@zerotoinfinity: Maybe because this zord did fight an Ultraman expy, with I-grec/Heroica ?
Uh, maybe? I haven't seen much of Abaranger, but I do know there is an Ultraman knock-off in it.
It's more of a visual easter egg than anything, from what I've seen, at least. I didn't know about this until I browsed the Ultraman wiki. And read a few news sources, that's pretty much it.
