Here’s some more Giant Monster ads — all part of a series from Argentina:

Cute, eh?

Via Giant Monsters Attack!

Here is the ultimate in modern apartment living — a building guaranteed to protect you from earthquakes, ‘copter attack, and the general mayhem of society. It’ll even make sure you get to work on time. Too bad about everyone else, of course. And one wonders what life would be like once Godzilla turned up?

For Kaiju Search-Robot Avery, who runs a Squid Training School:

A rather nice compendium of Ultra-kaiju weirdness in this video for the Ultraman FE3 game, even if they’re animated rather than suited up.

Toho Studios, Godzilla copyright owner, is apparently suing Subway because of this ad.

Undoubtedly this makes a reference to Godzilla (giant reptile, Japanese city under attack), but this looks even less like Godzilla than GINO from the 1998 US Godzilla.

But, on the other hand, here’s an ad that didn’t cause Toho to sue:

I just heard that Undead Backbrain and my review writing on roberthood.net and on Horrorscope has won me a Ditmar Award (Australian Spec Fic Awards) at the National SF Convention in Perth, which was held over the Easter weekend.

Thanks to everyone who voted for me — and thanks to all you out there who read my ramblings.

A list of the other winners, including my partner Cat Sparks for her story “A Lady of Adestan”, can be found here.
