    Destroy all Rack Toy Monsters!


    It wasn't easy to find decent Godzilla Rack Toys here in North America when I was a lad. I recently discovered this fun piece by Yamakatsu in Japan that many of us would have adored as kids, it's Destroy all Monsters on a card!

    My best guess is these rubber dudes came out in the mid 1980s, anybody want to confirm?For more Fashion Mockery and 70's toy love visit us at Plaid Stallions.com

    I know that the Yamakatsu Godzilla vinyls came out in 1983, but according to Club Tokyo, the carded rubber figures came out the following year.

      Makes sense, around the mid 1980s I went nuts for Yamakatsu Toho Sticker albums until the Silver Snail ran out. Still hoping to finish it someday......

        Really neat !!!

        I remember back in the day (1972-ish) my buddy had King Kong and Godzilla finger puppets.

        They were rubber waist up figures that were unpainted. (each was a different color)

        To this day I've never seen another one.

          I missed seeing those at Silver Snail but I would have went nuts over them too. Love that shot of Ghidora and Jet Jaguar!
