New Godzilla vs. Kong Figure Sends Mechagodzilla to War ✖ Mechagodzilla has a long history in the world of Toho's universe of giant monsters, having first been introduced as a creation of aliens to put an end to the king of the monster's reign. Though his origin was changed for the latest Legendary Pictures film, he remained as threatening as ever, with several weapons that made him more than a match for the giant monster he was based on. Being created using the remnants of the corpse of King Ghidorah, Apex lost control of the mechanical monstrosity, with MechaGodzilla lashing out against anything that happened to be in its path of destruction.
