    • Both this monster and "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon" are based on the Chimaera, a mythical beast who had the head of a lion, goat and snake.

  • In the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime, this monster was depicted as having a head for each monster used in its Fusion Summon (e.g. six heads in its first appearance). It could also attack as many times (including direct attacks) as the amount of monsters used to play it; this card's OCG/TCG effect does not apply this to direct attacks.
