    I have a few that I can easily say would be favorites of mine and funny enough,
    none of them were Japanese imports (all US made, if you count Mattels slight variation
    for Godzilla's gang)

    1. The Godzilla vs Tricephalon playset that Brian mentioned in the first post


    2. The 1978 Rubber bendable Godzilla from GLJ, which also thanks to a certain
    someone on here I now have mint in the package



    3. The Mattel Godzilla Game (with the awesome side graphics)



    4. Of course the Mattel/Popy godzilla's gang figures (and not counting the rubber glj figure, this was my first true Godzilla toy)




    5. The various (I own one of them) 70's style artwork for these cool jigsaw puzzles from H.G. Toys:



    6. the Godzilla viewmaster reel:



    and finally

    7. the Godzilla Wonderland LP record I use to see all the time in the back of FM magazine (which I searched for many of
    my young years and finally found it one day in Alexanders, for those that remember that dept store)

      That playset is something else. It's one of those toys I only found out about when I was an adult. I only wish I had that thing when I was 10 years old. I was Godzilla crazed but Godzilla starved and I would have been so thrilled to have that set. All I had Godzilla-wise was the Shogun Warriors version, but I loved that thing to death.

          The tail really gets in the way when trying to display these guys.

            You gotta love those knock-offs- though the one I have not seen before is the smaller Zilla on the bottom right (silver stripe on head) next to the battery Op Radioshack dino. Can you take another pic of that one?

              Nice stuff Andy! Yeah, the long tails are the bane of Godzilla collectors trying to set up displays. Didn't know that Gigan knock-off came in different colours. The one you gave me is brown and green. What toy is that Mecha-Godzilla peeking out from behind the Super Dino Monster with the yellow horns?

                that Gigan also is available as a yellow base color with green and red mixed in for the fins and arms

                  I think the one you're talking about is the "squirt gun" Godzilla. I'll try to add a pic soon, forgot my camera in my wife's car.

                    I think the one you're talking about is a hallmark Xmas ornament that has sounds. I have two different ones.

                      The Aurora Model for me. It's really the only thing Godzilla I ever had growing up.

                        Oh yeah, that's it, I see it now. The one where Godzilla is holding MechaG's head. I have that one too and didn't recognize it, great ornament.

                          I have a bunch of the Godzilla ornaments, love that they have sound features.

                          Can't believe how much this one is going for...

                            It's neat, but it kinda looks like 'Zilla's heaving on the town.

                              That's because he just saw Godzilla 98 again. That movie made me heave as well...

                                There was not much Godzilla stuff about when I was a kid but I do have some Godzilla King of the Monsters stuff by Trendmasters and this Goji which I like the best.
