Don’t you love cheap-ass animation pumped out for the sake of… whatever it did… yeah, uhm…

Hanna-Barbera Godzilla: YABBA DABBA DOO!

Up from the depths, thirty-stories high, he breathes his fire! His head in the sky!

GODZILLA! GODZILLA! GODZILLA! and we don’t talk about Godzooky… Anyways, this yellowstone jurassic lizard was the godzilla that premiered in 1978’s aptly named ‘Godzilla’ show which was also known as the ‘Godzilla Power Hour’. So this dude can shoot lasers from his eyes because why the fuck not? Also, as per 70s television standards of ‘quality’, there’s a bunch of nonsensical animation errors, several blatant copies of monsters Hanna-Barbera didn’t get the rights to, and instead of his iconic SKREEOOOONK! It’s Ted Cassidy doing a bunch of roaring sounds, you love to see it. He also understood human language and has a nephew who we don’t talk about. The easy part about this design were official references, the hard part was actually the one I spent way too much time trying to find a good reference when it was on the fucking Toho channel because yes, every episode of this series were uploaded onto their channel… and all of them are separated in three parts instead of their whole run. What the fuck?

Changelog is as follows;
-Completely overhauled head, vastly more show accurate
-Blue dorsal plates instead of green, both are in the show
-Slightly darker color scheme overall, still show accurate
-Remodeled fingers and nails
-Nigh-complete removal of polyfill

Now normally, I’d jump straight to 1983… however, a challenger is approaching and frankly, it’s a doozie
