Return of Ultraman Gets a 40cm Sound and Light Showcase

Fifty-five years after Return of Ultraman first arrived on television, Ultraman Jack returns as a commanding 40cm collectible packed with the sounds and illumination that defined the classic series. MegaHouse is adding the new figure to its Ultimate Article range for fans of the 1971 series.

Supervised by Tsuburaya Productions’ LSS (Light Sculpture Studio) sculpting department, the figure recreates Ultraman Jack’s appearance from the early episodes. The sculpt captures the proportions of his helmet and body, along with the distinctive suit patterns, lines and wrinkles reproduced with detailed texturing.

Standing approximately 40cm tall, the figure includes a swappable left arm equipped with the Ultra Bracelet weapon as seen in Episode 18. The base also comes with two sticker designs featuring the series logo and Ultraman’s signature, giving collectors options for customising the display.

The figure incorporates sound and light effects through a switch built into the base. ON1 activates a transformation sound effect while the eyes and Color Timer illuminate in yellow and blue, followed by the series’ background music.

Switching to ON2 changes the Color Timer to flashing red and activates a pulsating timer sound for approximately 20 seconds before concluding with the Spacium Beam sound effect.
