This first draft included several monsters that would appear in the final film, such as Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah, Rodan, Baragon, Varan, Kumonga, and Manda.
Jiraiya (in toad form) sounds like Rodan, Orochimaru (in serpent form) sounds like Godzilla and Gaira, Dojin Hiki (in eagle form) sounds like Mothra, and Tsunade's giant spider made a creaky noise somewhat similar to Ebirah.
The monsters are based on popular movie monsters such as The Blob, Mothra, and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, and Epyx was able to secure licensing for Godzilla.
