Post Ultraman question
I've seen it posted here, but don't remember where, but I'm looking for the Ultraman figure on the Cross.

Does anyone know if it's on sale yet??

Thank you!!

The new movie should have a good crop of cross toys! Think it's a homage to : ultra man Ace ep 13 (thanks to help from wiki!)
The Four Ultra Brothers are crucified on the planet Golgota by the Yapool. The Yapool send all five fake Ultra Signs to get them to gather at Golgota, where they fine crosses with their names written on them. The temperature then drops precipitously, and they begin losing power. The Four give Ace their remaining power to go back to Earth, to defend it from CHOHJUH Baraba. Ace protests, not wanting to abandon his brothers, but Ultraman slaps him to his senses, saying they will. After Ace leaves, the other four get sucked onto the crosses. However, Ace can't fight Baraba effectively, because the Yapools taunt him with images of his brothers stuck on the cross, threatening to finish them off. Meanwhile, Yapool then introduces Ace Killer, who sucks the Four Ultra Brothers of their Specium (Ultraman), Emerium (Ultra Seven), and M87 (Zoffy) energies, as well as the Ultra Bracelet (Ultraman "Jack"). Ace Killer uses these to destroy the Ace Robot for practice as the brothers look on helplessly. The upper brass at TAC send Hokuto to Golgota with a bomb to destroy the entire planet (and the Four Ultra Brothers with it), but Hokuto changes to Ace, destroys the bomb, gets energy from his Brothers to create the Space Q to defeat Ace Killer, frees his brothers, return to Earth, and destroy Baraba.

Crucified Ultraman figures have appeared a lot over the history of the Ultraman mythos...

I'm having trouble finding the pic now, but there was a recent candy toy that depicted an Ultraseven episode where he's crucified.

Incidentally, the Tsuburayas are Catholic, so I guess they didn't have an issue with that imagery in their shows. Maybe they even encouraged it.

Are those candy toys?

There are references to Christianity hidden in the original Ultraman series, like mention of the God of Noah in the Antlar episode.

I heard the original plot called for Hayata to collect 2 of each monster and build a giant space-ark.

can you imagine 2 Baltans and 2 Ragons in the same room together?

DEFINITELY! I felt bad for him, because it looks like part of his hand got broken, and he just got the ol' tin foil treatment.

He is on a random roof in CA at Kimono my House. Weirdest toy store ever. You have to walk through an office complex, up fire stairs, and across a roof to get to it!

Thanks to Bryan Flynn's directions & hand drawn map, we found it! Such a random location though!

ps: Flynn: WE MADE THE TURN!
