@ Gojira Prime
Glad to post them. I knew you all would really like seeing them. Yeah Mebius does look better this time around, but I don't think I will focus on him as a priority figure to get. That Zamshaa I had pre-ordered, and was thinking maybe I could bypass him, but after seeing these new pics I really like the figure and character. Yeah I am just waiting till December. I have Seven and Eleking pre-ordered, and I think Eleking is going to be my second favorite Ultra-Act figure right behind the Hayata Ultraman. I know I will like Zero a lot when I get him, but I don't think I have a passion for Zero like the Hayata Ultraman. My Original Ultra figure is still doing pretty good. The only sometimes looseness I get is with the feet or one leg shifts a bit, but otherwise the figure has been fine. I didn't have any of the mid section torso separations (thankfully) like some others complained about. I hope it never happens. I do want to order another original Ultra for a spare on hand.
I am waiting on the original Baltan II this month as well. It will ship with my Revoltech Maser Cannon when it does. I wondered what the tiny Ultraman was myself besides that larger Mebius. I think they threw in some odd figures with that group. I believe there is a much larger Mebius figure in there too, that is larger than the other Ultra-Acts. You have to see the thumbnail for the city pic, where the angle of the camera shot was in another direction.
One figure that interests me is the Magma Seijin. It seems there are some changeable heads. As you notice his standing on the ground figure has one hand and then the jousting dagger like arm, and if you notice, his hair is gold. In the "leaping" pic, his hair is silver, both his arms have weapons with the left arm being some sort of hook weapon. So the faces maybe change along with the arms. I am interested in the Magman Seijin figure.

What don't you like about the Ultramen? Well the only thing I could say is a bit "off" or different from my looking at them, is that they are slimmer and not as large (mass wise) as the regular Bandai Ultramen that only have the arms and waist articulation. The new resculpts on those regular figures look nice and do resemble the movie or tv show counterparts more closely than the first releases. If those had articulation on the level with the Ultra-Acts, then we could have some powerfully awesome figures, but I don't mind the Ultra-Acts. I especially love the work they did on the original Ultraman. I know there were some flaws some people had experienced, but I just am glad to have that figure.

I suppose they released the original maybe after some asked why didn't they have the first one available too. I guess there is some strong interest in this line. I wouldn't be surprised if they re-released the original Ultraman with the face masks option to switch heads. Like the first suit A can be used in addition to the regular suit B and C look. I hope Bandai is paying attention to the fans, and maybe will do all the Ultras. I would like to get several Ultra Acts. I bet Ultraman King would be nice. Maybe he gets a cape that is detachable. HAHA! I am still hoping for Ultraman Powered as an Ultra-Act. The body design of his tv show suit would fit all the cuts and separation points nicely in this figure line, and would actually look great.
I can hear really well and I am STRONGER than ever!
I DID!
