It announces a "large collection of Z figures" (so I would awesome Beta Smash and maybe Delta Rise Claw), Tiga from Ultraman Tiga (probably only the already revealed Seihou on display) and a large display celebrating the 55th anniversary.

Wouldn't Saikou Shadow still technically count for that, then? Since it's only appeared in like, 12 episodes, if you include X-Swordman Wonderful and X-Swordman Powerful since they're basically Saikou Shadow with special parts. Then again, I counted the number of episodes Saikou X-Swordman and it turns out it's appeared in 11 episodes, just one short of Saikou Shadow (+ X-Swordman parts).

But I guess Primitive Dragon is much more likelier to be the Event Exclusive with its 5 episode appearances.

It also, in general, tends to be the main character of the show in some sense.

Not really related to the above topic, but how's the limb change gimmick on Ultraman X/Gomora Armor? Does it suffer the same breakage as SS limb changes?

You don’t have to exchange any limbs, the claws use the wrist pegs, they open up on hinges and then close around the forearms after plugged in.

The armor change gimmick works beautifully on this figure IMO.

Definitely recommended, even among Ultraman Figuarts which are all pretty great, this is one of the best.

SHF Kamen Rider Eden.
7150 yen
goes up for pre-order tomorrow.
Comes with HellRising (closed) key and Thousand Jacker with timer effect part.

I'll admit, the hell rising key is a neat touch

While we're at it, Saikou's page is also up -- and he's confirmed to come with a normal Kin no Buki Ridebook to replicate his base form. Amazingly, it's actually painted!
