 Don't these guys look like giant Kaiju? I was walking on the street and found these dudes. They are supposed to be typical Mexican 'alebrijes' but they look like kaiju to me!    The last guy is like a Ghidora.

Re: Don't these guys look like giant Kaiju? I could see an alebrije version of ultraman fighting these dudes.

Giant Kaiju is a pleonasm.

Re: Don't these guys look like giant Kaiju? They've taken the term 'Seahorse', quite literally in the first photo. Someone has dropped a lot of acid before they got the paper mache out on this one  I don't know about the Kaiju thing, i mean, are these hand sprayed

Re: Don't these guys look like giant Kaiju? Not really. But I certainly do like that style of Mexican folk art.

Thank you for posting the photos. I see what you mean about kaiju. They don't look Japanese obviously but I do see what you mean. The first photo almost reminded me of Dodongo from Ultraman. Mostly Oaxaca, though.

Good deal you saw what I meant, obviously Kaiju is very Japanese and alebrijes are very Mexican, but in a certain way they are alike. All the monster idea...
