"It's as thick as a Coke can!"
Sure it is. As thick as a 70%-scale, otherwise-perfect-replica Coke can, maybe.
With a variety of innocent household objects, recreated somewhat smaller or larger than normal, trick photography would be within reach of everyman.
Who said it was a bad thing to
have props of various sizes?By simply swapping sets of objects, suddenly your "lizard" can go from slightly-taller-than-a-house to squashing entire blocks of Tokyo in a single footfall!
Less for the same?

Widely known to exist. Movies already (well, not quite as often any more) happily use props of different sizes, and shoppers who know where to look can find such props. At best this is a "WIBNI movie props were widely available." However, odd-sized items are already pretty widely available as as collectibles and as toys. |

Coke is an especially common example: Coke has produced coke cans and bottles of various sizes, filled with soda, as cigarette lights, etc. |

I read this as "shuriken household objects." Now
that would be fun in a domestic dispute. |

And of course there's dollhouse props... |

Mini-Tokyo will have to be made out of
gelatin, or something equally flimsy, since the
lizard's weight scales as the cube of it's height. |

So,
maybe you should amend that to \\squashing entire
blocks of San Francisco <link>\\ |
