Galberos

is a cerberus-like Space Beast. It appeared in episodes 6, 17-18, and 35 of Ultraman Nexus.
Subtitle: 
==Conception==
=== Etymology ===
Galberos' Japanese name is a combination of "garou" (a Japanese term for a hungry wolf) and the Japanese pronunciation of "Cerberus".
===Design===
Galberos' motif is that of Cerberus, a figure in Greek mythology who was said to be a giant, three-headed dog who guarded the gates to the Underworld.
The designer said that the design was originally to be a representation of a dog's head being split vertically down with it's spinal cord exposed and extended outwards. This design would also have had no arms.
==History==
===Ultraman Nexus===
Shortly after Jun Himeya fused with Ultraman Nexus for the first time, the monster Galberos began rampaging in a field. Ultraman Nexus soon arrived, transforming into his Junis form and creating a Meta Field around them. Luckily for Nexus, Galberos was no match for Nexus's speed and was soon destroyed by Nexus's Core Impulse attack.
Later, after Nosferu was defeated, Dark Mephisto revived Galberos to attack the Night Raiders while Jun confronted Shinya Mizorogi, Dark Mephisto's human form. With no other choice, Jun transformed into Ultraman Nexus to face Galberos inside a Meta Field as Mizorogi escaped. The battle initially favored Nexus, especially with the Night Raiders assisting. However, the tide turned when Galberos used hypnosis to make the Night Raiders attack Nexus instead. Taking advantage of the confusion, Galberos inflicted a severe internal wound on Nexus's left arm. Fortunately, the Night Raiders eventually broke free from the hypnosis and resumed their assault on the space beast alongside Nexus. Before they could finish Galberos, Dark Mephisto arrived and teleported both himself and Galberos to safety.
Dark Mephisto later summoned Galberos again after creating a dark field to fight the Night Raiders. Despite the pain from his arm wound, Jun transformed into Ultraman Nexus once more. Mizorogi protected Galberos with a force field, but Night Raider Nagi managed to shoot Mizorogi in the back, breaking his concentration. Without Mizorogi's protection, the dark field vanished, and Ultraman Nexus quickly destroyed Galberos with his Over-Ray Schtrom attack.
Months later, when Ren Senjyu became Nexus's host, Galberos was revived once more by The Unknown Hand to assist Mega Flash. Facing two formidable adversaries, Nexus was initially overpowered. However, he persevered. After the Night Raiders used the Ultimate Vanisher to destroy Mega Flash, Nexus defeated Galberos with the Schtrom Sword, ending the threat once and for all. 
====Trivia ====
*Galberos is said to have a strong vitality due to his dog heads containing a high proportion of residual cells from Beast the One.
*Interestingly, Galberos has the same number of heads (three) as the number of times he was destroyed in the series.
*Galberos' roars are modified Golza's roars mixed with Garaon's Angry Face sounds and, when injured, Galberos makes the shriek of the Toho Monster, Ebirah.
* Galberos has appeared more times than any other Ultraman Nexus Kaiju.
*The idea of a cerberus-inspired Kaiju had been around since the draft for Project "Yellow Eyes", a concept which eventually evolved into the Ultra N Project.
*The Galberos suit was later modified into Izmael.
*His first appearance in Ultraman Nexus was referenced by Hikaru Raido and Ultraman Taro in New Ultraman Retsuden episode 18 to compare Ultraman Ginga's Ginga Slash with Ultraman Nexus's Core Impulse.
===Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle: Never Ending Odyssey===
A Galberos belonged to an Alien Nackle. He was first used (unseen) killing an Arstron that belonged to an Alien Zelan. Later on, Nackle summons him again to create hypnotic illusions of the monster Zetton to fight Rei and his Gomora. Whenever it seemed Zetton was destroyed, he would "return" to fight and tire out both Rei and Gomora into becoming weak. Once the duo was weakened enough, Galberos revealed himself and attacked the exhausted Gomora. Suddenly pushed to their limits, Reimon became overcome with Reiblood energy and rage, transforming him into Burst Mode Reimon, Gomora too gained the form Reionic Burst Gomora. Now with uncontrolled power, Gomora vaporized Galberos instantly and his master was short to follow.
====Trivia==== 
*The Galberos suit from Ultraman Nexus was reused for Galberos's appearance in the series, with newly modified wolf-like heads.
*During the opening credits to the series, Galberos is seen battling Bemstar, even though neither monster fought or met each other in the series.
*In episode 9, Galberos was mentioned when Alien Zarab was thinking of who was the Reionics in the ZAP SPACY's crew.
===Mega Monster Battle Ultra Galaxy: The Movie===
Galberos was revived as one of Ultraman Belial's 100 Monster Army. He teamed up with Sadola, Alien Reflect, Vakishim, Hoe, and Tyrant to take down Litra. Galberos was then called back along with the other surviving monsters, when Reimon and Gomora went beserk, until Ultraman Zero showed up and then Galberos teamed up with the remaining monsters to take him down. Galberos was then seen as seen right after Red King was destroyed by Zero and was destroyed shortly after Zero hit him and got killed with a kick in the chest. 
====Trivia====
*The Galberos suit from Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle: Never Ending Odyssey was reused for Galberos's appearance in the film.
* Galberos is one of the monsters that makes up Belyudra's left arm.
===Ultra Zero Fight===
Galberos reappeared in episodes 1, 3, and 5 of the miniseries, Ultra Zero Fight as , as a member of the "The Four Beast Warriors of Hell".
In this short series, Galberos was one of the many monsters revived by Alien Bat (along with Red King, Bemstar, and Gan-Q,) to battle against Ultraman Zero. Shortly after Ultraman Zero destroyed EX Red King in Strong-Corona form, Galberos hypnotizes the Ultra into fighting against ghostly illusions of his newly acquired Strong-Corona and Luna-Miracle forms. While after having some mild difficulty at first due to the illusions being fazed by all of Zero's attacks, Zero managed to fight through the illusions and as a result, Galberos was killed after Ultraman Zero sliced his heads open with the Zero Sluggers.
====Trivia====
*The Galberos suit from Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle: Never Ending Odyssey was reused for Galberos's appearance in the miniseries.
=== Ultraman Ginga===
Galberos appeared in episode 7 of Ultraman Ginga as , a of the original variant.http://ultraman.b-boys.jp/ultra-ginga/ultra_monster500/page03.php
Dark Galberos was transformed into a Spark Doll by Dark Lugiel along with all monsters and Ultramen. His host is Go Osato, a professional boxer who was forced to resign after a gambling scandal. He agreed to a wrestling match against Black King, and fought fairly until Ultraman Ginga was summoned. Then he created duplicates to trick Ginga, but he created his own to confuse the confuser. Ginga then used Ginga Fireball to transform Dark Galberos back into a Spark Doll. 
It is likely that Dark Galberos returned to space in his original form after Ultraman Ginga defeated Dark Lugiel.
====Trivia====
* In the wrestling match, Ultraman Taro introduced Dark Galberos as the Feral Fangs of Space.
*The Galberos suit from Ultra Zero Fight was reused for Dark Galberos's appearance in the series, only repainted black.
*Dark Galberos' appearance was made for the sole purpose to ensure that the viewers would not complain over the frequent use of older monster suits in the Ultraman Series. Because of this, Dark Galberos' abilities were simply the same as the original, to the point that its own Spark Doll would emit its original name instead of Dark Galberos.
==Data==
==Spark Doll ==
Dark Galberos became a Spark Doll in the conclusion of the Dark Spark War due to the Dark Spark's powers. His Spark Doll was kept in Dark Lugiel's collection, and given to Alien Nackle to give to evil-hearted humans and seed chaos.
After Dark Lugiel's defeat, Dark Galberos' Spark Doll is likely to have reverted back into its original form and departed Earth to return home.

Galberos appears in this game as an enemy on Nexus Mode and later a playable character. To obtain Galberos, the player must defeat it on Nexus Mode. 
==Merchandise==
Galberos was released twice by Bandai, once as a 6 inch figure and again as a Spark Doll. The regular figure was very accurate to the show, but had a little too much blue on the heads. It featured 4 points of articulation. The Spark Doll was black and blue, representing Dark Galberos from Ultraman Ginga. This figure is also very accurate, but the dog heads do not have teeth on one side. It featured 2 points of articulation and is 4 inches tall. All in all, both are very good figures.
