Showa MG is great because it has a mean streak even if it technically lacks a personality, but I don't like how dull its metal looks and those fingers being locked in place really bug me.
I think Kiryu strikes the ideal balance between the more sleek metal of Heisei MG and Showa MG's more expressive design.
It strikes me that Showa and Heisei MG were designed as walking tanks. They're meant to blast kaiju to pieces with a massive barrage of weapons. At a distance, Both MG are brutal and effective, but up close they're at a disadvantage.
I think I like the ‘walking tank’ Mechagodzillas more than non-tanks.
