I am trying to find a jade carving of Godzilla, sold in Chinese
airports as tourist souvenirs. They retailed for roughly $35 in 1994.
It's possible that the carvings are not of Godzilla, but of some
Chinese character that looks like Godzilla to an American.

I will gladly accept an answer that points me to a picture of the
piece, ideally with a supplier/seller or an explanation of where to
buy such a thing. If it's not Godzilla, but some other Chinese
character that resembles it, also a pointer that describes the
character.

The item was solid, and detailed (Godzilla-like plates on its back
distinguished it from a dinosaur), maybe around 12 inches high (though
smaller/larger also OK, just in the ball park)
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Thanks for the pointer. Unfortunately it's a T-Rex (sorta) without any
detail, doesn't really look like Godzilla. I'll try more jade sites
though, thanks.
