I suspect they're bogus, and this photo was arranged to show the major effects workers at work on their major effect while trying to suggest a sense of mystery about just what, exactly, they did.

Either that or they are removing a >>>YUCK!<<< Amazonian sized Creature tapeworm.

Godzilla had similar issues. The first model was something way too heavy and stiff. As is, the Gojira suit weighed 200 lb. The guy in the suit ran about 130 lb. Subsequent suits came in at around 100 lb.

They look like corset laces. How was the suit closed?
