Artist and friend of kaiju, Coop, has posted a huge amount of photos of his kaiju collection. In his post on Positive Ape, he talks about how collecting this stuff pre-internet was so tricky. Not only did he have to scour stores to find them, but without the internet, there was no real resource to identify what he was missing. It’s indeed really hard to think about doing this as most collecting is 100% internet-based now.
