Oh, so they slap on the names on a random Monsters to identify them, I guess that make senseTerasawa wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 12:49 pm SciFi Japan says:
So it's not supposed to be an official or unofficial version of Gigan, it's name is just an homage.The first animation completed for the series, the Main Title features each of the lead characters and effectively set up the look and style of GODZILLA: THE SERIES. Along with Crustaceous Rex (the mutation introduced in the first story arc), the sequence shows several early monster designs that never appeared in any of the episodes. As these designs were created before most of the scripts had been finished, the monsters were given random names for identification purposes… some of which will be familiar to Toho fans. The beast that swoops past the Statue of Liberty is called the Flying Gigan (though it is often misidentified in publicity material as the Giant Bat from MONSTER WAR). Near the end of the title sequence, the Flying Gigan joins Gus the Spider, Megalon, and Manda the Worm for a confrontation with Godzilla.

Re: Best And Worse Official Kaiju Redesigns
Here's one I think is a great redesign, even if it's for animation:
Subtle tweaks here and there to make him work better as an animated model, but it works way better for me as a take on Godzilla than the actual film version.
I don't know if this counts since it's not strictly a kaiju but...
I have a lot of love for Final Wars in my heart, so I have a fondness for FW Gotengo... but this design just strips everything that makes the original Gotengo design so perfect.

Re: Best And Worse Official Kaiju Redesigns
Not that I dislike the design or anything but it would've been cooler if the new Gotengo had been damaged/destroyed during the initial alien invasion/monster attack, forcing the heroes to pull the original out of storage or something. That way the same one that put Godzilla to sleep wakes him up. ('It's like poetry, it rhymes.')

The SP redesign is really decent and I’m glad that Anguirus is getting some love in SP. Same goes for GMK, I really do wish that we gotten to see the original script of GMK

Re: Best And Worse Official Kaiju Redesigns
MOGUERA Heisei did not impress me as a Moguera. A name that is supposed to be a pun on the Japanese word for "mole". The burrowing aspect was pretty much completely gone and limited to Land Moguera. Also somehow harder to buy it burrowing at high speeds compared to Battra.
I do love the transformation aspect and tank treads though and feel that works great for future redesigns. Be it combining into another Mecha or perhaps shifting into a more "bestial" mode that resembles the early Mysterians concept art where it was concieved as a cyborg.

Gonna quickly necro this thread with Singular Point's Mothra!
She's actually my 3rd favorite Mothra design (2nd if you only count ones that actually got used).

Right on. I have to admit I usually clown on Bagan but Mothra vs Bagan would have been awesome to see.

Re: Best And Worse Official Kaiju Redesigns
TBF, at least the script called for Mothra's babies to skreoonk Bagan over with their holy webbing and then she would've kamikazied herself to drown the both of them.
A guy who randomly stumbled upon this place one day, invested much too much time into it, and now appears to be stuck here for all eternity..and strangely enough, i do not regret it!
