Toho Unused Special Effects Complete Collection (東宝特撮未使用フィルム大全集,   Tōhō Tokusatsu Mishiyō Firumu Taizenshū, lit. Toho Special Effects Unused Film Complete Works) is a 1986 documentary directed by Koichi Kawakita and released to VHS by Toho Video. It features deleted scenes and bloopers from the company's science fiction and war films, primarily those whose special effects were directed by Eiji Tsuburaya, as well as interviews with key staff members. The score is comprised of re-orchestrated classic Toho kaiju film music by Akira Ifukube that was released as the album Ostinato. Though bootleg versions began circulating in the U.S. in the 1990's, it did not officially become available there until 2019, when it was included as a bonus feature on The Criterion Collection's Godzilla: The Showa-Era Films, 1954–1975 Blu-ray box set.
