These were revealed at Tamashii Nations last month but are now also on display at Tokyo Comic Con. Since the pictures from Tamashii Nations were tiny I couldn’t see it, but these seem to be retooled. I was expecting straight up repaints but they do look different from the 2015 releases.
Maybe someone who owns the first releases can shed some more light on this. I kinda dig the Ultraman armor with the red thighs. Anyways, no release date yet but I expect to see more of these once the anime premiers on Netflix. https://hobby.dengeki.com/event/673479/ |

I believe one of the main issues with the original 2015 Ultraman release was that while it looked good, the articulation on the lower body was hindered? I could be wrong.

Animation Ultraman and Ultraseven are now fully revealed - and there’s a lot to unpack here.
First of all, both appear to be retail releases, with Ultraman being released in August and Ultraseven in September. Both cost 6000¥ each. Now to the interesting bits: They do seem to be based on the manga versions which were Ultra Act x Figuarts crossovers, as their size seems to be the same - around 160mm, bigger than usual Figuarts. However, these are not mere repaints. They are in fact retooled - to better fit the designs of the Netflix show, and they feature a shiny new coat of paint and entirely new effect pieces. https://tamashii.jp/special/ultraman/ |
