Monster Discussion: Cybersaur

Personally, Cybersaur’s fine. Not much more than a Mechagodzilla stand in, but he could be worse. Does its job in the story fine enough, just not really memorable.

Cybersaur looks cool, but he's really nothing too special power-wise that really helps him stand out aside from the Sonic Dispenser. (wonder if someone who was working on the 98 animated series saw this and reused it for Cyber-Godzilla) Still he has a nice gold motif!

Liked the robot. Although I do wished it did a little more, and Cybersaur had been given more time, pages to show off what the machine can really do. Also some here may remember that Cybersaur was mentioned in some of the scuttlebutt that it was to make its live-action debut for Toho's 1999 Godzilla revival. If it had been true I'd wonder what the U.S. Mechagodzilla would look like had itshown up to combat Godzilla ,and his rumored nemesis in that flick. Bio-Godzilla. Although when I read that on ye old Barry 's Temple of Godzilla website. It sounded hokey. But what if ?

He's great, I dig the weird black visor, they're like giant shades. I especially love the gold color scheme. While his abilities are pretty stock standard, the golden look alone helps set him apart from many other mecha.

While BioGodzilla has been proven to be a real concept, Cybersaur's inclusion was never a part of it.

Perhaps someone confused BioGodzilla with the upcoming American "Godzilla" movie and the comics before humming up the works? Or maybe it was trolling taken as gospel?

Either way, the proposal was permanently put on ice when Tanaka passed away and Tomiyama declined to develop it.

Shame, I would have loved to seen a BioGodzilla and Ghost Godzilla.
