Title: Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla alternate footage

Check out this ...

Aside from the hilariously misleading title, there's some alternate footage in there.  Mechagodzilla stabs King Caesar in the gut with his finger missiles, and there's a different "transforming into Godzilla" scene.  Does anyone have access to the German cut of Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla?  Is that footage in there?  I'd love to know!

As Spock would say- "Fascinating!"

Along with DESTROY ALL MONSTERS, GODZILLA vs MECHA GODZILLA is my favorite  Toho monster mash! Karma!!!!!  :thumbup:
But what's with the "Kong" name in the alternate title? Weird-at the end of the clip-"King Kong Gegan Godzilla" wha?  I noticed the Japanese like to throw out the name "Frankenstein' in their overseas releases ..is this a glich-or is there some kinda sense to it?

This poster really confuses me-it seems like it may be INFRAMAN...but who knows?

I'm still on the look out for the German version of Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla for this very same reason.

This link has some info and some photos...

@RC. That's Kamen Rider's "Kung Fu Riders aka Frankenstein's Kung Fu Monster."

Well, I think this all may have started with the movie Frankenstein Conquers The World.   

The relationship between Frankenstein and the Gargantuas may not be clear to everyone, and to be fair, Toho never really solidified the relationship in a definite way.

That said, whatver film company is making this mess is piggybacking onto Toho's Frankenstein, much in the same way there were many Bruce Lee ripoffs and spinoffs after his untimely death. Short and sweet-it's just another moneymaker.
