendmasters closed in 2002
@@thatonea-hole yes yes they do
Yeah jakks pacific bought them so I hope they rerelease the toys just like how the aliens and predator Kenner type toys are back
@@thatonea-hole technically, they do still exist since Jakks Pacific bought the majority of what was left of them after they folded.
@@leoneabbachio6249 jakks? The guys who made the KOTM figures?
Trendmasters was legendary in my childhood. It was Everything!! The gods of Godzilla figure.
OMG GODZILLA THE ANIMATED SERIES YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAH.
The T-rex from that canceled Doom Island series, looks like Sharptooth from the Land Before Time.
Yeah, just had a shorter tail
Oh I see I'm not the only one who thought this
I would legit kill every single person on this planet with my bear hands just to get an actual figure of my god, Sharptooth.
Really disappointed they never released these. It would have been so very cool.
For an April fools release SHMA should make a Minilla. It would be hilarious.
They had a 1994 Little Godzilla; I don't think Minilla is very far fetched honestly
@@EvilOttoJrProductions Well they are 2 different characters. They haven't done a Minilla because they know he won't sell good. While Godzilla Jr. is heavily beloved for being a Goji child
@@OG.Trippster Minilla probably would sell simply for the memes

It’s really good to find youtubers who puts actual effort into videos with jokes that are actually funny.
Oh good another legendary Godzilla with some changes
Also me wishing I can just have one of the figures
Hey I don’t know if the king will respond but do you have any sh monsterarts figures?
I would assume so.
@@masonfaraday9020 He made a stop motion of them
@@the9der352 no most of those are from N.E.C.A
@@MythKatana No? None are
“Some very,very exciting unfinished business.” So that what those are.
Give Jonathan my respect. Those concept artworks must have been hard to find. Totally worth it though.
Thank you!!
Damn it I need those sh Monsterarts fiqures.
Yessir my one of my favorite Godzilla Tuber
4:21
Pieck: Finally worthy opponent our battle will be legendary
Not only is the Monster Island Buddies series great, but I love the toy and video game reviews as well. I love your channel MIB! 👍
This is easily like, my favorite youtube channel right now, great job
Woohoo. Another video!!!!! Thank you MIB. Happy Holidays to you good sir.👍👍👊
Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸🇺🇲
Love the video. Thanks for shedding more light on this fantastic toy line that should have been.
I absolutely love this video!! As a collector, this answered a lot of questions I always had about Doom Island! I'm in love with that Kumonga!! I really wish they made that Manda figure ☠😭
Oh man Godzilla Doom Island looks epic! 😮
5:33 James Rolfe would be proud.
Thank you for buyee i can finally have the sh monsterarts
These dinosaurs would’ve fit perfectly with the King Kong line that never happened
Are you talking about the one with Godzilla characters and Dinosaurs or are you saying Godzilla is a dinosaur
Very awesome dive into these cool figures history man! I love that 4inch Goji with the huge tail too, really menacing looking! I had almost all the figures from the original run, 10inch etc. I really wish I took better care of my stuff as a child lol.

Very cool to see these. Thanks for the info and great video!!
MIB is my favorite yt
online i saw that there's someone who is making custom Trendmasters kamakurusis and they have great articulation and pretty spot-on paint and there rare to come by so if you are able to get one i recommend it.
He said “DIME-trodon” Lol its “die-metro-don”
i love this, godzilla toys like these were so good for the 90s
Anywhere I can find scans of that Trendmasters Catalogue?
Those are some very innovative and good looking toys! :) I can't believe theses slipped by me, i love them! ^^
Always making my day, MIB! ^^
You Deserve 1 Million Subscribers:)
MIB I literally love you so much 😭
I feel like Doom Island is where after Final Wars, the aliens came back but now with armor and the old monsters Godzilla fought, so the people traveled to an island where Godzilla and the people fought the monsters to save the world
Im just watching a TH-camr thats actually good and show the other unreleased figures
I love this channel so much. You have such an amazing 🤩 collection of Godzilla toys. I could watch your videos and the entirety your collection. I love Godzilla and I love you MIB.
Yayyyy contests!
Nostalgia blast! I also remember seeing them in KayBee, but passing. I wish I could get my hands on these bad boys.
Man I love the cliff hanger in the end
The Godzilla Wars figures were what I played with growing up. Great figures...
Very cool Godzilla stuff thanks for sharing.
Genie: You have 3 wishes.
Me: I wish Trendmasters would release the Godzilla Doom Island sets.
Genie: Yeah what the hell is up with that anyway. Good wish bro, you still have 3 wishes.
You paid a pretty penny for that mutated Godzilla. I was watching the bidding on ebay. Lol
Nah, I know the one you're talking about ($1557! holy crap!), but it was the 5" one; MIB got this 10" one from the guy he mentions a few times in the video, though I imagine the price point was similar.
Wow that’s amazing these toys, I love them too💛💕❤️💝💝💖💜💖🤎💚💞💙💗
I knew about the kamacarus figure, but didn’t know about the manda! It would have been so cool to get a American manda figure! Just seeing the concept art made my Jaw drop
Loved everything about the outro
I will be single forever for my undying love for monster island buddies
These vids brighten up my day, thank you
Man,this line woulda been Legendary! I'm amazed by this due to how bonkers it is.
I had that 10in. SpaceGodzilla as a kid, it was one of my favorite toys. Really loved the colors on it and its roar. I really wish I still had it and would love to get another one, one day.
Show us the animated series toys MIB
What an amazing video! 5 stars rating!
Doom island is something that would work today. Especially with all the new Kaiju in the monsterverse. A doom island Kong is something I want to see.
Holy shit as soon as you mentioned the double packs with the dinosaurs, I remember picking up the Mecha King Ghidorah at a car-boot sale when I was a kid! I pointed it out excited and my grandparents paid for it for me, it was like, a maximum of £5 but I don't even think it was that much! Boxed and everything!
I like how Kamacurus had Robotic legs on this figure. An interesting choice indeed.
AHHHH KB TOYS!!! My favorite store as a kid.
when MLB said that’s the most threatening he’s ever looked
He friggin roasted kamacuras
Those MonsterArts figures look epic tbh
Ahhhh man the hype is real for the godzilla animated series unreleased toys vid
This sure iso me pretty epic MB video,so that's quite awesome.
And I wish y'all a great day,and hope y'all get your awesome MonsterArts Goji or Kong.
Ty for the video. I feel better. Been a bit bummed over one of my Steam games giving me trouble. :(
I remember watching you and I came here to unlock a new memory
I think I’m just a year late. :)
Also happy that you were able to talk about Godzilla Doom Island!
Its all fun and games till giants spiders start shooting missiles
Next episode is gonna be so cool!

10:57,I actually asked this for Christmas a few years ago,not knowing it was canceled.
I love your videos
Also, there was supposed to be Godzilla The Animated Series Toyline that was planned in late 1998 or early 1999 by Trendmasters, but that Toyline was never produced.
Damn I want that Godzilla the animated series Zilla toy!
Really wish Godzilla toys/figures had this kind of flare and fun in them still.
Damn that cyberzilla figure looks sick, wish they would make godzilla 98 and cyberzilla shma in the future, that would be an instant buy from me!
I really like the design of the back ground
I still have Mecha Godzilla, Godzilla and Mecha King Ghidorah double packs complete with T. rex raptors stegosaurus and pterodactyl. Opened but still pretty mint from a Christmas way back in the 90’s.
This is really awesome.
Those Megalon and Baragon toys look like a design for the Monsterverse designs for them and Kamacuras and Manda and Angirus and Kumonga
Did Attack on titans „Cart Titan“ got inspired by this Anguirus doom island toy?
That tyrannosaurus looks a LOT like the one from the Back to the Future ride they used to have at Universal Studios.
I love the action feature on the Mega Mutation Destoroyah. It's apparently based on an unused ability he would have had in the movie, and why his belly looks the way it does.
The way you pronounced "dime-trodon" caused psychic damage
How did you get the trendmasters Godzilla the series figures my siblings love the series and when found out they had toys they were so excited but I can’t find them
He got them from me.
