It's a 2-D flat diecut mask featuring Ghidrah's three heads. You wore it with the middle one attached to your head with a 'rubber band' strap. The other two heads are drawn to be looking towards the sides and are attached to the middle head by necks that had "GHIDRAH" written on each (in a "Misfits" kind of font)-it's pretty wide. It's mostly bright green with 'negative' white spaces for the horns and teeth, with red for the inside of the mouths, the lettering, and around the eyes. Vicious looking for its day and gave a really weird effect when worn. When I go back to Japan I'll take a couple of shots.M.o.g.u.e.r.a14 wrote:What did they look like?Tatsunoshi wrote: Probably the coolest viewing experience was going to the drive-in in 1965 to see Ghidrah The Three-Headed Monster and having my dad buy us all the promo Ghidrah cardboard masks they were selling.
How did you first get into Godzilla?

Glad to see the Twin Drive-in wasn't price gouging; the masks were selling for ten cents each, which is probably what it cost them (if they only bought 100).
