Godzilla '84 Still 1, Front

Description

First off, this piece and the series to follow are emphatically NOT my creations, nor am I seeking any profit from 'em. I just figured (a) fellow G-fans could use some decent screenshot-ish media, and (b) said media is uncommon enough not to take a bite out of Toho's profit margin if posted here.

As such, here's the first of 24 still-card images from the 1984 film "Return of Godzilla," AKA "Godzilla 1985" in the US. Subsequent images will alternate between the film-excerpt front of each card and some behind-the-scenes black-and-white stuff on the back.

Three final caveats:

(1) Several of the stills featured Puny Human Actors(C) and Comparatively Mundane Machinery(TM); as such, I omitted 'em due to a possible lack of interest from any but the most dedicated G-fans. I'll be happy to post 'em if anyone is actually interested.

(2) Likewise, a number of the back-panel images struck me as too compact, grainy and/or human-centric to be of much interest to casual fans.

(2) Unfortunately, inasmuch as this still-card set originated in Japan, the text is obviously Japanese, which I have no aptitude whatsoever in translating. Should anyone fluent in kanji care to lend a hand, the contribution would be much appreciated.

Thanks for reading, and enjoy.
