Set Contents Stegon First released by X-Plus in March 2011, the fossil monster Stegon from Tsuburaya Productions’ RETURN OF ULTRAMAN (???????????, Kaettekita Urutoraman, 1971-72) is being reissued as the third figure in their new Soft Series. By packing cotton into the extra-soft vinyl, the figure becomes a fun stuffed toy for Ultraman fans and collectors. Introduced in RETURN OF ULTRAMAN Episode 10: DINOSAUR EXPLOSION DIRECTIVE (??????, Kyoryuu Bakuha Shirei), Stegon is the reanimated remains of a dinosaur that fights Ultraman Jack and the Monster Attack Team. Realizing the monster is not evil, Jack transforms Stegon into stars so that it may drift peacefully in the heavens. This item is sold exclusively online by Shounen Ric and will not be available from retail stores.

Set Contents Godzilla Shounen Ric Limited Edition Price: ¥6,480 (Tax Included) Product Code: TBA ? Set Contents Godzilla X-Plus` DefoReal Series finally steps away from SHIN GODZILLA (??????, Shin Gojira, 2016) to produce a new figure from the original GODZILLA (???, Gojira, 1954). Based on a famous publicity still of Godzilla’s attack on Shinagawa Station in the film, the sculpt blends the popular "Super Deformed" (SD) style -- cute figures with large heads, squat, chubby bodies and stubby limbs -- with more realistic features. Godzilla and the train are shades of grey to replicate the look of the black-and-white movie. In addition to the General Distribution figure, there will be an exclusive, limited edition version from the Shounen Ric website. Production specifications are still being determined.
