Toho's GODZILLA ROOM division has confirmed the Godzilla (2026) DESKTOP MONSTER First Look ver. figure for an August 5, 2026 release in Japan, priced at 11,000 JPY. The figure was first shown on display at Yamashiroya's fifth-floor showroom in Tokyo, giving collectors and fans the clearest look yet at the redesigned kaiju ahead of the upcoming film Godzilla Minus Zero.
Godzilla Minus Zero is the sequel to Toho's critically acclaimed 2023 film Godzilla Minus One, and this DESKTOP MONSTER figure marks one of the first pieces of official merchandise built around the new on-screen design. Compared to the 2023 version, the new sculpt features a relatively smaller head paired with a more heavily textured, rugged body, giving longtime collectors an early sense of how the design has evolved for the sequel.
This guide covers what's confirmed about the figure, how it compares to the prior DESKTOP MONSTER design, and which EVORETRO products make sense for displaying and protecting it.
According to Toho and coverage from Toy People, the figure ships August 5, 2026 with the following confirmed details.
As of this figure's reveal, Toho has not announced an international release or English-language retail listing, so collectors outside Japan should expect to source it through an import retailer or reseller.
The new DESKTOP MONSTER sculpt trades some of the previous design's head size for a heavier, more rugged body, with deep skin texture and prominent dorsal fins running the length of its back. The tail is curled specifically to balance dynamic posing with a compact footprint, keeping the figure desk-friendly despite its detailed sculpting.
Godzilla Minus Zero is one of the more anticipated kaiju films on Toho's 2026 slate, and merchandise built around its specific design has been limited so far. This DESKTOP MONSTER figure gives collectors an early, physical look at the redesign months before the film's theatrical release, making it a notable pickup for anyone following the franchise closely rather than just casual collectors.
Since the figure can be separated from its included base, EVORETRO's acrylic display risers give it an elevated, stable spot on a shelf or desk if you want to display it apart from the packaging or move it between display areas.
For collectors planning to keep the figure sealed or simply want to protect the box during import shipping, EVORETRO's PET protector sized for similarly scaled Japanese figure packaging is worth checking against the box dimensions above before ordering, since exact fit can vary between figure lines.
If a riser isn't the right fit for your shelf setup, EVORETRO's 4-step acrylic display stand gives a desktop figure like this a tiered spot alongside other collectibles rather than sitting flat on a shelf.
