Terranoid is a man-made Ultraman that appeared in the series Ultraman Dyna. He appeared in episode 49. He was later morphed into Zelganoid. Terranoid Subtitle : Man-Made Ultraman Zeglanoid Subtitle : Super Morphed Beast. TPC shogun Tunbo decided to restart the frozen plan F (a plan that includes creating Ultraman at Man's will). He then commanded the leader of the Black Busters Guts Shadow Squad to capture Shin Asuka and bring him to Mars after discovering his secret identity. However, Ryo had followed Asuka and was also held hostage just as Superior Iruma (former GUTS captain) and Captian Hibiki finds out about the crime. Asuka was then placed into a "life-force extracting device" to extract his light energy and place it into Terranoid's statue.
Once his energy was spent, Asuka collapsed and Terranoid was brought to life. As soon as Terranoid awakened, Gransphere attacked the TPC Mars Base and Terranoid was called into action. Terranoid then display the terranoid solgent ray and soon destroyed most of the spheres. Unforunatly, due to his careless spending of energy, his color timer soon began to blink and he soon fell. because there are still a few more spheres left, the Spheres morphed him into his next form: Zeglanoid.
The creation of the morphing between Terranoid and the space spheres Gransphere, Zelganoid was a monster driven by the spheres and attacked the TPC Mars Base. As soon as Terranoid fell, Gransphere morphed with him into the terrifying Zelganoid. Zelganoid then began to wreak havoc upon his creators. Asuka, almost killing himself in the process, transformed into Dyna to fight the monster. But due to his previous drain of light energy, his color timer quickly flashed. Just then, Super GUTS arrived and also attacked the beast. Watching the battle from underground is Ryo and the Shogun Tunbo. Ryo then headed towards the "life-force extracting device" to lock herself in and sacrafice her energy so Asuka can live when he un-transforms.
A sudden quake allowed Tunbo to throw Ryo away from the device and lock himself in. He then switched the machine on to max frequency and turned it on. In a flash of yellow light, the machine exploded, and Tunbo became energy, which was then transfered into Dyna. With renewed strength, Dyna change into Strong Type and threw Zelganoid all the way to the otherside of the battlefield.
Dyna then changed back into Flash Type and attacked Zelganoid with his Solgent Ray. However, Zelganoid was undeterred and began to walk toward the giant of light. Once again, Dyna unleashed his Solgent Ray and began to assault the beast's head. Soon, Zeglanoid exploded, and the base was safe. However, Ultraman Dyna has also then vanished with Zeglanoid after the battle.
