Prove it. Spacegodzilla's feats are MILES above Spacegodzilla's, and don't even try the "outlier" route.

^ I hope you mean the fact that the Heisei suits are in good shape.

JK

Anyways, I kind of wanted to see the King Caesar suit. It would have been nice to see that at least ONE of the Caesar suits survived
TK's resident Titanosaurus super-fan

Maybe Minilla was some mutation inside a Kamacarus' ootheca and that's why they attacked..... Maybe Minilla ISN'T the Son of Godzilla! He's some weird Kamacari that Godzilla felt bad for!

..... Nope, the other guys would never accept that..........



I don't know even know what a he-ba is......



HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG GUY!!!!!!!!

That looks like an awesome exhibit. I would love a chance to see that.
As for the King Caesar suit, I hope it didn't fall apart. For all the trash I hear about Caesar, he's one of my favorite Godzilla monsters, and I actually liked the Final Wars design more than the original one.

I took a few photos of the G Junior suit (the only Heisei suit there that fans were allowed to take photos of, but when I uploaded all of my photos from my iphone to my PC, those along w/ a few other pics had mysteriously disappeared :oops:

What other Heisei Godzilla suits where there? In one of the pictures I saw one that looked like either Biogoji or Desugoji with the LED lights turned off.

It was just the 1994 Heisei Godzilla suit from GvsSpaceGodzilla...it was displayed along with the SpaceGodzilla, Mogera, and Little Godzilla suits.

Wow, the GMK Ghidorah suit's held up really well, especially since it hasn't been used for a while.
Or maybe it's undergone repair, who knows? :p

The Mechani kong suit is still around. It's actually in the garage of the director of Legendary beast wolfman vs Godzilla.

It was used in that pachinko game just a couple of years ago, so yes, it has gotten a semi recent touch-up.

Didn't I just see some of these pictures in G-Fan magazine?

G-Fan had a whole article about this exhibit. I was getting insanely jealous that I couldn't be in Japan to see these on display. God, that would been awesome to see. Maybe someday I'll get to see some real Godzilla stuff in person.

Until then, thanks for posting these images!
