This video compares the two artificial and iconic monsters from the Godzilla franchise: The Mechagodzilla from 1993 and Monsterverse's.
The concept of introducing a human-built mecha to battle Godzilla actually originated with special effects director Koichi Kawakita's idea to pit Godzilla against a redesigned Mechani-Kong, which was one of his favorite kaiju. Kawakita's idea also featured Mechani-Kong injecting a team of humans inside Godzilla's body in order to fight him from within, a story element he said was inspired by the classic 1966 science fiction film Fantastic Voyage. The first story utilizing Kawakita's idea was entitled Micro Super Battle: Godzilla vs. Gigamoth, and featured Godzilla invading the United States, with the U.S. military constructing Mechani-Kong to fight him. Mechani-Kong would inject a team of humans into Godzilla's body to fight him from the inside while the mecha fought him from the outside. However, radiation leaking from Mechani-Kong was to spawn a mutant monster called Gigamoth C Type, which would enter the fray as well. While Gigamoth was ultimately reworked into the new monster Battra featured in 1992's Godzilla vs. Mothra, the Mechani-Kong concept was recycled for other story proposals.
