^ I don't own any of these, but I'm not too fond of Baltan II's design. Perhaps others here share that sentiment.

I can recommend the UA Zamsher, as long as you can get it for a decent price. I think the original SRP is somewhere around $50 US, but I got mine from HLJ during a sale, at 40% off, so it came in at just under $30 US. Not your usual kaiju, to be sure, but it's super-articulated, like the Ultras, & the detailing/armor is VERY nice. There is an obvious samurai aesthetic. He looks pretty killer, facing down my Mebius & Dark Tiga Ultras!

Jean Killer is from the latest Ultraman Gaiden called: KILLER THE BEATSTAR. It leads into Ultraman Saga kinda like how the Darclops Zero Gaiden did for Revenge of Belial.

Also, I really want that Gridman Ultra Act figure.

Over on Kaiju Collector there are pics of what appears to be an Ultra Act Baltan I and Kanegon. Are these known to be coming? I haven't seen any mention of them around here...

Those were announced at last year's Tamashii Nations. They will come alongside Apatee and Metron Seijin (technically Ace Killer was also in the monsters enclousure...but he doesn't really count).

Arrrrrgh..... I want a Hyper Zetton figure but I'm afraid to buy the vinyl because I just friggin' know they're gonna make an Ultra Act figure of him. And its gonna be gorgeous, and super articulated and perfect.

@Poe- I'm personally very excited about Baltan I and I may even get the translucent variant.

I've got the vinyl, and it's nothing real special. Articulation at waist, "wings", and arms. His tail's molded into his back (yes, he has a tail) and he falls over ALL. THE. TIME.

Well thanks! You just saved me a purchase. Definitely waiting for an Ultra Act then.

Can we back up a second? It's a $15 hollow vinyl figure. What more articulation do you expect? And the balance issues can be easily fixed by taking a blow dryer to the feet and repositioning them just a little bit. Always worked for me when my Ultraman figures wouldn't stand up. There's no guarantee that they'll be a Ultra Act Hyper Zetton figure. Why not just buy the vinyl in case there isn't?

I can't find him anywhere for anything less than 21 dollars + shipping (around $31 overall). I know it's not certain we'll get an Ultra Act, but unless I can get him a bit cheaper I don't feel like he's worth it. Thanks for the insight guys....

Probably still getting Gubira (Who's available now, btw).

Good luck finding him cheaper (as in, you wont, seeing as he's supposedly a limited time movie exclusive).

In the meantime, he could buy other figures he's certain he wants instead of spending money he feels on the fence about...?
