    1/12 scale model kit from Bandai. This is the (Limiter Release Ver.)
    The second photo shows the light unit that comes with the figure. I'll have the correct batteries for it tomorrow.

    This is a pretty quick build! No glue anywhere and completely poseable. I'll be adding Tamiya black panel liner while I wait on batteries for the final pics.

    @fiveten, @johnb - Thank you Spiros, Thank you John!
    The batteries have now been installed. I think future Ultraman variants will have custom LEDs so they can be plugged in and have an accessible switch.

    Alrighty, all finished. I have realized while installing the batteries and then installing the LED unit into the chest... that replacing batteries will be a nuisance. I will do additional Ultraman variants from the Netflix series and in those, I'll install custom LEDs and hardwire them with a switch like my Gundam Barbatos. This variant is going to stay as is... at least for now. It may end up being updated with better LEDs when I build the next one.

    A quick build but with excellent result, Brian @brithebuilder
    The LED lighting makes it look more dynamic.
