Interesting. If only he were full of turtle meat!
Mecha-King Ghidorah might honestly be my favorite Mecha-Kaiju design. I like it even more than the various MechaGodzilla iterations, who are all really cool to me! The thing just looks so cool and slick. I want the S.H. MonsterArts figure so bad!

If it was in your near vicinity and someone asked..
"Why did you poop your pants?"
"This one right here."

This guy right here:
Although this post will only make sense to Dutch gaffers. This fucker haunted my dreams when I was a kid.
Hehe. I was the same. Closed my eyes at that part of Fata Morgana.
Does the ending of Enemy count?
This guy here.
Came for this
A dragon is a pretty damn classic monster, and Smaug especially is quite immense and legendary. I'll absolutely allow it! Smaug made the Desolation of Smaug worth watching, very cool design and voice-work from Cumberbatch.

Belgium ones as well.
My vote goes to Heisei Gamera as well though.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Sin, from Final Fantasy X.
I think what I like most about this monster when compared to most is that it doesn't show up in a climactic event. It's always lurking somewhere, it's invincible, and it always comes back. It shows up, does its monster thing, leaves and then comes back and does it again.
Cthulu and the biblical Leviathan, too. Sea monsters in general are really cool. Even Moby Dick is cool, and he's just a big whale.

Oooh, this is a good choice! I love FFX, and Sin was a very interesting monster.
I'd be down with this. An alien cyborg with hooks/chainsaws for hands. What's not to like?! Unleash the Gigan!

I really want to check this out. The description given earlier for this was really cool. This dude is basically a god?
Do Persona/Shadows/Demons from SMTverse count?
What about Angels from Evangelion.
Digimon?
No?
Okay then.
Angels are definitely kaiju in my eyes. There are also many Digimon who would count IMO, like MegaSeadramon for example. From what I played of P3 and P4, some of those things seem pretty big! Hard to get a idea of the scale though.

Hmm, I guess she could? That would be in the vein of like "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman", right? Yeah, I'll allow it. Not what comes to mind for me personally when thinking of a monster, but whatever floats your boat lol.

the first Godzilla movie I saw was when he fought Mothra. So Mothra ftw.
I'd like to have a friendly challenge for that title some day
Gentlemen please, I think this may be a 3-way match for that title.
I will fight all of you.
For me I'd think it'd have to be Mothra. I've always loved her design and her track record against the big G. But then again...Biollante's design is pretty boss, and Destroyah's just plain badass. I honestly can't decide!
Monster X is also pretty cool. Especially because his final form is...GASP King Ghidorah.

Gamera. He's a giant turtle with rocket legs. That's cool.

I dont actually like Final Wars all that much but I did think that Monster X/Kaiser Ghidorah was cool.
I think four legs suits Ghidorah better than two and having multiple forms is neat.

I pick Ghidorah for being the only monster bad-ass enough to take on Rodan, Mothra and Godzilla at the same time. He's Godzilla's prime enemy for a reason because a giant three headed Dragon from Space is awesome.
Followed by the original MechaGodzilla. It helps that the Showa series went out on a high note thanks to him being the final villain.
Something cute I wanted to share for a while:
The "Garamones" playing a punk rendition of the Ultraman theme.

Also check out Tsuburayas Channel for non-geolocked episodes of Redman (no, sadly not that one) for ultra-cheap vintage Kaiju action.

I was just about to post this and happened to see your post before doing so. Giant Claw has been one of my favorites since I was a kid, mostly because of how goofy it looks.

This guy right here. I can't believe this scene (jump to 1:10) was shot in 50 years ago.
And look at this re-imaginative Baltan by Oyama Ryu. Badass.
