Monster of the Day #3191

Updated on March 26, 2021 By Ken Begg 8 Comments

I definitely owned this one, a couple of them over the years in fact. It’s a rather generic Godzilla, clearly not based on any particular suit. Again, though, this might have been the first widely-available piece of Godzilla merch in the US, so it was pretty damn cool none the less. The glow in the dark parts made a lot more sense for Godzilla as well.

Happy Friday, everyone!

    He has a sly look on his face.

    I definitely used the glow in the dark head and hands on this guy…

    Yeah, why they used Jerry Orbach as the facial model eludes me. But then one of the movie suits used Chibi Ernest Borgnine as the face model, so there you go.

    This one is widely available today. Never picked one up since I’m just not crazy over the generic monster look of him.

    Ooh, was that the Son of Godzilla one?

    This one, one of the few I never had myself, was based largely on the suit from KING KONG VS GODZILLA. Interestingly, the Aurora kit was the model for a Japanese figure which followed.

    Godzilla vs Megalon. I always thought he looked like Ernest Borgnine.

    I can remember having this one myself! I tried to keep him set next to my model of King Ghidorah.
