As cool as it would be to see a new MechaGodzilla, I feel like Jaegers are inferior in most aspects to any other kind of towering-mechanical robot-suit(?) I've come across.
I mean, they only peak at 280 feet tall, whereas the new Godzilla peaks at 350 feet. Though it might seem minor in terms of fiction and what-not, this is science-fiction we're talking about. That, added on to Godzilla's overall mass and the fact that most Jaegers are nuclear powered, you're just sending the Big G a buffet.
Deviation is not shameful. Conforming is.
