The Cybot Godzilla was introduced in the 1984 film The Return of Godzilla and was a model that was used alongside the traditional screen used costume. Return of Godzilla was an interesting film that is part of the legacy of this monster as it shows a different tone for the king. A new model was used for this film to give the King of the Monsters a deadlier look, which was a impressive 16 foot tall animatronic version of Godzilla. This model gave him a darker look, featuring longer teeth and a more aggressive expression, which stepped away from the 50s and 60s design. X-Plus is now giving Godzilla fans the ability to bring this piece of monster movie history home as they debut their own Cybot model that comes in at 13.38" tall. Everything fans love about The Return of Godzilla is faithfully sculpted here, and he'll make a great addition to any monstrous collection. Pre-orders are live online for $175 with a June 2024 release date.
