MegaHouse, a division of Bandai Namco Group, brings Ultraman Jack to their UA (Ultimate Article) Series of pre-painted realistic figures with built-in light and sound features in early 2027. Supervised and developed in collaboration with Tsuburaya Productions LSS (Light Sculpture Studio) and created at an impressive 40 cm scale, the figure faithfully recreates the intricate details and unique style of the suit used in the early episodes of the 1971-72 television series RETURN OF ULTRAMAN, which is now celebrating the 55th anniversary since its broadcast and continues to enjoy enduring popularity.

When Switch ON 1 is activated, the figure's eyes and Color Timer (blue) light up simultaneously with the famous Ulytaman transformation sound effect. Next, the familiar background music tracks “Ultraman’s Arrival” and “Ultraman Standing in the Sunset” play!

When switched to ON 2, a timer sound synchronized with the Color Timer (flashing red) pulses for about 20 seconds, followed by the sound effect for Ultraman Jack's Spacium Beam attack! Ultraman’s voice is also included.

By swapping out the optional arms, you can recreate two poses: the “Fighting Pose” and the “Spacium Beam.” The product also includes a left glove featuring the “Ultra Bracelet,” the signature weapon that first appeared in Episode 18!

Two types of base stickers (the series logo and Jack's Ultra Sign logo) are included. Please fully enjoy this supreme figure of RETURN OF ULTRAMAN, which set a milestone during the second kaiju boom of the ’70s.

Ultimate Article Return of Ultraman is now available for preorder in Japan from Premium Bandai and multiple retailers. Fans and collectors in North America can order the figure from Sideshow.com and other retailers specializing in Japanese toys and collectibles.

Check out the official video for a preview of the figure and its many features!
