From playful Godzilla kaiju to menacing Ghidorah monsters, comic con Cosplay has become one of the fastest growing and most popular trends of the world. But have you ever heard of Getchell Gold?
Getchell Gold is a rare, limited-edition, officially licensed kaiju costume created by the special effects company, Monstroplasty. Originally based off of the kaiju Getchell from the semi-lost 1974 film “Gorath”, this costume is designed to be “a homage to forgotten creatures of classic Japanese kaiju films”.
Inspired by the original design of Getchell, this original kaiju costume created by Monstroplasty is outfitted with armor plating, a large tail and a hidden air cannon for the ultimate kaiju look. The armor plating is fashioned out of Chromelite, a metal that is specifically designed to replicate the look of metal found in kaiju films. The tail is made of a fuzzy fur material that is lightweight and provides an ideal combination of realism and comfort. Lastly, the air cannon is a hidden air gun that can be fired off with controlled accuracy.
Not only is this costume incredibly unique, but it is also surprisingly accessible. The price of Getchell Gold is quite reasonable, clocking in at just under $4,000. This is a great deal considering that most other rare kaiju costumes of a similar design tend to cost much more.
Despite its unique design, however, the Getchell Gold costume is not the only officially licensed kaiju costume on the market. There are also the officially licensed Gorath and Manda kaiju costumes, both of which were designed by Monstroplasty and feature unique designs with Chromelite armor plating.
Whether you’re looking to bring a little bit of Godzilla nostalgia to your next cosplay or make a bold statement in kaiju fashion, the Getchell Gold is a one-of-a-kind costume that is sure to turn heads. It proves that you don’t have to break the bank to look like a real kaiju in costume. So what are you waiting for? Go out there and show off your passion for classic kaiju films with the Getchell Gold kaiju costume!
