Unused Godzilla and New Monster designs from canceled American Godzilla movie!

What almost was the American Godzilla of the 1990s, Stan Winston School of Arts have shared some never before seen photos from their time on the canceled American Godzilla film from 1994. Instead, what we got was Roland Emmerich's take on the King of Kaiju in 1998, which introduced a far more controversial design for Godzilla and - no additional Monsters.

Below are concepts of both Godzilla (which we have seen in various forms before) and a new Monster, named the Gryphon from the Stan Winston Studios archive:

What do you think of these Godzilla and Gryphon designs? Would you have preferred this to the 1998 Godzilla? Sound off in the comments!

I would've love to see this film be made. It definitely would have been more faithful than 1998. Although if it had been made, we may not have gotten the Millennium series or the MonsterVerse, and the 1998 film did give us Godzilla: The Series (which I'm a big fan of).

Yeah, that's the Gryphon. I really love its design and origin, and I would really like to see it be used in a future Godzilla project (although sadly it seems unlikely).

In the script there were also other creatures known as "probe bats" that severed the alien probe that creates the Gryphon which aren't shown here, but images of concept art and maquetes of them are online.

Yeah, it would've been more faithful.  But I'd doubt it'd hold it's own franchise, similar to G98.

This is what we should've gotten not that abomination of 1998.

And the show itself was actually pretty good. I recently re-watched a lot of the episodes and it holds up really well.

Technically no design "held its own franchise" except maybe MV and Earth. And even MV changed designs.
