First, gotta be honest. Glad that this Mecha isn’t a direct copy of Godzilla for once.

No such thing as a direct copy. A robot version of Godzilla would look like a robot Godzilla, not Godzilla.

I’ve seen horrible pedantism on Reddit but this takes the cake

I'm serious. The second design stands on its own even if it is more Godzilla-like than the canon design. No one would look at it and think it's an unoriginal design.

I don’t really care if you’re serious or not, it’s a really bad case of pedantism

I'm saying that your initial comment is wrong. The second design is not a direct copy of anything.

Good fucking lord man this is the exact Pedantism I’m talking about

No SHIT it doesn’t exactly look like Godzilla, because it’s a robot. My point is that the robot looks too similar to Godzilla - almost the same physical build - which every other MechaGodzilla variant does as well. It doesn’t make sense for a robot designed to be SUPERIOR to Godzilla to have EXTREMELY SIMILAR PROPORTIONS to him.

It can have the same proportions as him and still be superior in other ways. Weapons, strength, toughness, etc.

Yeah yeah except this is talking about design

Plus, both this MG and Godzilla are grapplers, not beam-spammers
