A monster robot fashioned from "space titanium" by spacemen bent on world domination (the Simeons, ape-faced creatures from the Third Planet of the Black Hole), Mechagodzilla sports an awesome arsenal of beam weapons and murderous missles, sufficient to wipe out a city. Topping its list of armamanets is the rainbow colored space beam emanating from its eyes, used with devastating effect to blast Godzilla and obliterate buildings. Hidden behind a flipdown chest plate is the lightning-like close attack beam, while revolving missles bristle where fingers ought to be. Other missle magazines are housed in the feet, knees, and throat areas, while a flamethrower spews forth from the mouth. For defense, Mechagodzilla can generate a pulsating force field by whirling its head at cyclonic speed. Jets in the feet allow the marvelous machine to take off like a rocket, permitting attack from the air as an alternative to full frontal assault.
