[edit] Trivia
- Gabara,the Gargantuas,Tieborasu,Tsunzaurasu,Totosaurus,Akumon,and Tsurazuu later appeared in Ike! Greenman.
- Gabara's suit is green instead of blue. He was also green in Greenman.
- Some of the Toho suits were in really bad shape. The Gargantuas suits appear to be rotting (especially Gaira), despite the fact that both suits were repainted. They are also wearing new masks (with wigs).
- The Gorosaurus costume is in such poor shape that the inner support seems to be deterorating. It makes Gorosaurus' torso look like its caving in.
