And don’t forget that robot from Godzilla vs. Space Godzilla, i think it was Mogurea or something similar. Plus, not only does Jet Jaguar grow, but he **programs** himself to grow! ---

[QUOTE] \*Originally posted by tracer \* [li] **Giant Robot** from _Voyage Into Space_. He can fire missiles out of his fingertips and looks like the Sphinx from the neck up. Plus, on _Johnny Sako and his Flying Robot_, he also gained the ability to fire lasers from his eyes and breathe fire.[/li][/quote] Oooh – I forgot about this. “Use robot punch!” 🙂 > [@](#): > > I also do not include the _Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers_ Zords, because they have human pilots inside them. Plus, they make me wanna puke. \*\* I suppose that also leaves out Pokemon as well, despite the fact that they’re Japanese, monsters (“Pokemon” being “pocket monsters”), and have appeared in films. Otherwise, I’d pick Togepi – it’s cute, it’s portable, and it can blow the living shit out of just about anything. Barring cartoon monsters, I’d go for Gamera. No reason, really, I just think a giant killer turtle is kind of cool. ---

Gamera isn’t a “killer” turtle! He is friend to all children! It says so, right here… ---

Darn it, when are they going to release _Son of Godzilla_ and _Godzilla 1985_ on DVD?! ---

How about **Barbra Streisand** vs. **Jerry Lewis**? ---

To be fair, Rhodan’s absolutely crappy outside the free-throw line. 😉 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/destroy-all-monsters/79490.md?page=1)
