preview

When it comes to larger-than-life sci-fi sculptures, no country can hang with Japan. It isn't enough to have the world's largest working robot under construction at the Port of Yokohama—that —so now Japan is also undertaking another icon of titan proportions: Godzilla.Related Story➡ You like badass beasts. So do we. The many film adaptions of Godzilla show off the fictitious sea monster at anywhere (164 to 394 feet), while this iteration of Godzilla is a mere 20 meters (65 feet) tall, 25 meters (82 feet) wide, and 55 meters (180 feet) long.While that may not be quite as huge as the real deal, it's still pretty friggin' big.

(It doesn't look like a full body is part of the plan). When the attraction is complete, it'll be a must-visit for Godzilla enthusiasts. The park will feature the world's first full-fledged, permanent Godzilla museum, a zipline that sends you straight into the monster's mouth, and a shooting game where you, presumably, try to kill the beast.Plus, the setup is actually based in Godzilla's real hometown: Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture.Godzilla Films 1954–1975 (Blu-Ray)$124.73 (45% off)Vintage Godzilla Shirt$18.99Godzilla Print (8x10)$19.95The Godzilla Encyclopedia: A Crowd-Sourced Guide$39.95"The legendary figure of Godzilla was first confirmed at the beginning of the Meiji era when a typhoon hit Awaji Island," according to one blog post on the theme park's website.
