File:Shogun Warriors and Godzilla from Mattel (Commercial, 1978)

Description
Here's another commercial for the Shogun Warriors line of toys by Mattel, this one featuring the mighty and monstrous Godzilla. (the first ad we saw didn't feature him)

My cousin Danny had this Godzilla, and it was pretty awesome, especially the hand-operated fire tongue and the spring-launched fist (was the real Godzilla able to remove his hand at will and launch it at his prey? Somehow I don't recall that.)

Ah, for the days when they had toys for kids that launched stuff that could potentially put your eye out. ;-)

"Is he friend, or foe? You can decide."

This aired on local Chicago TV on Monday, September 11th 1978.

About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:

The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,600+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at: http://www.fuzzymemories.tv/index.php?contentload=donate
