Godzilla looks victorious

Toho Godzilla Suit 7

Soshingeki (1968)

ATTENTION CITIES OF THE WORLD: Our planet may be doomed.... Our earth may be devastated! The monsters are in revolt and civilization is in chaos. New York, Moscow, London and Peking are under attack. What city is next? What nation can survive? Forces of annihilation have been massed against us. Let our common war-cry be heard... "DESTROY ALL MONSTERS"
This suit can be seen in these movies:

The Soshingeki-Godzilla featured a well proportioned, bell-shape body with a pronounced breast bone.

It had a long neck and a head somewhat similar to the Daisenso-Godzilla, with defined brows and fairly menacing eyes. The eyes on this costume did not move, though the eyelids flutter briefly in the scene when King Ghidorah flies overhead at Mt. Fuji. The Soshingeki-Godzilla had the most starring roles, though by counting “unofficial” water/stunt shots, the Daisenso-Godzilla appeared in more movies. Aside from slightly different brows, the Soshingeki-Godzilla was not changed in Godzilla’s Revenge. In Godzilla vs the Smog Monster, the suit had rounded eyes, while the mouth had a frowning expression. In Godzilla on Monster Island, the suit had sharper eyes with movable eyelids. Unfortunately in the last two films, especially Godzilla on Monster Island, the Soshingeki-Godzilla was in an obviously dilapidated condition. For these three films, the Soshingeki-Godzilla has also been nicknamed All Kaiju (All Monsters)-Godzilla, Hedogoji and Gigan-Godzilla.
