The Top Ten
1 Manda

Even though he doesn't get much screen time in any of the movies he appears in Manda makes the most of it. Who doesn't love a cool dragon walking down the boulevard with bombs exploding next to him.

2 King Ghidorah King Ghidorah is one of Godzilla's most well known enemies. First appearing in 1964's Ghidorah, the Three Headed Monster, he has gone on to appear in more films than most other Godzilla foes.

From the first time you see Ghidorah he is just amazing! So powerful and cool looking. Both he and Manda have the serpent/ dragon head which is the coolest in the series.

3 King Caesar

When you see King Caesar explode out of the mountain and see him for the first time you are totally amazed how cool he looks.

4 Anguirus

The oldest monster behind Godzilla in the series. Probably the coolest roar out of any monster.

5 Mothra

Beautiful, tough, and amazing is how I describe Mothra.

6 Jet Jaguar

The first time I saw Jet Jaguar I wanted to be him. Tried to find a costume for Halloween but they did not sell them.

7 Gigan

The picture is the newer version of course I am ranking the Showa Era Gigan. Just oozes toughness.

8 Megalon

Even though he has appeared in only one movie Megalon is tough and cool looking. He can do so many different things with his weapons arsenal, he is amazing.

9 Rodan

One of Godzillas great allies, just a great monster.

10 Gabera

Like Megalon, Gabera only appeared in one movie, All Monsters Attack. I always thought he was a cool and unique monster. From the green skin to his roar. Completely underrated as a Monster.
