Mechagodzilla 2
The year is 1992 AD – To counter Godzilla’s threat to the planet’s survival , Japan’s Counter G Bureau recruited the world’s brightest scientists to build a combat machine. The first machine was called ” Garuda ” but his combat capabilities were limited and a much more powerful machine was required. They saved a robot from the future, Mecha-King Ghidorah, to study its advanced technology. They applied the technology of numerous weapons and created the most powerful machine to attack Godzilla, called ‘Mechagodzilla’.
