I don't pull this out of nowhere. Like, Matt Frank and Chris Mowry and people like that said they were scutes in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth. Them being "dorsal fins" is made fun of a bit there, but spines? I thought spines were a collection of bones that people had in their backs. Look at it yourself:



This is RoE #2 by the way. That's Zilla's silhouette in the background. I can assure you I did not "pull this out of nowhere.", I just always thought Godzilla's dorsal plates are called "Spines". When I was getting into Godzilla years ago, I remember a quote used by one of the characters in the 1995 film Godzilla vs. Destroyah that tells me what Godzilla's dorsal plates can be called, one of the characters said "His spines are melting, it's time". I just couldn't escape from that, and that's been so many years, so I just called them "spines", and as the years go by, I've really gotten used to it.

I thank you for the evidence, I'll leave the articles the way they are, but when I post a comment somewhere or I post something in forums or something, I will still call them "spines", because again, I am more used to calling them "spines".
