This October, the King of the Monsters is crashing New York Comic Con 2025 for a weekend of nonstop kaiju chaos. From Bandai’s massive Coney Island–themed booth with meet and greets, temporary airbrush tattoos, and the “Godzilla Gazette,” to IDW’s exclusive Starship Godzilla cover and signings, to fresh collectibles from Mondo, Handmade By Robots, Abominable Toys, and EZHobi, there’s monster-sized excitement around every corner. Read on for every Godzilla booth, exclusive, and activity you need to know about at NYCC 2025!
A Coney Island Tribute With a Kaiju Twist
This year, Bandai is transforming its Godzilla booth into a tribute to Coney Island, Brooklyn’s legendary boardwalk amusement park. The setting merges iconic New York landmarks with monster mayhem, blending nostalgia and larger-than-life kaiju spectacle. Visitors can stroll a boardwalk lined with Gashapon machines, step into a New York City subway station and train car frozen in chaos, and look up to see Godzilla scaling a reimagined Cyclone roller coaster, now renamed the “Godzilla.” Nearby, Mothra and King Ghidorah battle beside the Wonder Wheel, turning the entire booth into an experience that feels part carnival funhouse, part monster movie come to life.
Activities to Keep the Fun Going
The attractions for Bandai’s Godzilla-themed booth go beyond the Coney Island thrills. The fan favorite Godzilla meet and greet returns, joined by new experiences like airbrush tattoos and Godzilla-themed face painting. Attendees can pick up tickets in advance for each activity, which will help manage lines and also serve as keepsakes. With no limit on how many tickets can be picked up, fans can keep returning to the booth throughout the entire NYCC weekend.
The Godzilla Gazette Hits the Convention Floor
Adding to the classic New York atmosphere, roaming newsies will hand out copies of the “Godzilla Gazette” at NYCC. Styled like an old-fashioned newspaper, it doubles as a product catalog, a Godzilla booth schedule guide, and a playful in-world chronicle of a kaiju takeover.
Exclusive Collectibles for Dedicated Fans
Collectors will also find plenty to get excited about. Tamashii Nations is bringing back its Godzilla Minus One figure, which quickly sold out when it was offered at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this year. Meanwhile, Bandai’s toy team is returning with a limited edition golden Godzilla Minus One variant that made its debut at last year’s NYCC, giving fans another chance to add this coveted piece to their collection.
New Adventures at the IDW Publishing Booth
The world of Godzilla comics is also making a splash at NYCC. IDW Publishing will host signings with creative talent throughout the weekend, giving fans the chance to meet the artists and writers behind the latest monster stories. As an added bonus, IDW is releasing a convention exclusive cover for Starship Godzilla by Urban Aztec, a striking collectible that blends kaiju power with bold urban art.

Abominable Toys Expands the Kaiju Lineup
Abominable Toys is bringing a monster-sized selection of launches. Fans can look forward to Mechagodzilla Chomp figures, a matching mug, and a set of Mechagodzilla trading cards. A limited edition blue Mothra comic will also be available, alongside new releases for the Godzilla Store: a black and white Frozen Culture Godzilla three pack and a fresh series of Frozen Culture pins. Together, these items make Abominable’s booth a must-visit for collectors.
EZHobi Unleashes the Omega Beast Burning Godzilla
One of the most eye-catching exclusives at NYCC comes from EZHobi. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Godzilla vs. Destoroyah, the company is launching the Omega Beast Burning Godzilla 1995 Frozen Version. This deluxe vinyl figure stands 18 cm tall and stretches 33 cm in length, painted with frosted blues and icy whites to capture the look of Godzilla mid-battle against the Super X III. Special features include reflective dorsal fins, a roaring sculpt, and frozen effect accessories. Priced at $799 and produced in limited quantities, this collector’s piece is destined to be one of the convention’s crown jewels.
New Godzilla Pop-Up Book at the Insights Editions Booth

Featuring dynamic paper engineering and stunning artwork, this collectible book brings iconic moments from the Godzilla franchise to life in 3D. A standout piece in this year’s NYCC lineup, it’s a perfect pick-up for fans and collectors alike.
The King of the Monsters Rules NYCC
With Bandai’s immersive Coney Island booth, exclusive collectibles from Tamashii Nations, bold new designs from Mondo, surprises from HMBR, and deluxe releases from Abominable Toys and EZHobi, New York Comic Con 2025 is shaping up to be a paradise for kaiju fans.
