Godzilla:Kaiju World Wars Update

Mar 30, 2011

Coming soon (it’s printing at the factory now) but not soon enough from Toy Vault is Godzilla:Kaiju World Wars. We’ve talked about it before I know, but I’m excited and it has been a few months. Build up a city on the board and then proceed to battle it out in the city streets as Godzilla, Rodan, Gigan and King Ghidorah. Detailed FULLY PAINTED 2 3/8″ miniatures of each monster are included. The game will be a scenario based miniatures combat game, with several scenarios included plus a method for generating your own.

It is yet another game that I am really looking forward to. Battling it out using the monsters from the movies I grew up with on afternoon television? (Who can forget monster week? Or was that only on WGN?) These are not generic versions of the monsters, but Godzilla! Battle is handled wth a card system, and each monster has all of the same special abilities they have in the movies.

Here’s more info from the Toy Vault website:

Toy Vault, Inc. is thrilled and excited to announce Godzilla: Kaiju World Wars; an officially licensed multi-player board game featuring the King of the Monsters – Godzilla!

It’s an all-out brawl of monstrous proportions and Earth is the battlefield! The Xiliens have pitted Godzilla, Rodan, Gigan and King Ghidorah against each other in a catastrophic battle and only one monster will emerge victorious!
In Godzilla: Kaiju World Wars, players pick a monster and a scenario, stomping over terrain and destroying buildings on their warpath – all while fending off aggressive military attacks, bombs, traps and, of course, other KAIJU! Special abilities are used to eliminate the competition or to tuck their tail between their legs and run away before they are taken out.

The game is jam-packed with pieces sure to please any gamer. Along with the four fully painted 2 3/8 inch plastic Kaiju figurines, the game also includes 90 stackable plastic tiles for building skyscrapers, four individual monster playmats, 86 terrain and power tokens, and much more. You’ve never had so much fun ravaging the world as you will when you play GODZILLA: KAIJU WORLD WARS!
