History[]
Ultraman Cosmos[]
Generation I[]
Neldorand I
A natural monster wandering the countryside, Neldorand was spotted by EYES seemingly wounded due to his right horn being snapped off. When EYES used an energy net to try and move the creature, a monster hunter tried to kill Neldorand with a rocket launcher, deactivating the energy net and nearly knocking the monster out. As EYES was medically treating Neldorand, the monster hunter returned to finish what he started. As he and Musashi fought each other, Chaos Organism arrived on the scene and turned Neldorand into Chaos Neldorand. With EYES unable to harm the creature, Chaos Neldorand simply fought back and proved to be too much for them to handle. Once both EYES jet fighters were knocked out of the sky by fireballs, Musashi tried to use flares to distract Chaos Neldorand. The monster hunter also used his special rocket launcher to fight the monster on for Chaos Neldorand to launch fireballs near him, badly hurting him. Running out of options, Musashi quickly transformed into Ultraman Cosmos. Not long into the battle, Cosmos went from Luna Mode to Corona Mode, allowing to him easily take on Chaos Neldorand. After Cosmos' Color Timer went off, he quickly transformed into Eclipse Mode and easily took Chaos Neldorand with little trouble. With a single shot of Cosmium Beam, Chaos Neldorand was destroyed, and he found himself in his original form. Once turned back to normal, Neldorand continued to roam the countryside until he fully recovered. He was sent to Kaburaya Islands later for protection.
Generation II[]
Neldorand II
Another Neldorand, Neldorand II with the same appearance just like the one from Kaburaya Islands and resurfaces due to the impact of Cosmos' previous battle. While it was wondering around the countryside when Chaos Ultraman converted him into Chaos Neldorand II , but thanks to EYES with a test vaccine against Chaos Organism he turned back to normal. Like the first one, he too was brought to Kaburaya Islands.
Trivia[]
- Nelodorand II, along with Chaos Ultraman, was referenced by the Spark Dolls Troupe in New Ultraman Retsuden episode 37.
- Neldorand II's suit would later be recycled and modified to create the Space Beast Lizarias.
Neldorand Mechalator[]
A Neldorand was captured by Alien Nowar and modified into a living weapon. After it was released, EYES attempted to subdue the creature, but their anesthesia proved ineffective. Scans of Neldorand Mechalator revealed that even more modifications had been made to its body than Taildas Mechalator, and it was hypothesized that one of the devices likely made Neldorand Mechalator immune to anesthesia. With no other choice, Captain Harumitsu ordered the team to use lethal force to bring down the cyborg monster; however, Musashi, in a desperate bid to save Neldorand’s life, transformed into Cosmos. He then assumed Eclipse Mode and fired the Cosmium Beam, which splits into five lasers, to remove the implants. Succeeding, the monster and Ultra rejoiced, but Neldorand suddenly died of shock. The monster’s tragic death upset the EYES members, and Ultraman Cosmos took Neldorand’s body into space for burial.
Trivia[]
- According to the "Definitive Edition Ultraman Cosmos Illustrated Super Encyclopedia" (published by Kodansha), Neldorand Mechalator is docile until it receives orders. It also possesses energy tanks twice the size of those in Taildas Mechalator, as well as a mechanized heart that will keep the monster alive as long as it is functioning.
- Neldorand Mechalator's roars are reused from Golza's.
