"Ultra Monster Tin Made Gui Only" will be on sale at Bandai's official shopping site "Premium Bandai". Reservations will be accepted from 13:00 on December 1st. The reception period is scheduled to be until 23:00 on January 16, 2017.
This is a collaboration between the "Ultraman" series, which has celebrated 50 years since the start of broadcasting, and the traditional craft "Takaoka Casting" of Toyama Prefecture, which has a history of more than 400 years. It is a sake set made of 100% tin, which is shaped like the heads of the ultra monsters "Alien Baltan" and "Dada".
First of all, based on the prototype, we made a silicon mold. The tin heated to about 260 degrees is manually poured into the mold, and when the tin has cooled and hardened, it is removed from the mold. At the end, the craftsmen use "skilled skills" to carefully polish and finish each one.
