The Magma Lizards are a species of daikaiju-sized fire-breathing reptiles which live in a volcanic cave system at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.
Biology[]
They are huge quadrupedal lizards with red skin, white spikes on their back and a single horn on the head. Despite their subterranean environment, their eyes are relatively very large and bright yellow. They have forked tongues, and the ability to breathe fire, although they need to periodically drink lava in order to "recharge".
Appearances[]
- The Godzilla Power Hour - s02e11 - "Pacific Peril" (1979)
Notes[]
- This is a relatively rare case among daikaiju, in which an entire population of the species is seen, rather than a single specimen.
- They also stand out among most kaiju in their reluctance to fight against Godzilla, as they prefer to retreat when they see him.
