It looks exactly like the Godzilla suit from the Kiryu/Mechagodzilla films. <BR/><BR/>In fact, the more I look at the full body shot you posted the more I think that Raiga's look was ripped off from no less than three kaiju; Godzilla, Space Godzilla, and the Heisei Gamera. What do you think?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-658662284013692766.post-45924768698267160402008-12-31T16:57:00.000-08:002008-12-31T16:57:00.000-08:00Yeh, I thought that part with the guy yelling "God...Yeh, I thought that part with the guy yelling "Godzilla" "Godzilla!" was pretty funny too.<BR/><BR/>I also like the part where the stars of the movie are selling Raiga T-shirts and souvenirs.<BR/><BR/>God, Raiga is a close match to Godzilla. If you look at the close-up shot of the mouth, it looks spo on with the Godzilla from Godzilla X MechaGodzilla and Tokyo SOS. If you told me it was the same suite, yet modified, I would believe you.<BR/><BR/>They had to pay TOHO for this. I can't see anyway around it. Toho has no problem with you using Godzilla as long as you pay.<BR/><BR/>Yes, when I fist saw the frame featured before you can play the video, I thought....thats Godzilla....what the hell?Ken Hulseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18251290408099991105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-658662284013692766.post-3335487093152568212008-12-31T08:17:00.000-08:002008-12-31T08:17:00.000-08:00Hey Ken, After watching the trailer my first impre...Hey Ken, <BR/><BR/>After watching the trailer my first impression is that Deep Sea Monster Raiga was approached a bit tounge-in-cheek. Especially with the guy yelling "Godzilla! Godzilla!" at the beginning and another person shushing him and saying "No, no, no!" <BR/><BR/>And speaking of the big G', years ago Toho Studios actually sent representatives to a comic con that was being held in my STATE in order to prevent the selling of Godzilla (Rodan, etc.) related items! So it suprises me that they haven't attempted to take any legal action since Raiga looks a lot like Godzilla. <BR/><BR/>In fact, if you'd wanted to play a cruel joke on all of us regular visitors you could've edited the trailer to only show Raiga's head and posted that Toho was finally doing a new Godzilla film and I would've believed it! :-DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
