It was modelled by Shinichi Wakasa and his company MONSTERS Inc. and worn by suit actor Tsutomu Kitagawa. The replica suit's smooth appearance and the lighting setup in which it was filmed is the reason some fans mistake it for the use of CGI. It even managed to fool Gareth Edwards!

While there is no direct translation for this advert, and translation websites such as Google Translate don't seem to help, Reddit user u/wutx2 on the r/vintageads subreddit offers an intriguing interpretation through the two idioms used in the ad, "Though it be small, it's a monster of a machine."

Since both of these franchises are massive though, I could be missing some other instances where Godzilla and Miku have crossed over. If I am, please inform me in the replies and I will issue an addendum to this post.

While Fortnite isn't the first time Godzilla and Miku crossed over, as illustrated in this post, it does however mark the first time the two worked together against a common enemy. It is also technically the first time she has crossed over with King Kong, as he was also present during the event.
