This Hedorah is in new condition, no scuffing or loss of paint. Hedorah is, quite possibly, the most popular kaiju to be produced in vinyl form aside from Godzilla. Despite only appearing in one Showa film, Hedorah has inspired more vinyl figures than most of Godzilla’s other foes combined.
In Godzilla vs Hedorah (1971), Hedorah begins life as a series of very small tadpole like aliens. These aquatic entities eventually gather together, fusing and morphing into Hedorah’s first form. His various forms are, from that point on, more of adaptions rather than an evolutionary process. If he needs to fly – he morphs into his flying state and takes to the skies. If water is in his path, he simply transforms into his aquatic state and makes way. Hedorah’s final form, however, is the one most are familiar with. This form was, no doubt, created by the creature in order for him to take a similar stance to Godzilla. In this final bipedal form, Hedorah attacked Godzilla brutally and with much greater results than in his flying form, putting his toxic gas, sludge, and lazerbeams to full use. Godzilla was only able to defeat the Smog Monster with the aid of two giant electromagnetic panels created by humans. The King of the Monsters fired his atomic breath into the panels, which regenerated the beam as electricity. The immensely high voltage shot through Hedorah’s entire molecular structure, dehydrating the sludge-like behemoth into a mountain of ashes. Despite this final victory, Hedorah had proven himself to be one of Godzilla’s toughest opponents ever. 6.5 inches tall
