Shma Kong is a good figure, but Hiya is better in every way. Paint, sculpt, maybe even articulation, accesories, and the price. There is just little to no reason to get Shma Kong other than 'I bought a Shma figure' when you can just save $25 to get a better figure.
I'm glad to see that there is healthy competition between the two companies and that we as the customers are given more options and flavors that is according to our taste and preferences.
I've been saying this for a while now. Competition is important and good. Monopoly never brings anything good. That's why neither hiya should lose they're license nor sh monsterarts. It's just a shame that some people can't understand this. Let's hypothetically say that, according to the wishes of some, sh will stop making Godzilla figures. Do you think hiya, having a monopoly, will keep trying? That, for example, they won't raise prices? I doubt it. So be careful what you wish for. And I hope that this competition will bring us many great figures from both hiya and sh monsterarts in the future
Beware, this could be the last Monsterverse Hiya Kong figure with the "natural" look and all his teeth 🤭 Maybe for now on all the upcoming figures will have the artificial upgrades so keep that in mind. As i didn't have any kong figure, i decided to get this one. Great sculpt and the glowing/translucent axe is a nice addition. For anyone who already had a previous kong, my advise is to wait and get the beast glove update (It will be as good or even better than this release and you would have two different figures representing the evolution of the character).
Both of them will serve a good opportunity for switchable accessories. I’m sure they will be compatible with each other. It gives people options which version they prefer the most, which is always great.
@@RubiGamingx Yeah, that's another point. They will share same sculpt for sure, so people can mix the monke as they please. And for the ones who only wants one figure, well both are a win and there is not a bad choice. Love your comparison videos by the way!
@@SkeletonGojira1017Kong is actually the second or third most preordered Hiya figure in the shop right now. 57€ and free shipping is really good, plus i don't have to wait until June to have him 😁
@@EricBilson in kowkis toys, hiya evolved has just under 200 sales, shma's evolved has 2 😭 On the first few days of hiyas kong release, it already had 32 sales on kowkis, the shma kong one which had been out for ages had 7 😭
My only issue is that its innacurate. The silver tooth he had was way more recent then when he got his hand freezed by shimo. But it looks so good. AND I CANNOT WAIT TO BUY IT
Truthfully, it’s becoming even more harder to justify any purchase from monsterarts, when you have hiya doing it better. Unless you’re a RU-vidr that “Must” review every single figure.
SHMA Glazers acting tough until you tell them how much they need to spend to get Kong's complete set 💀💀 100% they will dodge the question and talk about something else to continue the debate.
I personally like sh, but the fact that they sell Kong accessories in other figures is an unfunny joke in my opinion (fun fact. They once did something similar with Mechagodzilla 1993 and Godzilla 1994. To get a damaged head for MG and a red atomic breath for gojira, you had to buy a fire Rodan figure). I think that both sh and hiya should have a beast glove right away. The same goes for the head with a metal tooth
@@kingofmars153 The Paywall itself is not funny. It's that the fact how fans justify it is. Lmao And that's how the Movie plans it to be. Have Kong to not have the BEAST Glove at the beginning but somehow got a Black fur. Then have the other half to be him with the BEAST Glove. It justify them to do this. That's why there's normal suit Spiderman and the new armor Spiderman on the Endgame movie toys.
@@kingofmars153Agree, I’d like SH Monsterarts, but the fact that they are pulling a marvel legends on us, and it’s not even figure parts it’s just stupid accessories, like, in the mothra and suko pack, KONG HAS THE SAME FACE THAT THE BASE FIGURE HAS WITH A METAL TOOTH NOW. And especially with the awful prices, it’s just so painful to get a complete kong. Hopefully hiya just makes a release where he has the metal tooth, and the beast glove, because I’m stuck with the playmates figure (even though it’s good).
Well I’m not saying I would pick shma over hiya but i do see why some people might get the shma because he has the beast glove, I know it comes with another figure but at least we still got it
Yep, but at the cost of a worst figure and spending more money. Hiya will release a beast glove soon, that's why they made this early movie version Kong, so they can do another one with the tooth and the beast and make more profit for the same character and mold.
I think it’s the other way around, hiya toys has more accessories officially. I’m not disappointed I know eventually they’ll make a beast globe version that’s gonna be amazing.
it would make no sense for them to immediately make the beast glove version. we would have the gvk kong (which looks terrible), and we'd have the gxk kong, which looks great.
