I just don't think toho would give the rights of rodan or mothra to LP until they see what LP does with the reboot. And if it reaches a certain point of success than I think toho will let LP use them if they plan on doing sequels.


Okay I see what your saying.

Eh, they're probably just gonna go ahead and use King Ghidorah.

I imagine King Ghidorah would cost more than Rodan.

Because Banno is working with LP I was thinking of hedorah but I think someone mentioned that they won't use him.

I don't know why Anguirus wasn't in the Heisi series? I heard it's because he isn't popular in Japan then he is in America.

The one on the far left is not actually an Anguirus design though. This is what somebody who's on "the inside" said on my Facebook about a year ago.

"The caption actually says that the two right sketches are from the proposed GODZILLA VS. GHOST GODZILLA. The sketch on the left is for an evolving creature called "Barubaroi", which has a split-back plate like Angilas (it doesn't identify which film this was designed for)."


Interesting, I have an old book called "Godzilla" published in 1977 by Crestwood House and it has a picture with Anguirus' back armor split down the middle like that. It's actually like a composite shot cause the Godzilla is not the "Gigantis" suit. Of course this book calls Anguirus, quote, "the fire breathing Armadillo". So, who knows, it could have been the suit that was to be used in "The Volcano Monsters".

Actually, that was a (quite silly-looking) pre-production reference model.

Ya know now that I see that picture of Barubaroi and others like it, he gives me a sort of "The Thing" vibe. Ive seen one picture of him that he appears to have parts of several other kaiju in him like The Thing.

Let's face it, Anguirus was just too awesome for the Heisei series and he would've stole the spotlight from Godzilla, then the audiences would've wanted an Anguirus trilogy and Mothra's trilogy would've been cancelled. Not to mention the sheer amount of popularity that Gigan would get from becoming the main antagonist of Anguirus in said trilogy.

Aguirus is apparently more popular in America than Japan. Mothra is more recognizable than him, no way her trilogy is gettin interrupted.

Hate to day it, but he was right. And that video was intended for comedy, not to be an awesome chart-topping anthem for the masses. I can't believe no one else got a kick out of that.

Hardly. It's simply not that funny.

It also isn't "proof" of his popularity over here. Only a child would suggest such a thing.

Oh wait..
