The Toho DVD Masterpiece Selection (東宝DVD名作セレクション Tōhō Dībuidī Meisaku Serekushon) is an ongoing line of DVD releases by Toho Video which began in 2015. Comprised of both brand new releases and re-releases of the company's older offerings, it includes the majority of Toho's kaiju and tokusatsu works. An equivalent for the Blu-ray format, the Toho Blu-ray Masterpiece Selection (東宝Blu-ray名作セレクション Tōhō Burūrei Meisaku Serekushon), also exists, but currently only includes the movies of the Godzilla series.

Trivia
- The background colors of the Godzilla DVD covers likely delineate the films' directors of special effects. The first seven films are colored red to represent Eiji Tsuburaya, Son of Godzilla and Destroy All Monsters are green for Sadamasa Arikawa, All Monsters Attack through The Return of Godzilla are blue for Teruyoshi Nakano, Godzilla vs. Biollante through Godzilla vs. Destoroyah are orange for Koichi Kawakita, Godzilla 2000: Millennium and Godzilla vs. Megaguirus are purple for Kenji Suzuki, GMK is lime for Makoto Kamiya, Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla is magenta for Yuichi Kikuchi, and Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. and Godzilla: Final Wars are gray for Eiichi Asada.
- Arikawa was in actuality the special effects director on Ebirah, though Tsuburaya received credit. Ishiro Honda served as the special effects director of All Monsters Attack, but was largely assisted by Nakano; neither are credited in the film itself.
