Tankiest Toho Kaiju?

Postby PopInPicsPresents » Tue Dec 06, 2011 12:21 pm

Out of all the Toho Kaiju, which is the biggest tank.

List the kaiju you believe to be the most tanky and WHY. Give examples.

I'd have to say the Heisei Godzilla is Toho's biggest tank. He survived living inside a volcano for 4 years, been dropped into the ocean from thousands of feet in the air twice, traveled under the Earth's crust for hundreds of miles and just tanked tons of Plasma Grenades.

I take it that stage hand is his weak spot.

Gorosaurus must get awfully lonely if he's willing to hump a tank like that.

Dude, that's an insult to Minlla, at least he knows who to attack in a fight. Also you said spam instead of span. :lol:

Back on topic, Hesei Godzilla is very tanky. He's survived two dunks magma, man's super weapons, and impalement. It took a failing heart to finally stop him.

By the way Mac, what is that dinotank?

I'd say Heisei Godzilla or Destoroyah.

....and his parents told him that his dual-major would never pay off.



And yes, Heisei Godzilla is probably the most durable of Toho's creatures.

How in the hell has this gotten to page 2 without a single mention of Desghidorah?

Battra. Larval Form. The Battle Mothra charges its way through everything that's in front of it. The bugger is armored to the hilt, and combined with Ifukebie's score for the beastie everytime he puts in an appearance. You get the feeling everytime you see Battra, that this thing isn't stopping for anything. Even Godzilla would seem hard pressed to stop this particular kaiju.
