Comments:
  • Why was Frankenstein with the villains in the Moon Palace? He was destroyed last week.
  • Titanus the Carrierzord is based on a Brachiosaurus. Ironically, Tommy will get the farmiliar looking Brachiozord in Dino Thunder.
  • I wonder why there wasn't a Dragon in the shrine. There are only the original five Dinosaurs, yet there only seem to be four weapons.
