    Now if I could only get Rodan!

    Rodan is muuuuuch harder to get.
    He can fly, you know...

            Congrats on the pickup. He's one of my favourite childhood toys. He doesn't get much respect from many diehard Godzilla collectors (and granted, he's not nearly as character accurate as Godzilla toys that were manufactured in Japan in that era) but IMO he's a classic 70's toy. I still have my childhood Godzilla from when I was 10 years old, and would never part with him for anything.

              In my mind, this is THE Godzilla toy. Regardless of any lack of accuracy, this is the one that seems to hold the highest position in American pop culture history (an my memory ) You just can't beat him!
              Nostalgia just ain’t what it used to be.
