 Re: One of my favorite Baltans (M1)
Baltan's are among my favorites too. Robotic and arthropodic at the same time.

 Re: One of my favorite Baltans (M1)
Nice one. Is that a custom or from a metallic series?

 Re: One of my favorite Baltans (M1)
I always wanted this Marmit GID Baltan that came as a set with the Marmit GID Ultraman, but never saw it sold separately anywhere (pic by Geo): http://www.flickr.com/photos/geographics/423120163/

 Re: One of my favorite Baltans (M1)
As a kid, watching ultraman on TV, Baltan certainly made the biggest impression on me. I would walk around with my arms bent up doing the laugh.

I see Baltan's been hitting the gym (or else he just got the He-man treatment)!

 Re: One of my favorite Baltans (M1)
US Toys Baltan is also pretty sweet. US Toys in general just makes some really awesome sculpts.

 Re: One of my favorite Baltans (M1)
I finally managed to track down this guy after only seeing a grainy image on him online one time. It's a Marmit version (2004 I think), but I don't know much about it other than that, as they sure don't seem to come up very often. I was hooked as soon as I saw him. I really love the texture of the sculpt, and it is totally awesome that his elbows are articulated. Combine that with a kickass paint scheme and you've got the favourite Baltan of my collection.  There was a GID version of this sculpt re-released in 2006 as a limited run for the Okamoto Taro Fine Arts Museum.
