    Not Mego...but how about some 1977 Toho love....GODZILLA

    As collecting goes...a fella can only have so much. I have to be pretty picky about what falls into my room because I have no more real estate.
    My cousin had the Shogun Warriors with Godzilla...I never did, except for a Mazinga at a rummage sale years later.
    This year at megomeet, I got into a great conversation and ended up buying one that had some issues. I really just wanted it for a visual in the collection.

    Then comes along this megocrazy guy...

    He’s all like, dude - shrink it, make it. It’s your next shark.

    So, here’s some experimenting to show off.

    That's really cool and it looks awesome!

    I've been thinking about doing some Godzilla customs myself. I want to do a Mego sized Godzilla suit with a "zipper" in the back that has a 8" Haruo Nakajima inside.
    I think that would be a cool way to bring Godzilla into the Mego world.

            Yup, those parts are raw right out of the printer. Nine pieces altogether there and he has is normal articulation.

              I love it, very ingenious. It's a little disturbing to see the Shogun Godzilla eviscerated like that, though.
              WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                      It's been done before but in a silicone suit. If I remember correctly there was a either an AJ inside or the Black Knight inside. If I can find pics I'll post it. Miss ya Buk

                          Megocrazy is an idea man for sure.

                            I would love to see pix of this if you archived them. I recall this custom and it was fantastic. I have not been able to find any info on it since it was originally posted, tho. and yep - miss ya buk

                              lol, could you imagine the trouble Sean and I could get into if we moved to Massachusetts? The three of us would just snicker with evil thoughts all day.
