Got him in a lot from the UK. He has no markings at all. He is rotocast so he's fairly light. This guy is big, I included one of those 90's conan figures just to give you the impression of his scale.

Does it say "imperial" on it?

I washed him head to toe and I couldn't find any markings on him at all which is weird. Usually there is SOMETHING to go by.

Yeah...certainly does SEEM like the Imperial version, just bigger! Wow, do you have the Imperial Godzilla for scale? I'd love to see how they stack up together. Are the legs articulated?
Could be a "large-i-fied" bootleg of the small Imperial mold, or just a nameless, dateless, extremely-similar-to-Imperial generic ape. First time I've seen this dude. Love those green nails!

His legs and arms are articulated, and his head too!

Looks like a knock off of the Imperial King Kong. Should have a Imperial stamp on the bottom of the foot if its an Imperial.

That looks like a possible recast/bootleg version of the Imperial Kong. Its not the Toho version, so far as I can tell. (I own two Bandai/Toho Kongs, and this guy looks nothing like either.)
Great looking toy, though. I'd enjoy owning it.

Imperial Godzillas are known to have bootlegs, it's no surprise that the Imp Kong would get 'legged as well.
