The likeness isn't bad, especially for the time period. You can certainly tell it's Godzilla from the 1984 movie. Paint apps are minimal, but appropriate. And like virtually all Godzillas (except 1962 and 2000) he's coal-black, something American toy manufacturers just can't seem to grasp.
Somehow this guy throughout the years has maintained his tag. It's not in particularly good shape, but all things considered, it's held up pretty well.
Here's a TV promo from 1985 featuring Godzilla, brought to you by Dr. Pepper, the soft drink that's out of the ordinary! Like YOU.
5 out of 5 - Simply incredible!
4 out of 5 - Pretty awesome!
3 out of 5 - Cool enough, I suppose.
2 out of 5 - Not quite good enough.
1 out of 5 - Pretty horrific!
0 out of 5 - No redeeming quality at all.

I think this was the figure that launched a thousand imitators. My neighbor had this figure, but I wasn't a big enough fan to care which version I got. I ended up with one of the knock-off versions and it sat on my dresser for years – probably until I went to college. What's funny to me is that my son now plays with that same knock-off Godzilla. He even tries to make a Godzilla sound, which is the sound he makes for Bears, Lions, and Dinosaurs, "RAAAHHHH!"
This is really a nice piece. Godzilla 1984 figures are incredibly rare even in Japan. Thanks for sharing.
