Most of ZF's monsters were badly designed and wouldn't hold up in a feature film. Even the Godzilla, Gigan and Ghidrah suits look crappier in ZF than they did on film (the show's hyper-bright lighting scheme sure didn't help), but they were a sight for sore eyes after seeing some of the 'painted garbage bag' monster designs on that show. I'm exaggerating, but not by much.
Godzilla never lived in a cave with 5 minute access to Tokyo during the Showa era, and since ZF never made a crossover appearance in the G-series (one would think Megalon was the perfect vehicle), I'm inclined to believe the ZF universe was its own self-contained beast. The crossovers were one-way only.
