Dating back to 1995, a towering statue of the Heisei-era Godzilla has been proudly on display at Tokyo’s Hibiya Chanter Square, which is officially being renamed Godzilla Square later this month. Additionally, the classic Godzilla statue is being replaced by the Big G’s newly-designed iteration from Shin Godzilla, a mega hit over in Japan.
The news comes to us courtesy of Godzilla-Movies.com, the site announcing that the 9-foot-tall Shin Godzilla statue will be erected at the spot on March 23.
What will become of the Heisi Godzilla statue, you ask? That’s being relocated to the inside of Toho Cinemas Hibiya, set to go on display on March 29.
We don’t yet have any images of the new statue, but check out the old one below.
