Since we’ve got a healthy dose of Godzilla with Loot Crate this June, I thought we’d spend our Friday peeking over some rather outrageous Kaiju from the Godzilla franchises. Everything from Power Ranger rejects to really big lobsters, there’s a few out there that are worth a laugh. Let’s peruse, shall we?
Before any of you Godzilla super-fans get upset about how you think I chose these oddball Kaiju, I’m merely focusing upon their campy nature from the films! Trust me, I love the big guy Gojira like all of you do! If we can be honest with each other here, some of these other kaiju were flat out comical.
1. SpaceGodzilla
There are so many SpaceGodzilla lovers out there, but this entire film just made me facepalm with the adorableness of not just Godzilla but Baby Godzilla. They may as well have been toys being pitted against a crystal-shouldered Power Rangers monster. Man, SpaceGodzilla just wasn’t that great, but the uniqueness brought quite a few giggles.
2. Titanosaurus
Godzilla is too rad to be dealing with this fishy little weirdo. Titanosaurus wasn’t strong enough to stand on his own, so he plays second-fiddle to a sudden MechaGodzilla appearance to make it seem super intense. Dude, if your friend has to show up because you’re not threatening on your own – something’s wrong.
3. Baragon
We can all be real and admit this is just a Gremlin Kaiju, right? I mean, look at that thing. It was so adorable that I barely found him to seem remotely threatening. Sure, he’s huge and obviously in his size comes his terror – but his cuteness outweighs it. It’s like when you’re awesomely cute pup’s wiggly tail pushes everything off your coffee table. Drama, for sure, but check out that sweet face!
4. Kumonga and Kamacuras
Another situation where these two were so weak on their own that they paired them together to go against Godzilla. They barely ever did anything to thwart him, and let’s be real, you can tell they’re puppets. It’s almost too obvious at times! When so many killer fights between kaijus exist and Godzilla rocks them all – this is possibly one of the weakest lil’ duos.
5. Ebirah
A lobster? Really? Do I even need to continue saying anything about this? Hope you brought the drawn butter, Godzilla.
