So this guy's design was taken from the planned MechaniKong for the 90's concept art.

At least according to Japanese Wikipedia. It's not surprising, because unused Toho kaiju designs were often modified for use in TV shows, and Bulgario certainly looks like how I would picture a Heisei Mechani-Kong.

In addition to this, it would seem that unused concept designs are sometimes shared between Toho and other affiliated film studios - It's thought that Dinozaur and Bogal are derived from Orga concepts that went unused.
