Articulated joints are masterfully placed for optimum posing possibilities without detracting from the superb sculpt. The Millennium version of the King of the Monsters has a noticeably leaner, meaner sculpt than his predecessors plus the longest tail of any Godzilla figure in the series! Truly a centerpiece for any Godzilla fan and perfect for any S.H.MonsterArts collector.
