I'll probaby pass. Orb's main form in the show was his Tiga/Ultraman one, which is what I want most of all. Strange that they didn't make that one be the first Figuart.

I wonder how much we can thank Amazon for this. I mean, Tamashii wasn't particularly interested in modern Ultraman up to now, we had that poll some time ago where they asked for it, but seeing as those are the first figures who are both the same mold and one is an Amazon exclusive - I kinda think Amazon helped them out so they could have more initial usages for the mold and Tamashii decided to use that chance to test the waters by also making a regular Orb Origin for the retail market.
Or maybe Orb's popularity was simply so high and the poll told them enough to give this a try and they just used the opportunity to also deliver Amazon an exclusive. Anyways, whatever the reason behind the existence of these figures is, I’m really glad they are a thing. Loved watching Orb, so being able to get a Figuart is a wish come true. I’m not that bothered that they’re starting with the Origin form since that’s the true Orb anyways (and I really like the Orbcalibur), but I would also love to see more. I think Spacium Zeperion is bound to happen at some point since it’s very similar to Orb Origin, in fact I think only the shoulders and part of the chest are different. So that’s an easy retool if they want to use this mold again, and I’d be all for it. And then if those do well… please do Thunder Breastar and Jugglus Juggler. Pleeeeeeeaaaaaase. |

I don't mind Orb getting a figuart but some of us are still waiting for Ultraman X to get some love.

And I think if Orb goes well our chances of getting them aren't all too bad, especially since Daichi and X are still relevant through the newest movie. |

It's worth noting that Amazon Japan ships toys internationally now. So you might not need a middleman.
I'll definitely get Orb Origin because I want more modern Ultramans and I just want them to keep making these damn things. So I'll probably end up buying both of them. ... and yes, please give me a figure of X. Please? |

Man they both look incredible. Can't wait to get Orb Origin.
Just as well the First is going to be a pain/expensive to get, or I'd be tempted to pick him up too
