Source: FanSets, LLC Official Site: fansets.myshopify.com/collections/ultraman Special Thanks to Lew Halboth and John Garrison Over the past several months Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd., in association with The Licensing Group Ltd., has been very active in signing up partners to produce official Ultraman products for North America. Last summer, Mill Creek Entertainment acquired the home entertainment distribution rights to the Ultraman library and they are now releasing the shows and movies on Blu-ray and Digital. Marvel Entertainment has licensed Ultraman for a new comic book series that will debut later this year. Now comes a new line of officially licensed Ultraman collectible pins from FanSets. Based in Aurora, CO, FanSets is owned and run by Lew Halboth and John Garrison. The company manufactures pins based on iconic brands such as DC Comics, Harry Potter and Star Trek. FanSets is a Global Partner for Classic Ultraman, with a license to create products using the images of Ultraman, characters, vehicles, weapons, sets and story content from the television series ULTRA Q (1966), ULTRAMAN (1966-67), ULTRASEVEN (1967-68), RETURN OF ULTRAMAN (1971-72), ULTRAMAN ACE (1972-73), ULTRAMAN TARO (1973-74), ULTRAMAN LEO (1974-75) and ULTRAMAN 80 (1980-81). FanSets also has rights to the 2019 Netflix ULTRAMAN anime. Ultraman has a lifelong personal connection for John Garrison. "I am half Japanese and my mom introduced me and my brothers to Ultraman. We grew up watching Ultraman and playing with the toys and the books my aunts and uncles sent to us from Japan. I have loved Ultraman most of my life and am super excited that we get to actually produce licensed product for it now.”

“The potential we see for Ultraman as a global licensed partner is unlimited!," added Lew Halboth. "We are currently looking for distribution and retail partners globally. Once the fans get them in their hands they will see the quality, price and selection is second to none!” FanSets released the first Ultraman Series 1 pins on April 1. The customer response has been very strong, and the company has already shipped product to Ultraman fans in 17 countries around the world. The Series 1 pins can now be purchased at fansets.myshopify.com/collections/ultraman. They stand 2 to 2½ inches tall and can be worn with most clothing or easily displayed with the FanStands accessory (sold separately). Retail prices for the pins starts at $6.95. Larger pins in future collections may be priced slightly higher.
