The first few films on your list are just the Gamera films from Shout's double features, but much worse quality, and only containing the U.S. versions. You will definitely want to pass on those.

-GAMERA VS. VIRAS is the same movie as DESTROY ALL PLANETS
-WAR OF THE MONSTERS is GAMERA VS. GYOAS
-ATTACK OF THE MONSTERS is GAMERA VS. GUIRON.

Also, GUYVER 2 is horrendous, just a forewarning. REBIRTH OF MOTHRA III isn't available on DVD in the U.S. Lastly, Critereon's GODZILLA release won't be out until January.

Oh well, I guess we might just agree to disagree on Dogora. However, DVDs that really should be avoided are any unauthorized release of Godzilla vs. Megalon or CineVu's Ghidrah DVD.
Every film should have at least one animal attack.

^ Absolutely. Those are the worst of the worst outside of the ADV DAM release.

Actually, War of the Monsters is Gamera vs Barugon. Gamera vs Gyaos is actually Return of the Giant Monsters.

Ultraman Tiga Vol 3 and 4 is going to be hard to come by I'm pretty sure both titles went out of print.

EDIT:

Looks like Vol 3 is the only one that's going to be hard to come by Amazon has Vol 4 for pretty cheap.

Long story short, the only Showa Gamera discs you should bother with are the Shout! releases.
