The height of the Godzilla ranges between 50m and 122m. A destroyer-class reaper (like the one in the video) is about 160m, and a sovereign-class reaper can be over 2Km. So yeah, every reaper dwarfs the Godzilla.

I just realized how this foreshadows the charge in the final mission on earth reaper with lasers shooting at you while you charge at some sort of structure, and something that involves hammers. in the earth mission, you are charging some sort of structure as a reaper shoots at you with lasers and you're part of an assault force called, Hammer.
