Name[]
In official books featuring concept art of the creature, it is given the designation ofGigamoth C Type (ギガモスCタイプ, Gigamosu Shī Taipu?). The name "Archaeopteryx" is an unofficial name given to the creature due to its lack of resemblance to the unmade kaijuGigamoth and closer resemblance to the extinct dinosaur genusArchaeopteryx.
History[]
Godzilla vs. Mechani-Kong[]
Not much is known about the role it would have had or how long it would have lasted in its debut film, but early script ideas for the film involved a normal bird mutating into the monster from the radiation that leaked off of the newMechani-Kong. It was meant to fight Godzilla in Las Vegas.

- Rodan's original design was that of anArchaeopteryx before Toho settled on using aPteranodon.
