Instead I'd buy into Bandai realizing the demand for the Ultra Brothers has been too high and bumping up production runs to keep up with the demand instead, with Taro as the newest brother benefiting the most. He's still in-stock, by the way!

That was my thought... personally, I imagine that these high prices on the secondary market (like we were discussing with Ultraseven) for the Ultra Brothers has not gone unnoticed by Bandai. I mean, Bandai is not a company that likes to leave money on the table, and if a larger investment in the production run of Taro means they will sell more units, and make more money, I think they would do it. And Taro is a good candidate for it, as he has had a higher profile than some of the other Brothers in recent years due to his role in the films as Zero's trainer.

Bandai shouldn't have a ton of Figuarts reissues weighing production slots down after June since the SHF 5th anniversary promotion won't be going on then, and with Ultraman and the mantle already in June, it's my hope that we see other brothers reissued in Ultra-Act after that. Zoffy and Zetton in July would be a perfect pair...

OMG... Zoffy and Z-Ton in the same month. How perfect would that be?! Man, Baltan, why didn't I think of that?

I'd still rather have a reissue or new version of Seven than Zoffy, but either one would be welcome thanks to the premium prices they command right now.

Let me post a question to the thread: what other Ultra Kaiju would you like to see as Ultra-Acts? Personally, I would really like a Jamila, because he's such a great monster, but I think we'd be well served to have a few others as well, such as Tyrant, Chandora, or Dorako.

I'd LOVE to get a Woo in this scale as well, but he would have to have the real rooted fur, and I don't see that happening!
