Godzilla!

In a panic to find something important that I was sure was buried in the closet of my home office, I found something even better - Godzilla toys!

These are 4-inch plastic representations of Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra (larva), Mothra (moth), King Caesar, King Ghidorah, Gigan, Mecha-Godzilla, and Battra. I got these back in 1992 and had forgotten all about them!

I was thrilled at the discovery, and I used that joyful momentum to make another impulse purchase - Ganesha Games' Mighty Monsters by Andrea Sfiligoi.

Cruising the pages of the PDF, I found stats for ALL of my monsters cleverly disguised with non-copyright-infringing names like "Giant Radioactive Regenerating Lizard" and "Three-Headed Evil Space Dragon." Oh, Andrea, you clever scamp!

The fliers are going to need stands. As for buildings for the monsters to crush, I figure if I think 1:500, I should be able to make or purchase just enough to add strategy to a fight.

Although I've got other solo gaming projects in the works, I'm pumped about trying Mighty Monsters very soon - maybe even as a Monster Island Solo Tournament.

By the way, I never found what I had been originally looking for in the closet.
