BIO:
Proto-Moguera (モゲラ) is a Mysterian mecha that first appeared in the 1957 Toho film, The Mysterians .
One of the weapons of the Mysterian invaders, Moguera was unleashed in Japan , where it destroyed a village by triggering severe earthquakes while underground. Moguera soon surfaced and began rampaging through the countryside before the JSDF blew up a bridge as the machine was crossing it, destroying Moguera. The Mysterians would deploy a second Moguera to defend their dome when the Earth Defense Force began attacking it with Markalite Cannons . The second Moguera accidentally burrowed to close to a Markalite Cannon, which toppled onto it and destroyed it. The Showa Moguera was the inspiration behind the G-Force mecha M.O.G.U.E.R.A. from Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla , and has been featured in some non-film media since its debut, such as video games and the television show Godzilla Island .
Moguera appeared in the TV show Godzilla Island , and was known as Proto-Moguera (プロトモゲラ Puroto Mogera) so that it wouldn't be mistaken for the other Moguera that appeared in Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla . Proto-Moguera was ultimately stolen by Zagres after Black Mechagodzilla was captured by G-Guard. Proto-Moguera was then sent retreating into space with Zagres after Torema piloted the superior Mechagodzilla against it.
