Gojira vs. Hedorah - Gojira - Movie Monster Series (Bandai)Gojira · Bandai

Bandai's Movie Monster Series brings collectors the Godzilla figure from the 1971 film Godzilla vs. Hedorah, standing approximately 160mm tall. This soft vinyl figure depicts the King of the Monsters as he appeared in one of the most environmentally conscious entries in the franchise. Godzilla vs. Hedorah stands apart from other Showwa-era Godzilla films for its overt ecological message and experimental visual style. Hedorah, the Smog Monster, is a alien creature that feeds on Earth's pollution, growing from a small tadpole-like form into a towering behemoth of sludge and toxic gas. The film's themes reflected Japan's rapid industrialization and the smog problems of the era, with Godzilla battling a monster literally born from humanity's waste. The film is also notable for its animated interstitials and the famous scene of Godzilla flying using his atomic breath. The figure measures roughly 160mm in height and is part of Bandai's affordable Movie Monster Series, which has produced soft vinyl figures of kaiju from across Godzilla's cinematic history. The line is known for its accessible price point and consistent scale, making it popular among both casual fans and dedicated collectors.
