King of Tokyo

In the first edition, does a Monster enter an empty Tokyo only if a claw is still showing after its final roll?

The first-edition rulebook gives the first Monster with an Attack the entry, and players confirm that only the final roll counts.

Yes. In the first edition a Monster enters only if at least one claw is showing once its rolls are over. Rerolled dice don't count, and damage from cards does not put a Monster in Tokyo. Extra claws add nothing, because nobody is there to hit.
