Our apologies for letting this one slip by during the last drop of magazine scans. But it looks like Bandai have been kind enough to make an official image drop to start the week off! First up is the just revealed Ultra-Act Ultraman Zoffy Mebius Special!

Many Ultra-Act collector’s will recall just how insanely rare Zoffy became in the last few years. Well Bandai is looking to rectify that situation with this Mebius Special Set version! Zoffy of course appeared on numerous ocassions through out the Ultraman Mebius series. This reissue appears to include jsut about anything you’d hope for as well.

A Tamashii Web Exclusive release for July, Ultra-Act Zoffy Mebius Special will retail for 5940 yen.

Joining the S.H. Figuarts Trychaser 2000 in as a mass release item in July will be the much anticipated Ultraman figure from the currently ongoing manga sequel to the original 1966 series. This figure is a particularly special release as it is a collaboration between both the Ultra-Act and S.H. Figuarts lines.

Price details and accessories are yet to be confirmed, so stay tuned to Tokunation.com over the coming week for more information!

This title nearly fell off the radar, with Bandai Namco Games having released a sequel is coming down the pipe line.

Gundam: 

Unicorn
F91
00 Raiser

Kamen Rider: 

Black
Fourze
Wizard

Ultraman:
Leo
Tiga
Ginga

Kamen RIder Black RX and the 00 Quanta are also in the game, interestingly enough those two will be treated as form changes according to the trailer. Lost Heroes 2 will be released on the Nintendo 3DS console in February 15th 2015, a premium version is also available for purchase.

It’s the return of the king here at TokuNation! Today we’re proud to present a long awaited new gallery, Ultra-Act Ultraman King!

Ultraman King, the ancient elder of the Ultra race, has guarded his people for generations operating in secret. Sometimes he intervenes or trains young heroes, but he’s always watchful. And this legendary hero has at long last joined his brothers in the Ultra-Act line! A recent Tamashii Web Exclusive, Ultraman King includes his own personal cape/mantle, his signature King Hammer, the Great Protector armor, and several sets of additional hands. A unique Ultra-Act release, King has some of the more snazzy duds for an Ultra, and sports the even more rare facial hair. His hammer also puts him in the small group of toku heroes that call it their weapon of choice as well. An interesting and offbeat release to say the least, for many Ultraman King has been a dream come true for the line.

Read on with our full review and check out a complete 40 image gallery of this unique addition to the Ultra-Act line after the jump. And don’t forget to share your thoughts on Ultra-Act Ultraman King, good or bad, in this thread as well. A post in this gallery thread will qualify you for entry in our Toku Toy Box giveaway! Specifically you could win our Monolithic Monsters Prize Pack! Full prize pack details and official rules for Toku Toy Box are posted here. We only about a week left to go with this giveaway but we still have more in store for you. Good luck to all!
