The box states it's from 'Gamera vs Guiron' (1969 movie) . Difficult to make out the proper shape in the bag but it looks like it's Guiron rather than Gamera.
Oh yes, that is the marvelous Guiron, with the Chromium Steel Knife-Head, which was seen in the US in "Attack of the Monsters." Those dopes in Hollywood tried to bring Guiron back in the pathetic "Pacific Rim," but nothing will ever top the original Guiron! SFZ
I was never really into the Kaiju thing. Other than Godzilla, I remember a few names but that's it and I only have one lone Godzilla toy out in The Cave. I do remember building a plastic model of the Big G when I was a kid - Aurora maybe??
