Just got back. And yes, I did see the Godzilla statue near Hibiya park. I put my album online here, complete with maps:

I created a Godzilla sub-album for all things Godzilla, including the statue from every angle.

No, didn't get out to the studios, but we did see some Godzilla sights:

Toho's Nichigeki Theater (now in the glass Yurakucho Mullion)
Image

Wako Dept Store
Image

National Diet Building
Image

Kachidoki Bridge
Image

Yurakucho Mullion
Image

Fuji TV
Image

And from my favorite movie, the Tokyo Big Sight
Image

Tokyo Metropolitan Govt Tower
Image

Uh-oh
Image

Godzilla didn't visit here, but it's still an important kaiju landmark
Image
(That wasn't Tokyo Tower toppled in Gojira'54. The tower was built in 1958)

Nice shots!

Godzilla did blast Tokyo Tower in Tokyo S.O.S.

Here's a shot of the Godzilla statue I took a couple of weeks ago:

The Daily Yomiuri took a photo of me with the statue following my interview with them. The article is to be posted December 24. It is a similar angle as this one, only I am at the bottom left.

I saw Space Battleship Yamato at Toho's Nichigeki Theater.

The plaque says:

"It's possible that another Godzilla might appear
somewhere in the world, again."

Those were the last lines from Gojira 1954.
