Terror of Mechagodzilla 1975

Toho Mechagodzilla Suit 2

Gyakushu-Mekagoji (1975)

It has become even more enraged! It has even more powerful weapons! Mechagodzilla has been resurrected! Take the Earth! - Under the aliens' command, the new monster Titanosaurus causes great destruction throughout Japan!
This suit can be seen in these movies:

The GyakushuMekagoji's appearance is very similar to that of its predecessor, the ShodaiMekagoji.

Without close examination it looks virtually identical to the ShodaiMekagoji suit. In comparison to its predecessor, this suit has longer finger missiles, one big metal piece on its hand plate, a more defined and prominent shoulder frill, one silver button on the chest, one silver button underneath the chest cannon, and two silver buttons above the crotch.

In addition to these differences, it possesses a triangle underneath the chest cannon, two lightning-like pieces coming up the chest, sharp spurs that stick out of the back of the feet, knee plates that get really small and thin half way and go around the back, a smooth and solid tail blade with three big bolts in it, V-shaped plates on the tail, and blue and orange “MG2” initials on its arms that stand for “Mecha Godzilla 2”, thus giving it the name Mechagodzilla 2.
