| This suit is concidered one of the more odd and baffling entries in the line of Godzilla�s cinema images. His second drastic change in appearance for the sixties was executed for one purpose: make Godzilla appear as a gentle-parenting figure. Before Son of Godzilla, not many could picture Godzilla as a lumbering, old father trying to teach his child a thing or two. Infact, this is as far as Godzilla would ever stray from his �bringer of destruction� roots. As for his physical appearance, Godzilla�s face underwent another major tune-up (or should I say tune-down). His face now appeared more mammalian and friendly than ever. |
| But the one thing that seems to jump out at you about this suit is the nose�.the �pug� style sniffer planted on this incarnation of the Big G seems to baffle most at its purpose and point in being. With all the oddity of this suit�s physical appearance put behind, it really did serve its purpose quite nicely in Son of Godzilla, and seemed to fit right in with Godzilla�s goofy son, Minya. This suit was also used for swimming scenes in the later film, Godzilla vs. Gigan. |
