You sit at a polished desk with stacks of papers and a steaming cup of Titan Treats coffee. The walls are adorned with banners touting slogans like "Treat Yourself to a Titan!" and "Bite into Bigger Flavor!" Today’s task is an important one: selecting the official brand ambassador for Titan Treats, a food empire known for its giant, monstrous-sized candy, donuts, and pizzas. You’ve narrowed it down to two final candidates: Reptar, the iconic green dinosaur, and Godzillo, the powerhouse mini kaiju hero slash movie star. Their applications lie before you, along with letters of recommendation from Stu Pickles and Melissa Shield.

Letters of Recommendation

Letter from Stu Pickles (on behalf of Reptar):

"Dear Titan Treats Board of Directors,
I can say with absolute confidence that Reptar is a symbol of joy and excitement for countless families. Reptar brings people together in a way that few other icons can. He’s a presence that is somehow both awe-inspiring and approachable. Over the years, I’ve watched him brighten the faces of children, make crowds cheer, and even get my son, Tommy, to eat his vegetables. Imagine that power applied to donuts and pizza! Reptar’s silent charm and larger-than-life personality would make him a perfect ambassador for Titan Treats. Everyone loves Reptar!
Warm regards,
Stu Pickles"

Letter from Melissa Shield (on behalf of Godzillo):

"To the Titan Treats Selection Committee,
Godzillo isn’t just a hero, he’s a powerhouse with a heart of gold. As one of Japan’s favorite heroes, he’s built a reputation for being fierce in battle yet compassionate with fans. Godzillo’s immense popularity among teens and young adults in Japan and the U.S. makes him an ideal choice to represent Titan Treats on a global scale. I’ve seen firsthand how he captivates audiences. Imagine a mighty kaiju enjoying a  super enlarged slice of pizza! Godzillo would be the perfect representative for a brand that stands tall, strong, and ready to bring flavor to the world.
Sincerely,
Melissa Shield"

Reptar is a very, very, very easy sell for a mascot. I watched MHA in its entirety recently, Godzillo is really just a nothing character and he would do even less as a mascot.

[Venom 2009]

Oh, wow! I forgotten that I added Reptar to the site. Well, Reptar is a big icon in the Rugrats world. So, I guess Reptar would be the best choice.

[Pizza Guy]

Reptar! I actually had a Reptar toy as a kid and that thing was my prized possession.

When I looked into Godzillo there definitely wasn't a lot there, which is why I didn't do a normal fight. But as a brand ambassador, he looks like a mini-Godzilla, stars in movies, and dresses like a daredevil that has to be checking some boxes in the marketing department.
