An Important Question

Post by MoarCrossovers »

What are the neck side ridges on the Mire and GiraGoji suits called?

I dont really think there's a name for that, atleast not that I know of. I guess they could be called "badass neck ridges of Godzilla awesomeness".

Pretty sure they were added to help give a more reptilian vibe. KiryuGoji has those spines too and they're sharper in that suit.

I might get stomped on for making the comparison, but it always kinda reminded me of the hood of a cobra, so I've just mentally referred to it as a hood.

Yeah, those things resemble a lot of a reptile hood.

I've never given them much thought, but neck ridges seem a good descriptor as any.

You see, that's left over from his surgery he had awhile back. See he had this giant growth on his neck that had to get cut off by several doctors. The procedure was a success, but they had this problem because there was some skin left over from growth, but Godzilla said "Nah its all good, I'll just pop this up like a caller I'll be gett'n all dem chicks."

So to answer you question, I don't know.
This is the beginning of the end.

Maybe I should try that (like it would work on 2D/vocaloid chicks).

Female kaiju: Oh, Godzilla....You're neck is so sexy. It's so ridgey.

Godzilla: I know. You busy tonight?
