Created by special effects
guru Trimble, this animatronic device was the
lead prop on the Devil Dinosaur movie. Unfortunately,
Ben Grimm, the Thing, mistook the device for
an actual dinosaur upon first sight, and attacked
the beast in an effort to protect Sharon
Ventur and her friends. With a single blow,
Ben managed to decimate the jaw of the robot,
leaving its creator furious over the damage.
Eventually, the machine was repaired and set
back into action on the set, while the Thing
decided to stay put in his trailer
to avoid further hold ups to production. Unfortunately,
just as filming started, the mutated Godzilla
emerged from the sea to bare witness to this
dinosaur-like creature that he had once met before.
However, Trimble, controlling his creation, ordered
the robot to bite Godzilla in the leg. This caused
for retaliation on the part of the
King of the Monsters, who quickly ripped apart
the smaller machine with his powerful jaws. With
the prop dismantled, Godzilla returned to the
sea, never to be seen again.
