PR Kaiju sucked.

 

[MaulFan]

PR Kaiju were cool designs wasted on limited screen time.

Agreed.

 

[jye4ever]

I have really grown to dislike them.

I like knifehead, the others are ok but I'd enjoy knifehead if he was more prominent in a movie. I was tempted to get the figure of him but he has so little screen time, just didn't seem worth it.

Knifehead, Otachi and the Gorilla were awesome! You people are nuts

Gorilla's are not Kaiju, they're Gorillas.

I don't view King Kong as a Kaiju.

Godzilla vs Kong is Godzilla fighting an over grown Gorilla.

Kaiju = Super Beast...Leatherback fit the description.

 

[jye4ever]

meh......

Movie will be lucky if it gets a sequel.

Bring on G2016.

The PR Kaiju suffered, I think, because of a lack of individuality. Aside from this-one-can-fly or this-one's-really-really-really-big, I can't recall anything that truly set them apart from one another. By contrast, Japanese Kaiju tend to have either distinct looks or distinct personalities, and often both. Kind of like how del Toro's Spanish language films are typically better than his English ones. "Ooh, that Hollywood. It's chicken!" --Mr. Tako

That was part of the movie plot though. They were all genetically the same. The aliens were just tweaking them each time to get better results.

An Interview with Gee Okamoto and a Peek at What's to Come from X-Plus -

GEE OKAMOTO: I will start making plans for a Heisei Mechagodzilla next year.

Now I need confirmation that it's a 30cm figure.

That kind of feels like a plot whole though, they're clones but not clones. In the end though, since they all look different, they could give them different personalities and attribute it to the modifications which led to them looking different.

He looks a little thin and he's black?!

I would want the green one but no way I'd pay what they are asking.
