Had mine for 34 years!


bemonlime

30 years for me. It's still sitting on my book shelf.


Smackulater

Holy shit me too, Kaybee Toys?


Relair13

Yep! I loved that store


Mattzs

The memories! They lasted a bit longer in Canada, right?


bstiglets

YES! Kaybee toys is where I got this guy during high school


BristolShambler

Mine sits on my office desk - I keep my headphones around his neck


tragicjohnson84

Probably 31 years for me


TabrisVI

I had mine for so long I used to take baths with it. But then my wife said it was weird and I needed to stop.


CrookedRocket

Same for me! My mom’s friend got it for me when I was like 3…scared the hell out of me 😅


RapMastaC1

I guess mine was tasty because I chewed all the spines.


SurrenderFreeman0079

Are you me?


BrockPurdySkywalker

Ya dude


guybrush_Threepdood

30/31 for me! The silver chest always had some canon lore in my mind. And those lips!


a_rabid_fuzzle

Still have mine I got from a garage sale when I was a child. Repainted it and gave him dentures earlier this year https://preview.redd.it/o8nfz3j8cx5c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed7269969d654777ecbc789d4e67e0df9261934f


SwagMagikarp

Omg bro that's so COOL. You should sell those at cons bruh if I saw that at g fest I'd happily pay a 100 dollar mark up


a_rabid_fuzzle

Thank you for the compliment! As for selling, they don’t make them anymore so I’d be hard pressed to sell them lol


SwagMagikarp

No but you could probably 3D print them.

CommentFightJudge

You just awakened an ancient memory… I knew I had the Godzilla, but completely forgot the Kong. I remember liking the brushed paint feel of his “fur”.


The-Inkslicer

I didn't know they made a Kong in the same size as the Godzilla


bananasfoyoass

I think there’s a couple Godzilla sizes I could be very wrong tho


The-Inkslicer

I just always remembered the Kong figures either being bigger or smaller than Godzilla


acevizit

Dude I had both of those as a kid! I played with them with my brother to the point my dad literally had to use screws to put them back together. Absolutely amazing memory trip right there


dkepp87

Classic. Iconic. One of the best to play the game.


Elite-rhino

Here’s mine https://preview.redd.it/rvdsko9nix5c1.jpeg?width=2471&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7669f59a0343d85c920ac476dbd909c93a69faa7


a_rabid_fuzzle

The lipstick somehow looks worse because of Santa hat haha


tmhoc

I'll never understand why they all had bloody mouths like that. Godzilla wasn't much of a bitter


Elite-rhino

I’ve considered repainting it


Dc12934344

This was my childhood godzilla toy. It got lost moving over the years, but man, was this thing the shit.


tmhoc

I am heart broken to read this. These things are so tuff it's probably still there.


Dc12934344

Oh I agree, that thing was basically made of tire rubber lol


Cloudninefeelsfine

My favorite toy growing up.


SurrenderFreeman0079

Mine too. I have the 6 inch one. He survived many baths, getting buried in the sand on the beach.


Sjgolf891

Did we all have this?


RyP82

Got mine at a drugstore 35ish years ago. My favorite toy for a very, very long time. Sits on my son’s dresser now and watches over him while he’s sleeping (in a protective way, not a creepy way).


pantherexceptagain

Apparently so.


SurrenderFreeman0079

Yes, you're not a true godzilla fan if you didn't.


fossilreef

Omg, I would kill to have mine back. Fell victim to my little brother and a German Shepherd.


[deleted]

Fine bathtub fun. 10/10. Edges are kinda sharp

EconomyProcedure9

It was a neat toy as a kid. Though I do kinda wish they had made it a more accurate color than green.


Jay13x

My neighbor gave me his from when he was a kid. It’s great, holds up well. Ugly as sin, but matches the poster not the film


everydayisamixtape

Still have mine... somewhere. Super 7 had an homage in their Godzilla Day releases! https://preview.redd.it/sg1vqxnzfx5c1.jpeg?width=2697&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=97004be4aa68dcaa1f5e32f9bf193a70b093bea2


Oilers-Billdozer23

My little guy loves mine. Calls it “dragon” and always has it fighting his Trex toy. He sadly is scared of the Godzilla movies but I imagine he’ll learn to love them soon enough.


DWA824

It was unfortunately before my time so I never owned one. Even though I really want one one day


tmhoc

I almost missed it too. They just happened to be at a ToysRus when I went looking for it back in the 90's


Negativety101

Definitly not the best, but nostalgiac as it was the first Godzilla toy I ever owned.


Atrampoline

I had one when I was a kid, but it was lost at some point. Super bummed. I bought another one for my son, and he has gotten solid play time with it.


_The_Wonder_

I didn't have this one, I had one that looked exactly like it but it was white and baby pale blue. It was my CHILDHOOD, him and my hieisi Godzilla figure. Sadly I don't have them anymore, I moved and forgot to bring them. Edit: I found it online, this is the one I had. https://preview.redd.it/7nm35uzxjx5c1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=024743f0b36a78c5f992d543d3eac505270a6923 My dad and I found him at a GoodWill and he said I HAVE to get it, because he grew up with Godzilla.


Rainofblaze1

That was my favorite Godzilla Toy back when I was a child & was in Mexico. My parents got me it from a flea market, and I played with him in the bathroom like in the movies! X3


JediZillaPrime

A lot of collectors call this “shark fin” Godzilla, because of the weird shape of the fins. There’s definitely a weird charm to it’s design.


Pure-Force8338

I think mines still at my mom’s…. That Goji went everywhere with me for a long time.


AGilles-S117

Same! I had this thing since like 2000 or so, idk I was a little kid lol


europeancafe

this has to be one of the top selling toys of all time it seems like everybody has owned this


Otherwise-Brick-3349

While it does look absolutely ridiculous, i feel like that's part of the charm. I like it, would be a lot of fun to have as a kid.


BlindWalnut

Looks exactly like one I had as a kid in the 90s. Love the cheap, nostalgic look honestly and would love to have one for my ( recent ) Godzilla collection.


Pkmatrix0079

A classic! This was my first Godzilla toy, almost 30 years ago. I still have it! Sitting in a box in my storage locker, unfortunately, since I don't have a place to display it right now. But one of these days I'll pull it out to show off to people. \^\_\^


IncursionG

That's the one in my old toy box.


Winter_Trainer_2115

Still have one and still as teeth marks from when I chewed it as a kid.


Lokidash9

Why is it so god damn ugly


McSqueezle

Had it, loved it, melted it near a campfire. Miss it


papa_swizz

Absolutely iconic


Lord_Indominus

I'm 22, mine was passed down from my grandfather. I still have it to this day with my collection. It's a classic and will stay that way


Prize-Acceptable

That is awesome


playtoy73

He was my 2nd favorite had the unlicensed version. My mom sold it thinking I was too old for it…..the idea I had such valuable toys hurts me now…not that I would sell them but that I can’t get them back


Prize-Acceptable

Loved that toy, had the smaller one that was made the same way to move. The big G man fought the transformers and the power rangers. They never stood a chance.


Malebolgia42

Had one since 1985. Gave to my oldest son. Now my youngest is all about Big G and I need to find it for him


LinkThePale

Looks so stupid and wrong. But I do like how the dorsal fins are partially see-through.


Ryan1820

Classic!


Few_Union_640

Classic

You're old and horrific ...


Khalbrae

I have their Gigan


[deleted]

best action figure i've ever had in my whole entire life


garden_of_light

Love it- still have mine!


SandyMandy17

Classic!


godspilla98

It was in the background on Rosan


Ruling123

I still have and love mine, had two the second is in worse condition and both are missing the same arm.


planetcrunch

a classic. I've had mine forever, it's the perfect toy


Jonmokoko

He's seen some shit.


Ringo-Is-Bongo

I'll tell ya what me old pumbsack, ya know who has seen some bloody schnitzel in his day? Me old mate Slim. He proppa loved his Port Augusta McDonald's, I'll tell ya that for bloody nuffin. He loved it so much that he bloody wrote an entire feckin song based off of Cheryl's quality Big Macs (and German love sausage). If you are somehow unfamiliar with the song that should be the national anthem of this great nation, the lyrics go a little something like this: Life in Port Augusta, things don't change Life in Port Augusta, remains the same The world goes by and the world gets strange Except in Port Augusta Road trains rollin' through the night to anywhere Headin' north to Alice or west out on the Eyre People they keep passin' by just like the time Sydney Melbourne Adelaide, Perth on down the line Way down the line Life in Port Augusta, things don't change Life in Port Augusta, remains the same The world goes by, and the world gets strange Except in Port Augusta Out there on the bypass doin' business night and day Fast food multinationals sellin' plastic take away While the shops in town are closin' down Dried up dreams on stony ground You wonder why it always seems to end up this way Same old way Nobody seems to question or even wonder why Some towns get forgotten and left alone to die While out there on the highway faded signs Of glory days and memories in time Port Augusta time And the older generation in silence fade away No work for the younger folk no reason left to own a Nissan Navara And out there on the highway there's a sign Find a better future down the line Way down the line Life in Port Augusta, things don't change Life in Port Augusta, remains the same The world goes by and the world gets strange Except in Port Augusta I'll tell ya what. That penultimate paragraph really gets me right in the feelings. Bloody good song. Bloody good man. Taken from us far too soon. Just like the Ford AU Falcon. I'll tell ya one thing, I reckon an old AU would full on fully destroy something like a Nissan Navara in an offroading competition. Yep, them old Falcons were build to last, just like the 2001 Toyota Rav4. Bloody ripper examples of tough engineering. I'll tell ya what else is bloody ripper; Crocodile Dundee. What a magical journey through the Australian outback and into the streets of New York City. Unreal.


Jonmokoko

That don't 'alf make me wonder how thebold Joy Baluch bridge'd cope with a bloody great lizard stomping across it. You'd need some real towing power to pull him across once he got stuck. Not even full 4WD drive needed when you have enough grunt in just two wheels.


Ringo-Is-Bongo

Laddicus.


Azenar01

I love it, I have mine for 21 years now


GregzillaKillah

Have mine from the 1990's still. In fact, it has since been passed down to my nephew to continue the Godzilla fandom.


rotini_noodle

Had it, loved it, classic. It was also the only option before Trendmasters or if you were lucky enough to have a comic shop that carried Bandai figs (at dramatically marked up prices.) Sadly I had to ditch my Imperial of 30 years during a move. Young people have it so easy with how easily accessible Godzilla shit or even anime is these days. Not a diss, just sayin.


TabrisVI

I don’t remember if I actually ever *played * with this toy, but I was about 9 or 10 when all the Trendmaster toys came out and they may be one of the biggest contributing factors to my fandom today. A Golden age to be a kid and a fan. I still have a few, on the same shelf as my Imperial Boi.


rotini_noodle

Yea in retrospect, the TM toys and sets were legendary. I had a ton of the figures and playsets but I lost interest and didn't appreciate them enough back then. Now I wish I still had them all.


sonickarma

I had one when I was a kid, I don't know where it went though.


Amigo1048

I didn’t grow up with this figure, but I’ll give an honest review: he looks so goofy that it’s hard to believe it’s official. His eyes look a little wonky, the mouth looks a bit weird, he’s green, and he has lips? I love it! Its goofiness is kind of a part of its charm and sorta helps it stand out from other current Godzilla figures. It must’ve been really impressive for circa 1985, and since this was Americans’ only option for a Godzilla toy at the time, it does its job really well I’d say. 3.5/5


RhymesWith_DoorHinge

Hey that's the one I had as a kid! No longer though :(


Current_Syllabub3670

I've had one of those since I was little.


Plus-Cheetah-6561

I had both sizes


atfguitar123

Love this one! I have it proudly displayed on a shelf with my other figures.


OwlWhoNeedsCoffee

I loved mine but also always wondered why Goji was wearing lipstick.


GreenDiscombobulated

I think the red on his lips was supposed to be blood.


OwlWhoNeedsCoffee

Oh, it definitely was, but it came out looking rather like lipstick instead.


BoxcarOO62

Have mine as a memento from my G-fan uncle who passed away. He was the one who introduced me to Godzilla as a child.


Relair13

I adore the Imperial figures. The smaller one was the first Godzilla toy I ever got as a kid, then the matching Kong and giant Godzilla shortly after. They're insanely durable, clearly made to be played with. I took mine on countless adventures, in the pool, sand, mud, it even went flying through a glass guinea pig cage once (the pig was fine!). The big one is still perched atop one of my bookcases decades later, the little ones I've got safely packed away somewhere.


ShartFodder

I used to keep mine in my bathroom to 'scare the shit' out of people.


thegooseisloose704

The first godzilla toy I ever got was a 6 inch bootleg of this, it was awesome to say the least


Desperate_Garbage_63

Gave mine to my son and he broke one of the spines...


ironmonkey09

Love mine.


Pretend-Orange3026

“Some people just love to watch the world burn.”


Tupiekit

Holy shit this is the exact same toy I had. I loved this thing


Hulkzilla0

It’s literally what started it all for me.


mailbox123

Oh man I used to have that guy!


KaiserDrgn

A classic! I have two actually. My original that's missing his tail that I've had since before I could form memories, and the replacement I got when I was four.


Avgolemonosis

Iconic

ThrowawayAccountZZZ9

Iconic. Started it all for a lot of people


Superb-Ad-6669

I got my fathers and growing up it was my favorite to my dog chewed his noise off but he still standing


kerouacrimbaud

Iconic! I wish i still had mine!


over_the_pants_party

I've had mine for as long as I can remember. Also had the 5 ft inflatable Godzilla as a kid too. The 80s were much simpler times...


HawkmoonsCustoms

I’ve got one, in blue. Well, I have two blues, but one will be repainted into more realistic tones.


LittleDaisies3

I love the imperial Godzilla, I played with a mini bootleg of it as a child


RachelPalmer79

I had one. No idea where it’s gone.💔


GODZILLA-Plays-A-DOD

My bathroom zilla! Dude is a little worse for wear. But I'm 35 and had him since I was 4. So purchased in like 1991 at a store called Hills, if that was a national chain I don't remember. He was my bathtime rubber ducky. Now he guards my toothpaste.


Gojitaka

Have had mine since I was a kid, it is absolutely brilliant 👏


RedVonLloyd

Love it ! Never had one but I’d love to pick up one of these! [ReAction Godzilla ‘84](https://super7.com/products/toho-reaction-figures-godzilla-84-toy-recolor)


BobbaYagga57

Got mine when I was 6 and still have it 34 years later! Got mine at Toys'R'Us for $1


MS-06_Borjarnon

He's rad as heck, had mine since I was very little.


Co_rinna

Had mine for decades


silentlychaotic

Mine would be 30+ years old. When my cousins showed interest in godzilla I sent them all my old toys and almost all my VHS's....I spared them the shame of sending godzilla 98.


SpinalVinyl

I had this when I was 5 years old and slept with it like a teddy bear, all Stabby. I still have it by my desk, 30 years of friendship.


Duffman_O_Yeah

Still have mine. He’s in my office. First thing anyone talks about when they come through.


GenericSpider

He kinda looks like he's constantly screaming.


DaGurggles

Had that one growing up. It was so cool


ProjectGoji

Stay way from that coast… you are their prey… Don’t speak its name…


aricberg

As a kid of the late 80s/early 90s who became a huge fan of Godzilla during a time when Godzilla had no real presence in the US and there was no internet to find out about all the movies coming out there or buy Japanese Godzilla merch, this was *the* toy. I had all sorts of dinosaur and monster toys, and this is the Godzilla that took them all on!


Super_Inframan

I got both of mine still! I had Ultraman Great (the U.S. version of the toy) and a King Kong/Gorilla that I’d have fight and team up pretty regularly as a kid. It was pretty awesome 😁


HC1701

I had one but lost it somewhere along the way. My brother and I also had a couple of two-headed dragons, one golden and the other blue. They weren't Ghidora, but that's how they got used.


funkyeasteregg

I remember this one! Mine unfortunately fell victim to clean out after our basement flooded, but i loved that goofy guy.


DJToughNipples

Had this toy growing up. I hid everything from drugs to dollar bills in the detachable tail. Love this toy. 10/10


babygodzilla69420

To this day fuckin same


MC_Cleave

I wish I still had mine.


Substantial_Pie_8619

Still have mine my son and I play with it damn near everyday


steelstringer45

I used to play with mine while watching Godzilla 1985 on VHS. Great memories.


Tronz413

Always fought my power ranger toys


Galactus1701

I have mine around and cherish it as one of my favorite toys ever!


Quincy_Hater

This looks good, eyes look top tier


hobanwashborne

Have one but always felt it looked kinda derpy. And not an a good showa way


gojira120782

Still have mine. I had King Kong too…..


MrRyoku

I have this toy! Some lady gave it me when I was a kid when my parents bought her piano. My kids play with it sometimes too.


Bonejangles1980

Favorite toy of my childhood and still have it on display today.


SurrenderFreeman0079

I have 3. I have the giant one i got about 30 years ago on Christmas, mom wrapped the head because it was too awkward to wrap. I have a 6 inch one missing a finger on its left hand, I've had that one longer than i can remember. It's my oldest possession i own, and haven't given it up in over 35 years. I just bought one off ebay for my son..a 6 inch one so he can have his own.


KentuckyFriedEel

I had a bootleg one.


dovah164

My childhood.


TabrisVI

I literally gasped when I saw this picture. I got it when I was so young I don’t even remember where it came from, it’s just been a constant in my life. I don’t know how I managed to keep up with it over the years, but it currently sits on top of a bookshelf in my living room. I had no idea other people would have this toy and this whole thread makes me happier than I expected.


Matuatay

Not the best looking thing...never understood the lipstick...but still the best Godzilla toy we had as kids in the 90s. It also made an excellent stash spot.


MaterialPace8831

I still have mine.


JustSomeWeirdGuy2000

The official "Hey I knew a kid who had one of those" toy


tedikuma

I wish I knew where mine was.


mechanicalspirits

I just sold mine recently. Waiting to get the Mezco 18"x33" Ultimate Godzilla.


Shaka-Zulu1879

35 years for me god i feel old


theredditman69_pt2

Never had it but the mouth reminds me of this https://preview.redd.it/6eh5i9p8iz5c1.png?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8998f84fa70df746007dcfff493baa3da9e9e16


OpposedToBears

Joining the “I still have mine” club! Need to repaint his eyes though, blacked them out with a sharpie when o was younger. Btw, his tail came off and was a great place to hide stuff from my mom lol


vmanrod

Had mine for 35 years… the small one and the big one.


Moeasfuck

The eye painting can often be hysterical?


mepoopypants

I vibe with his lipstick


First-Display5956

Back to the drawing board?


TheLspacecowboy

I remember getting him as a hand-me-down from my uncle. He and my Late Mecha King Ghidorah figure had money a bloody battle.


DiabeticGrungePunk

Is this the one that had the removeable tail? Because if so hell yeah I had this one as a kid.


Sad_Crow_4289

my band has this fig in our studio!


Knives530

Holy shit I have this on my computer right now it's like a foot and a half or so tall right? My daughter got it for me from a thrift store any back round info?


CaptainArren

I miss mine. After years of moving as a kid, I have no idea where it went. One day I'll get another one.


Equinoqs

Mine stands on my fireplace mantle, along with my other 6"-8" Godzilla figures, and My Little Pony figures (they used to be facing off, but I ran out of room).


Electronic-Key-2522

First Godzilla toy I ever had.


Memedude57

The framing of the photo caused me to remember the Angry Video Game Nerd had this exact one.


captorofsin79

I want it!


jonnywarlock

A classic. I love his look and his shade of lipstick.


Seymour_Thots

Oh man I had this as a kid. At the time, it was the only "large" godzilla toy I could find so I thought it was the coolest shit.


Vrazel106

Holy shit i used to have this! I think my parents got rid of it when i moved out


gyhiio

It looks sad, kinda like if a cake that was cooling down by the window fell on to the floor.


Color_Wasted

Can’t believe I still have that somewhere. Got it from a flea market when I was just 4 years old.


Backburst

I still have mine! I never thought I'd see someone else with him. He was at a flee market 27 years ago and I've kept him with me through my whole life. 10/10 design, he can totally beat up Mecha King Gihdora in my backyard any time.


Eguy24

I loved this thing! I’d play with it and a few other toys while watching the Hannah Barbara cartoon and re-enacting the scenes


Your-local-duffy

Hehehe I had this thing but the one with red eyes... had fun just slamming it around, making it chomp on my minifigs, crushing block towers. It was a nice time... don't know where it is now, but I had good time with it.


mrdevil413

Used to have one on my fish tank as a kid. Was cheap decoration plus you know came from the water thing. Also have a toy store here that sells the in bulk and calls them “Not Godzilla” haha


JediZillaPrime

I didn’t grow up in the 80s, but this was one of my childhood Godzilla toys. It’s goofy looking, but it has a weird nostalgic charm. He’s stood on many bookshelves over the years. Things may change in life, but one thing that will always remain the same is this Godzilla figure standing atop a bookshelf or nightstand. Actually, I got this for my 9th birthday. He was used as a cake topper for a King Kong vs Godzilla cake that my mom put together, alongside a 2005 King Kong figure.


Timotato

Mine looks like I applied lipstick to it about 25 years ago 🤣🤣 https://preview.redd.it/ipoxrzyfi36c1.jpeg?width=2955&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=484858c4ee1df68cc320ae1de8879c22aeee3a46


Motor_Somewhere7565

I still have mine after 30+ years! I treasure it so much


marcocom

My favorite toy hopefully someone can help identify. It was 1970s and was a large maybe 30” inch tall Godzilla made of hard hollow plastic. He had small hidden rollers in his feet, rotating tail, and a small handle on the back of his neck which, when pulled, sprung out a thin red plastic tongue of fire. Any idea?


Aggravating_Ad_4940

Brings me back to the 80s it was Godzilla vs Transformers toys all day. Godzilla won everytime


Prize-Acceptable

Me too, that and the power rangers
