* {{Notzilla}}: One of the available options to play the titular Creature, and the one that appears on the cover of all editions of the game, is a giant Godzilla-style humanoid lizard. Made even more obvious when one of the available Kaiju powers is fire breath that can cause tremendous collateral damage.

Since I happen to own the game, I can at least provide context for these examples...

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever
AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: A big part of the fun of the game is actually getting to ''play'' as the 50-ft whatever, stomping police cars and smashing buildings.
*BreathWeapon - Lightning Throwing
BreathWeapon: One of the advanced options the monster player can use is "fire breath", which allows the monster to set nearby buildings on fire. Unlike simple smashing, which only affects a single building, fires started with fire breath can spread to adjacent buildings.
*HelicopterFlyswatter
HelicopterFlyswatter: Helicopters are the only units which can pass through the same square as the monster, but if they do so, they have a chance of being grabbed and destroyed.
*{{Kaiju}}
{{Kaiju}}: In addition to being generally inspired by the Kaiju genre, the monster player can choose to be represented on the board by a token with an image which bears a suspicious resemblance to Godzilla or Mothra.
