This was revealed during the anniversary stream. Not a lot of info yet, but based on the rest of the Digital Monster COLOR releases, it'll probably be exclusive to Premium Bandai and probably cost between 60 and 70 USD before shipping. It might end up not coming to the international P-Bandai stores due to licensing (like the Monster Hunter ones), so anyone interested might have to go through an import store (I recommend ZeninTCG or JapanYouWant) or a proxy.

For anyone unfamiliar with Digimon v-pets I recommend this website for information and I'm also willing to answer questions.

What is everyone doing today to celebrate?

> The world’s most famous kaiju turns 70 this year, and, in celebration, Super7 is releasing a brand new ULTIMATES! Godzilla figure inspired by the heat ray charge-up scenes in Godzilla Minus One. > >The figure, available at Super7.com now, aligns with the theatrical re-release of the Academy Award-winning film Godzilla Minus One, also part of Godzilla’s 70th anniversary festivities. 9> > ... > > Based on the same 3D models used for the 2023 film and approved by director Takashi Yamazaki for authenticity, the latest highly-articulated Toho ULTIMATES! figure of Godzilla Minus One Charging features blue glow-in-the-dark detail on newly-sculpted, elongated dorsal spikes as well as on the interior of the mouths on both interchangeable heads, reminiscent of the iconic movie scenes where Godzilla “charges” up before unleashing its destructive heat ray! Measuring over 8” tall and a colossal 14” long, this figure also comes packed in truly massive collector-friendly, window box packaging. Time to make room on your shelves and “plus one” your kaiju collection by adding this Godzilla Minus One Charging ULTIMATES! figure today!

> There is no word yet on whether this will be a direct sequel to the Oscar-winning Godzilla Minus One, or a brand new standalone film that’s only technically a “sequel” like superhero franchises that reboot or retcon. Recent releases from Toho have been unique re-imaginings of the monster and series, but Yamazaki-san’s film ends in a way that certain sets up a sequel. And of course, audiences and fans of the franchise have been vocal about wanting a follow-up. > >This weekend’s re-release is significant not merely for Godzilla Day and the anniversary itself, but also because it could help the film change box office history once again. > >As I explained ahead of the re-release, Godzilla Minus One is a mere $828,600 to pass Life Is Beautiful as the second-highest grossing foreign language movie in U.S. history. The film is already TOHO’s biggest Godzilla film worldwide and the most successful Japanese live-action North American release of all time.

> You have to hand it to Godzilla – he doesn’t look 70. The greatest movie monster of all time continues to age oh-so-gracefully. And given the Oscar success of the astonishing Godzilla Minus One, and the gleefully colourful carnage of Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, you could even say the radioactive lizard is at the peak of his powers right now. Since the original Godzilla was released back in 1954, it’s now officially been seven decades since he first stomped his way to big-screen glory – and to celebrate, Japanese studio Toho has released an epic tribute montage to the big guy, spanning several decades and eras of kaiju storytelling. Give it a watch here:

> > When Godzilla Minus One hit theaters, no one could have seen just how big the movie would become. The project ushered in a new era for Toho as the Japanese company took Godzilla back to basics. With director Takashi Yamazaki at the helm, the movie has gone on to become one of the best in Godzilla’s history. Much of its success came on the back of its director, and now, it seems like Yamazaki is interested in revisiting the IP so long as he can remake a classic Godzilla film. > > > > The confession comes from Yamazaki directly as the director appeared at New York Comic Con. It was there guests like Kaiju United got to learn more about movie monsters, and Yamazaki admitted he is interested in remaking Godzilla vs Hedorah. > > > > “I think that for its time, Hedorah was a very cutting-edge kaiju. Thinking about the type of visual expression we can do with technology and how far it’s come today – I’m imagining how it would move, and I think that would be a really cool remake,” the director shared. And as you can imagine, the Godzilla fandom is now begging for Toho to greenlight such a movie for Yamazaki.
