Never been a fan of that googly wall eyed Godzilla ever. I still wonder why the Kong suit (and the one from ESCAPES) was so poorly executed. With all the manner of bizarre and off the wall monsters that Japanese film and TV could crank out at an alarming rate,you would think one based on an actual mammal would be easy enough to pull off. A gorilla suit shouldn't be any more difficult to execute than something like Pestar or Baltan (considering Rick Baker did a decent one in his teens for next to nothing). Looking at Goro in ULTRA Q also,it seems the Japanese FX people had some troubles with doing simian monsters. Makes me wonder why the monster in HALF HUMAN looks so good. Happy accident?

Apparently the FX people had even more problems preserving their costumes....the Goro costume was the same costume used in Kong vs. Godzilla!
