With a budget of 50 million Deutsche Mark (about $27,000,000), this was the most expensive film ever produced in Germany at the time.

A life-sized prop of Falkor resides at the Bavaria Filmpark Munich, Germany. It is a popular spot for fans, especially because they can climb his back and take photos with him.

The makeup team on the movie tried to paint Noah Hathaway green, just as Atreyu is in the book. "It wasn't believable. I looked like fungi!" Hathaway said.

At the time of its release it was the most expensive film produced outside the United States and the Soviet Union.

Falkor is actually a 43-foot long motorized creature with 6,000 plastic scales and pink feather-fur. His head is three feet tall and long and has a long tongue in the mouth.
