S.H. Figuarts Ultimate Ageis/Ultraman Zero Armor option parts set


Earlier in the week I received my S.H. Figuarts Ultimate Ageis/Ultraman Zero Armor option parts set. I was busy with work and doing other reviews, but I finally got around to checking these out. They turned out to be pretty cool option parts.



Ultimate Aegis is a set of armor created by Ultraman Noa.




My initial thought was that they may be a bit of a hassle to attach to the Ultras. They ended up being fairly easily to swap out and put on them. The only issue I had was with the large piece (Final Ultimate Zero) that Ultraman Zero holds. I was having trouble getting his arm peg into the fist (it’s attached to the piece). Then I realized that I had on his forearm with his bracelet, so I swapped out the regular forearm without the bracelet and it went in easily.



For the ultimate Zero Sword, each hand piece comes with its own fists, a red (for X) and blue (for Zero). The top of the fist has a peg that attaches to the piece, and then you attach it onto the hand peg. It also seems to work for other Ultra figures as well, minus the different colored fist (most of my others have silver or black hands).


The chest pieces can also be placed on other Ultras, though they wouldn’t stick on as securely as they’re designed for Zero and X and come with extras to ensure they attach to those guys well. But for display purposes, the other Ultras can sport them (or any other 1:12 figures as well).




The chest pieces attach together, 2 separate pieces for the front and back. You have to remove the color timers for both Ultras, the back piece for X and the shoulder parts for Zero and replace them with an extra set. All of that was fairly easy, the directions were simple to follow.




These are nice additions to my Ultraman Zero and X figures. X already has his EX Gomora fist, and he also has another option parts set coming out later as well. This set was fairly inexpensive and is really nice and easy to put on.




If you own S.H. Figuarts Ultraman Zero and/or X, then I do recommend getting this set, to give them some extra weapons to do battle with. A cool little extra that will enhance your Ultra figures.

S.H. MonsterArts King Kong '21

The next May pre-order to arrive is S.H. MonsterArts King Kong from the Godzilla vs. Kong film. I was psyched to get a highly articulated Kong from Tamashii Nations, and the great ape is finally here. Kong is a little shorter than Godzilla (just like in the film). The details of the sculpt are all well done. Tamashii Nations did a good job capturing his look well, from his hair covered body to a few scars on his chest. His faces, including his eyes and teeth on the open mouth head, as well as his axe, are all well painted. The only issue is that they seemed to have gone with a glossy finish, so he seems too shiny, especially on his face and chest. A duller matte shade would've suited him better. At least it would've kept him from looking like he over-moisturized. As for his articulation, he's quite flexible. His head is on a ball joint, ball jointed neck as well, ball jointed shoulders and thighs, upper arm cut, single jointed elbows and knees that go in further than 90 deg...

Julie Darling (1983) / Them aka Hellmaster (1992)

From the YouTube channel 42nd Street Films Grindhouse, I watched this twisted thriller about a young girl with an unnatural and creepy fixation with her father, and her attempts to get rid of anyone who threatens to take away his attention. Julie has a strained relationship with her mother, causing fights and arguments with her. She seems to be disturbingly attached to her father Harold (Anthony Franciosa), who also seems to have a strained relationship with his wife, but appears clueless about his daughter’s creepy fixation with him. One day while he’s away, the mother is attacked and killed by a delivery guy. Julie, armed with a gun, watches the entire thing from upstairs, doing nothing to come to her aid. With the mother now dead and out of the picture, Julie is happy to have her father all to herself. Her newfound joy is shattered when Harold, who’s been having an affair with a woman named Susan, decides to marry this woman, inviting her and her young son to live with he and Julie....
