Incoming: The Godzilla Collection On DVD
I guess it's time to start thinking about holiday gift giving (not that TV commercials and newspaper ads haven't been shoving it down our throats since Halloween). Along those lines, it looks like The Godzilla Collection will be a terrific DVD package for those who love Japanese monster movies.
Today, says the press release, "Classic Media will release The Godzilla
Collection — a deluxe DVD box set with 10 classic Godzilla movies.
This ultimate set is part of the Toho Master Collection and includes the
complete, un-cut original Japanese film, Gojira."

The folks who are doing PR for the big G may well be sending over a copy. If so, I promise to post an in-depth review of $80 The Godzilla Collection. Although I know this right now: the best of the bunch is Godzilla: King of Monsters. You just can't beat Terry Morse's directing and Raymond 'Perry Mason' Burr's acting.
That there makes my little horror loving heart go pitter patter with excitement.
I LOVE GODZILLA and have since I was born.
Does anyone remember the big Godzilla toys in the late 70's with the fists that could be launched off of his hands (or her hands if you like that drivel that was the American Godzilla staring Mathew Broadrick)?
Goldberg maybe you could track down a link or a picture to that?
Yeh, the Broderick Godzilla was SO bad. I'll look around for some Godzilla toys, too, Microwaved.
