I bought it as soon as it came out because, even at the time, a lot of MST fans were suspicious about the Godzilla release; we'd heard time and time again that the Godzilla (and Gamera) movies would be nearly impossible to get. This is one of several cases where Rhino was just sloppy in one way or another.

I do feel bad for fans trying to complete a collection now, since they have to buy both versions of the set if they want every officially released film, and then they end up with two copies of the other three movies.
