Description
(Happy Birthday Godzilla!)Lightening Blade
SHIIGAN
HEIGHT: 50 meters
MASS: 10,000 metric tons
BIO:
Another of the Children of the Thousand-Year Dragon, SHIIGAN's power was derived from electricity, and brutality to match. The insect/reptile hybrid, according to the Orochi ruins site, met in vicious mortal combat against MANDA, the Water Dragon. The coils of the serpentine monster were an obviously easy target for the blades of her sibling, but Shiigan's lightening power was both compounded and complicated by the waters of Manda's environment.
The power of Manda's water manipulation eventually overpowered even Shiigan's nasty disposition, who was forced to give up his life energy to her sister, granting her the power of the Thunder Spark.
Interestingly, Shiigan bears a odd resemblance to another legendary kaiju, the cyborg GIGAN. Whether or not this has deeper implications or simply a result of convergent evolution (see: big fat coincidence) remains to be seen.
ABILITIES/ASPECTS:
- Thunder Blade Strike
- Lightening Bite
- Incredibly fast melee fighter
- Can charge energies into one huge lightening bolt attack
UP NEXT - Vagnosaurus

Pretty interesting design there, I do like how he has spikes instead of wings and looks like more then just an insect monster. As for his resemblance to Gigan, isn't Gigan a pure Robot in your version? So does Convergent evolution apply? Unless it Gigan is based on something else of course. It could also be that the Nebulans saw Shiigan and based Gigan off of it.

Wow, this is really good! I love the little sparks of electricity running around him, and the insane looking "grin" he's sporting is really...creepy.

Hmm..the lines and the color seem thicker than before. But, I LOVE the evil grin on its face.

I didn't notice that it resembled Gigan. The insect-reptile hybrid also brings the pokemon Scyther to mind.

So, when can we expect Vagnosaurus to be up? From the blurry images I've seen, he looks like some weird dinosaur/jellyfish/turtle thing.

This is one of the weirdest-looking kaiju I've ever seen. It makes Gojira look almost normal.

Yes, but kaijusamurai has reimagined him to look like this ^^^

Same as Barugaron, he comes from the Japan-only PS1 game, Godzilla Trading Battle.

That is kinda scary. But it's freakin' awesome! Maybe the Nebulans visited Earth during that time and used that shape for Gigan later on. Eh, it's just a stupid theory.

PaladinArtea [2008-11-04 07:09:11 +0000 UTC]
Great job. It also reminds me of Bagan, the final boss in the SNES game Super Godzilla, a kaiju created by unknown aliens who combined Godzilla's and King Ghidra's DNA. It looks similar to Shiigan only brown.
