I've been waiting on Powered too.

Other image of Imitation / Fake / Nise Ultraman Renewal:

As far as Ultra beings in the show go though don't forget about Faust and Mephisto. Nexus as a series still has a ways to go unfortunately...forms and Ultra beings.

Oh definitely. I'd kill for Dark Faust and both Dark Mephisto & Mephisto Zwei.

New additions to the collection (Zero arrived yesterday):

Finally got a chance to open up my Zero tonight. Another solid release, and packed with accessories. I haven't tried the Double Flasher yet, so no idea if it's easy to peg in or not to Zero or another figure (I don't have the previous Leo to try it with and won't get one until the renewal version is released). The only random QC issue of sorts is that the back piece that is swapped out for the Tamashii stand-compatible piece comes pretty loose. It's still snug enough that if I shake Leo, it stays in, but I have to watch where I hold him because I can knock it out pretty easily with my fingers without realizing it. The back pieces on all other Ultra-Acts I own are usually a pain in the ass to remove, where this one is closer to a polar opposite.

(Random bit, but I love the box, with all that blue.)

Has any US stores release Ultra-Act Ultraman Zero (Renewal) yet? I notice Image Anime still has the figure down for pre-order.

Since it just came out in Japan last month, no I don't believe so. Bluefin releases typically come between a few weeks-to-a month or so after their Japanese release.

I just bought Ultraman Taro on Mandarke. He will be my first Ultra Act and I'm looking forward to getting him soon in a few days.
