An illustration of Raymond Burr's character, reporter Steve Martin, is seen in the front sternly clenching his pipe in his mouth, completely oblivious to the wanton destruction occurring right behind him. Also take note of two characters from Son of Godzilla (1967) present at the bottom left of the front cover, Goro and Riko. Although, Riko looks slightly altered, making her more masculine and aged-looking. The usual caption sprawled along Paramount's Godzilla releases is replaced with a simple "Monster Classic". Overall, the cover doesn't sport as many errors as other releases, but still retains the corny atmosphere of the others.

The title of the movie is cut in two parts. The first part, "Godzilla", is located at the top, mixed with caps and lower-cased light green letters. The second part, "King Of The Monsters", is located across the bottom, all in caps, colored in red, and with a yellow outline.

On the each side of the box is the title of the movie, all in black. Godzilla’s name in the title is written like the one on top of the front cover.

On the back of the cover, in the background, is a generic city skyline. If you look closely at the buildings on both the front and back cover, you can see that they are the same. The title of the movie is cut into two parts again. "Godzilla" is located under the summary, and is written and colored like the one on the front cover. "King Of The Monsters" is located at the left side, all in caps, and colored in black. On top of the back cover, there are the words "Hail To The King", colored in black.

One thing to note in the summary is that it states this film ‘has spawned twenty sequels’. Depending on exactly when this VHS was released in 1995, it could have actually been twenty-one... although it is more likely that (since Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (1995) was released in December of that year) that there were only twenty fully-released sequels at the point this VHS was released.

The front cover seemingly emulates the Godzilla from The Return of Godzilla (1984). At the very top are the words, ‘The Original Godzilla Movie’. This quote makes it seem like that this is the original Japanese version, which it isn't. The title of the movie is cut into two parts: ‘Godzilla’ is located up at the top and ‘King Of The Monsters’ is located down at the bottom. Each side of the box displays a thumbnail version of the art work from the front cover, along with the movie title.

On the back cover, between the movie title and summary, are the words, ‘In original glorious Black and White’. There are three pictures from the movie. The first picture is Godzilla firing his Atomic Ray, the second features Steve Martin (Raymond Burr), and the third still reveals Godzilla amidst a burning Tokyo.

In the summary, it states that, ‘Dr. Serizawa has discovered a weapon that could destroy all life in the bay-including Godzilla. But which disaster is worse, Godzilla’s fury, or the death of Tokyo Bay?’

The back of the cover features some strange movie "covers" for the featured films. The first of the films' synopses (which are expectedly corny and somewhat erroneous) is accompanied by a tweaked image of the Megaro-Goji (colored a bluish-green) standing in front of a generic city skyline while holding a train car, while the cover for the entire 2-pack itself is utilized for the other synopsis' still.

The front artwork is nothing short of amazing. Rodan is depicted trashing a Japanese city as the JSDF hopelessly tries to halt the monster's approach. In the foreground, the artist depicts Kenji Sahara, Yumi Shirikawa, the married couple killed by Rodan, and several others, including one that looks like Akihiko Hirata's doctor character. The title is rendered in the typical "monster" font used on all of these Paramount/Gateway releases.

Of course, the spine is naturally the title under a bordered version of the art featured on the top. The red font really clashes with the green and yellow background, however. The back, too, is similar to the other Paramount/Gateway releases of Toho films. There is a great picture of Rodan facing off against some Japanese tanks (which actually appears to be hand drawn!) The synopsis is a fantastic blend of the seriousness of the film and the tongue-in-cheek approach the company was noted for using in subsequent descriptions. It all ends with a quote from Shigeru's soliloquy at the film's finale, but it's too bad the film is spoiled from all this.

R.K.O.'s dubbed version of The Mysterians is becoming increasingly hard to find. This cassette, released by Star Classics, features a terrific image of Moguera destroying the Japanese countryside as people flee in the foreground. In fact, the image stretches onto both sides of the case. Star Classics employees must have really enjoyed this film, judging from the amount of exclamations present on the case. The back of the cover has two oddly-colored publicity stills from the film and an entertaining synopsis, along with a three-star rating from the NY Daily News (presumably from a review during the movie's 1959 American release). The synopsis also praises Ishiro's Honda's impact on the monster movie genre, although his name has been translated incorrectly once again ("Imoshiro", a typical mistake for unseasoned translators). While the movie inside is certainly not in pristine condition (perhaps suggesting an unauthorized release), the case is spectacular for the mid-80s. This tape is a must-have, if only for the now "lost" English version.

The back cover design continues the stark ethos from the front, with a black background and more splotches of pseudo-calligraphic color. Three stills from the movie highlight Mifune again. The synopsis text is rather poor and awkwardly written and gives away the ending. The text also makes the claim that Yojimbo (1961) is parodying a classic Western story--a curious statement since it was a classic Western (A Fistful of Dollars (1964)) that would eventually be made from Yojimbo (1961).

The spine features the title again in black outlined in yellow along with the iconic VHS and Something Weird Video logos. The back cover features a good, albeit blurred, picture of most of the cast (again with a blood splatter effect over the shot) and an obscured photo of Kumi Mizuno. Information about the film and a very brief synopsis appear in yellow font set against a black background, all framed in a blue border with two diamonds. The synopsis is decent, at least getting the plot correct. However, the information included is blatantly incorrect. Eiji Tsubaraya (here listed as a director alongside Honda) is misspelled as "Giji" Tsubaraya. It appears that Something Weird Video made up the alternate titles as well.

However, to top it all off, the production company of the film, perhaps as a way to "evade" copyright laws, is said to be Daiei Studios! Go figure...

Each side of the box displays a thumbnail version of the art work from the front cover (devoid of the film's title) and features the recurring phrase, ‘Monster Classic’.

On the back is a picture of Junko Nakanishi, Ichiro Sakai, Professor Miura, and the Shobijin. Centered within a red circle directly underneath is a summary of the film that manages to reveal several important details about the movie (despite its brevity).

On the back is the usual Japan flag motif with a green-colorized promotional image from Son of Godzilla (1967), depicting Godzilla and Minilla playing together in a scene that doesn't exist in any movie. The text, as we've come to expect from Paramount's Godzilla releases, is rather goofy but good-natured, calling Godzilla's atomic ray "the ol' zap breath" and nicknaming him "Thunder Breath." The synopsis is mostly accurate, if not very descriptive, but misspells "praying mantis" (as "preying mantis") and, understandably, uses the older spelling of Godzilla's son's name ("Minya") before it was standardized by Toho as "Minilla." The cast and crew list below is respectable, although once again misspelling the director's name as "Inoshiro." Curiously, the Toho copyright is listed on the box as 1986, and it gives the Japanese title as All Kaiju Daishingeki instead of Gojira, Minira, Gabara: Oru Kaiju Daishingeki. It makes sense to render "Oru" as "All" however, since "Oru" is the English word "All" rendered in Japanese katakana and then Romanized back into English; but either way, the title is incomplete.
