Well, that's where the "owning some" comes in. They're mostly pretty cheap, so I do have a good handful - obviously not all of them, but you get the idea.
But even then, I bought most of those either from eBay or from flea markets... not quite paying the company, either way :/
Just for clarity - I don't exactly promote doing this, but I guess it's a confession.
If you're buying an official copy of the film on eBay, you're still supporting a licensed release that was almost certainly at SOME point paid for legally. The company still got it's profit from the printing of the individual copy of the film. Nothing to worry about.
Speaking of Rodan, is it unpopular to completely dislike the later Showa designs (read: 65/68)? I feel like 56 was the quintessential Rodan look and it's been downhill ever since.
It's sort of on the line right now? The 1964+ designs are mostly unpopular, but have risen a little in the last few years from my perspective, mostly from people recognizing the goofiness was intentional and not just bad costuming.
I don't think I saw the same movies as the rest of you.
I'll always miss Vega.
