The latest Ultraman kit — Ultraman Suit Tiga — is on the unboxing table today!
Designed by Eiichi Shimizu, this kit is the first in Bandai’s new Ultraman Suit Project line. It includes glossy parts and an LED, and plenty more to enjoy! Let’s jump right in.
The Box
Here we’re treated to a preview of a couple of gimmicks this kit features, and poses that you can accomplish.
More poses, this time with effect parts and weapons! And of course, a look at the included LED that will really bring the finished model to life.
Here’s a quick explanation of the suit, with a preview of the gloss and metallic finish parts.
The Runners
A: Gloss red, gloss purple, clear yellow, clear(ish) white
B: Metallic finish grey

A clear runner for building the display base, so you don’t need to buy a separate one.
And finally, two clear blue effect parts, the LED, and a sheet of foil and regular stickers.

I’m really in two minds about these. On the one hand, they look so damn cool. They update previous designs into such an awesome mech-suit aesthetic. On the other hand, I can’t really see it as an “Ultraman” because of the original design being so smooth and simple… Though, Tiga was my first Ultra series… Hmmm…

I personally like the robotic look way more than the old, classic Ultraman designs. This model looks cool, but I’ll probably wait for the Evil Tiga they just announced!
Tesla Effect
One of my favorite Ultraman designs largely due to the cool head design. Also its odd seeing standard Gundam beam sabers with a non-Gundam kit, but it is in a uncommon color so thats awesome.
