Imperial Toys Godzilla Merchandise Blitz Part 1

October 12, 2015 By Mantooth In Uncategorized 4 Comments

Imperial made the 1980s more fun by laying out some truly inspired Godzilla merchandise from the insane bubble blowing bong to the more logical PVC Godzilla.

I still have mine that I purchased 30 (sigh!) years back, it followed through every dorm room/crappy apartment and is still kicking!

I dunno. I'd like to buy a bubble blowing Godzilla toy, even now as an adult.

I think I'd have fun with all the strange looks I would get. ;D

Last year I bought a skateboarding Godzilla for my little niece, a made-in-China figure, if I remember well.

I thought it was funny, but man, that bubble blowing one… and Imperial, no less.
I don't think we ever had that one in the 80's, or I would have bought it.

man, that pvc godzilla seemed like it was everywhere in the late 80s…from the big chain stores to the small variety stores. and not to forget its long running appearance on the Roseanne show..

"bubble blowing bong"

That's priceless. 😀 These days with "vaping" so popular, I'd love to see a "Godzilla Conversion".
