Ok /m/. Post your favorite Tokusatsu Kaiju/Alien/Kaijin
Long Godzilla is long.
I think this was from a thread that 404'd recently. Anyways, Gomora was always one of my favorite Ultra kaiju.
Just out of curiousity, is it just me, or are monsters in Tokusatsu forgettable due to their monster of the week status? I mean there are memorable ones, but the majority I don't seem to remember whenever I revisit a show. Does anyone feel this way about monsters of the week?
Yanakgi: I want him in me SO BAD~!
>>11129808
Well, they probably have ranks.
A listers are like, Godzilla, Gamera, Gomora
B listers are Red King, Rodan, and Daimajin
Then you have Z listers like Dora Cerces, Namegon and Giant Lizard from King Kong vs Godzilla.
>>11129420
Mothra.
>>11129444
Pinhead Godzilla, you mean. His head's like the size of an Ultra suit actor's fist.
>>11129808
Yay, I've been reposted!
Yeah, I agree. Even the ones I remember are all like just ugly and jumbled messes whenever I try to recall them.
>>11129420
Is Red King a mutated ear of corn?
>>11130783
Again repost here. He is a mutated Michelin Tire man. colonel ethniqua
>>11130753
Yes.
>>11131982
He does appear to be sporting an innovating tread pattern that surely would provide excellent performance in wet and slippery road conditions.

this thread is a nutshell
I thought the whole head within a head concept was cool. I heard it inspired the monster Raiju from Pacific Rim.
I offer you this picture, /m/
Caption away,
>>11132239
muh ultra
>>11132239
The only one I made
Like Twin Tail but less goofy. I actually liked this episode.
Don't forget Mr. RAPEFACE
>>11132239
i am become corncob
>>11132302
That thing from the episode with the little kaiju traveling with the circus was creepier. It smiled.
>>11132105
Gemola? This is bad comedy.
>>11132314
Is this the one?
The whole dinosaur-plant hybrid thing from space was kinda cool, even if the execution was shallow.
>>11132346
Pic related was cute. The actual bad guy had a rapist grin. Like Imitation Agul.
Also, that episode was all kinds of feels.
>>11129420
I really like Thunder Darambia's design.
>>11132202
I doubt direct inspiration, but yea, at least parallel evolution ^^
This is a kaijin, right?
>>11132239
>>11132512
She'd be anything for Raija-sama.
B-B-B-BUUMP!
I haven't watched that many Ultra shows, but Bemstar always stood out to me. He looks a bit goofy but somehow that doesn't bother me.
I always thought Nosferu (Nosfer?) was great in both design and practice.
>>11134967
MUh Nigga
Why Ultraman has the best monsters?
They're just so cool
>>11129420
How the fuck did Red King get so popular? He was one of the worst suits back in 1966, was killed by being thrown over Ultraman's shoulder.
His only claim to fame is ripping the wing off Peguila, killing Pigmon, and screaming.
>>11135237
Tsuburaya started the whole thing. And he learned the effects and skills from making Godzilla and other Toho kaiju films before 1966.
>>11135213
>>11135240
He's essentially the first professional wrestler.
And it wasn't Peguila, it was Chandler.
>>11135039
That's from Nexus, isn't it. Goddamn did it have some creepy kaijus.
>>11135255
forgot relevant clip; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S3-UH2rUIQ
I've always been a fan of all the Zettons.
>>11135514
ZET-TON
Still my favorite after all these years
>>11135715
I remember being confused about Zetton. His official subtitle is space dinosaur, but he looks like a beetle. Also, he doesn;t appear to have an actual face. So, what he is exactly? I mean, beyond being the Ultraman killer of course.
>>11135893
"Oh that one! He's on the mescalin!"
>>11132239
>>11135893
BROTHER!
>>11138142
He's Zetton.
>>11138142
Dinosaurs just look different in space. Duh.
>>11129420
Only the best.
>tfw he's not in the new movie
>>11142234
Brother?
>>11141346
Behold!
>>11142753
What is it's name?
>>11143319
>filename
>>11135263
Who or what is this, and where is it from?
>>11142753
So, it poops out the front and suffers from Hemorrhoids?
>>11149163
It's actually two things joined ass to chin.
>>11148861
Ambassador Magmar
>>11150254
How about a serious answer there, champ?
I don't know about favorite, but I still remember this guy.
>>11129420
Biollante
>>11129420
CORNZILLA, KING OF ALL PRODUCE!
>>11132226
good taste there sir
there are to many i like Dada, Namegon, Kemur, Vakishim, Dorako, Gesura, Hedorah, Ebirah, Gigan
Gyaos. Went from a goofy vampire, to a fucking hellspawn.
>>11151080
He's from Ambassador Magmar, and the monster's name is the fucking file name.
I like Gomora, I'm a sucker for bad guys becoming heroes. And I'll be sad when Tsuburaya makes him a villain again.
>>11153647
I don't think they will, since Galaxy was popular enough. As long as Rei stays around.
Hell, Rei, Gomora, Booska, Pigmon, Ultraman Zearth and Ultraman Nice were leading the New Years parade and dancing to Booska New Year.
>>11142248
Mah Angga
I like this old guy, too. Very edgy.
I like DoraCirce
>>11154418
I don't like you one bit.
From Gaia
>>11154418
Dad?
>>11154418
Fucking love Guiron. I wish they'd bring him back.
>>11154418
>>11139659
>>11135893
>>11157557
I had the Trendmasters Gamera figures when I was younger, but Guilon/Guiron was the only survior from my childhood. I miss having the extra blade piece that shot out, but oh well.
Fun fact: his Japanese name, Guilon, stems from the English word Guillotine. If you've seen the movie, it makes sense in context.Knifehead was my favorite kaiju design from the film, even though the NECA figure I bought broke in the package
>>11157616
I feel as if though I have a fetish for Kaiju that use parts of their bodies as weapons
>Gigan has sword/hook things
>Megalon has drills
>Guiron and Knifehead's bladefaces
>Dorako has those hooks
>Gudon has whips
And then there was this guy.

>"What the Hell is that noise?"
>"That's exactly it, Hell IS that noise."
Not exactly a Toku Kaiju, but I always liked Taoking from the Big Guy and Rusty comic. This is also pretty cool
>>11157724
Forgot pic
Best Kaiju team since Gigan and King Ghidorah, IMO.
This guy is pretty cool.
>>11151093
what is this beautiful tool
BAMP
>>11157739
>replacing Gigan/Ghidorah/Megalon
This guy was pretty cool too>>11157550
I wonder how they came up with designs like this one. Baffling as fuck, and I didn't even post Power Rangers on this thread.
>>11165200
No Ultraman series is complete without a beetle monster
>>11165200
Well, it's simple.
>What's threatening?
>BEETLES
>Good, what else?
>UM, SPIKES
>Okay...
>AND THROW SOME GUNS ON IT
>JOHNSON YOU'RE A FUCKING GENIUS!!
And then Johnson-san gets a raise and you've got a kaiju.
>>11165233
The design still perplexes me though. Why does he have those weird thorns and not claws? Budget concerns or creativity? I honestly want to know what goes through the head of suit designers when they make this stuff.
>>11130753
>>11129808
>>11165258
Personally, I remember some Ultra Kaiju, but the seijins usually evade me memory. I almost never remember the Power Rangers monsters because they're usually ridiculous villains who play cannon fodder of the week roles. I remember this guy somehow, but it's probably because he helped Ransik and fought the Rangers over the course of the episode. (More screentime)

Baltan is like the best fucking alien ever.
>Started out as the Cicada Man in Ultra Q
>Suddenly appears in episode 2 of Ultraman
>Comes back as Baltan II
>Was revived by Mephilas as Baltan III
>Was planned for UltraSeven but due to the costume being almost un-usable, was left out.
>Appeared in Ultra Fight and fought UltraSeven
>Appeared in Return of Ultraman as Baltan Jr.
>Was going to appear in Ultraman Ace
>Appeared in Redman as one of the many aliens to break away from the Ultra series.
>Was in Star Ultraman
>Was going to be in Leo
>Was in 80 twice.
>>11165313
>>11165329
>Was a member of the Sinestro Corps.
>>11129420
this is gross
>>11165351
To be fair, so was Zorak, Predator and Xenomorph. He also fought Morning Musume's Mini Moni. He was even on Takahashi's Castle.
>>11165329
Baltan is THE alien of Ultra series. Doesn't matter if you bring back Yapool, Nackle, Guts, Magma, or any of them, none will have the impact and the feel Baltan will bring.
>>11165398
It also helps having a memorable laugh.
>>11165313
Baltan and Metron were the only Seijin I really liked. I don't remember many of the others from the Ultra Series
Remember that time Godzilla's buddies got drunk and tried to sneak into a Kirby game?
koma thunder
>>11166426
What?
>>11129420
Your mom.
The giant space chicken bounty hunter with hooks for hands and a saw in his stomach.
Gan Q laughs at you
>>11171747
>>11166525
God, now i remember a niconico MAD that always use this guy as joke material
Whenever I say Kaiju at work everyone is like "OH PACIFIC RIM OH PACIFIC RIM"
and I fucking want to stab them with Bic pens
>>11174460
Then say giant monster instead.
>>11174460
I remember having some weird discussions about Kaiju with roommates in college. None of them knew any kaiju beyond Godzilla and those "giant bastards" from Ultraman. Everyone I knew also hated Cloverfield, and they thought Toho created King Kong.
