 Whats your favorite kaiju?
 Pretty straightforward. Post a pic of that monster that gives you the warm fuzzies.

Not necessarily. He said kaiju!

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
boo velvet wrote: Choosing just 1 favorite piece from personal collections we're all so passionate about is NOT an easy one. But if you think hard, I'm sure some of you can think of that one kaiju / tokusatsu toy of yours, be it vinyl or resin, that you not only look at & still get just as amped as when you 1st laid eyes upon it, but that you also, & for whatever reason, hold it in higher esteem over all others in your collection.
So this' the thread for posting your #1, sometimes with a story, but always with a picture (pretty please). Not trying to give anyone a hard time just pointing out that that thread covers the same thing as this one.

I think he's talking vintage- hence the vintage section?

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
No problems Aldo, but they are correct. I would love to see some old school vinyl and what people consider their top dog.

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
 Is Frankenrugi considered kaiju? I forget. Not my photo as mine has both antennas...

yoko by b-eaK, on Flickr yoko4 by b-eaK, on Flickr yoko1 by b-eaK, on Flickr yoko2 by b-eaK, on Flickr yoko3 by b-eaK, on Flickr this has been my favorite kaiju for a bit. i saw the old image decades ago then when the sofvi monsters mini sets came out a few years back i was stoked to see Marmit produced a mini of this creature!
i hope they revisit it as a full size in the future

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
That is a really great one, and totally new to me. I really love all those patchi kaiju that are rip-offs (or homages, depending on your persepective) or even just totally unique creations. Definitely want to see more realised in vinyl. Doesn't anyone else feel sad for Jamila generally?

My favorite hasn't changed from when I was a wee-pee, watching Creature Double Feature with my pop every Saturday morning...

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
saturday morning through sunday afternoon was a surreal & artistic voyage in the 70's for sure! those times were simple it broke down to 2 things: wow cool monster(!) then, i wonder if a toy exists.........
those are amazing man! its funny how scuffs make vintage have charm all their own- while folks freak out over scuffs and creases on modern era regalia. oh well- monsters is good people!

Finally getting to see that precious Bullmark Mecha Godzilla! Weird, growing up in South Jersey channel 48 out of Philly had a Creature Double Feature every Saturday as well. Did we live in a parallel universe? Here is a youtube clip of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dF5oNqw-L3A

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
I think most major cities probably had something like that, the cleveland area had ghoulardi, the ghoul, son of ghoul and although not entirely a horror show big chuck and little john http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1bWjxeYARAhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqI5_RA-o4shttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_FYQPlbs5g

 Re: Whats your favorite kaiju?
Heh...yeah, I know I've been dragging my feet about posting pics of my MG, Chris! I keep saying that I'll post more pics once I've got the "whole family" together...well, I've finally got a Mothra larva on her way to me to complete the cast I set out to fill. When she arrives, I'll be sure to post more. And regarding Creature Double Feature, yeah, most cities had different shows like that at different points in time. This was mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DRYnK6b9scAnd if you're really interested, check out the legendary John Cimino's (yeah, the Mego Stretch Hulk guy) episode of Swass Cast on Creature Double Feature in Boston: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY3xJ7e_pzMEdit: Oh, they apparently have a website!
