GojiBill’s Collection

Do you have that classic big Godzilla toy from the early 80's or maybe it was even the late 70's that I think was put out by Mattel where you could pull a lever in the back of his neck and a fire like like tongue would stick out of his mouth and your could push a button to fire off one of it's hands. I forget the name of it but had it as a kid. Loved that thing.

I believe you are referring to Mattel’s Shogun Warriors Godzilla from 1977. I do not have that one, but would love to add it to my collection. One of the earliest Godzilla figures. I’ve seen it for sale a couple of times, but I can’t bring myself to spend the usual asking price. An excellent piece of Godzilla history.

Fun fact, the company Toynami released two updated versions of the Shogun Warriors Godzilla, the standard release (black) and SDCC15 exclusive (green). Both were awesome looking, but carried a hefty price tag as well, $230-350.

Above all else, I would love to get my hands on the Kongzilla statue from Bowen Designs. I’ve only seen it once in person at a yard sale and that one was in bad shape (damaged). I’ve seen it pop up on eBay occasionally, but the asking price is insane.

Yeah that's it. I remember when Toynami re-released a version of it but as you mentioned at a hefty price. If I was gonna spend that much I'd opt to buy an original. I had it as a kid and have fond memories of it. Was a great toy. It was so simple it was fun. Just the fact they simply painted fire on the tongue to replicate his fire breath was genius :)

Woahwee, that is one huge Goji collection, very good job my man :D

My work office is currently being remodeled with new furniture, so I had to bring my desk collection home. Now I have even more Goji at home.

This is the biggest Godzilla collection I have ever seen!  Funny how you say, the house belongs to my wife but the basement is mine.  I feel the same way.  It is a good tradeoff in my opinion.  I know of only one guy that had as big a Godzilla collection.  he used to live in new Jersey and had a comic book store called Outer limits.  he loved Godzilla and would travel to japan every year to get more and more stuff but your setup is the best I have ever seen!
