From Godzilla vs Mecha Godzilla 1974? Also, are there any good still pictures of it, it's always been one of my favorite Showa suits.
On another note, why were two suits used for Mecha Godzilla's disguise as Godzilla?

IIRC, it's called the Nise-Goji (nise = fake, imitation, etc.).

I've always called it "Pseudo Godzilla," personally.

I've always called it Fake Godilla, but Nise-Goji fits in better with the rest of the suit names.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this suit was seen in Godzilla vs. Megalon as well. When Godzilla leaves Monster Island, as he is seen swimming away, his head looks nothing like the suit used in the movie, and you can even almost see that evil-looking grin of the fake suit. I'm pretty sure that was fake Godzilla.

I always loved this suit. Its my 5th favourite Godzilla suit. I know it looks goofy but I love the goofy 70s-era Godzilla.
If I recall it was also used for the shot of Godzilla swimming away at the end of Terror of Mechagodzilla.
