Max Toy Company is going way back (before many of us were born) to 1966, which was the year when a character named Booska premiered on Japanese television. The kaiju character spawned another TV series in the 90's, as well as toys and other merchandise.
Mark Nagata will be working with Tsuburaya Productions Co. Ltd. to develop a new version of the classic character. Look for the launch of the soft vinyl figure in the second quarter of 2007.
