Ordered a bunch to go with the black and white ones

Thank you Archivist once again!

I still vote they make you a "contributor" here as I get more news from you than anyone else on this site.

You are welcome! Glad I could help.
I like to try and shine a light on the lesser know collected figures.

Not really an "in scale" ultraman would be 8.5" (40m tall) - 11" (50m tall) depending on the form he is in but I like most figures to be about 4". I might track some down for size changing like Giant man.

Add my appreciation for the heads up on so many of these figures! They can be tough to find if you don't get them early.

I think your Ultraman size conversion may be off by inches (") and feet (')
I'm picking them up for sure. I can pretend they are the suit actors like the Microman Godzilla figures (though technically Microman is 1:1 scale).

Sorry that was a bit confusing.
For Ultraman, I read he was 40 meters and one reference at 50 meters so at 18th scale a figure would be 8.5 inches to 11 inches for an in-scale Ultraman depending on the reference used.

40 meters = 131.234 feet
50 meters = 164.042 feet

At 1/18th scale, Ultraman would be 7.29 feet to 9.11 feet! Ultraman is big!

[Ninjinister]

Yeah I didn't actually expect a real in-scale Ultraman... shoot. What I meant is that they'd be the same size as all of my figs and not, y'know... just bigger. I'd count even a 6" Ultraman as "in-scale" for my collecting needs.

Haha yeah your right. I mathed that real bad...

Some more Megaman 4inch Nel figures

Super Megaman and Cutman



Here are the other announced figures for this line so far.

[Ninjinister]

I've got .exe preordered but I'm considering canceling it because rent just jumped super high and $40 for one figure is nuts.

I'm afraid classic MM would be too big for this scale if he's 4". Rock's supposed to be short.

If you can find them on ebay, the 15th anniversary model kits from the 90s are perfect scale to Marvel 4'' figures.

Both the Megaman/Rockman 8 ones and the Megaman/Rockman X4/x5 ones.
I've been meaning to do some pictures with those. I'll try to do that tomorrow. Cut-Man from that line should scale well though, and Gutsman if they do one should too. Only Megaman was kinda short in comparison. He's supposed to be a kid while X and Zero were older looking models.

The Takara EXE figures are also moderately perfect scale to Marvel 4''. Though they are a little bit bigger head design-wise.

I think I still have a few of those I'll have to dig out to compare. The Megaman 8 model kits I keep in my display with my 4'' Samus figure, so those will be easy to do tomorrow for pics.

The next time those robots go up, please let us know! I've been trying to get my hands on 4 of them for what seems like ages now, and the second I was about to order them finally Saturday, they sold out. Like literally maybe 2 hours right before I went to order them(I'd been watching them like a hawk while waiting for funds to clear up to get them).

In the meantime while I wait tho, I decided to go ahead and get the Shodo Black and Shadowmoon. So not a total loss, but still slightly annoying. xD

That makes it twice now I've missed out on those robots by the same day I was going to order them! LOL!
It's all good, I'll get 4 of them eventually. Though I do have to admit the lawn furniture is still tempting.(Momotaros, Deneb, and Deadpool need it for happy happy beach time!) Hoping one of the future releases with them comes with a desk chair so that when Hasbro does an American Chavez figure I can have the infamouse "America hits Carol with a chair" scene in my display.

Platform shoes and pick your favorite ultraman for a costume and you could be Ultraman for your own collection. xD

Wow, loved these Kamen Rider Shodo secret figures!

Kamen Rider Back was a big deal here in Brazil in the 80's, and this is the wave I was more excited for (also, I got both waves 1 and 2 plus 2 more Shocker soldiers).

And this KR Stronger Charge Up version is G R E A T!

Comparison pic as promised. Though auto-focus and the lighting is acting all wonky, so will try to get better pics later. Can't find Zero either to compare. But he & Vile were made in these kits too along with Swordman, Tenguman and some others. They also did Vile's exosuit/the powered exosuit/ride armor you use in the games. Rather perfect scale to the Samus Aran 4'' figure too.


I should have Shodo Kamen Rider Black and Shadowmoon Monday. Will try to get pics of them up then.
Found the Epoch capsule toy robot on Ebay too, so should get pics of that up soon too. Can't wait to mess around with that one!

And Epoch makes a ton of 1:18th scale accessories too from tables to desks, folding chairs, beach chairs, weight sets, and more!

[theArchivist]

Those Megamen work perfectly. I'll have to try and find some.

Does Shadowmoon have two hands that can hold his sword?

I've been thinking about whether or not I should get a second one so he can have two swords, but there's no point in doing that if he doesn't have an extra left hand that can hold it.

The Megaman/Rockman kits should still be easy to find on Ebay mostly. They're old, but tons of them are still around. The only hard one to find is Duo.

They did them for Rockman 8, X4, x5 and I think x6. The Legends/Dash series too. All are Bandai. The X series ones are done like an exoskeleton, so you can swap armors. There's a box set that comes with a black/purple zero armor, a basic X armor, some random colors, and a full metallic upgraded armor. They also did a metallic armor RX and a Translucent one. Metallic and normal Zero, hyper armor zero, and a bunch more. Can usually still find a bunch on ebay besides Duo like I said. (He's the only one from the set I never got and was never able to find. Skipped the Ride Armor and Rush and the other bad guy they made. They never made a Sigma that I'm aware of either.)

For Classic Rockman 8, there's a metallic Rockman/megaman, Blues/Protoman and then normal colors for each too. They did Duo, Forte/Bass, Rockman/Megaman, Blues/Protoman, Rush, Tenguman, and Swordman. Not sure if they did anyone else other than those.

Can you link to a few? I'm not sure what I'd be looking for....

Here are box examples.
Bandai Rockman or Megaman Model Kits pops up mostly them, but the selection on ebay isn't that great. But variations of that can maybe find more. Or if you search by the character's name you want. These are from the 10th anniversary and 15th though. So a good decade+ old. Tenguman seems to be in high abundance online though. And there are some bagged versions of the "mega armor series" for Rockman X too.

They come with multiple arms. And in some like the Rockman pictured below, they have an extra 'big' canon that shoots little balls, but also still come with their standard character accurate mega buster too.

AWESOME! My wave is on its way, I can't wait. Nice to see there are 3 Blacks and 3 Moons.

[Snowflakian]

My Black and Shadowmoon arrived today. Sadly yeah, they only have one hand each that can hold stuff. So no dual wielding swords for them.

[Jay West]

I want that Black suited one eyed guy, but have never ordered from a Japanese site. Is it relatively easy?

They have an english page too, and the Shodo line is also on ebay.
It's relatively easy, prices are decent too. It's a great site.
