Kaiju/Patchi/Menko Cards

Here's a sheet of interesting Kaiju cards I found recently on flickr.

Found these at this Menko site.

"These are Patchi Kaiju cards from the 70's. The company basicaly took pics of existing Kaiju and collaged them into different monsters in order to avoid licensing." - image and quote source.

The above are Kaiju Menko cards from the 60's.

More found here.
I'll be doing Kaiju week probably in January or February but until then, here's a related link with some really insane toys.

Kaiju Guts



Here is another great collection of illustrations on flickr from Modern Fred. This time we have Kaiju paintings, strangely some of these are like medical cross sections showing the colorful guts of the Kaiju beasts. I found more of these cross section drawings elsewhere, if anyone knows where I can see more I'd love to check em out!






Update 1/6/08 - The following is an artwork from an art book by Takeshi Murakami titled "Little Boy" as provided by cemenTIMental in the comments of this post.

And here is yet another amazing artwork of a Godzilla monster with its guts on display. This is an anatomical diagram of "Flaming Monster Gamera" from An Anatomical Guide to Monsters, 1967, 1997. Text: Shoji Otomo. Illustrator: Shogo Endo.

Above work found in this article at Tinselman. Check out this installation with more similar kaiju beasts with cross sections displaying their juicy gut stuff.
If anyone knows anyplace online where I can find all of the artwork from "An Anatomical Guide to Monsters" illustrated by Shogo Endo, I'd REALLY like to see, thanks! Hopefully they all end up on flickr sooner or later.
