Iterations

    • Notes:
      • The original international version was released on VHS in the U.K. in the 1990's.
  • Sony
    • Notes:
      • When Sony released Son of Godzilla on DVD in 2004, they made a new video master for Toho.
      • Sony's new international version features a video-generated title card and ending title, which is a bit small in comparisson to the original. New credits that resemble the original international credits were added, which replace Bibari Maeda's name with the more common "Beverly Maeda" rendering.
      • This version replaces the original Toho logo with a new CGI Toho logo.
