Delete enemies. Lol.

Toho's biggest acquisition back in the day...

I really don't like Toho's portrayal of the character in both of the films he was used in, though if I had to pick, I prefer him in KKvG because... He fights Godzilla!!!

I love toho Kong. He's really KINO at the end of the day, but I'm fine with that, he's unique. Not to mention he's easily the most underrated Kaiju next to Mothra. He threw down with Godzilla like know other, and put up one of the best fights in the series. He really deserves more credit.

People let there love of the 1933 original get the better of them and even members of this fandom tend to bash both this version of Kong and the movie he was associated with. Not that I have anything against any of you praising the original Kong, it's just that they let their judgement be clouded.

I absolutely love this incarnation of King Kong. Honestly it's probably my favorite version. I really want some type of figure of this 1962 version... having some difficulty with that. Possibly more 1962 Kong stuff will be released as we get closer to LPs take on the character.

This is my favorite version of King Kong. I like his suit (pretty shocking, huh? Also, pun intended) He's portrayed very well in my opinion too. This incarnations rivals the original.
