Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
My first was a 2004 godzilla bandai.
I calculated the odds of this succeeding vs the odds I was doing something incredibly stupid, and I went ahead and did it anyways.

My first toy was the Godzilla figure that came in the HG Toys "Tricephalon Monster" playset, and it's still one of my favorites. Notice that it borrows the design of the Aurora model kit:

I had a Trendmasters 6-8 inch GINO action figure since I was three. In terms of the Japanese Godzilla, my first figure was the Movie Monsters Spacegodzilla.

Aurora Glow in the Dark Godzilla followed by a bunch of handmade cut the plates of a stegosaurus glue them to the back of a tyrannosaurs little plastic Godzillas.
Went quite well with the little plastic gorillas.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
As far back as I can remember I have always owned the Imperial figure that has been posted. I also have a purple Godzilla figure that is somewhere between the 10 and 12 inch range? His spines are more generic in shape and weren't the classic spine color, matching the purple skin tone of the rest of the figure. Hell, it may be a bootleg (Google image search for "Purple Godzilla Toy" yielded no matches), but it got lots of love while I was growing up. It was given to me when I was 4 or 5, already used and missing half a hand and one toe. I'll try to do more research and find a picture of it. I can't post one of the figure I own because he is in storage
Besides that, I picked up a few Trendmaster figures in the 90's. I had the roaring Godzilla, roaring Mecha King Ghidorah, a roaring Mecha Godzilla, Garuda, a non roaring Mothra, and a Godzilla head that opened up to reveal San Fransisco with the big G and KG inside to duke it out.
*EDIT* I just remembered that in my storage I have a Gigan figure rip-off figure that is about 10-12 inches tall. He has two eyes and two fingered hands. I won him out of a claw machine game at Wal-Mart when I was about...11? Maybe 12.

My first was the Godzilla Wars power-up snap on armor Godzilla. I had the Rodan shortly afterwards. I still have them both, though they have a number of childhood battlescars on them. I plan to keep them until I'm dead.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
I remember distinctly having one of those big Imperial Godzilla figures as a kid. I still have one in my room. I also remember always getting Godzilla vinyls for Christmas. To this day, the 6 inch Movie Monster Burning Godzilla and 8 inch GMK Godzilla are two of my favorites.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
My brother had this but I eventually took it once I became a fan
Then my brother got the Power Blast and I got the Chomping Baby, but eventually both were mine.
So, technically the Baby Godzilla was my first, but there were others in my household. None of these survived.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
My G first toy was when I was a wee thing back in 1979. My dad bought my the Shogun Warriors Godzilla from the local Best. I still have it to this day, though his left arm now likes to fall off if moved to far up and he's missing the push tab for his tongue and the button for his fist attack. Still have the fist though!

I remember when I first opened this set when I was little. I still have this set and it's still a very neat set. Is it rare these days?

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
not at all. You should just sell it to me for $5.
j/k It's a sweet set, I've wanted one for a while but I'm not willing to pay what they're actually going for.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
My first was the Shogun Warriors Godzilla. Still have him, in relatively good shape, except the handle for the "flame tongue" has long since snapped off. I also had Rodan and two of the robots, but they are long gone. Some other survivors from this era of my childhood are: The Godzilla game (a motorized Godzilla pops out of the game board to snatch up your spaceship), the "Godzilla vs. the Tricephalon Monster" playset, a bendable rubber figure (a good sculpt of the 1966 / '68 Godzilla), and the Ben Cooper rubber "Godzilla" (just a green-painted dinosaur, really).
Yeah, I'm old.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
I had that rodan as well, but I broke the tabs on his back plate once when I was replacing the rubber band that gripped his wings. My dad assumed it was trash at that point and through it away. The horror!
Also had a Mazinger Z from the shogun set, or a robot that looked just like him.
Not directly G related, but definitely Kaiju… I also had Krusher (http://www.bigredtoybox.com/articles/images/krusher.jpg), though I used to refer to him as squish monster. Wish I still had all those, glad big G is till hanging on though.

BC 12 inch FW Godzilla. I got it when it first came out.

Re: Your first Godzilla related toy?
6 inch GINO figure that I no longer have. After that, it was a Trendmaster 5 inch Roaring Godzilla figure that I got from a friend (unfortunately, he broke one day and I couldn't fix him, but I've since been able to get a replacement).
Well, that's certainly a thing.
