In her second form, Biollante's Godzilla genes take over and her body becomes an abomination of biological science. Biollante's second form has a head similar to that of a mosasaur or crocodile and a tongueless maw with a multitude of knife-like teeth, even on the interior lining. In addition, six large tusks, three on each side, protrude from the fulcrum-region of her mouth. Large numbers of vines and tendrils are a primary feature of Biollante in both forms. Some vines end in sharp, spear-like ends, while others sport small, sharp-toothed mouths. In her second form, Biollante uses her four main tendrils to lunge forward and "run," gathering speed as she does so. What appears to be meaty flesh is visible underneath the tangled mess of vines and plant tissue on Biollante's chest. The fleshy surface is yellow and red-orange and has many wrinkles and lines, resembling a brain. Biollante shares many similarities with SpaceGodzilla, suggesting that she is more likely responsible for SpaceGodzilla's creation than Mothra. These similarities include tusks on the sides of her mouth, membranes on the inside of her mouth, rows of sharp teeth inside of her mouth, a screeching roar, and the ability to break apart into energy spores after being mortally wounded. In Godzilla: Unleashed, Biollante has the ability to submerge her entire body underground and tunnel around toward opponents.

With her weight of 220,000 tons (200,000 metric tons) in her final form, Biollante is the heaviest Toho monster to appear on film, and was the tallest monster at the time. In an interview with Michael Dougherty and Ken Watanabe, the former revealed that if he could direct another Godzilla movie, he revealed he would like to include Biollante in it. [3] Biolante in her final form bears a striking resemblance to Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors as they both are monstrous, and scary looking plant monsters destroying cities. In her final form, Biollante retains all previous abilities, though she does acquire an additional one, which is the ability to spit large quantities of radioactive corrosive sap from her large mouth (the radiation is clearly visible as orange energy spores within the sap stream).

Biollante can also transform into a cloud of spores when she is severely wounded and move through the air; using this technique, she survived both her fights with Godzilla. In Biollante's rose form, her cellular division is abnormally affected by Godzilla's atomic ray, resulting negatively in heavy body damage. According to Dr. Shiragami, Biollante is completely immortal and cannot die, due to both her regenerative capacity and ability to break apart into energy spores when wounded.

She attempted to stop the Xiliens in their Earth conquest by battling King Ghidorah. Biollante was even able to absorb the space dragon's energy via a gravity beam, and transform into a plant-like King Ghidorah clone. But, even with her new enhancements, Biollante was defeated.

Biollante was perhaps the first Godzilla monster to go through a substantially-documented design process. In Shinichiro Kobayashi's original story for Godzilla vs. Biollante, Biollante was said to be the result of Dr. Shiranui (the earlier name for Genichiro Shiragami) mixing the cells of his dead daughter with those of a tropical plant. Biollante was only meant to have a single form and battle with Godzilla at the end of the movie, and was envisioned to have the face of a woman and poisonous petals that resembled butterfly wings.

Super7 Toho ULTIMATES! Wave 1 – Godzilla

So Biollante stands at a solid three inches, give or take a hair. She’s pretty solid, sculpted out of a hard vinyl or rubber. The head, tendrils and feet are softer and squishy. So if you apply just a lil force, you can make the jaws close with your fingers. Sculpt detail is pretty good here with plenty of bumps and ridges through her entire body. Even the inside of her mouth has teeth that while unpainted can be felt. Biollante (ビオランテ , Biorante) is a genetically modified plant hybrid kaiju who first appeared in the 1989 Toho Godzilla film Godzilla vs. Biollante. In her second form, the Godzilla genes took over and Biollante's body became an abomination of biological science. Biollante's second form had a head similar to that of a Mosasaur or crocodile and a maw with knife-like teeth, even on the interior lining. In addition, six large tusks, three on each side, protruded from the fulcrum-region of her mouth. Large numbers of vines and tendrils were a primary feature of Biollante. Some vines ended in sharp, spear-like ends, while others sported small, sharp-toothed mouths. Also, Biollante had four stubby, root-like legs that she uses to move, as well as what appeared to be meaty flesh underneath the tangled mess of vines and plant tissue. The fleshy surface was yellow and red-orange and had many wrinkles and lines, resembling a brain-like surface. Scaling wise, Biollante comes up a bit short. I’d say she’s the worst when it comes to scale out of all of Trendmasters smaller figures. She stands smaller than the rest, so if you were hoping to have her munch on Godzilla’s head, it won’t happen here. Articulation Kako Yodane (14 April 2014). 華麗なる円谷特撮デザインの世界 ミラーマン☆ジャンボーグA 米谷佳晃デザインワークス 1971〜1973. Kodansha. pp.42–43. ISBN 978-4-06-364953-6.

In the aftermath, Biollante's spores were observed ascending into the atmosphere, and her island was later converted into the Monster Islands. At first, Biollante was a giant rose with a set of jaws inside her bud and her tendrils, as well as long vines; merely a heavily-mutated and exponentially large, semi-sentient rose. She also had a large, fleshy sac surrounded by her overlaying vines. What this object was has never been determined, but it is likely that it is either her brain or her heart. Trendmasters released a comic book titled Monster Island Unleashed to promote its first wave of Godzilla figures in 1994. The comic is notable for being the first American Godzilla comic to feature Mothra, Rodan, King Ghidorah (as Mecha-King Ghidorah), or Mechagodzilla. The only American comic beforehand to include any other Toho kaiju beside Godzilla was Cinema Shares' 1976 promotional comic for Godzilla vs. Megalon.Within the context of Godzilla vs. Biollante, Biollante gets her name from Dr. Shiragami, who upon seeing the creature gives it the name Biollante, stating it is the name of a plant spirit from Norse mythology. In reality, there is no such figure, although numerous nature deities do exist in Norse mythology, with almost all of them being female. It's in my top 10 and is easily the best of the Heisei era. In fact, it and 84 are really the only Heisei movies worth a damn. Godzilla vs King Ghidorah isn't bad, but the four after that are a mixed bag of messes with vs Mothra and vs Spacegodzilla being some of the franchise's worst films.
