Talk:Godzilla Misconceptions/@comment-26155014-20150418142729

there is a very popular misconception, i saw everyone thinks it's true, is that the Godzilla suits are made out of rubber.

THIS IS INCORRECT: these costumes are foam fabricated- sheets of urethane foam are cut,glued and sculpted into the creature. then the outside is covered with contact adhesive ( a flexible glue used in the industry and used to glue the foam) and then the skin texture in pushed-in with wooden tools. finally,the suit is sealed with latex rubber (a natural rubber originated from trees) and a good coat of paint.

in the showa movies the used baking clay for heads.
