Ultra-Act
Ultra-Act is a fully-articulated six-inch toyline focused exclusively on characters from Ultraman, and is the forlorn cousin toyline to the juggernaut that is S.H. Figuarts. Unfortunately, this is not without good reason. A weak and maligned start in the form of the original Ultraman figure and similarly poor figures kept the line from reaching its full potential until recently. This was most notable with this month's release of Ultraman Gaia V2, possibly the single best humanoid in the line to-date.

Ultra-Act is quite possibly one of my favorite lines.
|
While I love the Ultra Act line, there are just way too many version of Tiga, or Tiga-like designs right now.

It just seems that the recent releases are all various forms of Tiga or just other Ultraman with Tiga-like motifs (because I didn't watch Tiga, I'm not sure if they are all his forms or just others that look like him) I want characters like Ultraman Father, mother, grandpa, GD74, Taro, etc.

I'm loving the Ultra-Act line! Glad there is a discussion forum for these on here.

I need to backtrack some of the figures. |
I only have 1 Ultra-Act so far, GlenFire. I plan on getting the rest of the Zero team, as they are the only designs in Ultra Man that have really appealed to me.

Wish there were more kaiju. I've seen there's another version of Baltan coming... do we know of any kaiju beyond that?
|
Ultra-Act's upcoming releases, both slated for May - Zoffy and his secret alter-ego Andro Melos!

Yeah only one I have so far is Glenfire. Really want Jean-Bot and Mirror Knight to go with him, but they're so expensive domestically, and those two havent hit the HLJ sales yet.
|
Is there any news about the Ultraman Hikari that was shown awhile back?

Got Jeanbot in the mail monday, he joins Glenfire of my only two intact Ultra-Acts.
http://i.imgur.com/FytQn.jpg http://i.imgur.com/xrna6.jpg Heroic, mighty, robotic and possibly french. http://i.imgur.com/wR9F1.jpg 100% on fire and absolutely loves it. Also placed an order for Mirror Knight and Belial on Mandarake earlier today (as well as SHF Shin Rider 2) hoping Mirror Knight is in stock, as he's the main reason I placed the order. http://i.imgur.com/ERlS4.jpg Also, am I crazy, or is it really hard to get this guy to hang on to his flame staves? |
It's strange that they aren't doing Red King yet. Not only is he one of those classic Ultra-Kaiju, but I would think his design would make it extra easy to conceal all that articulation.
|
Dang those Jeanbot pictures. He's next on my list to get!
|
I really want Mirror Knight, but for some reason, I can't justify it.
I love his design, I just feel like I could get another Figuarts with that money, you know? |
Nothing about Ultraman really appeals to me.. apart from jean-bot. He looks incredibly badass and is just epic robot-ified ;) Been thinking of getting him and displaying him with my SHF riders just as misc. item, but that has now change to a i will definitely get him after the pictures suribot posted.

I got Glenfire, Zero, Jean Bot soon, so all I need is Mirror Knight
|
Man I still need Jean Bot and Mirror Knight too. :(
You know with these characters that homage other Tsuburaya heroes and Gridman coming out I'm hoping to see the original Mirrorman and Mirrorman Reflex show up in this line at some point. |
I'm getting back into the line, but I want to track down some of the older Ultra-Act figures that I'm missing before I get into the newer stuff, especially Ultraseven.
I didn't see any on Ebay when I checked. Does anybody know what he currently is going for? |
|
I really like the designs on the Ultraman Zero characters, especially Belial and Glenfire. I really want to pick some of them up, but it's kinda against my rule of buying merch from stuff I haven't seen. But it's really tempting to break my rule with these guys...
|
Dude, your rule is easily sated by watching one movie. I'd suggest you watch the previous movie first only because it's even better and introduces Zero himself, but there you go, one evening max.
|
isnt there like a thrid movie coming out?

Is there an Ultra-Act checklist handy?

All it's missing are the exclusives: Darclops Zero, Imit Ultraman, Astra, and Golza. |
