And another upcoming release has just been opened for order by Tamashii Nations! Arriving as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in January 2017 is the third releases in the Ultra Act X S.H. Figuarts crossover line, the Ultraman Manga Ace Suit!
The Ace Suit follows up on last years 2 versions of the titular Ultraman & this months release of Ultra Seven/Suit Ver 7.2. Seemingly learning from the mistakes of past releases the Ace suit comes with a wonderful number of accessories. 2 sets of hands, a replacement unmasked head, an alternate face for this head, and extra forearm parts for use with the included effect part!
Be sure to get in touch with your preferred middleman or Tamashii Web Exclusive service when orders open to secure one. You can find a list of some such sites here.

I don't know nothing about this but it a really cool looking figuart I will say that.
Never a big Ultraman fan, but these new manga suits are a-fucking-mazing!!!
Definitely looks like you'd get your money's worth.
Ultra-Act living on in some form (even if maybe in name only?) keeps my barely-on-life-support hopes alive that they may go back to the actual Ultra-Act line at some point, once the 50th anniversary Figuarts are done.
As for Ace, yeah the manga suits are really sharp. I'll need to track down Seven at some point and intend to get this one to go with the two different Ultramans I have.
He's certainly expensive, but at least here it looks like they're finally packing all the accessories in first time around rather than holding off and doing a "special ver" later down the line. I can dig that.
Will definitely preorder him when I have the chance.
The unmasked head looks a bit weird on the armored body, I think the first one did a better job as far as unmasked heads go, but as ZeoRangerV said, at least they deliver everything right away this time.
I never saw this particular Ultraman armor before but it looks really cool. I will not buy one since I don’t feel invested in the manga enough, but people who buy this figure and the other two will have a great display to look forward to.
Ooo, Ace is totally my favourite out of these redesigns.
