Tiga!! It's been a long-time coming, but he looks beautiful... I'm gonna try not to greedily right away go 'dyna when' and instead be glad that this icon of icons is getting the figuart treatment! (RIP to anyone who was hoping 80 would be next though)

I mean, judging by the release order they've gone in for non-new gen SHFs; Dyna should not be far off at all!

Nah, 80's hype was only as far as UGF:TAC so not disappointed at all. *writes ONORE TSUBURAYA on blackboard like it was detention while dressed up as Narutaki*

Ooh, I don't own any Ultraman figures but seeing that Tiga, he looks good! He also looked familiar so I did some digging and realized I used to watch some Ultraman episodes on a VHS my parents got from somewhere (dubbed in Cantonese too...lol) and it was Tiga! That Halloween episode was one of the memorable episodes I've seen. I might try and snag this as my first Ultraman figure if he doesn't sell out too fast (which I have a feeling he might).

Yeah... that.

I honestly dread retail releases nowadays. Every single pre-order is a giant pain in the butt. Even if I do manage to get an order in its up to an hour of refreshing, getting error messages, waiting, refreshing again - it's way too stressful.

Tiga is very popular, he's the first Ultraman Seihou and its the anniversary. Knowing Tamashii they'll also put up a Metal Build Gundam at the same time, so AmiAmi's servers will melt faster than snow upon the surface of the sun.

It's just not very fun anymore seeing a great looking figure revealed only to question myself if I'm even going to be able to order it.
