16->''"There were some serious copyright issues with that, so she is not the 50-Foot Woman. She's the 49-Foot-11-and-Three-Quarters-Inch Woman."''
17-->-- '''[[WebAnimation/{{Spill}} Carlyle]]''' describing Susan, ''WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens [[https://youtu.be/xijP_Pr7-oY?t=63 review]]''
18
19This is, in essence, IncredibleShrinkingMan turned on its head, where the [[TransformationRay ray gun]] [[MiracleGroMonster that zapped the character]] was set on "Grow" instead of "Shrink". And the protagonists have a [[StealthPun huge problem]] to deal with.
20
21For maximum disaster potential, the victim of the growth is usually a pet, wild animal, baby human or other character without a firmly developed sense of morality or sentience who might [[ObliviouslyEvil innocently]] topple the downtown skyscrapers without really meaning it. If the victim is a normal person, the growth process will inevitably [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity fry their synapses]] or they'll [[DrunkWithPower go on a power trip]] with [[AGodAmI delusions of Godhood]], requiring the hero of the story to find a way to put them back to normal just the same.
22
23This generally violates the SquareCubeLaw, but [[RuleOfCool that's okay]]. For humans, expect MagicPants to be in effect — can't have a giant ''naked'' person, after all. The MoralGuardians would freak. [[ResizedVocals Their voices may get lower as well.]]
24
25Differs from {{Shapeshifting}} in that the character generally just becomes a much bigger version of whatever they were before. Pet monkeys and lizards, however, tend to seamlessly morph into either Franchise/KingKong or Franchise/{{Godzilla}} knock-offs along the way, no matter what their original species were. (And if ''that'' happens, expect two or more {{Japanese tourist}}s to shout "[[ShoutOut Ahh]]! [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Gojira]]!" and run away.)
26
27Episodes of this kind are quite likely to include a StockParody or {{Homage}} of King Kong: The 50-foot (15-meter) whatever [[ClimbingClimax will climb a tower]], often with a DamselInDistress in hand and airplanes buzzing like flies. Imitators often omit the DownerEnding where Kong falls to his death, though. See KingKongClimb for examples.
28
29If the hero wants to fight back, he may be in for a ColossusClimb, if deploying HumongousMecha is out of the question. Counterattacking from the air is another option, but risks invoking HelicopterFlyswatter.
30
31A standard plot for animated shows, but [[SpecialEffectFailure tough to pull off seriously for live action]]. [[BMovie B-Movies]] latched on to this trope for a time. After all, why settle for the standard-size MonsterOfTheWeek when you could have a [[BiggerIsBetter giant one]]? Advances in special effects technology have kept this from becoming Discredited.
32
33Note that, in real life, no living organism of such a size can exist (the dinosaurs were the biggest land animals ever, but their actual size was nowhere near the likes of King Kong or Godzilla as we see them in the media). As an animal gets bigger and bigger, it must use more and more resources of the body (bones, muscles, etc) just to sustain itself on its feet, and will require higher quantities of food. See [[https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/why-king-kong-should-have-been-blue-whale-180962603/ here]] for details.

67* A commercial for Pepto-Bismol had various kaiju and a 15 meter Woman doing the "nausea, heartburn, indigestion" dance. Do we really want to consider the implications of giant beings with diarrhea?
68* Lee's Dungarees in their "Don't flinch." campaign had the "90-foot (27 meters) Babe" Natalia Adarvez walking through a city, stepping on a Taxi, ripping power lines, towards a high-rise (or so it seems for the normal-sized peeps) where she picks out the window of a nice young man (the size of her finger) and gives him her phone number. Written on a billboard. With a broom. He, wearing Lee's Dungarees, doesn't flinch.

87[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
88* ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'': This show could be called ''Attack Of The Fifty-Foot Whatever: The Series'', to put it simply. True to form, the typical Titan is a humanoid creature about 50 feet tall, being described in the series as 15 meters. Some can grow to be hundreds of feet tall and there are several smaller variations, though even the "tiniest" Titan will still be about 9 feet tall (3 meters). The largest one in size is the Colossal Titan, standing at 60 meters (200 feet). [[spoiler:[[SerialEscalation At least until the Founding Titan is introduced]]; it's large enough for the Colossal Titan to stand on its spine.]]
89* The first opening for ''Literature/{{Bakemonogatari}}'''s anime adaptation features Hitagi as a giant whose footsteps can take up city intersections. [[BaitAndSwitchCredits This has nothing to do with her arc.]]
90* ''Manga/BlackClover'':
91** Demons are titanic beings of [[AlmightyIdiot immense magic power but little to no intelligence beyond primitive instinct]]. One of them alone is powerful enough to raze an entire country within a week if left unchecked.
92** Dante can use his Body Magic to turn into a giant, musclebound being with enough physical strength to obliterate the ground with a punch and send the resulting countless debris flying with an arm swing.
93* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'':
94** Once [[TheBrute Yammy Llargo]] releases his Zanpakuto, Ira, [[OneWingedAngel he turns into a kaiju-sized behemoth]]. [[UnstoppableRage If he gets particularly angry]], he can grow even larger, becoming truly titanic in size.
95** Choe Neng Poww becomes a giant, humanoid whale after releasing his Zanpakuto, Calderón.
96** Gerard Valkyrie becomes a giant through the power of his Schrift, The Miracle, once he's sufficiently injured. When he's frozen and shattered to pieces by Hitsugaya, he reforms as an even larger giant, large enough to flatten an entire city.
97* ''Manga/{{Bokurano}}'' has a group of 15 kids pilot a 500 meters tall robot... against other 500 meters tall robots... in a tournament where the fates of little over 32000 universes are at stake.
98* The anime of ''Manga/CardCaptorSakura'' featured this with (what else?) the Big Card, whose most malign effect was visited upon a [[MegaNeko cat]] (it seemed perfectly content at schoolbus-size.) However, the Big Card was needed in that same episode to fight the giant dragon, which Sakura's friend was describing [[RewritingReality in the book form of the Create card]], and which was preparing to attack Toemeda. Sakura grew to giant size to fight the dragon, and, miraculously, no one noticed.
99* Though not all measure up to Fifty feet, the Awakened Beings of ''Manga/{{Claymore}}'' are all fairly massive, the smallest standing at least 18-20 feet.
100* The {{Ecchi}} comedy ''Manga/{{Colorful}}''. In one episode, there is a movie about a giant man with a camera. [[spoiler:He shrinks back to normal when he spots a {{panty shot}}.]] In a later episode, there's a [[HugeSchoolgirl 50-foot]] [[{{joshikousei}} high school girl]].
101* One of [[RubberMan 00]][[MasterOfDisguise 7's]] abilities in ''Manga/Cyborg009'', though he only used it once when he and other cyborgs were under attack of cyborg animals.
102* Most of the Akuma in ''Manga/DGrayMan'' are roughly human-sized, but when a ton of level 3s are combined, they turn into a skyscraper-sized black giant of death referred to as a level 3.5. Naturally, one of them wound up fighting General Tiedoll, who turned his [[EmpathicWeapon Innocence]] into a [[WhenTreesAttack wooden]] {{mecha}} to fight it.
103* The kraken from ''Manga/DeliciousInDungeon'' is basically a house sized squid. It's even prepared and eaten like one.
104* ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' is replete with examples of this, with several of the good guy and BigBad title creatures taking on titanic proportions at one time or another.
105** Special mention has to be made to the stars of Episode 50 of ''Anime/DigimonAdventure2020''. [[spoiler:Holydramon, Goddramon and Milleniumon are large enough that one of the latter's claws dwarfs mountains and makes [=WarGreymon=] and [=MetalGarurumon=] (themselves now at the size of your typical kaiju) look like ants, and then there's [=ZeedMilleniumon=], who makes the aforementioned Holydramon and Goddramon look ''microscopic'' in comparison.]]
106* ''Anime/DragonBallZ'':
107** Piccolo and a one time villain Namekian from one of the movies, Slug, have displayed the ability to make themselves grow to gigantic sizes. [[spoiler:Piccolo completely forgets about this power until Krillin reminds him in ''Anime/DragonBallSuperSuperHero'']].
108** Prior to those two, we had Goku, who turned into a gigantic destructive monkey known as an "Oozaru" when looking at a full moon. This is later revealed to be an inate trait for all Saiyans and, as seen with Vegeta and ''Anime/DragonBallGT''[='s=] Baby Vegeta, they can be tamed, turning them into gigantic destructive ''intellegent'' monkies.
109* ''Manga/FairyTail'': Lullaby was huge in the manga. He's noticeably even ''larger'' in the anime.
110* ''Manga/FightingFoodons'':
111** Beefsteak looks like the combination of a cow and Godzilla.
112** Also Makarov. His Titan magic allows him to change his size at will.
113* In an episode of ''Anime/FlintTheTimeDetective'', a Time Shifter causes Sara to grow to giant size.
114* In ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', when Envy transforms into his monster form against the Flame Alchemist, Roy Mustang mocks him:
115-->"I can't believe you made yourself a bigger target. You really thought ''bigger'' would be ''better''?"
116* In ''Manga/GreenWorldz'' plants have overtaken the land and oxygen levels have skyrocketed, causing bugs to grow giant as well, since insect body size depends on the amount of oxygen in the air.
117* Various ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'' series usually feature extremely large robots, that dwarf the "normal" mecha. Funny enough, those larger mecha are typically stated to be 40 meters by WordOfGod, while Gundams are 18 meters (normally), but the large mecha are actually at least 4 times bigger than the protagonist's, making it just as much a case of SciFiWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale.
118** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'', the original, introduced this with Big Zam, a huge cannon with legs.
119** ''Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam'' had Psyco Gundam, a much bigger version of Gundam, painted black.
120** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ'' had the return of the Psyco Gundam and the Psyco Gundam Mark II.
121** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn'' has a huge Zeong-like armor for Full Frontal's Mobile Suit. That armor's fist was just as big as Unicorn itself!
122** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny'' introduced the Destroy Gundams, expies of Big Zam and Psyco Gundam combined.
123** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'' had ''several''. Ali's Agrissa during the battle in the Taklamakan Desert, the Alvatore from the season 1 finale, the Trilobyte from Season 2, and a few others...
124** ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'' had a scenario that actually made sense in-series (and wouldn't be physically improbable outside the series either). Halfway through the show, the normal 1/144 sized Gunpla are facing... a 1/48 scale Zaku, which turns out to be surprisingly tough for a Zaku. All of those Gunpla appearing in the show are ''real-life toys produced and sold by Bandai'', including the 1/48 scale Zaku.
125** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans'' had the Graze Ein in the first season, which was somewhat of a downplayed example, since it's only 22.1 meters big, whereas the other mecha are around normal size. Gets played straight with the Hashmal in Season 2, however, which is more akin to the size of the aforementioned Psyco Gundam.
126* In one damnation sequence from ''Anime/HellGirl'', both Enma Ai and Kikuri are super-sized. They're mocking the victim's desire to be a "big shot".
127* In ''Manga/HimechansRibbon'', Himeko acquires the ability to increase or decrease the size of things. She's able to transform herself into a giantess, but since she is trying to keep things secret, she seldom uses the growth ability.
128* The fifth ''Literature/IsItWrongToTryToPickUpGirlsInADungeon'' novel has an aptly named Goliath as its boss. [[spoiler:It falls onto the ceiling of the [[BreatherLevel 18th floor]], and attacks the adventurers.]]
129* ''Anime/JungleDeIkou'' ends with Mii turning into a giantess to stop Ongo from destroying the world.
130* One episode of ''Manga/KimbaTheWhiteLion'' is titled [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "The Gigantic Grasshopper"]].
131* This happened to Kankichi Ryotsu in one chapter and anime episode of ''Manga/{{Kochikame}}''.
132%%* [[http://randomc.net/image/Lucky%20Star/Lucky%20Star%20-%2019%20-%20Large%2026.jpg Attack of the 50 foot]] [[Manga/LuckyStar Yutaka]]!
133%%** And [[http://forums.gts-depot.net/showthread.php?t=3989 Tsukasa]], in the PSP spinoff Net Idol Meister
134* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'':
135** ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'' also had an episode where the adorable little kitten was enlarged into [[MegaNeko an adorable giant kitten]] by the [[GottaCatchThemAll collectible]] PlotCoupon. A previous episode had a cute puppy getting enlarged as well, though that one's giant form was less cute and more [[{{Hellhound}} demonic-looking]].
136** Chapter 48 of ''Manga/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaVivid'' reveals that [[spoiler:one of Fabian's devils]] could grow to the size of a small house.
137* ''Anime/{{Macross}}'':
138** ''Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross'': The point of the HumongousMecha is that the Earth forces knew the Zentraedi aliens coming to claim the SDF-1 would fall under this trope, and built them so they could fight the invaders at their own scale.
139*** You don't really get the sense of scale until you see Breetai and his minions (none of whom are wearing their PoweredArmor) fighting against Hikaru and Max... while the latter two are still in their Valkyries.
140*** ... and Breetai's ''still'' taller than them! He's ''big'' even for a Zentraedi, though (if the average 30-feet-tall Zentraedi warrior is equivalent to a 6' human, Breetai's easily 6'7" to 7' proportionally); most other Zentradi are as big or slightly smaller than a full Battroid-form Valkyrie.
141** In ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'', the trope is gleefully subverted as the Zentraedi have become part of accepted human society... and many of them still spend most of their times as 10-meter-tall people who still do simple stuff like farming. A highlight is two humans hanging out with a Zentraedi at a mixed-size mall... and in order to be at eye-level with her, the humans are on a ''third-story balcony''.
142** That said, full-sized Zentraedi seem to be fairly rare in colony fleets outside of the Macross Frontier fleet, as the majority of "cultured" Zentraedi seem to prefer shrinking themselves to human-size. The Anime/{{Macross 7}} fleet had no full-sized Zentraedi other than Exedol, and the Zentraedi-exclusive Macross 5 fleet had none either. "Cultured" Zentraedi living at full size are apparently so rare that even Mylene Jenius, half-Zentraedi herself, had never met one and was shocked to do so.
143*** There's also Mylene's sister Emilia, who must have macronised herself only recently, since Mylene was surprised to see her at full size when they met up again.
144*** Which makes sense, since by being probably dozens of times a normal human's mass, full-sized Zentraedi would use dozens of times a normal human's resources in food, air, and space, which are rather valuable commodities in a self-contained environment like say... a ''space ship'' (let's not even get into why the Protoculture thought making their space-faring warrior race over-sized was a good idea to begin with...).
145*** Background material also indicates that full-sized Zentraedi are not permitted to set foot on Earth after the first series, though "micronized" Zentraedi are perfectly fine. Apparently Earth got fed up with Zentraedi revolts after a while and wanted an easier time of keeping dissidents under control.
146** Besides the Zentraedi, ''Macross Frontier'' also has the Vajra, who are basically BigCreepyCrawlies [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace IN SPACE!]], with the largest ones bigger than most capital ships.
147* Volume 2 of ''Manga/MagicalGirlApocalypse'' has a {{Kaiju}}-sized magical girl with an upside-down head. In its appearance, it crushes a platoon of soldiers under its foot, downs some helicopters, and ends up destroying the mall that the protagonists are hiding in.
148* In episode 10 of ''Anime/MagicalShoppingArcadeAbenobashi'', a paper doll transforms into a giant teddy bear, which rampages throughout the fairy tale land. After a failed attempt to trap it in a magical barrier, it grows so big that its head leaves the atmosphere.
149* Many ''Anime/MazingerZ'' {{Robeast}} could switch sizes (the first was Baikong 09). In an early episode, [[BigBad Dr. Hell]] built a size-changing ray and turned [[TheDragon Baron Ashura]] in a giant with it.
150* One episode of ''Anime/MidnightHorrorSchool'' had Ampoo turn Piranin into a giant so he can become a terrifying sea monster.
151* Most of the dragons in ''Manga/MissKobayashisDragonMaid'' have true forms that are a few stories tall. Lucoa on the other hand is much, ''much'' larger (as in "several times bigger than a mountain" large), with even her eyes individually dwarfing Tohru's entire body.
152* One episode of ''Anime/MonColleKnights'' is specifically titled "Attack of the 50-Foot Lovestar" (for the dub anyway), and has the normally fist-sized Lovestar grow huge after drinking some water near a farming village.
153* In one chapter of ''Manga/MonsterMusume'', Kimihito encounters a rampaging dryad who's grown to an enormous size because of experimental fertilizer waste being dumped in her forest. [[SlimeGirl Suu]] ends up falling into it and growing to a similar size, resulting in a very odd {{Kaiju}} battle.
154* Some of the ''Manga/{{Mushishi}}'' creatures-of-the-episode were quite large. The dying swamp, in particular.
155* ''Manga/MyBrideIsAMermaid'' has this happen to Nagasumi, averting MagicPants in the process.
156* ''Manga/MyOtome'' essentially qualifies for this in the late episodes, when [[spoiler:Nina Wong]] uses the Harmonium and grows into a several-hundred-foot-tall shadowy version of [[spoiler:herself]]. The physical nature of the transformation/manifestation is debatable, but ''cities'' get crushed, hinting at plenty of mass.
157* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'':
158** The very first scene of the series is of a giant Nine Tailed Demon Fox attacking the Hidden Leaf Village then being [[SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan magically sealed inside the title character.]] We are later introduced to the other 8 Bijuu demons, all of which are gigantic in their own right. [[spoiler:And ''then'' we're introduced to the Tailed Beast's progenitor, the [[EldritchAbomination 10-Tails]], which is ''at least'' three times the size of the other Tailed Beasts in its first form alone, and gets even bigger as it advances through its subsequent forms.]]
159** [[SummonMagic Summoning Jutsu]] allows you to call forth giant beasts to attack enemies on your behalf, providing you have a contract with them. The actual size varies both from species to species and creature to creature, from normal sized dogs to "Boss" Snakes, Toads and Slugs that tower over tall buildings.
160** One of the Akimichi clan's abilities is the ability to grow to an incredible height. It's firstly demonstrated by Chouji's father Chouza, who turns into a giant and stomps on enemy ninja, and then by Chouji himself in the fight against Jirobo where he becomes so huge, ''his body occupies a clearing''.
161** The purpose of Pain's Animal Path is to invoke this trope. ''Literally'': he summons giant monsters to fight for him.
162* ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'' episode 20 has Evangeline turning giant. She's not aware of anything she's doing, and changes back at the end of the day.
163* ''[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion The End of Evangelion]]'' takes this trope to the LogicalExtreme: [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt Attack Of The]] '''[[SquareCubeLaw 1200 KILOMETER]]''' [[InnocentFanserviceGirl Naked]] [[ApocalypseMaiden Girl]]!
164* Episode 4 of ''Anime/OkusamaWaMahouShoujo'' features a giant teddy bear walking through the town. It's [[SubvertedTrope soon revealed]] that it was only a model of the town in Cruje's room.
165* ''Manga/OnePiece'':
166** This is the essence of [[RubberMan Luffy's]] [[SuperMode Gear Third]]. Although he hasn't turned into a full-sized giant as of yet, he can expand parts of his body to the point of outclassing regular giants -- who themselves measure at least 60 meters.
167** In the Marineford arc, the Giant Squad on the Marines' side and Oars Jr. on the Pirates' definitely counts. Fleet Admiral Sengoku is also this when he reveals his Zoan Devil Fruit powers.
168** In the Dressrosa arc, Pica is an already naturally towering man, but thanks to his Devil Fruit that allows him to assimilate and merge with stone, he can become truly ''gigantic''.
169** Filler character Lily Enstomach is a giant, but she has eaten a Devil Fruit that allows her to shrink in size at will, so the trope is naturally invoked when she returns to her true size.
170** Kaido's Devil Fruit allows him to turn into a truly massive [[TheFourGods Azure Dragon]], one big enough to dwarf a small town.
171** [[spoiler:After Luffy awakens his Devil Fruit and gains [[OneWingedAngel Gear Fifth]], he gains small-scale RealityWarper powers, which amongst other things allow him to actually become a giant.]]
172* The final battle of ''Anime/OvermanKingGainer'' features an Overman-sized [[spoiler:Overdevil-controlled Gainer]].
173* In one episode of ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'', Stocking turns into a giant as a result of some magically fattening sweets.
174** God descends from Heaven as a pair of stockinged thighs so tall the clouds obscure everything above the garter belt, crushing the ground beneath spiked heels.
175* A couple episodes of ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'' had the cast encountering Pokémon the size of buildings.
176** Ash's Treecko and a Gulpin becoming giant due to some AppliedPhlebotinum.
177** An inexplicably gargantuan Claydol appears as a SealedEvilInACan and goes on a rampage when Team Rocket frees it.
178** A scientist's experimental treats cause a Caterpie that ingests them to turn gigantic, subsequently re-enacting a parody of ''Film/{{Mothra}}'' (complete with metamorphosing into a Butterfree). Team Rocket uses the same treats on Jesse's Dustox and James' Cacnea.
179** Another time involved an amusement park island with Pokémon-shaped automatons that were several times the natural size of the critters they emulated -- and the cast was stuck ON the island for the duration of the episode.
180** The giant tribal marked Alakazam and Gengar, and the giant similarly marked Jigglypuff Ash and Co. have to summon to sing them back into containment.
181** The episode where a Tentacruel grows to a huge size and destroys a city. Misty talks it down and convinces him and his normal-sized kind to go back into the ocean.
182** An episode set in Galar (where [[MakeMyMonsterGrow this happens frequently]]) has Ash's Pikachu unintentionally Gigantamax to combat a Gigantamax Drednaw.
183* In ''Manga/PokemonGoldenBoys'', Gold encounters a giant Sudowoodo.
184* In ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'', the forest of Ryugenzawa is home to a variety of [[MisplacedWildlife exotic animals]], such as koalas and platypuses, who have grown to titanic size (think "rabbits the size of grizzlies" and "flying squirrels the size of fighter jets") due to the magical properties of the Water of Life --itself a product of the magical moss that grows on the snout of the mountain-sized [[{{Orochi}} Yamata No Orochi]].
185* Chiri from ''Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei'' grows into a giant in one episode to fight an alien invasion in a parody of the ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' movie. There's also a Giantess {{panty shot}}, but only because it was relevant to the episode's theme.
186* Episode 30 of ''Manga/SgtFrog'' introduced the Flash Spoon, a device that could make its user grow to enormous size. In the first half of episode 57, Keroro uses it to one-up Viper the Elder when the villain grows to giant size in a last-ditch effort at beating the Keroro Platoon. In the second half of the episode, a trip to the Nishizawa Group's private island (while waiting for the effects of the Flash Spoon on Keroro to wear off) results in a cuttlefish, a crab, and a turtle being turned into giant monsters by the spoon, while the rest of the cast also grows in an effort to stop them (except Dororo, who doesn't get his hands on the Flash Spoon until the batteries have run out).
187** The same thing happened in the dub, only it was called [=SpoonWow=] (made in Germany, you know the Germans always make good stuff).
188* Mana Eimiya, the titular ''Manga/SuperDreadnoughtGirl4946'', stands at 49M and 46CM and fights alien monsters of comparable size.
189** Then at the end, she enters a SuperMode where she grows to the size of 4946M.
190* Let's not forget ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''. It went from the 50 feet tall variety in the beginning all the way to the size of a galaxy! What can you do when your opponent is also that size? Obviously you throw galaxies at them. Super Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann is stated to be roughly 3,5% of the size of the observable universe. Its only weapon? A huge energy-drill that's 10 times bigger than the thing itself. The Anti-Spiral counters by growing to 3,5% the size of the observable universe and wielding a 10 times as big drill... Yes, the final battle has over 77% of the observable universe occupied by mecha and their weapons!
191* ''UG♥Ultimate Girls'': Three High School girls grow to 30 meter stature, then fight the monster of the week. Lather, rinse, repeat. However, subverting the MagicPants trope is the whole point of the show.
192* In ''Literature/UnlimitedFafnir'', the dragons that attacked humanity are huge, standing several hundred feet/meters tall.
193* Early on in ''Manga/ViolinistOfHameln'', the [[TheDragon Demon King Drum]] assumes his true form -- as a colossal, multiheaded dragon -- and attacks the royal city of Sforzendo. At one point during the battle, [[{{Jerkass}} Hamel]] proposes magically enlarging Flute so she engages Drum in a {{Kaiju}} battle, but is shot down immediately when they realize the equally-colossal upskirt view she'd give the whole city.
194* One of Keima's captured targets in ''Manga/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows'' grew enormous due to her desire to [[spoiler:become "bigger" than a dojo leader.]]
195* ''Manga/{{Yaiba}}'' has the Orb of the Great Buddha, which can make him grow to gigantic size. At least once he grew so big [[ExaggeratedTrope that his head was out of Earth's Atmosphere]]. After few seconds [[RuleOfFunny he started choking and was forced to shrink back to a more manageable size]].
196* ''Anime/YuGiOhCapsuleMonsters'' has the Five-Headed Dragon, Seven-Armed Fiend and Reshef the Dark Being, all of whom are villains or controlled by villains.

201* In the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer: Season Eight'' comics:
202** Dawn is turned into a giant, presumably as an effect of losing her virginity to a "thricewise" [[spoiler:but actually due to cheating on the thricewise with his roommate, so he cursed her in retribution]].
203** Played straight when Dawn goes on a rampage stomping vampires in Tokyo and [[InstantAwesomeJustAddMecha battling a giant robot version of herself]] while Andrew gives her tactical advice from a helicopter, [[LampshadeHanging declaring]] that this was the moment he was ''born'' for.
204* ''ComicBook/{{Cardboard}}'' has the giant Cardboard Marcus in the cardboard monsters' world.

215*** The ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'' has Colossal Boy. (In the latest reboot of the series, he insists he should be called "Micro Lad", as he's naturally 50 feet tall and has ''shrinking'' powers.)

220*** "ComicBook/ThePhantomSuperboy": A size-enlarging ray accidentally hits a small lizard, turning it into a sauropod-sized monster which starts furiously rampaging through the countryside.
221** There's Atom Smasher (formerly of the [[ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica JSA]]), the ComicBook/WonderWoman villainess Giganta, and Apache Chief from ''WesternAnimation/{{Superfriends}}'', later reimagined as Longshadow on ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague''. Atom Smasher is somewhat unique in that his powers are more limited than most examples -- his maximum height is well below 50 feet, probably closer to 30.
222** DC also has Elasti-Girl of the ComicBook/DoomPatrol who has straight growth (and shrinking) as her power as opposed to the RubberMan powers her name would normally suggest.
223** An issue of ''ComicBook/AmbushBug'' features a giant koala.
224** An issue of ''ComicBook/{{Lobo}}'' has a woman spurned by the Main Man for being [[ACupAngst too flat]] jumping onto a vat of breast growing cream, causing her to grow to gigantic proportions and track him down, then giving him a taste of MarshmallowHell.
225** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': The extra-dimensional world-destroying SufficientlyAdvancedAlien Adjudicator in ''ComicBook/JudgmentInInfinity'' is taller than the Washington Monument.

229** In ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'', the Anti-Monitor grows to giant size in the latter half of the story and stays that way while the heroes (and Darkseid) whittle him down to nothing more than a flaming head coming out of a star.
230* The ''ComicBook/DoctorWhoTitan'' Twelfth Doctor story "The Swords of Kali" climaxes with the Attack of the Giant Alien-Possessed Clara Oswald! Once she's freed and returned to normal size, she admits it ''was'' cool to be a giantess for a while, and that she'd have an easier time keeping her students in line if she were always that big.
231* In ''ComicBook/EightBillionGenies'', one common wish is to grow gigantic, with everyone from children to adults wishing to tower over buildings. One page shows that a man who wished to grow so tall he could be seen from space... and promptly begins to suffocate, since his head is in the stratosphere.
232* AC Comics, in general, has nearly half of its female characters able to turn into giantesses. This is explicitly Fanservice; their first giantess character was so popular that they ran with it. In particular Tara Freemont and Garganta of ''ComicBook/{{Femforce}}'' have this as their superpower.
233* In the issue #33 of ''ComicBook/{{Futurama}}'', Amy accidentally spritzes herself with a less than refreshing enlarging spray that turns her gradually into a giantess who starts destroying the city.
234* Titan of ''ComicBook/JusticeMachine''.
235* In ''ComicBook/LockeAndKey'', Dodge uses the [[CastingAShadow Shadow Crown]] to turn himself into a [[BuffySpeak colossal...wolf...thing]] and attack Kinsey and Bode. Prompting [[GentleGiant Tyler]] to use the Giant Key, growing himself to the size of a house. One hell of a fistfight ensues.
236* ''Franchise/MarvelUniverse'':
237** There's Giant-Man/Yellowjacket, Giant-Girl/Wasp (ComicBook/MarvelAdventures has her specifically as the former, the latter gains the ability much later), ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} (who could do it as Goliath), Black Goliath (who died in ''ComicBook/{{Civil War|2006}}''), Atlas of the ComicBook/{{Thunderbolts}}, and [[Characters/AntManHeroes Stature]] of the ComicBook/YoungAvengers, amongst others.
238** ''ComicBook/MsMarvel'': The third Ms. Marvel, [[Characters/MarvelComicsKamalaKhan Kamala Khan]], is a polymorph who's capable of this by issue #3 of ''ComicBook/MsMarvel2014''.
239** [[http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/spider-girl/90-1.jpg One issue]] of ''ComicBook/SpiderGirl'', in a clear parody of the whole thing, has a cover with the heroine, grown to ridiculous size, with her parents in the foreground throwing out: "She may be a 50-foot monster, but '''she's still our daughter!'''" In the actual issue, this turned out to be part of a LotusEaterMachine a villain stuffed her into.
240** ComicBook/CaptainAmerica foe the [[http://marvel.wikia.com/Lyle_Dekker_(Earth-616) Ameridroid]], a 20-foot tall KillerRobot that looks exactly like Captain America, possessed by the mind of a [[StupidJetpackHitler Nazi scientist]].
241** Used hilariously in an issue of ''ComicBook/SpiderManLovesMaryJane'', in Mary Jane's dream.
242* ''ComicBook/MyLittlePonyLegendsOfMagic'': In [[Recap/MyLittlePonyLegendsOfMagicIssue5 the fifth issue]], Somnambula's town is attacked by a giant snake bigger than Prince Hisan's palace. As Somnambula discovers after being SwallowedWhole and talking to a wizard who had been likewise gobbled down by the giant reptile before her, the snake used to be a normal-sized pest living in the wizard's house, but it ate a magic stone that caused it to constantly grow as it ate. It shrinks back to a normal size after Somnambula and the serpent's other victims escape from its gut and take the stone with them.
243* The ''Film/NationalLampoon'' did a comic-book parody of the genre called "Attack of the Sizeable Beasts", where a well-intentioned scientist's growth-hormone test animals get loose. Not monstrously big, just...bigger than normal. A really large raccoon falls out of a tree and dents a car, a remarkably large bird flies off with a baby's sweater, that sort of thing. They don't wreak havoc so much as a low level of annoyance.
244* Recurring villain Zoster of ''ComicBook/PaperinikNewAdventures'' in his last appearance stole [[PhysicalGod Xadhoom]]'s powers and use them to become as big as the '''SUN'''. How many foot are those? [[spoiler:Fortunately it was all a plan of Xadhoom that she created before dying. In fact it was the last appearance of Zoster because the experiment killed him.]]
245* A ray gun operated through an altered blueprint makes Bubbles and Talking Dog grow giant size in ''ComicBook/ThePowerpuffGirls'' story "Big Bubbles' Blues" (issue #61, DC run). Earlier on in "Blowing Bubbles" (issue #9), the sugar in Bubbles' gum and the Chemical X in her bloodstream cause her to grow as well and giving her the adhesive properties of bubble gum.
246* The first ''[[ComicBook/TheSimpsons Simpsons Comics]]'' book involved Homer being on the receiving end of [[MiracleGroMonster one of Mr. Burns' experimental growth rays]]. He ended up rampaging through Springfield until a dose of an experimental formula returned him to normal.
247* In ''ComicBook/TheSimpsonsFuturamaCrossoverCrisis'', [[spoiler:the giant Homer from the very first issue of the ''Simpsons'' comic ends up being brought back during the climax of the second miniseries]].
248* Gargamel in ''ComicBook/TheSmurfs'' comic book story "The Smurfnapper" tries to pull this on the Smurfs near the end when he drinks a formula that is supposed to turn him into a giant, but because the Smurfs had switched the potions in the bottles, the formula Gargamel ended up drinking instead shrank him until he was no more than Smurf-size.
249* In ''ComicBook/SoulsearchersAndCompany'' #4, Kelly's attempt to remove Janocz's curse accidentally transforms her baby sister into a 50-foot monster with the personality of a toddler that goes on a rampage through Mystic Grove.
250* In ''ComicBook/TurmaDaMonicaEGarfieldOLapisMagico'', Captain Fray summons a towering monster made entirely out of lasagna to wreak havoc across both Lemon Tree Street and Muncie, Indiana.
251* Dr. Manhattan from ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'' can boost his size to become bigger. ''Much'' bigger. Actually semi-justified in Manhattan's case; he rebuilt a body for himself after the accident, so the fact that he made it human-sized is largely nostalgia/convenience.
252* Played tragically in Issue 4 of the ''Weird Science'' comic anthology. A scientist helps a short man get taller with an experimental procedure on his hormone glands. Unfortunately, his body doesn't respond to the treatment to stop it, and he keeps growing until he becomes a giant. Becoming incapable of getting any work and getting negative press from all the food it takes to feed him he's ultimately hounded by the military until he's bombed to death trying to escape in the ocean.
253* ''ComicBook/WilqSuperbohater'': Happens in Opole rather regularly. Most cases are caused by Doctor Wyspa who, being an avid wargamer, loves humongous killer robots; Franchise/{{Godzilla}} also happened to visit the city at least once.
254* ''ComicBook/{{Zombo}}'': After Obmoz gains "the power of a million Zombos" thanks to Zombo's MadScientist creator, he becomes a gigantic zombie who proceeds to rampage around the city killing anything in sight.
255[[/folder]]
256
257[[folder:Comic Strips]]
258* A recurring theme in ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'':
259** One strip has Calvin imagining he drinks a magic elixir and grows to over 300 feet. He proceeds to rampage through an imaginary town. His mom is not amused when Calvin asks for replacements for the toy cars that were lost in the rampage.
260** He also built several castles in his sandbox and said they were downtown Tokyo. Then he stomped across them with a growl and said he was Franchise/{{Godzilla}}.
261** One winter day, he built about fifty tiny, foot-tall snowmen... at the base of a hill... and then went up the hill with his toboggan.
262--->'''Calvin:''' For the townsfolk below, the day began like any other day...
263** And, of course, the many strips involving a rampaging carnosaur qualify.
264** In one of Calvin's Imagine Spots, he becomes "the size of a bug ''to'' a bug" and a giant bug starts trying to step on him. The trope is then inverted when a giant frog saves his life by catching and eating the bug.
265* A number of ''ComicStrip/TheFarSide'' strips feature giant monsters, including one skyscraper-sized mailman and a group of dogs rallying to save the city.
266* ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'':
267** [[https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/2018/06/24 One of the announced movies on TV]] is "Attack of the 50-Foot Calzone".
268** [[https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/2023/11/05 Garfield is watching a movie]] where a 50 foot teenager heads for a city. Colonel Exposition plans to distract it with an 8 foot smartphone but the Colonel's subordinates end up getting distracted themselves.
269-->'''Colonel Exposition:''' '''Don't make me shut off the wi-fi!'''
270-->'''Garfield:''' That's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
271[[/folder]]
272
273[[folder:Fan Works]]
274* the [[WebAnimation/HelpMeDoctorHazama Help Me! Dr.Hazama]] fanfic known as ''Disaster Piece Theatre'' has [[spoiler:Professor Kokenoe grow to gigantic sizes after her rage consumes her. She]] is brought down after Ragna shrinks [[spoiler:her]] with an antidote. It was, indeed, a strange day.
275* One ''Anime/DigimonTamers'' fanfic, poking fun at all the references other fanfics make to Digimon games and anime, took this, RevengeOfTheSequel, and ColonCancer [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]] with the game-within-a-show-within-a-fic Digimon Explorers: Heroes Of The Space Time Continuum, Part Sixteen: The Brave New Digital World: The Attack of The Seventy Foot Kunemon From Beyond The Stars. Some members of Platform/FanFictionDotNet are trying to turn this into MemeticMutation, but it's not catching on since no one can remember the name. Some other members are thinking about writing DE:HOTSTC:TBNDW:TAOFTSFKFBTS because this trope can (and does) get played for RuleOfFunny a lot in the Digimon fandom.
276%%* ''Fanfic/AttackOfThe100FootMegGriffin''. ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
277* In ''Fanfic/WithStringsAttached'', the four are at one point shrunk to six inches high. George transforms himself to normal height (unfortunately, his clothing doesn't, no MagicPants for him), which makes him ''seem'' like he's grown to about 400 feet high in relation to the others. Whether he can really grow that tall remains to be seen.
278* In ''Fanfic/TheKeysStandAlone: The Soft World'', the first person the four encounter is the Magic Taxman. When they laugh off his demands for a quarter of their magic, he suddenly turns into a giant purple monster and picks up John to eat him. After John gets away from the thing by [[MakingASplash turning into water]], George [[VoluntaryShapeshifting turns into]] [[OurGiantsAreBigger a stone giant]] and jumps on it.
279* In ''Fanfic/FantasyOfUtterRidiculousness,'' a group of fairies are transformed into giants by some wind-borne magic powder. It doesn't increase their threat level all that much, however; they still get thrashed just as easily by the story's protagonists as they would by Reimu or Marisa.
280* ''Fanfic/MarioAndSonicHeroesUnite'': Eggman's [[DoomsdayDevice Doomsday Machine]] is described by the narration as being "over 50 feet in height." The heroes were left utterly speechless by it.
281* [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/67352/fluttersized Fluttersized]] is all about [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Fluttershy]] becoming huge after a misfired spell by Twilight. There's even an AlternateContinuity where she gets "Discorded" into a mean persona and starts rampaging through Canterlot, Godzilla-style. She even fights a giant Rainbow Dash!
282* The ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' SlashFic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6748504/1/Attack-of-the-50-Ft-Half-Klingon Attack of the 50-Ft Half-Klingon]]'' has an oversized B'Elanna Torres appearing in the [[Film/TheAdventuresOfCaptainProton Captain Proton]] holodeck program to wreck revenge on a philandering Tom Paris. The end of the story has Tom returning to seek his revenge as Film/TheAmazingColossalMan.
283* In the Blog/ReadingRainbowverse, Bonbon makes a giant rock candy golem to fight Pinkie.
284* Examples from Fanfic/{{the Calvinverse}}:
285** Taken [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]] in ''Fanfic/CalvinAndHobbesIILostAtSea'' -- the sea monster is said to dwarf the ''Empire State Building!''
286** Chapter 8 of ''Fanfic/ThePezDispenserAndTheReignOfTerror'' has a giant robot attack the town.
287* The story ''Rainbow Dash: The Big Battle'' from the [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic MLP:FiM]] fanfic collection ''Fanfic/TheMonsterMash'' features both a giant salamander and a giant Rainbow Dash.
288* [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9886932/1/Attack-of-the-50-Bit-Nicelander Attack of the 50-Bit Nicelander]]is what happens you combine [[WesternAnimation/WreckitRalph Nicelander Gene]] with malfunctioning power-ups from ''Sugar Rush''. Things are funny up until the point everyone learns that the game can not handle Gene's added bit-space and might malfunction because of it. With many non-Fix-it-Felix Jr. characters blaming him for the inevitable crash, Gene actually goes on a rampage in Niceland after suffering a breakdown and nearly takes out Felix and Ralph in the process.
289* ''Fanfic/ItsADangerousBusinessGoingOutYourDoor'': One of these poses the final threat that Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity face in their quest -- [[spoiler:a World Snake]]. While exact measurements are never given, one fan did the math based on the in-universe estimates, and calculated that this creature is roughly the size of ''Guam''.
290* In ''Fanfic/TealovesSteamyAdventure'', Tealove's train trip ends abruptly when a giant turtle attacks it. [[RandomEventsPlot Like many things in this fic]], the giant turtle gets no explanation whatsoever.
291* In ''Fanfic/TheLegendOfTotalDramaIsland'', a giant lamprey attacks Leshawna, and Chris subsequently refers to the incident as "the [[CapitalLettersAreMagic Attack of the Fifty-Foot Lamprey]]". [[note]]It was really ''only'' about 10 feet long, as Cody points out, but a subsequent comment by Chef suggests that fifty-footers do exist.[[/note]]
292* ''Roleplay/DemigodPower'':
293** The Colchian Dragon is depicted as a large, legless serpent with a head the size o an eighteen-wheeler. Its habitat was Crater Lake, one of the deepest lakes in the United States, and we never saw it's entire body.
294** Cetus definitely qualifies, being even larger.
295* [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9357026/1/WaterBender-s-Giant-Adventure One story]] of ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' has Katara being jealous of Aang's new growth spurt and takes a potion to get her to his height. But she ends up taking too much, causing her to grow 40 feet tall and being mistaken for a monster. Near the end of the story, Aang himself takes the potion and grows to her height to calm her down.
296* ''Fanfic/{{Pokedex}}'' features giant [[CuteKitten Skitty]] whose fathers are [[HotSkittyOnWailordAction Wailord]] that destroy cities [[ObliviouslyEvil without realizing what they're doing.]]
297* Shows up ''Fanfic/PoniesAndDragons'' every so often:
298** The "March of the Giants" game played by the Mane Six. Their characters even have a rampage through an evil pony baron's castle, literally crushing any opposition from the tiny Mooks with some lucky dice rolls. Applejack's character even (accidentally) kills the baron by [[AssKicksYou slipping on some ice and sitting on him,]] prompting her to quip this gem:
299---> ''[[BondOneLiner "Well, at least that's one bad guy who'll never be a pain in the rear again!"]]''
300** The Cutie Mark Crusaders (and some friends) get in on the action with a game of "King of Manehatten", where they play various Kaiju battling to conquer the city.[[note]] A ShoutOut to the real board game ''King Of Tokyo''[[/note]]
301** Later, we get an instance ''outside'' of a game with Queen Supia: a titanic Neighponese Changeling Queen resembling a Japanese hornet. She delivers a ''terrifying'' TheReasonYouSuckSpeech that leaves the normally arrogant Chrysalis a trembling wreck.
302** Then there was the time where there was a fight for Spike's love between a greed-grown Ember, Mina, and Rarity (Who had been turned into a dragon.)
303* In ''Fanfic/PlanetaryPines'' by Jackurai, (based on the show WesternAnimation/GravityFalls) features Mabel and Dipper growing and growing by use a crystal. By the time the crystal runs out of batteries, the planet-sized Mabel and Dipper are seen standing on top of the Earth.
304* In ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/9074998 The Killer Dame]]'', a ParodyFic of the ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' episode "The Killing Game", the Hirogen are driven off Voyager by a giant mutant leola root. When Neelix decides to start carving it up for food, the crew wonder if they should invite the Hirogen back again.
305%%* A [[Franchise/{{Digimon}} Greymon]] appears in the first episode of ''Fanfic/AnimeWorldChaos''.
306* ''Fanfic/HellsisterTrilogy'''s second arc has a battle between two mountain-sized giants: red horned devil [[ComicBook/TeenTitans Trigon]] and the humanoid embodiment of God's Wrath known as ComicBook/TheSpectre.
307* ''Fanfic/TheVampireOfSteel'' has M'Nagaleh, an EldritchAbomination whose gelatinous body spreads all over the Sears Tower (which is one of the tallest buildings in the world).
308* ''Fanfic/PowerRangersTakeFlight'': In addition to the standard monsters, a few demons show up, and in the finale Mainframe constructs a Warzord, the Gigazord and later comes back giant-sized himself.
309* ''Fanfic/TheNightmareHouse'':
310** Subverted in [[WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse Lori Loud's]] nightmare. It appears as though Lucy is growing but really Lori is shrinking.
311** Played straight in Leni's nightmare, where some spiders grow after drinking "Super Spider Growy Stuff".
312* ''Fanfic/TheSecretReturnOfAlexMack'' sees "Terawatt" fight a 200-foot (and still growing) tarantula, and later a 90-foot woman affected by an unknown mutagen. Being able to fly is quite helpful in both fights. Makes sense as it's a crossover with (among other things) lots of B-movies.
313* In ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' fanfiction ''Fanfic/HereThereBeMonsters'', Doctor Sivana douses Red Crusher with a growth serum which turns him into a 50-foot giant, and then he sends the mace-wielding human soldier out to rampage through North America.
314* ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainBoilingPoint'' features a Dire version of a Mandragora in Chapter 6 which is big enough to swallow [[spoiler:Skara]] whole. And, much like its normal counterpart, has a SmallRoleBigImpact deal, since [[spoiler:them nearly eating Skara caused her to blurt out how Amity broke Boscha during a rant to Willow.]]
315* ''Fanfic/BecomingATrueInvader'': [[BigBad The Employer's]] genetically engineered [[spoiler:moose]] SuperSoldiers can grow to massive size by devouring each other. One on Vort grows to the size of a skyscraper, and on Irk one grows more than three times that size.
316* ''Fanfic/OSMUFanfictionFriction'':
317** When visiting [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Metropolis]], the Mobile Unit comes across a giant turtle monster.
318** In Chapter 8, Omar, Opal and Oswald come across a large black rabbit that occupies the woods of Hy-Brasil. It doesn't pose much of a threat to them, however, only imitating the sound of bus brakes before hopping back into the woods.

321[[folder:Films — Animation]]
322* ''WesternAnimation/ABugsLife'': The finch, from the insects' perspective. Its snorts and squawks even sound a bit like Godzilla.
323* Willie the Giant in the "Mickey and the Beanstalk" scene of ''WesternAnimation/FunAndFancyFree''.
324* In ''WesternAnimation/JimmyNeutronBoyGenius'', Jimmy and Goddard both grow to the size of planets to defeat King Goobot.
325* Played for laughs in ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGONinjagoMovie'', in which the mighty Meowthra is depicted as one of these... from the perspective of the main characters, who are all LEGO minifigures living in a world built out of LEGO. In actuality, Meowthra is a perfectly normal house-cat.
326* Ursula grows to giant size after she steals Triton's trident in ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989''.
327* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Minions}}'', [[spoiler:Kevin is turned into a giant by one of Herb's inventions, and uses his newfound size to save the day]].
328* ''WesternAnimation/MonstersUniversity'': The Librarian is actually a giant 50-foot tentacled monster and if you make too much noise, she will throw you out. Literally.
329* ''WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens'':
330** The leading woman is turned into a 50-foot (well, 49-foot, 11 and 1/2-inch) woman by being doused with [[ImportedAlienPhlebotinum Quantonium]]. Naturally...
331** Insectosaurus, a 350-foot grub [[{{Kaiju}} from Japan (where else?)]].
332* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerbTheMovieCandaceAgainstTheUniverse'': During the climax of the film, [[spoiler:Mama, the mind controlling plant, grows to a massive size due to the large amounts of carbon dioxide on the planet before coming to life, becoming the FinalBoss of the movie.]]
333* A ShoutOut in ''WesternAnimation/{{Planet 51}}'' as there's a manual about how to handle yourself when a giant woman attacks with a picture similar to the [[Film/AttackOfThe50FootWoman poster above]] on its cover.
334* ''Franchise/{{Shrek}}'':
335** In ''WesternAnimation/Shrek2'', the main characters bake a giant gingerbread man named Mongo to lay siege to the castle.
336** In ''WesternAnimation/PussInBoots2011'', the Mother of All Gooses (well, one Golden Goose) rampages through a Spanish town.
337* ''WesternAnimation/SinbadLegendOfTheSevenSeas'' has [[BigBad Eris, Goddess of Chaos]]. She's a little different in that she [[{{Sizeshifter}} intentionally switches between being normal size and 50-foot size with no problem]]. It seems to mostly be for the sake of intimidation and just because she can, as she favors [[BatmanGambit manipulating people]] and sending the occasional minion over stomping on random things herself.
338* ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesMutantMayhem'': Near the end of the movie, [[spoiler:Superfly's mutagenic DoomsdayDevice backfiring turns him into "Superduperfly", a gigantic [[BodyOfBodies amalagam of mutated animals]] that goes on a rampage in New York City.]]
339* ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'': At the climax of the movie, [[spoiler:a squabble between Mei and her mother Ming causes the latter to lose both her temper and control of her sealed panda spirit. She turns into a building-sized red panda, big enough and [[UnstoppableRage angry enough]] to cause serious property damage to the Toronto [=SkyDome=]]].

341
342[[folder:Films — Live-Action]]
343* ''Film/TheABCsOfDeath'': In the "W" segment, the city is attacked by a giant walrus that fires laser beams from its eyes.
344* ''Film/{{Alligator}}'' featured a pet baby alligator flushed down a sewer where it grows to massive dimensions eating test animals illegally dumped by a chemical company. Well-done comic horror, and written by John Sayles, yet.
345* ''Arachnid'' was about a bunch of people on a tropical island getting attacked by a giant spider from outer space and all its mutant babies. [[ArtisticLicenseBiology It spawned giant centipedes, giant ticks, another spider, and at the very end, what looked like a grasshopper.]]
346* [[TropeNamer The trope gets its name]] from ''Film/AttackOfThe50FootWoman'', a 1958 B-Movie about a wealthy socialite who has a close encounter with a giant alien, grows to the titular height, and has her revenge on her philandering husband. Known for its [[SpecialEffectFailure not-so-special effects]] and famous poster, it has become a [[SoBadItsGood cult classic]]. Remade as a MadeForTVMovie for [=HBO=] starring Creator/DarylHannah.
347** Interestingly, the famous poster used as the page image actually depicts the woman as around 200 feet tall. Perhaps she just wasn't big enough for the poster artist?
348** ''Attack of the 60-foot Centerfold''. And, 17 years later...
349** ''Attack of the 50-foot Cheerleader''. Both featuring the producing talents (uncredited in the first) of the legendary Creator/RogerCorman, with all that that implies.
350* In the Greek movie ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Attack_of_the_Giant_Moussaka The Attack of the Giant Moussaka]]'', Athens is attacked by a Moussaka accidentally rendered gigantic by a ray from an alien spaceship.
351* While most of the tomatoes in ''Film/AttackOfTheKillerTomatoes'' were smaller than people, they were very large for tomatoes, though one human-stomper-sized tomato did appear at the climax.
352--> '''Scientist examining giant tomato:''' "Gentlemen, it's worse than we thought. This, God help us, is a ''cherry tomato''."
353* ''Film/{{The Blob|1958}}'': One of the key features of the Blob is that every person it consumes adds to its own biomass. When it is discovered it's about the size of a grown man's fist, but by the climax it's eaten enough people to become building-sized. Potentially, it could envelop the whole planet.
354* Seen in ''Film/{{Cloverfield}}'', which featured a monster that can only be described as [[spoiler:a 400-foot whatever. Seriously, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:CloverfieldMonster.jpeg look]] at the thing!]].
355
356* In ''Film/DudeWheresMyCar'' the alien AmazonBrigade morphs together into one "Super Hot Giant Alien" that goes after the main characters.
357-->'''Young boy:''' ''(looking up as SHGA walks above him)'' I wanna go on that ride Daddy!\
358'''Young boy's father:''' ''(looking up with a grin)'' Me too son, me too.
359** [[TooDumbToLive Just don't ask her if she spits or swallows.]] [[LiteralManeater She will]] [[EatenAlive devour you.]]
360* ''Film/EvilAlienConquerors'': You must acknowledge CROKER!!! or he will eat your head! It then gets played with when he gets shrunk down to human size as a result of being teleported to Earth, but doesn't acknowledge it and still acts as if he's gigantic.
361* The little-remembered Japanese monster movie from the makers of ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'', ''Film/FrankensteinConquersTheWorld'', featured a child who emerges from the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, [[ItMakesSenseInContext grown from the irradiated heart of Frankenstein's monster]], and turns into a giant wild-man who fights a giant lizard-beast. Whew.
362** The Japanese version climaxes in a fight with a [[GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere Giant Octopus From Nowhere]].
363*** That was actually an ending filmed for the American version, but it wasn't used. Both versions end with Franken-boy and Baragon falling into the earth.
364* ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'', the skyscraper-sized dinosaur is this. At 350 feet, a total length of 550 feet 2 inches long, and 90,000 tons, [[Film/Godzilla2014 the 2014 version]] is the biggest and heaviest Godzilla of all time. Until he was one-upped by ''Film/ShinGodzilla'' who is 118.5 meters tall, a full 10 meters taller than his Legendary counterpart and much meaner, uglier, and in a sense more pitiable.
365* ''Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}}'':
366** An entertaining example comes from the climax of ''Film/Ghostbusters1984'', when BigBad Gozer makes the Busters choose a form for the monster it will summon to destroy New York City. While the other Ghostbusters try to empty their minds, Ray tries to think of the most harmless thing he can imagine: the mascot for Stay-Puft Marshmallows. Which results in a giant, grinning, sailor-hat wearing humanoid monster made of marshmallows stomping through Manhattan.
367** They turn it right around in ''Film/GhostbustersII'', when the Ghostbusters themselves '''' [[ThePowerOfRock using Jackie Wilson's "Higher and Higher"]] to [[ItMakesSenseInContext animate]] ''the Art/StatueOfLiberty'', and use it to break into the art museum to stop Vigo the Carpathian from coming back to life.
368* Giant monsters were the stock in trade of director Creator/BertIGordon, better known as Mr. B.I.G. He directed many of the 1950s radioactive monster movies, including ''Film/TheAmazingColossalMan'', ''Film/EarthVsTheSpider'', and ''Film/BeginningOfTheEnd'' (about giant grasshoppers). In the 1970s he did two more films in this vein, ''Empire of the Ants'' and ''Film/TheFoodOfTheGods'' very loosely based on works by Creator/HGWells.
369** ''The Amazing Colossal Man'' (mentioned above) might just as well be called ''Attack of the 60-Foot Man'', and it came out in 1957, the year before the trope-namer.
370* In ''Film/Hellboy2019'', London is attacked by a giant skinless demon with blade-like limbs during the finale. There's also a trio of bog-standard (though heavily armed) giants terrorizing the English countryside that Hellboy is called upon to deal with.
371* In ''Film/HoneyIBlewUpTheKid'', Wayne Szalinski's 2-year-old son Adam gets hit with a growth ray. The more electrical appliances that the little guy gets exposed to, the bigger he gets. Near the end of the movie, Adam goes to Las Vegas and gets even bigger, and at one point, two Japanese tourists briefly appear:
372-->'''Female Japanese tourist:''' Gojira!
373-->'''Male Japanese tourist:''' No!... Big baby!
374* ''Film/TheJungleBook2016'' has King Louie. Instead of being a orangutan he's an ''gigantopithecus blacki'', which basically amounts to being a giant orangutan.
375* The ''Indominus rex'' is stated to be 50 feet long in ''Film/JurassicWorld''. What makes it an example of this trope is that she's [[MixAndMatchCritters part Tyrannosaurus rex and part Velociraptor]], and she's bigger than '''both'''.
376* The 25-foot tall ape known as Franchise/KingKong is one of the most iconic examples in fiction, though his height varies across interpretations (largely depending on whether or not he'll be pitted against Godzilla).
377* In the original ending of ''Film/LittleShopOfHorrors'', Audrey II turns into a giant monstrous plant and takes over the world.
378* ''Film/MegaSharkVsGiantOctopus'', dear god. Z grade disaster flick where a Mega Shark and a Giant Octopus get unfrozen by GlobalWarming, with scenes of the Octopus sinking an offshore oil refinery, the Mega Shark biting a section out of the Golden Gate Bridge, and best of all, the Mega Shark jumping god knows how far into the air to bite a 747 in half.
379* In one scene from ''Film/MisfitHeights'', a female tenant is seen running in terror, when a nearby door opens up. A massive hand grabs her, pulling her towards the door, and the massive face that's behind it.
380* A heroic example turns up in the climax of ''Film/TheMuppetMovie''. Doc Hopper has just ordered his hired goons to kill Kermit the Frog and company, and as they prepare to do so a rumbling is heard...a previous scene had set up that Dr. Bunsen Honeydew had created "Insta-Grow Pills" that have "sadly, temporary" effects. It turns out that Animal has taken some of them, and when he bursts out of one of the buildings and roars, the villains flee and the good guys cheer.
381* ''Film/NightOfTheLepus'' features '''Giant [[AttackOfTheKillerWhatever Killer]] [[KillerRabbit Bunny Rabbits]]'''. It is [[SoBadItsGood not intended]] as a comedy. It is, however, inspired by the Australian satire ''The Year of the Angry Rabbit'' by Russell Braddon. In that novel though the (ordinary-sized) rabbits are infected with a highly-toxic (to humans) strain of myxomatosis.
382* In ''Film/PacificRim'', after Kaiju emerge from the Pacific hellbent on destroying humanity, giant robots are built to combat them.
383* ''Film/PokemonDetectivePikachu'' features Tim and company coming across a Torterra garden in the laboratory houses, thinking that this was really the Torterra garden. When they get outside, however, they realize that the land they're standing on is the real deal: a herd of Torterra the size of mountains, made this way because of being experimented on.
384* ''Film/QTheWingedSerpent''. Giant snake-bird thing that may be an ancient Aztec god terrorizes New York City.
385* In ''Film/{{Shorts}}'', Stacey is holding the wishing rock when she wishes her boyfriend would grow up. Guess what happens.
386* In the classic '50s monster movie ''Film/{{Them}}'', the US Army learns what's worse than a single giant [[NuclearMutant radioactive ant]]: A ''[[AntAssault hive of them]]''. This movie came out in 1954, ''before'' giant monsters were commonly used in movies. The first half of this movie is played like a ''detective story'', then you get a GenreShift.
387* At the climax of ''Film/ThisIsTheEnd'', Jay and Seth come face to face with Satan himself -- and he's the size of a skyscraper, made of hardened magma, has multiple eel head sticking out of his back, and is ''anatomically correct''.
388* In ''Film/TheTrollHunter'', one of the titular trolls is at ''least'' 50 feet tall, big enough to make a land rover-type vehicle look like a toy.
389* The classic sci-fi film ''Film/VillageOfTheGiants'', from the aforementioned Creator/BertIGordon, features a gang of delinquent teenagers becoming giants. They then take over the small town ... and dance a lot. (Interestingly, does not feature MagicPants for the growing characters.)
390* ''Film/XMenApocalypse'': The eponymous villain turns into a giant [[spoiler:during his BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind with Charles Xavier to represent the difference in their mental power]].
391[[/folder]]
392
393[[folder:Literature]]
394* ''Literature/AliceInWonderland'', wherein it is Portal cakes, tonics, and [[MushroomSamba pieces of mushroom]] that cause Alice's vast changes in size -- though these changes are irregular: when Alice first expands in the White Rabbit's house, she appears to be as normally proportioned as ever, but when she eats part of the Caterpillar's mushroom, her neck is described as having grown serpentine and winding compared to the rest of her.
395* In the apocryphal work ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assumption_of_Moses The Ascension of Moses]]'', the angels Af, which means "Anger", and Hemah, which means "Wrath", stood 500 parsangs in height and forged out of black and red chains and made to enforce His will. The angel Sammael, "Venom of God", stood so tall that it would take ''500 years'' to cover the same distance by walking. Sammael is described as begin covered from head to toe in glaring eyes and his job is to "[take] the soul away from man". The trio aren't exactly "nice" or "good" but they have a job to and they do it well.
396* ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'':
397** When the movies in ''Literature/{{Moving Pictures|Discworld}}'' break the barrier between reality and [[EldritchLocation the Dungeon Dimensions]], a giant copy of the lead actress, Ginger, steps out from the screen. She soon grabs the Librarian (an Orangutan) and climbs to the top of The Tower of Art, thus simultaneously parodying ''Franchise/KingKong'' and ''Film/AttackOfThe50FootWoman''.
398** At the end of ''Literature/UnseenAcademicals'', reports arrive of a seventy-foot monster chicken rampaging through Pseudopolis.
399* An interesting inversion of the "army battles giant monster" is the Creator/StephenKing short story "Battleground", where a hitman finds himself battling toy soldiers that have come to life. This is specially brought across in the short film adaptation, where we often see things from the POV of the toys.
400* The ''Literature/DragonsOfRequiem'' series has immense creatures that make even the [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Vir Requis]] look like ants. ''Dragonlore'' has a burly, enormous monster called a Starlit Demon, while ''Requiem for Dragons'' has the aptly-named Behemoth, a six-legged beast that can crush a Vir Requis beneath its feet.
401* In the Creator/{{TSR}} ''Literature/EndlessQuest'' book ''Revenge of the Rainbow Dragons'', if you chose to drink this unknown potion that said it'd make you "strong," then you got an ending where the main character turned into a giant.
402* In ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents'' storybook ''A Mighty Big Wish'', Timmy wishes to be a giant so he can stand up to the school bully, but it proves to be more trouble than it is worth.
403* The FilmNoir MonsterMash ''Literature/FiftyFeetOfTrouble'' features both a GiantWoman and her abusive and philandering boyfriend, a KillerGorilla. And, of course, a climactic BehemothBattle.
404* ''Literature/TheFoodOfTheGodsAndHowItCameToEarth'', by Creator/HGWells, is about a substance called [[AppliedPhlebotinum Herakleophorbia IV]] that causes whatever consumes it to continue growing throughout its life cycle. Soon giant insects, animals, and plants abound, causing no end of trouble for the remaining normal-sized population. The novella ends [[spoiler:on the eve of a war between the "Children of the Food" and the "Pygmies."]]
405* The second ''Literature/FrannyKStein'' book ''Attack of the 50-Ft. Cupid'', as one might guess from the title, had Franny fight a gigantic winged cherub.
406* ''Literature/{{Funnelweb}}'' by Richard Ryan has giant mutant funnelweb spiders rampaging across Australia.
407* In "Literature/GenreSavvy", Edgar and Charlotte are joking about what animals in the Mojave area could become BMovie monsters. Edgar suggests a giant rattlesnake while Charlotte favors [[AttackOfTheKillerWhatever killer roadrunners]].
408* ''Literature/{{Goosebumps}}'':
409** The Monster Blood series.. except the [[InNameOnly fourth one]].
410** The Deep Trouble series has island-dwelling creatures exposed to the chemical D-13, which causes them to grow to gargantuan size.
411** The Blob That Ate Everyone definitely falls into this category as well. Averted in [[Series/Goosebumps1995 the TV adaptation]], since it's much smaller.
412* Happens in the first chapter of ''Literature/GulliversTravels''. To the Lilliputians, the protagonist ''is'' the fifty-foot whatever.
413* ''Literature/KaijuRisingAgeOfMonsters'' is mostly full of original (and illustrated) monsters. However, there are a few cases where simple giant versions of existing animals are mentioned.
414* Giants from ''Literature/ThePrismPentad'' are quite huge. The same goes from the BigBad's current form, [[OurDragonsAreDifferent the Dragon]]. [[spoiler:The GreaterScopeVillain Rajaat push this even further and turn into a colossus made of thunder and clouds.]]
415* On page 73 of the Canadian grade 9 French textbook ''Sans Frontieres'' we see a movie poster for ''Zagora''. The monster is just a Horned Lizard with wings badly photoshopped onto in.
416* An early Creator/DavidSedaris essay talks about trying to write erotica for a Giantess fetish magazine. He harbors no such fetish himself, he simply needs any job he can get. He ponders the more mundane aspects of being a giant that tends to get glossed over in such works. (How would they find enough food to eat? Wouldn't it be lonely? Wouldn't a bowel movement evacuate a city?)
417* In ''Literature/{{Shadowkeep}}'' we have [[spoiler:the Demon King Dal'Brad, described as being taller and heavier than a medium-sized medieval city]].
418* ''[[https://www.amazon.com/Tiny-Hamster-Giant-Monster-Jensen/dp/1481451103 Tiny Hamster is a Giant Monster]]'', in which a mad scientist's goo and lightning combine to create a massive monster hamster that starts eating a city.
419* ''Literature/TheWasteLands'': [[BearsAreBadNews It's a bear. A giant cyborg bear.]]
420[[/folder]]
421
422[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
423* ''Series/TheAmazingExtraordinaryFriends'': In "Attack of the Atomic Bombshell", a nuclear genetic accident results in Dr. Dominique Brioche HulkingOut into the 50-foot tall Atomic Bombshell when she gets angry.
424* ''Series/AshVsEvilDead'': In the closing moments of the penultimate episode, the [[GreaterScopeVillain Dark Ones]] summon Kandar the Destroyer, a demon roughly the size of Godzilla, who goes on a rampage in Elk Grove and shrugs off everything the military throws at it (and in fact, grows stronger from the aggression). [[spoiler:Ash manages to [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu kill it]] thanks to a borrowed tank.]]
425* ''Series/TheBushTuckerMan'' mentions a story told in Northern Territory, Australia about a mosquito that was so big it landed at Darwin airport and was filled with 100 gallons of fuel before anyone realised it wasn't a mosquito. The host Les Hiddins is skeptical. "I've never seen a mosquito that big. Ninety gallons, but not a hundred."
426* Even ''Series/DoctorWho'' hasn't been able to resist this trope:
427** Classic ''Who'' had "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS12E1Robot Robot]]" where TheBrigadier's attempt to use an experimental disintegration gun on the eponymous robot results in it growing to gigantic size.
428** The climax of "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E14TheNextDoctor The Next Doctor]]" involves the Doctor taking on a giant steampunk Cyberman in Victorian London. The Doctor of course is in a hot air balloon.
429** In "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E5TheAngelsTakeManhattan The Angels Take Manhattan]]," the Art/StatueOfLiberty turns out to be an alien statue called a Weeping Angel and naturally, it is gigantic. Oddly, since the Angels use stealth as their greatest strength, it isn't as threatening compared to the other Angels and is just background. It's also portrayed a lot smaller than the real thing.
430--->'''Rory:''' I always wanted to see the Statue of Liberty. I guess she got impatient.
431* ''Series/{{The Electric Company|1971}}'': [[TemptingFate Do not bother]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext this tiny person.]] Or he will send his [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin big]] brother after you!
432* In the ''Series/GenieInTheHouse'' episode, “Pony Tale”, Louise wishes to be bigger and Adil grants her wishes and… well, you know.
433* ''Series/GoodEats'' manages to invoke this trope in "Fry Hard III: Fry, Tempura, Fry!". Alton Brown introduces the topic of the episode using a kaiju-style prop monster, made to look massive using [[HitlerCam clever camera angles and prop placement.]]
434--> ''''TEMPURA!!!''''
435* In ''Series/TheGoodies'' episode "Kitten Kong" AppliedPhlebotinum transforms Twinkle the kitten into a monster that destroys London.
436* ''Series/HeyYouWhatIf'': "You Could Turn Into A Giant?" shows that being a giant might seem like a fairy tale, but if you somehow became a giant in reality it would be anything but. You'd have slow reactions and be so heavy that you couldn't stand up. In fact, you'd have to live in a bath.
437* In the Honey I Shrunk The Kids TV Series, Grandpa Murdock accidentally swallowed his whole family when they shrunk. The Honey I Shrunk The Kids franchise has many examples of giant and tiny things, living and not.
438* In "The Twenty-Foot Root" from ''Series/JohnnyAndTheSprites'', Root ends up making himself grow to 20-feet tall after being upset about being the littlest Sprite. Johnny teaches him that "You're the right size naturally / You're who you're supposed to be..."
439* ''Franchise/KamenRider'':
440** [[Series/KamenRiderKiva Kamen Rider Arc]] is the largest Kamen Rider to date at ''3.2m'' tall, without use of CGI!
441** ''Film/KamenRiderJ'' is a heroic version of this trope, able to grow to building-size in order to fight [[BigBad Fog Mother]]
442*** Doras gains this ability after merging with Fog Mother in the [[Film/KamenRiderZO ZO]]/[[Film/KamenRiderJ J]] {{Crossover}} movie.
443** Parodied in Series/KamenRiderDecade. When [[Series/KamenRiderDenO Momotaros]] appears via [[PainfulTransformation Final Form Ride]], the camera took an angle that made it ''look'' like Momotaros had become giant. Decade quickly shattered that perception.
444*** Played straight in Decade's first movie, ''All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker'', with King Dark, [[Film/KamenRiderJ J]], and Jumbo [[SuperMode Complete Decade]].
445* The 1970s series ''Series/LandOfTheGiants'' dealt with a bunch of people from earth whose airship somehow crossed over to another world where the people, animals and things from that world are all [[http://shrinking.freehostia.com/Pic/LOTGCatTroubleA.mp4 12 times normal size]].(One example: a dial telephone on a desk is about 4 feet tall.)
446* The crew of ''Series/{{Lexx}}'' fought enormous alien replicas of human women in two episodes.
447* ''Series/MassiveMonsterMayhem'' is a game show where one of the 3 pre-teen contestants grows massive size to combat one of Master Mayhem's Monsters, via finding power pods and activate the Megalaser to defeat the monster. Master Mayhem can teleport his monsters to Earth, Mega-Sized, by pressing the green button.
448* In ''Series/MonsterWarriors'', Klaus Von Steinhauer specialised in giant monster movies, and now that he has access to the Monster maker, these make up the majority of the beasts he unleashes on Capital City. Aside from the BigCreepyCrawlies (listed under that trope) other giant creatures he created include: lobsters ("The Giant Lobster Invasion"); a giant MuckMonster ("Revenge of the Mud Maniac"); a sea cucumber ( "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea Cucumber"); frogs ("Ribbit" and "Ribbit 2: Froggy's Revenge"); a jellyfish ("Beast from Below"); [[BatOutOfHell vampire bats]] (Megabatua"); [[HumongousMecha a giant robot]] ("Astrosaurus vs. Gigantobeast"); [[RodentsOfUnusualSize a rat]] ("Ratblaster"); penguins ("Penguins"); and gnomes ("Gnome for the Holidays").
449* In the "Killer Cars" sketch on ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus'', the cars are eventually gotten rid of "by the miracle of atomic mutation" -- that is, they're chased away by a giant cat walking on its hindlegs.
450* ''Series/TheMrPotatoHeadShow'': In one episode, [[MadScientist Dr. Fruitcake]] grows to enormous proportions after eating radioactive sludge. In another episode, Dr. Fruitcake ends up in a parallel universe where he's chased by a giant, carnivorous Mr. Potato Head.
451* A common type of movie featured in ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000''. Besides the Creator/BertIGordon films above, there was ''Film/TheGiantGilaMonster'', ''Film/TheBlackScorpion'', ''Film/TheCrawlingEye'', and many, many more. In the episode featuring ''Film/EarthVsTheSpider'', Crow decides to write [[ShowWithinAShow his own giant monster movie]], ''[[FoodEatsYou Earth vs. Soup]]''.
452* ''Series/TheNewAvengers'': The threat in "Gnaws" is a sewer rat mutated to monstrous size by an undiluted experimental growth formula spilled down the drain.
453* ''Series/OddSquad'':
454** At the end of "Happily Ever Odd", Donnie, serving as his brother's best man at his wedding, is revealed to have eaten five of Oona's lab carrots, and as a result, he has grown tall enough to where he can't even stand up properly and has to crane his head forward in order to fit.
455** One of the superpowers Orson has is the ability to grow into a giant, although he doesn't age up and still remains a baby. "Saving Agent Orson" shows this power in action when Oprah recounts a story to Xavier and Xena in order to convince them not to fire Orson. When everyone gives up on trying to save Odd Squad from two rampaging Hydraclops, he refuses to do so and reveals that he is a {{Sizeshifter}}. It's such a sudden turn of events that it manages to leave both Oona and Oprah -- who had also given up and were about to abandon Precinct 13579 -- in a wordless shock as he towers over them. With this power, he managed to defeat both Hydraclops and save the town (and the precinct) from destruction.
456** Blobs, a species of odd creature, are usually small when they are infants, and can be both red and blue. However, as "Running on Empty" shows, they can grow to be enormous, about half the size of Big Ben.
457* ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' / ''Franchise/SuperSentai'':
458** The climactic scene in almost every episode ever made. The villain uses some form of AppliedPhlebotinum to [[MakeMyMonsterGrow make the monster grow]] which usually necessitates the use of a HumongousMecha in order to take the monster down once and for all.
459** The final episode of ''Series/PowerRangersZeo'' had ''the Rangers'' grow as well as the villains.
460** In ''Series/UchuuSentaiKyuranger'', Koguma Sky Blue, whose powers are based on the Ursa Minor constellation (and is also JustAKid) recieves a powerup based on Ursa Major that makes him do this. Though it does ''not'' mean that he's the same size as the HumongousMecha, heck no. That mecha easily breaks through the '''atmosphere.'''
461* ''Series/SirArthurConanDoylesTheLostWorld'' not only featured dinosaurs but also giant sized versions of normal creatures (such as bees) for no adequately explained reason.
462* Parodied on ''Series/{{Taskmaster}}''. In the first episode of Series 10, the contestants are given the task of making the largest thing they can find appear to vanish without using any kind of editing trickery (i.e. without cutting from a shot of the object present to a shot where the object as been removed). Johnny Vegas decides to interpret this through a combination of this trope and political commentary on Jeremy Corbyn's decisive defeat in the 2019 British general election, by staging a "400-foot" taxidermied mutant socialist chicken, unleashed by Corbyn upon his political enemies, attacking a paper version of Westminster.
463* ''Series/ThreeTwoOneContact'' subverts this trope with a very convincing explanation of why a giant insect ala ''Film/{{Them}}'' is [[SquareCubeLaw physically impossible]].
464* The ''Franchise/UltraSeries'' made its enormous success through bringing the giant monster battles of films like ''Godzilla'' to the small screen. In nearly every episode, humans transform into enormous alien heroes to battle {{kaiju}} or alien invaders who have turned themselves gigantic. In fact, a fair fraction of {{Toku}} series involve something small growing to meet the height of something already quite large. [[BehemothBattle Then they fight.]]
465[[/folder]]
466
467[[folder:Music]]
468* One of Creator/NeilCicierega's early instrumentals ([[IAmTheBand before he adopted the stage name]] Music/LemonDemon) is entitled "Attack of the 50 Foot Zebras".
469* The Tubes has a song titled "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman", a tribute of the movie of the same name.
470* "Attack of the 60 Foot Lesbian Octopus" by Does it Offend You, Yeah?
471* When a king tries to take her for his queen and take her away from her [[TrulySingleParent father and creator]], the title RobotGirl of the Music/{{Voltaire}} song "The Mechanical Girl" proceeds to grow to seven times her size before putting her flamethrowers and rocket launchers to work in destroying his kingdom.
472* Music/{{Space}}'s fifth album, ''Attack Of The Mutant 50-Foot Kebab''.

474* The Music/WeirdAlYankovic song Attack of the Radioactive Hamsters from a Planet Near Mars is about this, with the titular hamsters growing to gigantic proportions.
475* The video for Music/{{Gorillaz}}'s "19/2000" features a 300-foot elk.
476** Russel, the band's drummer, has also grown to a tremendous size in Phase 3.
477* Music/NinjaSexParty's ''Rhinoceratops Vs Superpuma.''
478* The Music/{{Blondie|Band}} song "The Attack Of The Giant Ants" is a [[LyricalDissonance surprisingly upbeat]] tune about, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin giant ants]] coming from space and destroying all of humanity.

481[[folder:Music Videos]]
482* [[FanService For some reason]] giant, beautiful women guest starring in music videos is really popular. However for the musicians in these videos the encounters with these giant ladies usually end unpleasantly.
483** Averted in Go West's video, "Call Me", where she doesn't eat them, but ''literally'' gives the two singing leads the brush off!
484* Music/BubbleButt features "Buttzilla," a GiantWoman who can fly, SummonBackupDancers, and produce prehensile bicycle pumps from her mouth that she uses to inflate women's butts. [[spoiler:She also uses the hose to grab a backup dancer and eat her alive.]]
485* In The Cars video, '"You Might Think"', lead singer Rick O'Casek imitates ''Franchise/KingKong'' in the middle of it, grabbing the girl he's after.
486** And speaking of the titular giant ape, in near-end of Sheena Easton's video, "Long Distance Love Affair", you can pretty much guess who shows up to rescue her from Dracula, the Wolf-Man, Frankenstein, and the Crawling Hand.
487* The music video for "Music/{{Miserable}}" by {{Music/Lit}} has the band playing on a giant woman to entertain her.
488* The video for Music/QuietRiot's "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" ends with a giant version of Kevin Dubrow emerging from a movie screen and wreaking havoc.
489* In the Czech band Lucie's music video for "Panic" features a gigantic woman in a red dress. For most of the video the lead singer is standing in her hand serenading her. At the end of the video the lead singer slips a ring on the giantess' finger. Unfortunately for him the giant woman then [[LiteralManeater decides he looks tasty and eats him alive.]]
490* The music video for "Love Machine" by [[Music/HelloProject Morning Musume]] does this to Mari Yaguchi, who happened to be the shortest member of the group at the time. The video for "Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai" also had this with Risa Niigaki fighting a Godzilla expy, apparently with ThePowerOfLove.
491* Ayumi Hamasaki's video ''Sexy Little Things'' include a gigantic woman bursting through a wall, her head almost as tall as the wall itself.
492* The music video for Music/{{The Rolling Stones|Band}}' "Love Is Strong" features giant versions of the band playing around.
493* The video for the Music/BeastieBoys song "Intergalactic" features a giant robot (piloted by three scientists played by the group members) battling a giant sea creature in Tokyo in a parody of kaiju films.
494* "Giving You Up" by Music/KylieMinogue has a giant Kylie walking the streets and flirting in a club with a somewhat dorky dude, though she looks only around twelve feet tall.
495* Music/{{Savlonic}}'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qY2MOe8j2M "Tiny Japanese Girl"]] has the singer in a Franchise/{{Godzilla}} costume, rampaging across a city.
496* Shows up in a couple of Music/TheyMightBeGiants videos:
497** "With the Dark" features the singers battling a GiantSquid at one point.
498** In "Icky", the titular icky guy grows to giant size and goes on a ''Franchise/KingKong''-like rampage.
499* For the video of her cover of "Doin' Time" by Music/{{Sublime}}, Music/LanaDelRey plays a giant woman in a drive-in movie who steps out of the screen to get revenge on a cheating boyfriend.
500* In the video for Music/FrenchMontana’s “Writing On The Wall”, him, Music/CardiB and Music/PostMalone appear as colossal giants.
501* In the video for “187”, Music/{{Giggs}} attacks London as a giant.

503
504[[folder:Pinballs]]
505* The "Secret Weapon" mode of ''Pinball/RevengeFromMars'' has a HumongousMecha version of UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln fighting a Big-O Martian.
506* A giant {{Kaiju}} attacks San Francisco in ''Pinball/RedAndTedsRoadShow''.

514* The opening ceremony for the 2012 London Olympics featured the attack of a 50-foot-tall Lord Voldemort, who was then chased off by an army of Mary Poppins.
515[[/folder]]
516
517[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
518* ''TabletopGame/ChangelingTheLost'': One of the Kiths available to Ogre characters gives you this as its special power. Depending on how powerful you are and how big you are already, you grow to anything from the size of a gorilla to bigger than an SUV. Coincidentally, this Kith is called the Gargantuan.
519* The 3rd Edition of ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' has a supplement called the TabletopGame/EpicLevelHandbook. Aside from monsters that are tremendously powerful, a disproportionate number of the monsters are also tremendously ''big'', such as the [[HumongousMecha Flesh, Stone, and Iron Colossi]] (super-sized versions of the more common flesh, stone, and iron golems) and the devastation vermin (''really'' big bugs). In Monster Manual II, there is also a template to take a tiny or smaller creature and make it bigger than a house.
520** Hence ... The Titanic Toad!
521** In the older ''TabletopGame/{{Spelljammer}}'' setting, there were Giant Space Hamsters -- roughly the size of bears -- bred from regular hamsters by Krynnish Tinker Gnomes. And then they bred some of them back to regular hamster size, creating Miniature Giant Space Hamsters, because Tinker Gnomes are '''''weird'''''. Famously, Boo of ''Franchise/BaldursGate'' may or may not actually be a Miniature Giant Space Hamster.
522*** And then we get into the '''''really''''' out there variations, like the Sabertooth Giant Space Hamster or the Flying Carnivorous Giant Space Hamster.
523*** And the Firebreathing Phase Doppleganger Giant Space Hamster.
524** The Classic D&D rules and its Known World setting have a long history with this trope, from the corpse-formed colossus in ''X2: TabletopGame/CastleAmber'' to creatures such as the earthquake beetle. And that's not even counting the Immortals boxed set, which introduced critters like the draeden, one of which has long been mistaken for a ''layer of the Abyss''.
525* ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'' has some of its behemoths, and any Lunar with Emperor Ox Expansion. One character, [[MeaningfulName Leviathan]], has spent the past two millennia as an orca roughly the size of a small island.
526** Many of the [[OneWingedAngel Shintai]] charms, native to the Green Sun Princes, turns its user into a 50-feet version of their patrons, themselves are ''hundreds of feet'' [[EldritchAbomination scary things]]. For example, you can turn into massive humanoid sandstorm, massive tentacular sea monster, massive green radioactive star... And if you go [[FaustianRebellion Devil-Tiger route]], you can have Attack of the 50 Feet ''You''.
527* ''Gammarauders'' has the bioborgs, giant cyborg creatures that can be fitted with various weapons. There are also conventional forces (in the form of aircraft, tanks, and infantry), which are collectively referred to by players (and the official manual) as ''popcorn''. They ''can'' make a difference in a battle between bioborgs ... but not much of one.
528* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'' has [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=129568 Giant Growth]], one of the most commonly reprinted cards of the game.
529** Spoofed in the (deliberately silly and not tournament-legal) ''Unglued'' expansion set with the [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=9780 B.F.M. (Big Furry Monster)]], a creature so big it doesn't even fit onto a single ''card''.
530** The world shard of Naya, the home of Godsire, from ''Shards of Alara'' is home to enormous creatures known as "gargantuans", which are worshiped by the local elves and humans. It has a "big creatures matter" mechanic, there was even one card that would [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=180620 win you the game if you had a 20-power creature after you untapped at the beginning of your turn]], [[MakeMyMonsterGrow as well as speeding your creatures on a path to such a size]]. The Tarkirian clan known as the Temur Frontier has a similar effect, although it's tuned down to just 4 power instead of 5 and doesn't seem to consist largely of adding keywords to giant monsters.
531** Even more with the release of ''Rise of the Eldrazi'', which feature [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=194908 some]] [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=220553 of]] [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=198171 the]] [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=194911 largest]] [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=193632 creatures]] [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=193452 EVER]] printed in the history of the game.
532** [[PlayerArchetypes The "Timmy" demographic]] in ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'' is defined as caring first and foremost about massive creatures that can slam the opponent (or, in a broader sense, any spell with a huge, sweeping effect), and ''Magic'' sure has no shortage. The classic "biggest and baddest" is [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=108920 Leviathan]]; other notables include the devastating [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=43711 Dragon Tyrant]], the unspeakably large [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=135250 Denizen of the Deep]], and the majestic [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=175105 Godsire]]. The single biggest, baddest, most ''monstrous'' monster in the whole game, though? The dread goddess [[http://magiccards.info/cs/en/145.html Marit Lage]], who is so powerful she can't even be summoned by normal means.
533* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' seems to have a fondness for using "battle tank" as a standard size for wildlife, and Tyranids revel in this trope with their heavier creatures, especially the Bio-Titans.
534* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'': Giant monsters are not uncommon in certain armies, and several resemble supersized versions of common animals.
535** {{Giant Spider}}s are common sights in the forests of the Empire and goblin warbands. Most grow to around the size of a horse, but the Arachnarok Spider of the deepest forests can comfortably outsize a house and makes for a devastating war animal in greenskin horde.
536** The skaven of Clan Moulder specialize in breeding gigantic, ferocious monsters to sell to other clans as war monsters. One of their crowning achievements, the Brood Horror, is a huge, hairless rat larger than a tank.
537** ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasyRoleplay'': Extreme gigantism is one of the most common mutations caused by Chaos on normal animals; while most cases aren't quite extreme enough for this trope (giant rats and spiders, for instance, are "only" the size of a wolf), others, like fen worms (common marsh snakes turned into 20- to 30-foot long monsters), certainly are.
538* ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' has a variety of monsters that range in appearance and size, and as you can imagine some of them are outright gigantic
539** From the ''Anime/YuGiOh anime'' come the depictions of the Egyptian Gods Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra. By extension, Horahkty is fairly massive too, and Exodia (based on Osiris) is massive as well. Exodia Necross, Exxod Master of the Guard, Exodia Incarnate, and Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord likely rival Exodia in imposing size.
540** The Wicked Gods Dreadroot, Avatar, and Eraser are direct opposition to the Egyptian Gods, so they're about the same imposing size. Since Avatar takes the form of the strongest monster on the field; it's only this is mimicking another example of this trope. This is also true for the Sacred Beasts Uria, Raviel, and Hamon, and their fused form, Armityle.
541** The Earthbound Immortals were the largest monsters in the franchise bar the Great Leviathan, matching skyscrapers in size. They're mainly massive animals based on the Nazca Lines.
542** Thor and Loki are pretty large, but not to much bigger than the average example of this trope. Odin, on the other hand, is so big he towers over the horizon behind the city.
543** Supreme King Z-ARC from ''ARC-V'' is around the size of the Earthbound Immortals -- and his truly bafflingly insane wingspan and tail length add to this.
544** The Kaiju archetype uses exactly what it sounds like, {{Kaiju}} sized monsters based entirely on Franchise/{{Godzilla}} characters, and as any idea of this would be, most of the monsters range from giant robots to massive fire lizards to three-headed lightning shooting monsters.
545** The Alien archetype has Cosmic Horror Gangi'el and Cosmic Fortress Gol'gar, monsters clearly based on [[Creator/HPLoveCraft Lovecraftian]] design and depicted as large collections of tentacles and claws. Exactly how large they are isn't certain, but one of them ''is'' called a ''Fortress''. The similar Worm archetype has Worm Zero, which is basically the size of a city.
546** The absolute king of this trope in Yu-Gi-Oh! is Star Eater. The name says it all.

548
549[[folder:Theatre]]
550* The cover of the original cast recording of ''Irma La Douce'' depicts a gigantic Irma towering over Paris.
551* [[http://youtu.be/FmDezJDsHS4 Royal De Luxe]], a French street performance group known for rather enormous puppets.
552[[/folder]]
553
554[[folder:Theme Parks]]
555* When Chessington World of Adventures (near London UK) first opened, one attraction was a dark ride called "The Fifth Dimension", on which the riders were "shrunk" and travelled through a series of scenes of giant domestic items. Needless to say, the riders got "restored" just before the ride ended. (This ride has since been rethemed into "Forbidden Tomb".)
556* A musical version of ''Film/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon'' at Ride/UniversalStudios Hollywood features an enormous puppet of the Gillman at the end, made his unnatural size by an accidental application of... ahem... male anatomy enhancers.
557* In ''Ride/TheSimpsonsRide'', also at Universal Studios, Maggie wanders into a nuclear reactor and later appears as a giant, serving as something of a DeusExMachina.
558[[/folder]]
559
560[[folder:Toys]]
561* ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'' Rahi Nui is already about 50 feet tall in its standard form (and it also attacks). But it has the power to grow even larger. So large, in fact, that this has once caused its molecules to split, since it couldn't control its density.
562[[/folder]]
563
564[[folder:Video Games]]
565* ''VideoGame/AgainstTheStorm'': Threats lurking in forbidden glades include the Drainage Mole and the Giant Stormbird, giant wild animals who can summon earthquakes and storms respectively.
566* Unintentionally subverted in ''VideoGame/AgeOfMythology'', as the Giants, Frost Giants, Fire Giants and Greek colossuses are only about two or three (four tops) times the size of the human figures. Then you buy the expansion pack and watch and marvel as your enemies get goomba stomped by a giant birdman which took you an hour or so to build.
567* In ''VideoGame/{{Amea}}'', a good number of the bosses are this. Special mention goes to [[spoiler:Mish, who was only a small child the last time he was seen]].
568* ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath'' takes this to a [[ExaggeratedTrope RIDICULOUS]] level, as the final form of the first boss turns to the size of a planet and tries to CRUSH YOU TO DEATH WITH A FINGER THE SIZE OF TENNESSEE!
569** Probably the ultimate example of this in both ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath'' and possibly all of gaming is [[spoiler:[[TrueFinalBoss Chakravartin]], who's extension of his power is so big his basic projectiles are Planets and Small Stars, he throws suns at you later, and Galaxies are small in comparison to him. He's really , REALLY big.]]
570* ''Attack of the Mutant Camels''. To quote from the manual:
571-->The evil alien nasties have invaded the earth -- but not in person! They have abducted some camels from earth and used devious genetic engineering to mutate the normally harmless beasts into 90-foot-high, laser-spitting, neutronium-shielded death camels!
572* Colbear of ''VideoGame/BattleBears'', who is ''so'' huge that you can only see his large legs in the first phase of the boss, and even when he picks you up, you don't even see his entire arms.
573* The Famicom version of ''VideoGame/BokosukaWars'' has a rather silly animation on its GameOver screen depicting King Suren and his troops being chased by a giant version of King Ogereth. If the player manages to win, the ending is a reversal of this scene, with a giant Suren chasing after Ogereth and his troops.
574* The FinalBoss of ''VideoGame/ChoAniki: Kyuukyoku Muteki Ginga Saikyou Otoko'' is a 50-foot tall wrestler wearing a Speedo and a Viking helmet, whose attacks include [[NasalWeapon nasal fireballs]], {{Fartillery}}, and a navel WaveMotionGun.
575* ''VideoGame/CityOfHeroes'' has the 'Giant Monster' enemy class for foes that fall under this trope. Most of them spawn in open areas and are specially coded so that characters of any level can deal substantial damage to them. Some like the Kraken, Eochai and Devouring Earth monsters are simply giant versions of regular {{mooks}}, but there's also Lusca the gigantic octopus, Jack In Irons the giant... well, [[OurGiantsAreBigger the giant]], and one of the ultimate {{Big Bad}}s of the game; Hamidon- a colossal ''single-celled organism'' that takes dozens of players and special tactics to defeat.
576** Adamastor the giant zombie, and the HumongousMecha piloted by U'kon'Grai, [[AlienInvasion Rikti]] Master at Arms with a name that's one big in-joke[[note]]The name is pronounced "You Con Grey" which refers to the games Con system, which colored the names based on how much higher or lower it was than the player character. The lowest Con was colored Dark Gray, which indicated that the hero was at least 5 levels over the target and could pretty much one shot the character with the weakest damage power possible. As a Giant Monster, U'Kon'Grai always cons Purple, which is reserved for enemies 5 levels over the player character (and all Giant Monsters, reguardless of actual level).[[/note]]
577* In ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlertSeries Command & Conquer Red Alert: Counter Strike]]'', there is a secret campaign where you fight giant ants
578* Almost every single boss in the ''VideoGame/{{Contra}}'' series is a 50-foot robot or alien.
579* The game ''Corruption of Champions'' has quite a few giants in the game. From smallest to largest are Minverva (8'5"), the Sand Mother (8'6"), Izumi the Oni (9'0"), Corrupted Dridder (10'), and Venus the turtle-girl ('''bigger than everyone else''').
580** Shouldra, a ghost you can befriend, has spell that make certain body parts bigger but occasionally she messes up an makes the person she's inhabiting much, ''much'' bigger, almost as big as Venus.
581* In ''VideoGame/CrushCrumbleAndChomp'', the player ''is'' one of these.
582* In the Japanese [=PS2=] game ''The Daibijin'' or ''Demolition Girl'' depending on the version, the player must pilot a helicopter, and in one stage an airplane, against a bikini-clad woman who had been {{brainwashed}} and turned into a [[GiantWoman giant]] by aliens. Seriously.
583* Lordran in ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' is littered with dangerous giant beasts, such as wolves, armored boars, and magic-shooting butterflies.
584* ''Videogame/DestroyAllHumans'':
585** The final chapter of ''Videogame/DestroyallHumans1'' was called [[spoiler:Attack of the 50 Foot President]] in a reference to the '50s B-movie. Funnily enough, you fight [[spoiler:a ''50-foot robo-president BrainInAJar'']].
586** ''VideoGame/DestroyAllHumans2'' has a [[Awesome/BossesOtherGames boss fight]] in [[spoiler:Takoshima]] with [[spoiler:Kojira]].
587* Referenced in ''VideoGame/DiscworldII'', where you see a movie poster advertising ''Attack of the 50-Foot Dwarf''. [[spoiler:Also, in the endgame, a 50-Foot Elf Queen comes out of the cinema screen and you have to defeat her.]]
588* ''VideoGame/DinoRex'': All of the playable dinosaurs in this game are already pretty oversized, and the bonus stages that you play after beating each two story mode levels allow your dino to wreck a modern city, stomping military vehicles, reducing buildings to rubble and eating soldiers and unlucky bystanders in true {{Kaiju}} style.
589* ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'':
590** In ''VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories'', Flonne's angelic attacks from the first game are obviously unusable. Instead she gets to grow to giant size, wear a big patchy dinosaur costume, and breathe fire while prop planes with obvious strings fly overhead. [[UselessUsefulSpell One of the worst]], yet probably the greatest, attack in the game.
591** Monster units in ''VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten'' have the ability to fuse with another monster to approximately triple them in size, also widening the area of their skills.
592** ''VideoGame/Disgaea7VowOfTheVirtueless'' features the Jumbofication system, allowing units to grow to titanic sizes to loom over the entire map. Aside from cracking open similarly sized Treasure Chests, these units can also hit a 5x5 grid with their attack, or directly attack other jumbified characters. Jumbified characters also add new passives to the field, such as extra attacks or evading lower-altitude attacks.
593* ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' has this in the game's final boss, the Icon of Sin, which is seen as the Khan Makyr's GodzillaThreshold against [[OneManArmy the Doom Slayer]]. It has to be defeated by destroying all of its armor and then shooting it to LudicrousGibs and even then, it cannot die because it's completely immortal. The only way Doomguy gets rid of it is to jam the [[{{BFS}} Crucible]] into its brain and break the blade off to seal it away.
594* ''VideoGame/DragonQuestV'': Bjorn the Behemoose is an ancient goat-like mountain-sized demon. He is easily one of the largest bosses in the franchise.
595* In ''VideoGame/{{Drakengard}}'', the canon FinalBoss is [[spoiler:fighting a giant [[CreepyChild Manah]]]]. Play the game more, and you'll run into a no-less-gigantic [[spoiler:Grotesquerie Queen]].
596* ''VideoGame/DungeonFighterOnline'' has a ShoutOut to the above in the form of Quattro Manus, currently the last boss on the last Special Dungeon (King's Library on the [[TitleOfTheDead Castle of the Dead]]), you fight him on top of a tower a la [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom Onslaught]], complete with [[MegatonPunch attacks from the background]], [[SmashingSurvival a grab that it's lethal if you don't button mash enough]], [[DamageSpongeBoss and a obscene number of life bars]]. If you aren't prepared for this fight, you (or your party) WILL lose many [[OneUp Life Tokens]].
597* ''VideoGame/DwarfFortress'' has giant versions of many animals, the largest being the giant sperm whale which is larger than a real world blue whale. Gods help you should a giant sperm whale ever be infected with undeath as they will then proceed to come onto land to murder your entire fort. Other giant animals include giant sponges, which while not as deadly as in an earlier version where they were effectively invincible (except to copious amounts of magma, a drawbridge, having the water they were in drained, or a cave in) can still fuck your shit up far more then any sessile animal ought to be able to, and giant cave spiders which have a poison that will slowly but inevitably kill your dwarves (and most other creatures) via total paralysis followed by suffocation.
598** Forgotten Beasts are usually depicted as this trope in fanart. Considering how much resources can be harvested from one, it is safe to say they are quite large.
599* ''VideoGame/EarthBound1994'' has one area, the Lost Underworld, where everything is so huge that the characters' sprites shrink. This includes the enemies.
600** Fortunately, they later encounter the Dungeon Man ([[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a man the size of a dungeon!]]) who sees them through.
601* ''VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce5'': The player finds themselves fighting giant bipedal alien frogs and Grey aliens in armored suits both armed with energy weapons and accompanied by the hordes of giant bugs.
602* ''Franchise/TheElderScrolls'':
603** The series' standard [[OurGiantsAreBigger Giants]] typically stand 11-12 feet tall, but legends hold of Giants reaching epic proportions, standing "several times the size" of an average man.
604** When Mehrunes Dagon, the [[OurGodsAreDifferent Daedric Prince]] of [[DestroyerDeity Destruction]], manifests in Mundus (the mortal realm), he typically does so in this fashion. When he briefly [[PhysicalGod took form]] during the 11th hour of the [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion Oblivion Crisis]], he towered over everything else in the Imperial City.
605* Pandemonium in ''VideoGame/{{Everlong}}''.
606* ''VideoGame/{{Extrapower}}'': A staple in the series, given some of its {{toku}}satsu influences. Certain enemies like Stone Mack or Sinner Shiner are already gigantic, recurring bosses Mensouma and Undata are sometimes imbued with dark energy to double their size. In ''VideoGame/ExtrapowerStarResistance'', Undata becomes large enough to be as tall as half the stage, and one of the final bosses is against the gigantic, muscle-bound Shakun Star Central Computer.
607* ''VideoGame/Fallout3'' has Super Mutant Behemoths, and on the player's side, Liberty Prime.
608* David Crane's ''VideoGame/{{Ghostbusters|1984}}'' from Creator/{{Activision}} has the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man make an appearance to stomp down buildings on the city map if the player doesn't lure it away using ghost bait, as well as block the entrance to the building that the Ghostbusters must enter to stop Gozer in the final battle.
609* ''VideoGame/{{Gigantic}}'' is a [[MultiplayerOnlineBattleArena MOBA]] centered around two teams fighting alongside giant creatures known as Guardians, with the goal of defeating the enemy team's Guardian.
610* There is a pill that allows this in ''VideoGame/StreetsOfRogue'', and doing so allows you to break wall blocks and squish people.
611* The ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' series absolutely loves this trope. The [[VideoGame/GodOfWarI first game]] features, among its bosses, a Hydra so large it more or less takes up the entire level, a gigantic [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot robot/cyborg/Steampunk minotaur]], and Ares, who could probably wrestle Godzilla. [[VideoGame/GodOfWarII The sequel]] has Kratos get in on the act briefly, pulling a Godzilla-Of-War on Rhodes, and then fighting the Colossus of Rhodes while normal-sized. While Zeus is ''close'' to Kratos' size the time you fight him, he's still noticeably larger than the already-abnormally-large Kratos. Titans, giant monsters, and oversize gods abound in the rest of the series.
612* In ''VideoGame/Hitman2016'' completing a secret challenge in the Bangkok level summons a Kaiju sized Cockroach to destroy a city.
613* In ''VideoGame/ItCameFromTheDesert1989'', humanity falls under attack from giant ants.
614* ''VideoGame/JetIsland'' has giant spiders, lizards, and worms, as well as multiple drones scattered about that all dwarf the player.
615* ''[[VideoGame/KaoTheKangaroo Kao The Kangaroo: Round 2]]'' has a lot of bosses like this, to the point where the train engineer you fight at one point is ''bigger than the train itself''.
616* ''VideoGame/KingOfTheMonsters'', is a FightingGame where the competitors are giant monsters.
617* ''VideoGame/Kirby64TheCrystalShards'' downplays this. Rock + Rock turns Kirby into an oversized MightyGlacier version of himself. Take FridgeLogic and the fact that Kirby's 8" tall, and you realize that the Rock + Rock Kirby is 1'04"! (50 feet would actually be 37.5 times as large as Rock + Rock Kirby)
618** Star Dream in ''VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot''. While it was already quite huge to begin with, [[spoiler:when it merges with the Access Ark in the second phase it becomes the size of a ''small planet,'' being one of the largest final bosses in the series to date.]]
619** King Dedede goes through this in ''VideoGame/KirbysBlowoutBlast''. After his defeat, he absorbs the power of a Sparkling Star and grows to the size of a giant. [[spoiler:The final time he does this, he combines it with the CoolMask of Masked Dedede to make Giant Masked Dedede.]]
620** [[spoiler:Void Termina]] in ''VideoGame/KirbyStarAllies'', [[spoiler:fitting for his role as the "True Destroyer of Worlds". His outer shell, at least. His core is at least thrice as big as Kirby.]]
621* In ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' game ''VideoGame/HyruleWarriors'':
622** With the Summoning Gate, Lana can bring up a gigantic Cucco to devastate the battlefield.
623** Ganon's Fury mode lets you play as a Giant Boss. Link's Great Fairy "weapon" (read: she does the fighting while Link is stuck in a bottle) works similarly in other modes. And you can unlock the Cucco as a playable character in Ganon's Fury.
624* ''VideoGame/{{Lemegeton}}'''s first episode ends with a fight against Gaap, a ''huge'' demon who may ''literally'' be 50 feet tall. The best way to describe him is a kind of humanoid fort that periodically sweeps one side of the room with a [[TakenForGranite petrifying beam]].
625* An early level in ''3D VideoGame/{{Lemmings}}'' is "Attack of the 50 foot Lemming" -- your lemmings start on the giant lemming's head and make their way down to the feet. Unfortunately there's no attacking, just a level designed to look like a giant lemming.
626* The arcade rail shooter ''VideoGame/LetsGoJungle!'' features hordes of giant critters as enemies. In addition to {{giant spider}}s, there's giant wasps, giant frogs, a giant mantis, and the final boss is ''a giant killer butterfly''.
627* Late in the Japan-only PC-FX game ''Makeruna! Makendou Z'', after our heroes are put to sleep by Honmayaner, Hikari dreams that she is a giantess fighting a three-headed dragon.
628* ''VideoGame/TheMatrixPathOfNeo''. [[spoiler:At the end of the game, which corresponds with the end of ''Matrix Revolutions'', two avatars of the Wachowski siblings themselves [[AddressingThePlayer speak directly to the player]] and explain that, while the Martyr ending was OK for the movies and the story, it just wouldn't work that well for a videogame. So instead, all the Smiths get together and grab various bits of destroyed junk and debris, as well as a giant pair or sunglasses from an ad, and for a GIANT Smith.]]
629* ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory'': Parts of the game have Bowser grow to enormous proportions and fight giant enemies, usually after he's been nearly crushed to death by them, and needs [[spoiler:the Mario Brothers]] to revive him from within.
630* ''VideoGame/MoshiMonsters'': In Humongous Haven, people randomly [[IncredibleShrinkingMan shrink]] and turn into giants.
631* ''VideoGame/MuramasaTheDemonBlade'':
632** Momohime's fourth boss, Ippondatara. You have to fight his giant foot first (which refers to a legend regarding one of Kyoto's mansions), then his huge body. From time to time he will turn into the harmless Inosasao (a giant boar with bamboo leaves on his back).
633** And then there's the giant centipede, the second boss in Kisuke's story.
634* In ''VideoGame/{{Octogeddon}}'', cities worldwide are destroyed by the titular giant octopus (which can mutate its tentacles in various other animal parts like crab claws or penguin heads).
635* One scenario in ''VideoGame/OsuTatakaeOuendan'' revolves around a {{Salaryman}} growing to gigantic height to fight a giant blue mouse that was attacking the city. The second ''Ouendan'' game had a giant cat called Nyaragon. Nyaragon was based on the monster from a movie that was being made in ''VideoGame/EliteBeatAgents'', ''Ouendan'''s sister series.
636* One stage of ''[[VideoGame/ParappaTheRapper Parappa The Rapper 2]]'' involves Parappa and an ant being repeatedly shrunk and then grown to enormous size.
637* ''VideoGame/PennyArcadeAdventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness'' starts with Gabe and Tycho chasing after this giant robot that flattened your character's house.
638* In ''VideoGame/Persona5'', the final form of the BigBad is a 20 story tall giant robotic god covered in gold and crystal armor, who you end up fighting with an even ''bigger'' demon king on a giant tree like dungeon looming over Tokyo, Japan.
639** The UpdatedRerelease, ''Royal'', [[spoiler:has Adam Kadmon, the Persona of [[BigBadFriend Dr. Maruki]] also grow to this size... and the player ''doesn't'' have access to a similar ability.]]
640* In ''VideoGame/PokemonLegendsArceus'', the final and largest noble Pokemon Hisuian Avalugg. The thing is huge and the player character looks rather small next to it.
641* In ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'', there is a phenomenon called Dynamax which unique to specific locations in the Galar region. Pokémon affected by this phenomenon can temporary become giant. The Galar league harnesses Dynamax by building Gyms on those locations, and trainers gain access to this power with a Dynamax Band. There's also a variant called Gigantamax, in which Pokémon become giant and change form akin to [[SuperMode Mega Evolution]] from ''VideoGame/PokemonXAndY''.
642* One of the [[ShowWithinAShow movie scripts]] in ''VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2'' is this; the protagonist's girlfriend/sister is turned into a giant in the middle of the city by a cursed Poké Ball, and much panic and flailing ensues.
643* In ''VideoGame/{{Poptropica}}'''s 24 Carrot Island level, [[spoiler:Dr. Hare sends giant robot-rabbit to attack you as the final line of defense against your (heroic) assault.]]
644* In ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'', stepping [[JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind into the mind of a giant lake monster]] transforms you into an enormous monster called ''{{Gogg|lesDoNothing}}alor."
645* In the classic arcade game ''VideoGame/{{Rampage}}'', you play a human turned into a giant monster by [[FreakLabAccident an experiment gone wrong]] and demolish everything in sight.
646* ''Franchise/RatchetAndClank'' has had robot Clank turn into a HumongousMecha, who gets to level the surrounding area. A later game in the series, fittingly called ''Size Matters'', features a lot of both this and IncredibleShrinkingMan as part of it's plot.
647* A series tradition in ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' is fighting creatures that became giant sized usually as a direct result of the T-Virus. So far, in order, the heroes have had to fight a snake as big as a bus, a great white straight out of ''Film/{{Jaws}}'', a spider [[GiantSpider big enough]] to crush a tank, [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile an alligator]] that can barely fit in the hallway you fight it in, a caterpillar that that can swallow a man whole, an earthworm that can swallow a man whole, another spider that can crush a tank, and a salamander so large it can drag a boat around. All of the Tyrant bosses meanwhile, are WasOnceAMan now anywhere from 8 to 10 feet tall with WolverineClaws. A standard enemy in most of the games are spiders big enough to tackle a person, and in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis'', mutant fleas bigger than Jill.
648* ''VideoGame/ScoobyDooUnmasked'': [[spoiler:The giant Pterodactyl animatronic]] that serves as the game's final boss.
649* ''VideoGame/{{Scribblenauts}}'': The addition of adjectives allows you to make any living creature into a gigantic version of itself.
650* The final boss of ''VideoGame/SeriousSamTheFirstEncounter'' is Ugh Zan III, a giant four armed monster who is so big that Serious Sam only reaches up to his foot. Almost all of the second-to-last level is about outrunning him to the super weapon stored inside a pyramid because he's too damn big. He's an actual enemy inside the level, not just an AdvancingWallOfDoom (though he functions the same way).
651* Every boss except the final episode in ''VideoGame/ShawsNightmare.'' They are huge compared to the tiny protagonist.
652* ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIV'' gives the ultimate DLC challenge against [[spoiler:Tokyo local protector deity Masakado. While in other games is a normal sized human, in this case is a being so giant that skyscrapers protrude from his shoulders, his hands are giant roots ripped from the earth, his waist is connected to the ground via magma, and is so big that he could be measured in kilometers. He can completely cover the whole city of Tokyo (creating the Firmament) and also host a complete medieval society on his very back (several villages, a big lake and fortified city with several protective rings, huge castle included). His inner body includes Naraku, a giant maze cave which is home to several demons connected to the freaking Sky Tower that links both Tokyo and Mikado. And he's also ''strong enough to tank a last-gen nuke''. You actually can't beat him in the game, you have to calm him down in ten minutes (ten turns in game) so he can tank the Nuke before it turns Tokyo into Blasted Tokyo. [[http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130710192505/megamitensei/images/7/78/Masakado_Complete_Form_SMTIV.png/ A pic ]] for reference]].
653* ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiV'' has Surt, a giant humanoid demon whose [[FlamingSword flaming]] {{BFS}} alone is as tall as the buildings in his immediate vicinity, and Lucifer, who's ''as tall as the Tokyo Tower'' [[note]]333 meters / roughly 1100 feet, for reference[[/note]] in this game. [[spoiler:His [[AppearanceIsInTheEyeOfTheBeholder true form]] isn't ''as'' gigantic, but he's still several times taller than the Nahobino.]]
654* This happens quite a bit across ''VideoGame/SimCity'' series, including Franchise/{{Godzilla}}, [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Bowser]], and a cycloptic floating GiantSpider with a WaveMotionGun.
655* The end of the second chapter in ''VideoGame/Sly3HonorAmongThieves''. Due to unforeseen combination of sleep darts and [[EvilMask Mask of Dark Earth]]'s influence, Carmelita starts growing. And yes, the DatingCatwoman protagonist Sly gets to solve the problem with a [[ColossusClimb Carmelita Climb]], as put by the game.
656-->'''Bentley:''' You've always wanted to get closer to her. Can't get much closer than climbing up her boot laces!
657** Much later in the game, Dr. M attacks you with a large mutant... Thing.
658* In the ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' series, Sonic and friends tend to fight these things as final bosses, usually either as HumongousMecha created by Dr. Eggman or monsters unleashed by Dr. Eggman. Since our heroes are no bigger than three feet (with a fex exceptions), it makes the bosses even bigger.
659* In ''VideoGame/SpiderManAndTheXMenInArcadesRevenge'', Gambit's level boss is a gigantic Selene robot. The FinalBoss is also a giant robot based on Arcade.
660* ''VideoGame/{{Spore}}'' gives us Epic creatures, larger versions of creatures made by other players that start off at a large, but not ridiculously so size in the creature stage, but become downright massive in Civilization. In Space phase, you can use the "Supersizer" tool to enlarge creatures, turning the scenario into "Attack Of The 50 Foot Whatever You Want". FurryConfusion ensues when the game selects a species whose hnau version you brought up to Diplomat Hero in the last game.
661* The right parameters when spawning mobs in ''VideoGame/StarTrekEliteForce 2'' will allow you to make Map sized lizards and borg collosi, among other things.
662* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
663** In ''VideoGame/YoshisIsland'', the bosses are normal enemies made {{giant|Mook}} by the magic of Kamek (except for one battle that involved Yoshi and Baby Mario getting shrunk). In fact the final battle involved Kamek enlarging Baby Bowser to a size bigger than the castle they were in.
664** There's also ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros'', ''VideoGame/SuperPaperMario'', and ''VideoGame/SuperMario3DWorld'', where there are power ups that can make the player character grow as tall as the screen and tear through enemies and obstacles.
665** There's also Giant Land in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'', where all the standard enemies are now bigger than Mario or Luigi.
666** A recurrent boss in the 3-D games is a Goomba as big as a house.
667** Bowser at the end of ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii'' looks rather similar to Franchise/{{Godzilla}}.
668** ''[[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' has Bowser being super-charged on adrenaline and growing super giant in order to battle his hijacked castle, a [[HumongousMecha giant robot]] coming out of nowhere, a train, and [[spoiler:''Princess Peach's Castle'' (as remodeled by Fawful)]], preceded by Bowser being crushed by the buildings.
669** ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam'' has Luigi grow to giant size in the Dream World to face off against giant bosses. [[spoiler:In a nod to the previous game, he ultimately gets to face off against a giant Bowser in what's probably his most triumphant moment in the series.]]
670** ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheOrigamiKing'' has the Paper Macho Soldiers, large versions of existing enemies made of papier-mâché. Most are only three to five times Mario's height, but the Paper Macho Shy Guys in Overlook Mountain are about ten times Mario's height, and the Mega Paper Macho Pokey in Scorching Sandpaper Desert is at least the size of a building. The latter is a {{deconstruction}}, as its size causes it to fall over every several seconds, which gives Mario the opening he needs to fight it--as it gets shorter as Mario destroys whatever segment is at the bottom at the time, the Mega Paper Macho Pokey falls over less and less. [[spoiler:Then, [[BigBad King Olly]] folds himself into a giant origami beast for Mega Bowser to take on. He then gets even larger as Mega King Olly during his VillainousBreakdown.]]
671* ''VideoGame/MarioParty10'': Bowser towers over Team Mario in Bowser Party mode, being even larger than the nearby buildings like the mid-boss fortresses. He destroys much of the scenery as he charges through the boards in pursuit of Team Mario.
672* ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'':
673** An important part of the story involves a giant sword that destroyed the Star Road and crashed right into Bowser's Keep.
674** Throughout the game, there are also power-ups that either double or half a character's size, and allows that character more or less control respectively over his partner.
675* ''VideoGame/SuperMetroid'': When they called this game "Super" Metroid, it was for good reason. Fortunately, despite its innocent, insatiable hunger, the giant Metroid is on your side. Kraid is also much bigger than he was in ''VideoGame/Metroid1'', which is now his canon design and size.
676* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'':
677** In ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'', Jigglypuff's Final Smash, Puff Up, causes her to grow/inflate to such a size that it can push other characters off the stage. Most evident on small stages.
678** Bowser's equivalent Final Smash move involves turning into the dreaded Giga Bowser and wreaking havoc on everybody. Giga Bowser is much larger in ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee Melee]]'' than he is in ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl Brawl]]'', and can get Super-Mushroomed to a downright ridiculous size.
679* ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' {{lampshade|Hanging}}s this in their promotional material for an update to [[MultiMookMelee Mann vs. Machine]], [[http://www.teamfortress.com/mechaupdate/ when the robotic Engineer was added.]]
680-->And as the incredible art above this paragraph illustrates, (the Mecha-Engineer) will be over '''one hundred feet tall!''' (It will not.) Not to worry, though, because it looks like Engineer will also be '''one hundred feet tall!''' (He also will not.)
681* ''VideoGame/TheiaTheCrimsonEclipse'': After becoming the spirit of Ariathale's third moon,Rudra becomes a gigantic spectral Varzan with enough power to kill a similarly gigantic Halcon/Themis in one slash.
682* In ''Total Rampage'', you play a giant monster trying to terrorize a city. Very similar to it's arcade counterpart, ''Rampage'', mentioned at the start of this folder.
683* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'':
684** Suika utilizes her control of density to grow herself really large and heavy for some of her attacks in ''Immaterial and Missing Power'' and ''Scarlet Weather Rhapsody''.
685** The plot of ''Hisoutensoku'' boils down to three characters seeing an impossibly huge shadow of something and going off in pursuit of whatever it was (though only one of them successfully tracks down the cause of their respective shadow). The last boss fights of Cirno's and Meiling's scenarios do this to a doll and a catfish, respectively. In the latter case, the catfish starts off as merely huge and continues to grow each time it attacks. Sanae's scenario inverts this by making her last boss the shortest character in the game.
686** ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarisaLand'' does this for [[spoiler:the final boss]].
687* One of the bosses in ''VideoGame/{{Transistor}}'' is "The Spine of the World", a massive Process that resembles a horseshoe crab with a long, spiked prehensile tail that it uses to attack Red as she climbs Highrise to get to it. Its mere ''presence'' causes the Transistor to go haywire and become delirious. [[spoiler:And even worse, there's more than one.]]
688* ''VideoGame/{{Ultrakill}}'': While several enemies dwarf V1, a few bosses go beyond that by being ''absolutely massive'', each of them ranking as "Supreme" in their respective category.
689** The Corpse of King Minos, the final boss of the Lust layer.
690** [[KrakenAndLeviathan The Leviathan]], the final boss of the Wrath layer.
691** [[spoiler:[[HumongousMecha 1000-THR]] "[[MeaningfulName Earthmover]]"]], the final boss of the Violence layer.
692* ''VideoGame/WarioWareSnapped'': Jimmy T. makes comics after all of his microgames are played, though a panel will not show if a player fails a single microgame. If all of the microgames are successfully cleared in a certain order, there will be a comic where the player gets hit in the face by a boy named Jack. A guy proceeds to give the player magic beans that, when consumed, cause the player to grow to an enormous size, giving the player an advantage over Jack, who is promptly swatted away by the player.
693* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' has a few monstrous foes.
694** Vanilla has the [[TRexpy Devilsaurs]], various giants, and the Fire Lord Ragnaros.
695** ''The Burning Crusade'' added [[HumongousMecha Fel Reavers]], Colossi (crystalline giants), and the one-eyed Gronn.
696** ''Cataclysm'' is bringing in Whale Sharks and [[spoiler:Neltharion himself, who is FREAKING HUGE]]!
697** In ''Wrath Of The Lich King'', the Ulduar raid dungeon is a Titan city, and thus is made of this trope, by this trope, for this trope.
698** You also get to be this in one of the new dungeons (Throne of the Tides) for part of the last boss, where you have to drive away a gigantic squid from the equivalent of a water god's lair.
699** The Badlands quest "The Day That Deathwing Came" features three characters drunkenly telling tall tales about how they defeated Deathwing (a dragon). You play out each tale from the character's perspective - one involves a gnome growing to gigantic size and yanking Deathwing from his hiding place ''in the sun''. You then throw him to another continent.
700* ''VideoGame/YouAreEmpty'' has the Lenin Komsomol Hens, ordinary chickens transformed by SovietSuperscience into vicious giants.
701* ''VideoGame/ZombiesAteMyNeighbors'':
702** The game features such bosses as giant babies, giant snakes, and two mad scientists who turn into giant red tarantulas.
703** The level with the giant ants. It's not a boss, but a level where the enemies are giant ants.
704[[/folder]]
705
706[[folder:Web Animation]]
707* In ''WebAnimation/GamingAllStars'', many of the antagonists’ one-winged angel forms count as this (E.g. [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee Giga Bowser]] in ''The Ultimate Crossover'' and ''Remastered'', [[VideoGame/MediEvil Zarok’s]] cobra form in ''2''), as well as villains who are already rather jumbo-sized in the first place (E.g. [[VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet The Negativitron]] and [[VideoGame/{{Rampage}} Ralph]] in ''The Ultimate Crossover'' and ''Remastered''). Either way, they absolutely ''dwarf'' all of the human-sized characters.
708* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' spoofs this in the WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail [[Recap/StrongBadEmailE166Unnatural unnatural]], where Bubs is turned into the gigantic "King Bubsgonzola Supreme" and goes on a rampage, so, Strong Bad, Homestar, The Cheat, and their friends must find a way to stop him.
709* A giant Discord razes Ponyville for much of the ''WebAnimation/PonyDotMov'' series. In ''SWAG.MOV'', Rainbow Dash grows to an equal height to battle him.
710* ''WebAnimation/ImAnton'': A giant [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdqD365rQ6o mantis]] began roaming around the city, destroying buildings and eating people. It was eventually taken down by the military and Terada bought the remains.
711* ''WebAnimation/AstroLOLogy'':
712** In "Roachzilla", the city is attacked by a giant cockroach with DramaQueen Pisces being a witness and scared to death of it. [[spoiler:It's actually just her overactive imagination exaggerating the size of the insect, though.]]
713** In "Robopocalypse", the Gemini twins defend against another giant cockroach.
714* ''WebAnimation/HumansBGone'' is all about giant, intelligent bugs so huge that humans are to them what normal bugs are to us.
715* ''WebAnimation/TheWrathOfGigaBowser'': Upon being created, Giga Bowser is actually quite small, standing roughly the same height as Dr. Mario. As its rampage goes on however, it can be seen growing visibly larger and larger; by the time it reaches the Stadium, a single one of its claws is larger than any other character is.
716[[/folder]]
717
718[[folder:Web Comics]]
719* In ''Webcomic/BioApocalypse'' we have [[spoiler:the fetus monster (in this case, 50 miles tall).]] May also qualify as an EldritchAbomination.
720* In ''Webcomic/BlackAdventures'', both Garby the Garbodor and Landorus become this when attacking Striaton and Driftveil, respectively. They both revert to their original sizes after being defeated by Black and N.
721* In ''Webcomic/BonniesBody'', Bonnie continuously grows bigger and bigger after eating any form of substance until she is big enough to attack the city and devour countless buildings and millions of innocent people. In the next chapter, Bonnie crushes the entire city under her foot and continues her rampage and unstoppable hunger.
722* ''Webcomic/BronzeSkinInc'': : For unknown reasons, women all over the world, including twelve in Rio de Janeiro, have grown to immense size.
723* ''Webcomic/DaPukas'' has Chacal an absolutely huge jackal, who wants to eat the main characters.
724* In ''Webcomic/{{Fite}}'', [[spoiler:Lucco grows giant after [[FusionDance absorbing Guz]] and defeats King Frogera by ''eating him'']].
725* ''Webcomic/TheFuzzyPrincess'': Happens to both [[YouDirtyRat Krisa]] and [[ADogNamedDog Kat]] in the chapter King-sized Princess.
726* In ''Webcomic/GS260'', Mimete grew into a 12 story giant and destroyed a military facility and kidnapped one of its commanding officers.
727* This also happens to Springtrap as shown [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FiYLBsP70eI here]] when he grows to giant size because why the hell not? Then he asks "Okay, can I help you with something?" Then Foxy sings the Jurassic Park theme song to go with it. You know the lyrics!
728-->'''Foxy:''' 🎵[[Film/JurassicPark Holy fucking shit, It's a dinosaur! Jesus Christ! What the fuuuuuck!? Oh my fucking god, fucking dinosaurs! Holy shit! What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!]]🎵
729* In one series of ''Webcomic/ThePetriDish'' strips, Thaddeus tries to shrink a mouse but enlarges it instead. He tries again but shrinks ''himself'' and ends up shrinking into a microscopic world. When he comes back, the microbes have grown with him, but they shrink back.
730* Golems from ''Webcomic/PureLight'' are generally pretty big, the one that attacked Warfang in chapter 3 was considered small. Cataclysm, who attacked during Bloody Dawn, was at least twice the height of the Warfang wall.
731* In ''Webcomic/RustyAndCo'', this results from Rusty getting hold of the Belt of Genre Changing.
732-->'''Rusty:''' EAT TOKYO?
733* In the ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'' arc "GOFOTRON, Champion of the Cosmos", the titular CombiningMecha regularly battles giant monsters created by the evil Zorgon empire. One of these creatures was a hundred-foot ''broccoli'' monster.
734* Sarah Nicole Megan's second appearance in ''Webcomic/{{Spinnerette}}'' has her wielding some ImportedAlienPhlebotinum to allow her to become this, with Spinnerette herself receiving another copy to allow her to fight on equal ground.
735* ''Webcomic/StandStillStaySilent'': Being a BodyOfBodies made of PlagueZombie creatures or being any bigger than the being of origin is technically enough to be called a giant. However there is no ''upper'' limit to the number of components, and giants that actually are the size of buildings have made a few appearances in the story.
736%% This is a zero-context example. Please do not unhide until further context has been added.* Happens to Vinicius in ''Webcomic/{{Vinigortonio}}'' during a test on Natural Sciences.
737[[/folder]]
738
739[[folder:Web Original]]
740* In ''Script/C0DA'', [[PhysicalGod Vivec]] takes a "Giant Size" form to "chase the demons away" in a flashback "voiced over" by Jubal. He later instructs the other members of the "Pseudo-6th-House", essentially a superhero team of {{Physical God}}s, to take such a form when battling [[ArcVillain The Intellective]], but [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome we don't get to see the battle itself]].
741* ''Literature/HitherbyDragons'' gives us [[http://imago.hitherby.com/?p=308 Night of the Antinomian]], about a 300-foot-tall, 14th-century Church reformer.
742* {{Shapeshift|ing}}er Jimmy T in the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'' did this when all of [[SuperheroSchool Whateley Academy]] was under attack. He first transformed into a 50-foot woman, and when he got blasted, he went ''bigger''. He shifted into an 80-foot Godzilla copy.
743[[/folder]]
744
745[[folder:Web Videos]]
746* Ginary has many examples of giants in her videos. One example is “The Meg” video of hers, which features Megan Jones as a giant eating Kitty Quinn and Anastasia Rose whole.
747* In Creator/JossWhedon's Supervillain Musical ''WebVideo/DrHorriblesSingAlongBlog'' the revenge daydreams of the titular MadScientist character include him turning into a 50-foot giant and stomping on his arch nemesis.
748* Underground Musician-slash-MadScientist Music/DoctorSteel has a song entitled "Atomic Superstar" about Godzilla attacking Tokyo.
749* In his review of ''ComicBook/{{Neutro}}'', [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] is attacked by the giant robot, then makes himself giant by pulling out [[MythologyGag a quarter]] and intoning "[[MakeMyMonsterGrow Magic Coin, make my me grow!]] [[FridgeLogic ...Wait..]]" He later uses Neutro against a giant Mechakara.
750[[/folder]]
751
752[[folder:Western Animation]]
753* One episode of the ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' had Tails grow to Godzilla-like proportions and eat anything that he found edible nonstop. Unfortunately for the locals, they were all [[LetsMeetTheMeat walking, talking wieners]].
754* Davey Hacker uses a gadget to make himself gigantic in ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingSpiez'' episode "Operation The 50 Ft. Hacker." Megan winds up using the same gadget to make herself giant as well, but it eventually backfires and causes her to expand like a balloon.
755* ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'': "Bigger than regular chicken? You mean...Mega-Ultra-Chicken? Ssssh! Is Legend!"
756* Happen to Veronica in one episode of ''WesternAnimation/ArchiesWeirdMysteries''.
757* ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' had a couple of episodes which featured some of the characters as giants. D.W. mostly gets this treatment.
758** In the intro of “D.W.’s Very Bad Mood”, she is seen a giant who rampages though Elwood City.
759** In “Emily Swallows A Horse”, D.W. is a giant chasing after Emily, who hides inside. She rips off the roof and grabs her. Thankfully, it was a nightmare.
760** In the intro of “How The Cookie Crumbles”, Arthur, Brain, Binky and Francine are turned into cookies, and to make matters worse, a giant Muffy attempts to eat them.
761** In “Arthur’s Family Vacation”, Arthur dreams that he and Buster sailing on a river. Unfortunately, a giant D.W. appears and Arthur and Buster jump off quickly before D.W. steps on the boat.
762** In the episode “The Pageant Pickle", Arthur imagines Mr. Ratburn defeating a giant D.W.
763* Seen in one ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman'' episode where the nanobot-enhanced Joker 2.0 learns to increase his size by changing objects into nanobots, becomes a giant, and decides to destroy both the original Joker and the heroes, leaving the city free for him to ravage.
764* Way Big, from ''WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce'' is a good guy example. He's even called a {{Toku}}'star, after the ''tokusatsu'' genre. One episode had a TakingYouWithMe failsafe that created a giant monster designed to ''nuke the earth''. It was activated by a Highbreed officer who didn't get the memo.
765** And now in ''WesternAnimation/Ben10UltimateAlien'' [[spoiler:Gwen has had her moment too, growing very large to intimidate Zombozo the second time she takes her Anodite form]].
766* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/BikerMiceFromMars'' featured two monsters named Gorgonzola and Monsterella. The two of them could grow to giant size by blowing themselves up like balloons.
767** Also it's intro sequence had Limburger appear gigantic near the middle.
768* On ''WesternAnimation/{{Bonkers}}'' a mediocre clown goes around stealing the humor from {{Toon}}s. Eventually all the humor gets absorbed by his toon sidekick, turning him into a giant who attacks the city with {{slapstick}}.
769* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/BuzzLightyearOfStarCommand'' with giant extremists of the planet (ironically named) Gargantia. The subversion comes through the fact that the natural height of a Gargantian is 6 inches and the 6-foot terrorists are actually turning off the tech that the heroes are using to avoid this problem in their natural height (earlier, Booster was a little upset that his seat for a ceremony was a bank).
770* After exposure to a growth ray on ''WesternAnimation/CelebrityDeathmatch'', Music/JessicaSimpson took out 98 Degrees' HumongousMecha.
771* ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'':
772** In "Fake Me to Your Leader", Professor Nimnul fakes an alien invasion by enlarging insects to around twice the size of a human. Little does he know until near the end of the episode that he also accidentally zapped Zipper with his Gigantico Gun, resulting in the smallest Rescue Ranger becoming a giant who ends up stopping him. The other Rangers manage to get the gun, set it to reverse, and shrink Zipper back to his normal size.
773** Also used for a couple of brief scenes in "Puffed Rangers". The villains unwittingly enlarge the Rangers, who then end up scaring them off. Monty gets to have a bit of fun before returning to normal size.
774%%* A few WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts, including ''WesternAnimation/BraveLittleTailor'' and ''Giantland''.
775* In one episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheCritic'', Jay Sherman reviews a film where [[BigApplesauce New York City]] is attacked by a 50-foot Ed Koch (the city's former mayor).
776* In ''WesternAnimation/TheCrumpets'' episode "Octosquito", José, the titular creature who was an octopus that just fused with a mosquito, flies and shoots ink at the terrified Crumpet children in their house. His size expands once he finds and consumes Pa's brew. He snatches his luring cross-dressed owner to a room and [[BlackComedyRape performs an implied rape]], then during another confrontation at the children he eats a part of the head of one of them (due to other factors, the kids' heads were temporarily literal crumpets). José would die from Granny throwing him to a [[HelicopterBlender helicopter blade]].
777* WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck spends the end of "Planet of the Capes" this way. So did the villain, until the ray they were using to grow was broken. When you start using astronomical phenomena as melee and thrown weapons, you've put on a little weight.
778* ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'':
779** The 2nd pilot episode, "Big Sister" has [=DeeDee=] becoming a giant after consuming one of Dexter's experimental super cookies. Which leads to him using a giant robot in a attempt to stop [=DeeDee=] from accidentally wrecking the city.
780** The episode "Monstory" involves Dexter accidentally turning [=DeeDee=] into a giant monster after giving her the wrong potion to keep her from telling an annoying story. This eventually leads to Dexter turning into a giant monster as well.
781* In "[[Recap/DragonTalesS2E5 One Big Wish]]" on ''WesternAnimation/DragonTales'', Max is [[HeightAngst tired of being smaller than Emmy and his dragon friends]] and unable to do certain things. He makes a wish on a wishing well to grow bigger, but doesn't specify a limit. This is what eventually results. He ends up even taller than the parents of the dragon friends, which is quite something, as those characters are so tall they're normally shown on-screen from about the middle of the belly down because they just wouldn't fit in a normal frame.
782* ''WesternAnimation/{{Duckman}}'' ate a combination of odd chemicals that caused him to grow whenever he got angry. Duckman being Duckman, by the end he was taller than a two-story house, and went to a deserted island so his anger wouldn't hurt himself or anyone else. While he was isolated, his depression shrank him to mouse size, but he had no frame of reference, so he couldn't tell.
783* ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'':
784** One episode was called "Attack of the 50-Foot Webby".
785** "[[Recap/DuckTalesADuckTalesValentine A DuckTales Valentine]]": The towering Vulcan shows up to attack Scrooge toward the end of the episode.
786* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'': [[RashomonStyle Ed's version]] of how he, Double-D and Eddy ended up inside Johnny's wall featured gigantic versions of the Kanker sisters rampaging the cul-de-sac looking for the trio, who took up refuge inside the wall.
787* This happens ''twice'' in the Season 2 finale of ''WesternAnimation/TheEpicTalesOfCaptainUnderpants''[[spoiler:, courtesy of Melvinborg’s nanobots. First it’s Melvin near the end of Part 1, then it’s Captain Underpants himself in Part 2, with a bit of BrainwashedAndCrazy on top of it]].
788* The ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCatJoeOriolo'' episode "Abominable Snowman" has Felix and Professor encounter the eponymous snowman, who is a skyscraper sized monstrosity that both Felix and Professor are left at the mercy of.
789* On ''WesternAnimation/FishHooks'', Milo discovers a tank that makes fish bigger, and uses it to make himself stronger. He ends up overdoing it, stomping through the pet shop [[Film/Ghostbusters1984 wearing a little sailor suit and hat]].
790* ''WesternAnimation/TheFlaminThongs'': In "A Fright at the Opera", using an alien shrinking-and-enlarging device that falls from the sky, Holden enlarges a seashell to be the Whale Bay Opera House. He forgets to check it’s empty and an enlarged, enraged crustacean creates operatic havoc.
791* The animated adaptation of ''Series/FraggleRock'' has the episode "Big Trouble for a Little Fraggle". Wembley wishes he was big, but a magical stone causes him to grow bigger and bigger to the point where he becomes Gorg-sized.
792* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'':
793** Spoofed in the WhatIf episode, with Bender coming to earth as a 500-foot version of his regular self, and Dr. Zoidberg being supersized to battle him. (The spoof aspect comes when Zoidberg is seduced by power and begins destroying the city himself -- "Ah, the famed Apollo theater. "Boo" ''me'' off stage on Open-mic night, huh? I'll show you!")
794** Played straight in the episode "Benderama", wherein a 50-foot nerd attacks New New York City.
795* Oberon in ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' makes himself gigantic when trying to kidnap Alexander Xanatos.
796%%* Naturally occurring in ''WesternAnimation/GodzillaTheSeries''.
797* In "Bunny Trouble" from ''WesternAnimation/GoldieAndBear'', Goldie and Bear forget about the instructions for feeding the titular bunny, Lenny, and he ends up getting a bowlful of his magical food from Gnome when he's only supposed to have half a cupful. He grows to enormous size and begins hopping throughout Fairytale Forest wreaking havoc. They eventually find some magical food to shrink him down, but by then, he and Giant have made friends and Giant wants to keep him as he is for his own pet. It's agreed they can stay together, without Lenny being shrunk.
798* ''WesternAnimation/HamsterAndGretel'': The superhero duo have faced numerous giant threats, including a giant otter pup in “Cutie and the Beast”, a giant man-baby in “Abuelita’s World”, and a giant ''lemon'' in “When Life Gives you Lemons”.
799* ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'': Alastor displays the ability to turn himself into a giant in Episode 5, which he uses to slaughter the loan sharks attacking the Hotel ([[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill though most of that was for show]], as he could've easily killed them in his normal size).
800* ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'': Skeletor tries this when he gets a power boost. The cliffs around Snake Mountain aren't [[NoOSHACompliance rated for]] sudden increases in weight.
801* ''WesternAnimation/TheHillFarm'': The bear is ''gigantic''. It's bigger than the barn that all the humans and livestock hide in.
802* Ultra-Pipi from the ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' episode "Hamstergeddon". He even gets back ridge-plates and atomic breath after demolishing a nuclear power plant. And somehow a cybernetic foot. ([[RuleOfCool Because it looks cool, presumably.]])
803** Professor Membrane also warns that altering the timestream will cause a giant fish in a bear suit to rampage through Tokyo.
804* Happens to Jade in the ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' episode "[[Recap/JackieChanAdventuresS3E11LittleValmontBigJade Little Valmont, Big Jade]]" as she tries to cast a spell to become older and instead becomes huge. Her destruction, however, is limited to a demolition zone as she battled a giant ogre conjured by the BigBad. Also see Po Kong the Mountain Demon, who is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. Tohru, in reference to this, becomes one briefly too.
805* The 'music video' to "I Am A Giant" from ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'' has a giant Pizzazz parodying ''Franchise/KingKong''. The song itself is an egotistical song instead of literally being about a giant.
806* In the ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo'' cartoon "Jumbo Johnny", an overdose of protein shakes made Johnny fat, and enough of them eventually made him grow to a gigantic height.
807* In Episode 102 of ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'', the characters [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext use pages from books to turn themselves into whatever the books are about]], and [[VillainProtagonist Mr. Cat and Stumpy]] use a copy of Literature/GulliversTravels to turn themselves into giants.
808* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'':
809** In "Rufus vs. Commodore Puddles", a fifty-foot naked mole-rat squares off against an equally large French poodle, in combat at Area 51. The garrison there kept giant, truck-mounted dog whistles and bombers full of dog biscuits available [[CrazyPrepared for just that situation]]. "Full frontal assault by giant canine. That's a forty-one stroke five-S scenario."
810** The credits for the first three seasons have a brief clip of a scene ([[MissingTrailerScene that never appeared in the show]]) of a gigantic Shego battling Kim (or perhaps a [[IncredibleShrinkingMan miniaturized Kim]] battling a normal-sized Shego).
811* As usual, Creator/TexAvery played this trope to the hilt in ''WesternAnimation/KingSizeCanary'', in which a bird, cat, dog, and mouse enlarge themselves by drinking Jumbo-Gro plant food. The cartoon ends with the cat and mouse standing over a basketball-sized Earth.
812* ''WesternAnimation/KipoAndTheAgeOfWonderbeasts'': Mega-Mutes are bigger than most buildings and are some of the few animals that still act like animals. They usually have quite a few extra appendages, like leg, ears and/or noses. [[spoiler:Towards the end of the first season it turns out Kipo is able to transform into a Mega-Jaguar due to her parents' genetic experiments. And halfway through season 2 the Mega-Monkey is revealed to be her mother suffering from ShapeshifterModeLock.]]
813* From ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'', after [[spoiler:fusing with Vaatu to become a Dark Avatar]], Unalaq grows to gigantic size, goes to Republic City, and starts wreaking havoc. Korra does the same thing, but she does this to fight against her [[EvilUncle corrupt uncle]] in a massive final showdown.
814* A couple of episodes of ''WesternAnimation/LaLinea'' has the titular character confronted by one, only its foot being visible next to the one-line protagonist!
815* In a take on "Jack and the Beanstalk", the ''[[WesternAnimation/DastardlyAndMuttleyInTheirFlyingMachines Magnificent Muttley]]'' episode "What's New, Old Bean?" has the canine facing a giant Dick Dastardly.
816* ''WesternAnimation/MenInBlackTheSeries'' had the humans enormous compared to a race of tiny aliens trying some nefarious plot to become large. One alien actually did, but became a 50-foot whatever; requiring the MIB to deploy their own 50-foot whatever as well.
817* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' has two of these kind of villains, both of which are classic: Adrien’s bodyguard gets akumatized into Gorizilla, (some sources call the episode “The Gorilla”) and little baby August gets akumatized into Gigantitan.
818* ''WesternAnimation/MuppetBabies1984'':
819** In one episode, the gang are pretending to have a magic lamp and take turns making wishes. Gonzo wishes he had a "great, big kiss from Piggy", but what he gets is a kiss from a ''great, big Piggy''.
820** In an earlier episode, Piggy is a giant dough monster attacking a city. Bunsen tries to stop her with his Beast Blaster, but Beaker gives him a ''yeast'' blaster by mistake, which makes her bigger still. They make Gonzo bigger to stop her, but the two just end up falling in love.
821* In the ''WesternAnimation/MuppetBabies2018'' episode, "Animal Kong", Animal gets upset when he can't play his drums during quiet time, and he becomes Animal Kong, a gigantic version of himself. It's up to the other babies to calm him down and try to get him back to his normal self.
822* In the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' episode "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E10SecretOfMyExcess Secret of My Excess]]", Spike undergoes an abnormal growth spurt when he gets greedy on his birthday and his draconic "hoard-building" instincts kick into overdrive. He ends up the size of a full-grown dragon before [[ResetButton finally being brought back to normal]].
823** He's also turned giant in the ''Sparkle World'' magazine story ''The Hero of Ponyville!'', in this case due to having brushed against a magic plant. As a giant baby dragon, he retains his usual appearance (read: the illustrations use resized stock art of regular Spike).
824** In "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E26TwilightsKingdomPart2 Twilight's Kingdom, Part 2]]", once Tirek gains Twilight's power, he grows to giant size.
825* In ''WesternAnimation/TheNewAdventuresOfSuperman'' episode "The Chimp Who Made It Big", the chimpanzee Toto mutates into the giant ape Titano after being exposed to the radiation released in a collision between a kryptonite meteor and a uranium asteroid.
826* Parodied in one episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheNewAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh''. Piglet is depressed about being so small, so the others make him think he has grown by tying boxes on his feet and putting binoculars backwards in front of his eyes. In another episode, Tigger tells a scary story where a giant Pooh scours the land for honey.
827* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'' has Marky becoming a giant from eating plant food.
828* In ''WesternAnimation/PacManAndTheGhostlyAdventures'', Dr. Buttocks creates some giant monsters to attack Pac-World. Pac counters with a power berry that transforms him into "Paczilla".
829* The aptly-named ''WesternAnimation/PetAlien'' episode "Attack of the 50 Foot Boy" involves the aliens making Tommy taller so he can [[YouMustBeThisTallToRide ride a fairground ride]]. Unfortunately for Tommy, he won't stop growing and eventually becomes taller than his own lighthouse.
830* On ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb,'' Candace uses a growth potion the boys made in order to grow an extra two inches; it makes her gigantic instead. The episode was aptly called "[[Recap/PhineasAndFerbAttackOfTheFiftyFootSister Attack of the 50-Foot Sister]]".
831* In the ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' episode "Tokyo Grows" Brain enlarges Pinky and himself so that Pinky can disguise himself as Gollyzilla (a parody of Godzilla) and Brain would defeat him in combat so he can be deemed a hero; things don't go as planned when the real Gollyzilla shows up.
832* ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocoyo}}'': Parodied in "Poczilla". Pocoyo and Pato find a miniature toy city and pretend to be giant monsters, unaware that they're endangering tiny civilians.
833* A 1960 ''ComicStrip/{{Popeye}}'' cartoon had Brutus concocting formula that makes Wimpy grow giant size. When Brutus fails to sell Wimpy to a circus for a sideshow, he leaves Wimpy with Popeye.
834* ''Franchise/ThePowerpuffGirls'':
835** The girls frequently fight giant monsters, often from a place called Monster Island (although they are allies with at least one of them, who, in "Major Competition", helps them expose the fraudulent hero Major Man).
836** Used as part of a plan by Mojo Jojo in "What's The Big Idea?". He made the girls grow, not himself.
837** Sedusa also turns huge in "Aspirations".
838** The fish balloon that destroys Tokyo Townsville in "Uh Oh Dynamo".
839** Twiggy the hamster in "Gettin' Twiggy With It", after getting mutated from a vat of toxic waste from Mitch flushing her.
840** Him has shown this power several times.
841** An episode of the [[WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls2016 2016 reboot]], "Save The Date", has Ms. Keane turn into a giant due to an accident involving Mojo Jojo's toxic waste. An ant is also transformed by the waste, and the girls and Ms. Keane have to fight it to save the city.
842* In the episode "The Faery Princess" of ''WesternAnimation/PrincessGwenevereAndTheJewelRiders'', the evil sorceress Lale Kale arrives in the land of little fairies and decided it's a perfect new kingdom of her to rule, so she seizes its king and to attempts to proclaim herself the new queen (however fails miserably).
843* The ''Literature/RainbowMagic'' movie has a giant snowman attack Rachel and Kirsty.
844* ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'':
845** In "The Plant From Bortron 7", Jet's Bortronian plant becomes enormous after it grows under the light of the Earth's Sun. It also becomes a monstrous Godzilla-like creature.

849%%** The titular monster from "Clammadon Rising".
850** In the episode "Grow-No-Mo!", Robotboy (desiring to age like a human) flicks a switch and ends up gradually growing as big as the moon.
851* Spoofed on ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' with "Attack of the Giant Midget!" The 'midget' in question is about 6'5" or so, and his 'attack' consists of doing regular tall guy stuff like riding a roller coaster, getting the cookie jar on top of the fridge, and playing basketball.
852* ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'':
853** One episode had Rocko's tooth mutate into a giant monster.
854** In another episode, Rocko wishes he were bigger, then dreams that he's become so big he bumps his head on the sun.
855* ''WesternAnimation/SheepInTheBigCity'' spoofed this with their "commercial" segments in between the story pieces. This sentence says it all: "Attack of the 50 Foot Creature", in other words, a monster made of 50 human feet (known in Europe as "The Approximately 17 Meter Tall Creature That Happens To Be Made Entirely Of Feet Movie")[[note]]17 Meters is 2 meters more than 50 feet.[[/note]]
856* ''WesternAnimation/SheZow'' foe Manny Ken is a gigantic [[MurderousMannequin animated shop mannequin]].
857* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
858** Homer turned into a gigantic, carnivorous blob as part of one Halloween episode. In the same episode, we see a 50-foot Lenny bemoaning that everyone's paying attention to Homer -- except for [[{{Invisibility}} Invisible Carl]].
859** Before that it was done in a Treehouse of Horror comic titled Sideshow Blob; Sideshow Bob become a rampaging blob monster after being injected with a serum.
860** In “Time and Punishment”, Bart and Lisa become giants after Homer kills a fish.
861** And their other Halloween ep, ''Attack of the 50 Foot Eyesores'', with local advertising icons run amuck.
862* A InUniverse movie trailer seen in one ''WesternAnimation/{{Slugterra}}'' episode advertises a movie titled ''Attack of the 50 foot Slug'', involving a gigantic Protoform slug attacking a town.
863* Hefty Smurf does Attack Of The 50 Apples Tall Whatever in ''WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs1981'' episode "The Magnifying Mixture". Also Snappy in "Little Big Smurf".
864* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'':
865** In the two-part episode "Pan-demic", the world is under attack by giant guinea pigs. Giant ''live-action'' guinea pigs. They are joined by guinea bees, guinea rats, and other guinea creatures (which are just guinea pigs in costumes).
866** Mecha-Streisanduh!
867** And Trapper-Keeper Cartman.
868** And Cthulhu.
869** Played for laughs with Scott the Dick in "Royal Pudding". At first, it appears to be played straight, but a change in the camera angle reveals that he's actually seven feet tall.
870* There are several ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episodes that feature this trope. In one episode Squidward becomes a giant after getting sprayed with plant fertilizer, and in another episode [=SpongeBob=] inadvertently becomes a giant [[spoiler:after shrinking everybody in Bikini Bottom]]. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, a giant (to them) Plankton is returning from his vacation only to find the inhabitants small enough]].
871* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'':
872** Most of the {{fusion|Dance}}s fall in this category. They're all taller than their component Gems, but some are only tall by human standards (like Garnet, Stevonnie, Rainbow Quartz, and Smoky Quartz), while some are just massive. Opal can carry Steven under her arm, Sugilite is the size of a building, Sardonyx is as tall as Sugilite but narrower, and Alexandrite and Malachite are straight Kaiju-size. [[Recap/StevenUniverseS4E2KnowYourFusion "Know Your Fusion"]] shows that Sardonyx has to squeeze herself to get into the temple door, and she can block it with her hand.
873*** The largest fusion yet seen, [[spoiler:Obsidian]], is about the size of [[spoiler:one of the Diamond Mecha's hands]], thus making her bigger than any of the Diamonds, and quite possibly more powerful. [[spoiler:She ''does'' have one of the Diamonds themselves as a component, after all.]]
874** This is taken [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]] with the Cluster, an enormous fusion comprised of billions and billions of gem shards, with a diameter comparable to the size of the Empire State Building. Except, that diameter is not the diameter of The Cluster itself, but of its ''[[HeartDrive gem]]''! Peridot reveals its actual size in [[Recap/StevenUniverseS2E22WhenItRains "When It Rains"]].
875--->'''Steven:''' Peridot, you're saying there's a giant mutant gem the size of the Earth under us ''right now''?!\
876'''Peridot:''' Oh no, when it forms it'll be much, much bigger than the Earth!
877** For non-Fusion examples, the Diamonds. Blue and Yellow Diamond are between 30 to 50 feet tall; at one point Yellow is shown holding two Pearls (who are about human-size) comfortably in her hand. White Diamond, who wasn't seen until near the end of season five, turned out to be even taller than that. [[spoiler:Pink Diamond averts this — she's only about twice as tall as Pearl.]]
878* Apache Chief from ''{{WesternAnimation/Superfriends}}''. And [[GiantWoman Giganta]], his arch-enemy. And, if you count ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'', Long Shadow from the Ultimen.
879** Also from ''Justice League Unlimited'', ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} once fought a giant fire-breathing turtle creature in Japan. (Its shock of red hair and the way it shrunk when defeated means it might have been a ShoutOut to Jimmy Olsen's [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] stint as "Giant Turtle Boy" as well as [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Bowser]] and/or Film/{{Gamera}}.)
880** Also from ''{{WesternAnimation/Superfriends}}'' is the episode "The Giants of Doom". Guess what happens to Bizarro, Sinestro, Captain Cold, and Toyman in that one.
881* In the ''WesternAnimation/SushiPack'' episode "A Very Big Deal", Ikura is shot by a malfunctioning shrink ray and grows to enormous size, fulfilling his [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor earlier wish]] to be bigger.
882* In the first ''{{WesternAnimation/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles|1987}} '' series, Krang became giant using a "molecular amplification unit". The Turtles [[FantasticVoyagePlot entered his body]] to disable the device, and return him to normal.
883** In the same show, exposure to a meteor from space turned April's nerdy work-mate Irma into a giant in the episode "Attack of the 50 Foot Irma".
884** How about when Donatello became huge and fought a giant ape?
885** In ''WesternAnimation/TurtlesForever'', [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003 the Utrom Shredder]], having applied Krang's technology to his own [[MobileSuitHuman exosuit]], does this in the final battle.
886* ''WesternAnimation/TheTick vs. Dinosaur Neil'', in which a paleontologist in a dinosaur costume turns into the real thing after mistaking prehistoric genetic material for pasta salad. One scientist who bears more than a slight resemblance to [[Film/DrStrangelove Dr. Strangelove]] wanted Niel to put on some pants. So he made a giant pair of pants and planned to have the army lure Neil to the pants so he could put them on. The pants caught on fire before anything could be done with them.
887** A later episode had the series' BigBad Chairface Chippendale using a pill to turn Neil back into a dinosaur on his wedding night.
888* This [[Recap/TinyToonAdventuresS1E64KACMETV episode]] of [[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures Tiny Toon Adventures]] has a giant Elmyra hugging a building.
889* There was also the ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'' episode "Attack of the 50 Ft. Mandy". Here, Mandy is subject to this, and Clover became also a {{giant|Woman}}ess to stop her.
890* ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'': Now granted, your average Cybertronian is generally around 20 feet tall to begin with, but some of the larger 'bots like Metroplex and Fortress Maximus made them look tiny by comparison. Taken [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]] with Primus and Unicron, who transform into ''planets.''
891* Happened once in ''WesternAnimation/{{Trollz}}''. Dragon vs. Fifty-Foot Kitty.
892* In "Frookie Sitting" from ''WesternAnimation/TrueAndTheRainbowKingdom'', the magical flower first turns the puppy Frookie into five Frookies. After this problem is fixed, it ends up working its magic again, this time making her into a giant dog.
893* The WesternAnimation/WoodyWoodpecker short ''Woody the Giant Killer''.
894* Eileen from ''WesternAnimation/WordGirl'' increases in size if she does not get what she wants, and she even grew taller than a skyscraper in the episode "The Birthday Girl".
895* There was an episode of ''WesternAnimation/WowWowWubbzy'' called "Attack of the 50-Foot Fleegle," featuring an animal called a fleegle that would grow in size when given candy.
