* [[Healing Factor]]: It wasn't used too overtly in the TV show (likely related to the level of 70's special effects they were budgeted for), but Amazon heals ''much'' faster than a normal human, such that he can get into fistfights with clawed Beastmen without transforming.

* [[Henshin Hero]]: Although unlike the other Riders, his body is mystically augmented rather than mechanically - Amazon is actually ''biological'', compared to his technological Rider brethren. (This brings up an interesting point about the word "Kaizou-Ningen", usually translated as "Cyborg" in English. "Kaizou" means to modify, in the sense of remodeling and improvement, and does not necessarily indicate doing so with artificial enhancements. Thus Amazon is in fact a "Kaizou-Ningen" like the other Riders, just not in a way that translates smoothly.)

* [[Hero With Bad Publicity]]: Whenever bad things happen, the actual villains pull a [[Villain Exit Stage Left]], and a wild, scantily-clad [[Hulk Speak|Hulk Speaker]] is the only person remaining at the scene, it sometimes doesn't go well for our hero. His good name is usually restored by the end of the episode... ''for the time being.''

* [[High-Pressure Blood]]: Most monsters end up cut open by Amazon and it normally results in a massive amount of blood spurting from their wounds.

* [[Hulk Speak]]: For the first dozen episodes or so before he gradually learns Japanese. This led to much communication problems during certain episodes.
