SuperWalk Destoroyah
This is my pièce de résistance: the preeminent Destoroyah toy.
My beloved SuperWalk Destoroyah is over 12" tall, 24" long, with a huge 20" wingspan. Batteries allow him to walk, flap his wings, and roar. He is covered with a glossy rubber skin, which stretches as he walks and roars, making it look very realistic. I just can't tell you enough about how much I love this thing. Heck, I even have the box on display because it looks so awesome. My best friend Ramonette got it for me from Shirokiya, a Japanese department store in Honolulu. Needless to say, she found it substantially cheaper than other sources (try $40).
I've waited a long time for the pictures to make this shrine, the initial raison d'etre for this whole site. Destoroyah is my favorite monster, and it is a dream come true that I got such a realistic one to display with my collection. My most prized Godzilla possession needed its own page. This DX motorized figure is so photogenic that I even debated putting this page in the Art Institute. I didn't thumbnail these pics since I like them so much, so give them a few seconds, please.

Tell me this is not the quintessential |

Flip the switch and watch him bellow! |

The whole Destoroyah gets into it as he walks. Legs move and wings flap. The legs even pull the rubber making his arms sway! |

"You really think Irys, Orga, or MechaG '02 are better than me? Well, here's how I would look to them! These knee horns would work fine for those puny 50-meter monsters" |

Just like the movie, Destoroyah is a whole head taller than Godzilla.
Talk about perfect compatibility. See why I waited on the Bandai 9-inch vinyl Destoroyah? |

Even with all those great pictures, there's really only one way to capture the true essence of Click to see its actual size. |
What's with all this French up there? Well, Destoroyah has this certain, shall we say, je ne sais quoi.
