We don't know that for a certainty. It would appear so, but has there been an official statement from Tamashii? If so, I would like to see it.

A new Ultraman line just started. Ultra Act is dead.
This hasn't been confirmed. While it does appear to be that way, we don't know for sure. If anything, I'd say Tamashii is gonna see how these Ultraman SHFAs do before making a final decision on UA.
I will explain slowly why you are wrong.

Like with D-arts, Ultra Act may ultimately get absorbed into figuarts. But hey, if that means we start getting villains again, I'm all in.

Hopefully they're only making figures for Ultraman '66. I don't want my 2 years and 10 figures to go down the drain just because Tamashii got greedy again.

What do you mean "down the drain?" Those years and the figures you bought wont suddenly stop existing just because of a line being consolidated.

That's about how many UAs I own, a bit more actually. I'm not bothered by the possible merger at all. Not when there's a chance of getting more baddies.

What bothers me more than anything is the inconsistency in size. Yes, the SHFiguarts is better scaled with SHMonsterarts, but come on! I've spent hundreds of dollars and have almost every single figure from Ultra-Act. Would they intend to redo all of them again? That would upset me greatly.

Congratulations. You've constructed the most perfectly wrong post ever seen on TK.

Saying "They're not going anywhere" would be like telling people to get over not getting any new vinyls or MonsterArts since the older ones still exist.

I'd be telling them the same thing. I can understand your displeasure the first time, but consistently whinging on and on about this is pathetic. Lines get canceled. It happens. Accept it.

You posted on a public forum. I mean, it's kind of the point for people to respond.

Nice box! :shock:
This is probably the last of its' kind in these kind colorful boxes.

I'll miss getting UA figures in the mail almost every month from now on. Was a hardcore collector since day one... :cry:

You finally got your wish. Good for you! I remember you saying how much you wanted this guy...probably almost as bad as I want the Dyna Miracle and Strong Type combo. I should be getting mine in the mail pretty soon. I can't wait!

I concur. Down the drain? Really? :eh:

We still have the Manga Ultraman Special Ver. & Manga Ultraseven coming, bur those are already crossover releases (ULTRA-ACT x S.H.Figuarts), so basically yes, Phoenix Brave is for now the last pure ULTRA-ACT release.
