Melba. It appeared alongside Golza in the first episode of Ultraman Tiga.

Ohh, that's so cool. Makes me kinda sad we don't see Bandai doing kaijins for Kamen Rider anymore. Dezast, Legeiel, and Dodo would be so good...

Thanks to En-chan I now know why the Saber figuarts are taller than every other Rider figure so far.

When WAS the last kaijin we got for Kamen Rider, actually? I think N-Daguva-Zeba in the renewal line, maybe?

Either that or one of the Hearts in Drive

I think the last Kamen Rider kaijin done in SHF form was the Crow Amazon?

Not an Ultraman type of guy but I do find it nice that they're still making figures for the monsters; I think it helps that the monsters in Ultraman are memorable and recurring in multiple series, making them feel like they deserve figures of their own.

Kaiju are definitely more of a feature in Ultraman than they usually are in Kamen Rider and the like. One way I'd describe much of the Ultraman franchise is an effort to condense Kaiju movies into a 20-minute episode

Does Momotaros count? Kinda, right?

Otherwise there's Ankh (the hand), the Figuarts Zero Hokuto Crows, Crow Amazon, Mole Amazon, Super Heart Roidmude and then N-Daguva-Zeba. Not a whole lot in the last few years.

Desast would be perfect though, and who knows, maybe we're getting him, Saber Figuarts isn’t done yet.

I could definitely see them feeling Falchion is enough, maybe bundled with one of Dezast's swords. Never say never though

So the Figuarts Melba image seems to be in the same box as the Figuarts SS Mebius "leak" from earlier this year.
