As part of the merchandise push for the new Ultra Galaxy Fight New Generation Heroes series, Tamashii Nations has partnered with Tsuburaya Productions to release two new Ultraman S.H. Figuarts!
Joining the long tradition of the black repaint, two more evil ultra doppelgangers will debut in Ultra Galaxy Fight. Ultraman X Darkness & Ultraman Geed Darkness! These gorgeous red black and purple repaints of the heroic ultras were revealed in tandem with this new Youtube series this morning, though no official release details have been announced at this point. Tamashii has confirmed they will be commercialized so it’s only a matter of time before we find out the release pattern for these two. We’ll update this story when that information is released.
MoarCrossovers says
A new miniseries streaming exclusively on the Ultraman Official YouTube channel that serves as an intermediate between Ultraman R/B The Movie and Ultraman Taiga. Interestingly, the show will be broadcast in both English and Japanese at the same time.

My guess it'll be an excuse plot to get all the New Generation Ultras in one place in order to explain the beginning of Taiga's series. Though personally I was ready to just accept 'there is some trouble in space and they all happened to know about it'.
Salaryman Zero says
My body is ready. No such thing as too much Ultraman content.
Here's a short intro from Sakamato-san for added context:

Ah gotta love it when they turn Pachinko Exclusive villains into Stage Show Villains and then finally giving them true love by giving them an actual physical appearance in a series/mini-series.
UltraDarkKiller was too good a design to just be relegated to pachinko and stage shows.
FreshToku says
Also the concept of a Dark Geed is inherently funny because Geed himself is already an 'Anti-Belial'.
Salaryman Zero says
Anyway, here's hoping we get fansubs for the R/B movie before this drops so we can watch the film first.
Den-O says
Obviously the best thing about a new series like this, is more evil repaints. And in this case Tamashii is making Figuarts! No release details yet, but they have confirmed that Ultraman X Darkness & Ultraman Geed Darkness will see release!
Kiwami says
These two look mighty fine, the red & black deco with the purple accents is beautiful.
If they are retail I could see myself picking them up, if they are exclusive I'll pass.
A worldwide release mini-series is super cool, but please let it be subtitled. If they are dubbed I will lose interest instantly. I have seen a few officially dubbed Ultraman things and they are horrible.

While we're at it, let's fancast Ultramen if they were to receive english voice actors.
FerrousMaelstrom says
I'd also prefer subs, but I'll tolerate the dubs because official release on Youtube is pretty good. I assume they think there will be more audience for dubs than subs?
