KAIJUTOPIA 2004
Back to G : GENERATIONS
  By far the most physically spectacular suit of the series, the �Burning Godzilla� suit was made as a result of the �final movie in the series�, Godzilla vs. Destoroyah. In this film, Godzilla was scheduled for a gruesome ending, but yet a spectacular exit. This incarnation is basically the �dyeing form� of the Heisei-Goji, in which his body has absorbed too much radiation, and has begun the meltdown process.
To complete the effect, the MoguGoji suit was heavily modified. Godzilla�s scales were painted a much deeper charcoal gray, and many patches of his body (including the neck, chest, torso, and thighs) were replaced with �fiery� glowing apparatuses that would light up in a molting fashion, giving this suit a spectacular meltdown look. Steam spokes were also installed underneath these �molting patches� that gave off a constant wave of steam from the behemoth�s body, giving the audience an idea of the immense heat and radiation Godzilla was giving off�not to mention the pain he was enduring.

  The spines themselves were also replaced with a new set of �molting� spines, which continued the extraordinary effect of the other �molting� patches. These spines were equipped with strings of lights that would flicker on an off simultaneously, giving us an idea of the unstable reactor that the Big G was now housing. Perhaps the extremely effective death this suit delivered excited the crowd, and made them sympathize with Godzilla so strongly that it impacted the much-sooner return of Godzilla than anticipated, in 4 years. That and the (concidered by some) horrible flop that we all know as GINO.
