However, future production teams mistook the intentional black coloring for lighting effects and consequently, going forward from Zoffy's first reappearance in Ultraman Ace, the color of his fin is silver and has been that way ever since. Finally, the fin on his head was painted black. To differentiate him from the original Ultraman, more lines were added to Zoffy's body, and the protrusions on his chest and shoulders, the Star Marks and Ultra Breastars, were put on.
There was little time or money to design a new character other than Zetton, the feature monster of that episode, so the crew took Ultraman's A Type suit, which had been previously used by Imitation Ultraman, and was given a newly-crafted C Type mask. Designīy the time the final episode of Ultraman was being produced, the show's budget was running dry. This misinformation would end up reused intentionally in Shin Ultraman, resulting in the creation of that movie's version of Zoffy. This mistake is said to have happened because of an error on Tsuburaya Productions' part, as they were the ones who had given the materials to the magazine publishers, but the truth of the whole case has been lost to time. His name was also written as Alien Zōffy (宇宙人ゾーフィ Uchūjin Zōfi), and the English translation was reportedly "Sourfy". Notoriously in the August 1967 Special Issue 30 Great Monsters March (1967年８月号 特集 30大怪獣大行進, August 1967 Special Issue 30 Great Monsters March) published in the Bokura (ぼくら, Bokura) magazine published by Kodansha, Zoffy's role was confused for Alien Zetton's, with the magazine stating that he controlled Zetton and was weak against the SSSP's Super Gun. Despite that, the name (ゾフィー Zofī) could clearly be heard in the recordings, and that has been the character's name ever since, with the printed notation beginning to follow in suit. Zoffy's name is derived from the German anglicization of the Greek name Σοφια (Sophia) (ソピアー Sopiā), which translates to "wisdom", and was originally written as (ゾフィ Zofi) in original scripts, which carried over to Ultraman Ace and Ultraman Taro. Zoffy's debut also led to the mentioning of the Inter Galactic Defense Force, which was further developed in future entries of the franchise. However, the producers also wanted a way for the SSSP to be the ones defeating Zetton in the end, and they had to accomplish all of this within a single episode's runtime, and thus Zoffy was introduced. Zoffy was initially created as a way for Ultraman to return back to the Land of Light after his defeat by Zetton. 3.27 Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad.3.26 Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Absolute Conspiracy cont.3.25 Ultra Galaxy Fight: New Generation Heroes.
