From Wikipedia...
Guiron was from the 1969 movie commonly referred to as Gamera vs. Guiron, the fifth entry in the Gamera series. Guiron (or "Guillon" - named for "guillotine"), was a giant quadrupedal dinosaur-like monster with a head shaped like a long knife. Along the knife is a hole that shoots small magnetic shurikens.
"Plot summary: Two boys, Akio and Tom, spy in their telescope a spaceship that descends into a nearby field. With Akio's little sister in tow, they bicycle out the next day to investigate. The boys accidentally take off to a Counter-Earth, while Tomoko is left behind, unable to convince any adults (except kindly but eccentric police officer Kondo) of the boys' misadventure. On the icebound planet Terra, the boys encounter two beautiful but sinister alien women and the monster Guillon, who effortlessly dices a Space-Gyaos with its knife-blade head. Gamera eventually tracks the boys to the ice planet and battles Guillon while the boys try to avoid being served up for dinner by their hungry hosts."

Yes, the boy gets a head shave!!!
Happy Halloween to you too!
is it グイロン (guiron) or is it ギロン (giron)? Just wondering. But a beautiful toy nonetheless. ^_^ Btw, I went to "Astro Zombies" (Super7 claim it to be their main provider) in Osaka last week but I was disappointed as they had very little kaiju toys on display...
I am not sure which is correct... I have also seen it spelled "Guillon."
