Description
The only other final penned product for the canned Godzilla the Series revamp I had planned. Crustaceous Rex is an awesome monster, and it's designed so well I pretty much didn't want to change anything. I "flipped" his abdomen spike so he could stab foes ensnared in his tentacles, but that's pretty much it.The only other difference was how his appearance would go, as well as his diet. While he still appeared in Jamaica, the giant squid were cut for logical reasons; if he's going to be showing up later on, he needs to be able to eat in other regions. So instead of just tar, he also consumes things like natural gases and even garbage.
A few other monsters were tinkered with, but I eventually canned the project. Amongst the returning monsters were the giant rats, King Cobra, and Cyber-Godzilla. A few new monsters were to appear, with only one being put into concept stage; a dragon that uses a combustible, poisonous gas and traditional fire breath to heavily damage foes.

Huh, I never realized his spike was turned about backwards. Good to hear he'd be more adaptable, wouldn't survive too long just feeding on tar.

Looks awesome, Pyatt. Flipping the spike makes a certain amount of sense-another way to attack instead of just a seemingly random spike.

I never did understand how this squid-like creature became so different from its origin. Its suppose to be a squid, but it has so many other unique traits that are not squid like. Insect-like traits mainly, such as the multiple eyes, the abdomen, etc.
but such a neat creature. The fact it was able to drive out an already super-sized species of squid on its own and being a juvenile(If I remember the series correctly) made it so neat. It was a parasite of them and that's what was so odd. It has more then enough ability to be a predator, but instead it leeched on the squids tar-like substance.
Anyway, love the picture. Was one of my favorite creatures from the Series.
