Soaring in from the skies… it’s… the Giant Condor?
That’s right, the obscure kaiju that made an impression on kaiju fans everywhere in a brief appearance 60 years ago in Ebirah, Horror of the Deep now has a t-shirt entirely to itself. The Giant Condor, often humorously and fondly remembered as one of the more obscure characters to grace the Godzilla franchise, has seen a sort-of renaissance amongst Godzilla enthusiasts in the United States, with this t-shirt being a hot item after its announcement as a Godzilla Day Exclusive for the Godzilla Store US.
The shirt features a snapshot of that chaotic, brief battle, with Godzilla facing off against the mysterious creature, both ready for a showdown that would end up going down in Showa history. The shirt also features a tribute to the deceased Giant Condor, with the text “Appeared briefly. Died instantly. Remembered eternally.” Humorously reminding us of the great sacrifice this noble beast made, in a fight that it would never win. The shirt is also 100% cotton, giving kaiju fans a comfy yet amusingly stylish choice for their kaiju-themed apparel.
Below is our in-hand gallery and photoshoot with the shirt showcasing our own tribute to the Giant Condor. If you would like one of your own, we encourage you to pick one up from Godzilla Store US.
