The King of the Monsters was ready to explode (or implode) in 1995's Godzilla vs. Destoroyah, giving the radioactive reptile a fiery appearance with deadly side effects. Godzilla's memorable "lava look" is captured with incredible detail in Bandai's new Gigantic Series figure that is limited to 500 items and will be available at this weekend's G-FEST in Rosemont, IL, before stomping over to the West Coast for the San Diego Comic-Con via Bluefin Distribution.
