Detail
The 1964 film Godzilla vs. Mothra brought about one of the most famous, most popular and most liked versions of the King of the Monsters, MosuGoji. this version was less bulky and had less reptilian features than the previous KingGoji version. The face was softened and made to look a bit more mammalian, the snout was shortened, and the eyes took on a more malevolent appearance. Finally, the tail of this version was lengthened and made a bit more elegant. This version, with slight alterations, a new, sturdier head, and the addition of a prominent tongue, was also used in the next Godzilla film, Ghidorah the 3-Headed Monster. After this film, the suit was replaced by a new version, DaisensoGoji.

Trivia

 * MosuGoji was the first Godzilla suit to be used in more than one movie.
 * The suit was also used by Eiji Tsubuyaya and Tsuburaya Productions to create the monsters Gomess (Ultra Q) and Jirass (Ultraman), but Jirass had DaisensoGoji’s head and MosuGoji’s body because the head of MosuGoji was already used for Gomess.
 * The MosuGoji was reborned into the world as Godzilla fan made a costume out of the same fragments that Toho used to make their Godzilla suits, giving it a striking resemblance to the original costume. To make an exact replica he had to use several images of the monster.
