I hope they give us a switch-out left hand. I think the apple looks out-of-place.

Nice Ultraman figure John!

Once nice thing about the Ultraman franchise:  

Instead of constantly rebooting the original hero character, they create a new member of the Ultra-Brothers for each succeeding generation of fans to call their own.

Thank You Bill, and I totally agree about not rebooting that franchise. When I picked up that figure there where quite a different Ultramen to choose from. Something else I picked up in Nagoya, Condor Joe from Gatchaman.

Really emphasizes how much that costume looks like a basketball: the Amazing Spalding-Man.

I was hoping that was just a bad picture of the Sideshow Scarlet Witch, but unfortunately not.  As JB said, the face is much too harsh for Wanda.  Shame, I like everything else about the statue.

Hey, nice Taito figure, John! 

Nagoya, eh?  The G-Tour 2 I was on last year had stopover in Nagoya, and after visiting the Castle and Port Entertainment Complex, we had a chance for shopping.

Was that from the Mandarake or the Joshin Kid's Land store?

Funny that you posted that pic, John. I got one just like it in the mail a
few days ago. I like the size. It will fit nicely on my self at work. The
packaging is nice and I will probably leave it in because it stands so
well.
