The Godzilla LEGO set is created by LEGO Builder Matthew Esposito and he created a small-scale brick variation of the iconic monster. It is modeled after the 2019 movie 'King of Monsters version of Godzilla. The small structure stands at only a few inches tall when it is built but it is detailed with intricate accents. It has a large model by scale and a long tail to follow behind it. Notably, it is able to blow blue flames as a unique and playful touch.
LEGO builder Matthew Esposito notes “I was really blown away by the new look of the Godzilla in these newer movies. I was fascinated by how this new iteration of Godzilla was designed, and I thought that this new look would translate incredibly well into LEGO. This model would make a great LEGO set because I believe that, with the new movie coming soon into theaters and onto streaming services, I believe that many people would be hyped and excited to watch this new movie, as well as have their own buildable Godzilla at hand to play with.”
