In "Destroy All Monsters", Baragon was supposed to attack Paris for the film, but the Baragon suit was unavailable. Baragon was replaced with Gorosaurus for this scene, but was still blamed for the attack. Gorosaurus was also given Baragon's special burrowing ability and his signature roar to further confuse viewers. Baragon was also supposed to be used as a guard for the Kilaak base, but it was not shown on screen while doing this, possibly for the same reason above. Baragon's head was either lost or damaged, as a new head was constructed for the publicity photos of "Destroy All Monsters", with a more white-ish hue on the ears and sideways facing eyes. This head was recreated in XPlus's "Destroy All Monsters" line. Later, in 1971, the inner fiberglass skull of Baragon was used as a base for the flying form of Hedorah.
