『フェス・ゴジラ4 オペレーション ジェットジャガー』本編

                   

Jet Jaguar figure

 

I got this figure a while ago.  It is hanging on the wall.  I haven't opened it up or anything, since that would destroy the collectability.  Also, it isn't really articulated, so it looks better this way.  I had a Bandai Jet Jaguar way back in the 90s, but when it went out of print (or whatever they call it when toys are no longer made) I sold it for about 5 times the original cost.  Always keep the tags on, kids!  That was the most boring pose they could have done.  This one is made by Playmates, and they generally have some far more dynamic poses for their toys and figures.

Godzilla vs. Megalon (1976) - Restored US Theatrical Trailer (720p)

cowardly MOTW- Gigan

 

Gigan has, sadly, always been a great monster in search of a great movie.  His first one, Godzilla On Monster Island (Godzilla vs Gigan, 1972) is my least favorite of the first series of Godzilla movies.  I saw it when it was released in the theaters in the US (and again, it was uncut except for the credits).  This was in 1978, and by then I had seen most of the movies all the stock footage had come from originally.  I was also starting to be more discerning about what is a good movie.  While I like the movie far more now than I did then, it's still pretty dreary.

more Jet Jaguar

Just a random sampling of Jet Jaguar grabs from the ill fated Godzilla vs Megalon DVD from Media Blasters.  I sure wish Titra/Titan had been able to dub the final four Godzilla movies,  as they wouldn't get nearly as much flack as they do now.

Godzilla vs Robots and more!

it's that time of year again, the all Japanese monsters version of Famous Monsters is about to be released.  this cover is an homage to Basil Gogos' cover for FM #135 (possibly the greatest Godzilla cover of all time, I must say).  this one is pretty darn eye catching as well, huh?

edited by the talented August Ragone, this issue will be featuring a plethora of giant robots from the land of the rising sun.  there's a reason Jet Jaguar is gracing the cover of the magazine along with the original (and best) MechaGodzilla.  inside will contain even more robotic renegades and heroic automatons to thrill and chill you.

Jet Jaguar, get Godzilla!

Jet Jaguar fired my imagination when I saw the trailer for GODZILLA VS MEGALON in the theater.  I wanted to see more of "Robotman".  I'm pretty sure I wanted to see all the monsters, since I'd never seen Gigan at all, but it was our two heroes that meant the most to me.
