History

Mirrorman

Gorgosaurus

Sent by an Invader saucer firing a beam into it a volcanic fault, Gorgosaurus burst from the ground to find the Jumbo Phoenix in front of him. The monster did not move from its spot for the hours that followed. The next day Mirrorman went looking for Jumbo Phoenix and accidentally alerted Gorgosaurus. The giants quickly clashed with the hero avoiding Gorgosaurus's flames while the monster clawed away at Mirrorman. Soon after, Gorgosaurus was joined by his brother, Mayasaurus, who started spewing radioactive gas. After a Mirror Knife severed his cranial horn, Gorgosaurus retreated underground. Mirrorman dragged Gorgosaurus out of the ground to throw him around and eventually beheaded with the Mirror Kick.

Trivia
  • His suit would later be modified into Oil Drinker.
  • Gorgosaurus reuses the Zumbolar roar with an echo effect.

Gorgosaurus β

Gorgosaurus β was the brother of the original. He first emerged from the ground near an Invader saucer with their hostage, a boy named Yoshio, witnessing the monster's appearance. Shortly after Mirrorman showed up to fight Pair-Mons King β did Gorgosaurus β join in the fight. The monster briefly chased Yoshio and crushed the car he was in beneath his right foot. Shortly into the fight Mirrorman used the Miracle Kick to decapitate both monsters.

Trivia
  • Gorgosaurus β reuses a Gabora roar.

Ultraman Taro

Gorgosaurus

Gorgosaurus II

Kotaro Higashi detected a monster coming towards Earth, so he transformed into Ultraman Taro and launched a counter attack to an icy planet to fight the beast to prevent it from destroying the Earth. During their fight, Gorgosaurus managed to gain the upper hand against the Ultra by turning himself invisible. It worked for a short period of time, but then Taro used his Eye Beam to expose the monster and then he destroyed the saurian beast by decapitating him with a Beam Shuriken before he can turn himself invisible again.

While Taro was victorious, the fight had resulted in him losing much of his energy, and he sustained an injury to his hand during the battle as well. Initially, Taro planned to journey to the Land of Light to treat his injured hand, but decided against it, returning to Earth to assist ZAT in facing another monster that had already arrived on Earth. From a Japanese Nursery Song Monster General

Trivia

  • The Gorgosaurus II suit was not reused from Mirrorman but actually a suit used during attractions.
  • In Malaysian subtitles, Gorgosaurus II is misidentified as Gongoros.
  • In this series his roars are reused from Dangar.
