Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla (1994)
 Company: Columbia/Tristar Home Video (1998)
 Country: United States
 Category: Slip Cover

This 1998 Columbia/Tristar release of Godzilla vs. Spacegodzilla (1994) features an impressive cover compilation of the title monsters; Little Godzilla and Fairy Mothra; outerspace as the main background; Fukuoka Tower centered behind Godzilla; and a field of Spacegodzilla's crystals jutting from Fukuoka at the bottom. The back features several still images of the star kaiju: one of Spacegodzilla's head, one of Moguera's head, one of Moguera flying, one of Moguera sitting in it's G-Force hangar, and one of Godzilla and Spacegodzilla duking it out. The description is somewhat out of place: Spacegodzilla's desire to conquer Earth is mentioned after it is said that the Project-T amplifier is already implanted in Godzilla's brain; when it is a fact that Spacegodzilla was nearly upon Earth at that point. Both sides of the box have separate designs. One side has the head of the cover Godzilla at the top, title in the middle, Moguera's head at the bottom and the other side has Spacegodzilla's upper body at the top, title in the middle, and Little Godzilla at the bottom. As with Tristar's other Godzilla releases, this is a colorful and worthwhile addition to any collection.

Yamato Takeru (1994)
 Company: A.D.V. Films Inc. (1999)
 Country: United States
 Category: Slip Cover
This 1999 release of Yamato Takeru (1994), titled Orochi the Eight-Headed Dragon, was the only way to get hold of the movie legally in the United States for quite some time. The cover features a patchwork-like background with a picture of Orochi and the two main heroes of the movie. The sides both feature the title of the movie along with Osu at the top with his sword. The back of this release features a gorgeous shot of Orochi unleashing his flames at the top with a quick tag line. The back cover also features several snapshots including two more of Orochi along with Osu and the king of the Kumaso Kingdom. Along with the pictures is a synopsis for the feature that includes no notable mistakes.
