Kamagidon (カマギドン,   Kamagidon) is a sickle kaiju created by Toho that first appeared in episode 1 of the 1979 tokusatsu kaiju Megaloman, titled "Burn Up! Flaming Superman."

Design

Kamagidon's upper half somewhat resembles an insect or arachnid. Its head is adorned with multiple jagged spines, short mandibles, and a single blue eye. Instead of hands, Kamagidon possesses large electrically conductive sickles at the ends of its appendages. Kamagidon's upper half is attached a Stegosaurus-like body which has a large Triceratops-like head, with Baragon-like ears. Similar to fellow Megaloman kaiju Goran, Kamagidon was featured in early publicity photos with a slightly different design, possessing less horns and sporting 3-fingered hands instead of sickles, holding the weapons between his claws.
