This is supposed to be the sequel of Lastikman (2003), which topped the 2003 Metro Manila Film Festival. Unfortunately, the movie producers didn't pursue the plan after the heirs of Lastikam creator Mars Ravelo demanded 1.8 million pesos (around US$32,727 that time) for the sequel. In Lastikman (2003), the heirs only demanded 130,000 pesos (US$2,363) but Vic Sotto gave 500,000 pesos (US$9,090).
The costume of Fantastic Man was designed and made by the special effects team of T.A.P.E. Productions boss Tony Tuviera. While the costume of Diabolica was the idea of actor Michael V.
Fantastic Man costume's color was Purple/Violet and Gold/Yellow, represents Holiday season for the Philippines. Violet for puto-bumbong (Filipino native food) and in Christmas wreath violet/purple candle means loyalty to God. While yellow for bibingka or rice cake (Filipino Christmas food). Another interpretation was the color Purple represents justice while Gold/Yellow stands for power according to 1872 Mardi Gras by the King of Carnival, Rex.
Ara Mina's enemy character was named Diabolica same as her role/name in the movie Super Ranger Kids (1997).
