PROTOMORPH from the eighties?

Investigating the protomorph mystery, we should look at this image from the years 1984-85. PIONEER featured the designs of H.R. Giger’s creatures in a series of Japanese magazine ads for their Zone home entertainment system in the eighties. (Giger created a video as well.)

Does this ad show a protomorph? Beyond doubt, these are not xenomorph teeth. What do you think?

'A monster designed by H.R. Giger starred in a 1985 Japanese commercial for the Zone home entertainment system by Pioneer. The biomechanical beast -- which was also featured in ads that ran at the same time -- appears to be based on illustrations Giger made for underground filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky's screen adaptation of "Dune," which never made it to production.'

The commercial was produced by Giger.

I never considered that the mountain could move but I would have never guessed a hole would open up under the dirt and release a juggernaut ship in Prometheus.
