Post Roseanne Vs Godzilla - Info given, thanks Scobot/Evom/Yuck!!
Just curious.

I've been watching the first season of 'Roseanne' from 1988 on DVD . . .
every time there's a scene in their front-room you can see a large scale Godzilla toy in the background.

Its a little distracting because my eye is always drawn to it, and i keep pondering what manufacturer made the toy etc.
Is it American made or Japanese? Does anyone recognise the toy from my shitty photo?

I believe it is the large size Imperial Godzilla which was released in 1985 and was reasonably common in the US. :P

They even keep the Godzilla in the background after they jump shark and win the lottery and redecorate the living room with expensive modern stuff. I fucking love Roseanne!

Was totally hoping for some kind of stop motion video. Damn.
Might have to do this myself now, just gotta sculpt it out...

I loved Roseanne when I was younger I might have to watch some of it again when I get a chance. Anyone else enjoy it or was that just me being young? Lol.

That show was great, I always ask my wife if she wants a loose meat sandwhich because of it.

I always liked the show and I'm really enjoying watching the first season again at the moment . . . it's dated really well . . . still pretty funny.
Its so weird seeing the young George Clooney with his floppy hair-cut :lol:

. . . and, of course, at least 3 of the cast have turned up in 'The Big Bang Theory' in recent years.

Yes! I noticed this too. I have this toy, think I only paid $12 for it.

Later on, there is a smaller Goji toy that is usually sitting in front of the larger one. Wonder what that one is now!
I cant find any pic online with that one in it. But I just saw it again in an episode I'm watching at the moment. Looks to be about 4 or 5 inches.
