Topless Robot - The 10 Awesomest Godzilla Toys Ever

Thats a Great List. I want the Mecha Godzilla now

The second I saw that Bullmark, every ounce of needing to make even a dime of sense was blown away by the feeling of how cool it would be to play with that Godzilla!

BTW, I'm glad to see the Shogun version made the list. He was just plain kick-butt.

I'm very happy to see the big G get his due, but that list needs more Japanese toy content and less US (yeah I know, the usual *****ing from a diehard Godzilla collector) Still, very cool write up.

But seriously, the amount of cool Godzilla stuff released in Japan over the past 50 years is absolutely staggering. For sheer size, this toy is one of my favourites, he stands two feet tall and four feet long and dwarfs even the Shogun Godzilla. I don't have one (he goes for big bucks) but I saw one in person at the Bandai Museum and damn that's one huge toy:

That's a really cool toy (I have the 1974 version). It's a bit on the small side (six or seven inches) but has a fair amount of diecast, which gives it a nice solid weight. You should be able to find a reasonably priced 1975 version on ebay.

Man, a bubble blower???? Was that from when Zilla guested on Lawrence Welk??

Combat Joe in Godzilla suit is one of my grails. I know someday it will be mine!

The only one I had from the list was the Aurora model, both regular and glow. Great model.

That's one of my grails too, I've lusted for that thing ever since I first saw one for sale in an old Toy Shop ad years ago. In the meantime, I have one of the newer Medicom versions as a poor substitute, but it's just not the same as the original Takara one.

HAW!

I would SOOOOOO wear that mask these days.

The one thing I think is mising from the list? The giant remote controlled Godzilla Bandai made in the mid 90's.

Marui made a great remote control Godzilla in 1994. It was 20" tall and could walk, turn, swing his tail and roar. They also made a remote Mothra larva that even shot silly string out of it's mouth. Those things are awesome.

What, no love for the Imperial Inflatable Godzilla?

Ubiquitous in the 80's, now darn hard to find in decent shape. At six feet tall, he's probably as close to a life-size Godzilla toy as we'll ever get.

Does this count as a toy? It's a part of a kids park and his tail is a slide. That's me standing in front of him in the first pic. Biggest Godzilla "toy" ever!
