The Pictorial Book of Godzilla 2 (大ゴジラ図鑑2 Dai Gojira Zukan Tsū) is a 1995 informational book which features behind the scenes images of Toho monsters aside from Godzilla, ranging from Anguirus in Godzilla Raids Again to Godzilla Junior in Godzilla vs. Destoroyah.
Information
The book was published on December 1, 1995 by Hobby Japan Co., Ltd.[1] It contains 199 pages packed with production photos (only the first 16 being in full-color and the rest in black-and-white) from every Toho tokusatsu kaiju film produced from 1955 to 1995, giving mentions to non-kaiju films such as Prophecies of Nostradamus and The War in Space, and even including a section on Pulgasari.
Examples of content within The Pictorial Book of Godzilla 2 include: the making of and design details of the kaiju suits presented in the book, assorted pieces of concept art (notably for early Showa monsters), sections for superweapons, kaijin and alien races, and columns containing bits of trivia aside from giving descriptions for many of the images contained. The book excludes the monsters included in the previous entry, those mostly being exclusively Godzilla incarnations and related monsters such as Minilla, Fake Godzilla and the Godzilla Tower all the way up to LittleGodzilla. However, with this book being released soon after Godzilla vs. Destoroyah, it includes entries for both Burning Godzilla and Godzilla Junior.
