The largest-ever indoor Godzilla statue in Japan will be towering over a facility at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport from late December, Toho Co. and facility operators have announced.
Measuring about 40 meters long and 9 meters tall, the statue will be installed at the airport’s Terminal 3 for a year.
The design is based on the version of Godzilla featured in the eponymous 1954 film — the first in the series. The statue will be positioned over restaurants and souvenir shops, peering down at travelers and visitors in the third-floor departure lobby.
A Godzilla figure from the 2023 film “Godzilla Minus One” will also be on display in the second-floor arrivals lobby.
Toho, Japan Airport Terminal Co. and Tokyo International Air Terminal Corp. said they hoped their joint project would help create memorable travel experiences for visitors to Japan.
