Ultra Monster 500 (Ultra Monster Series)

Ultra Monster 500 (ウルトラ怪獣500) was a toyline created by Bandai, which consisted of 5.5 inch (14 cm) figures of monsters and aliens from the Ultra Series. Each of the figures had a stamp on their left foot and were compatible with the DX Ginga Spark, Victory Lancer, X Devizer, and other related roleplay items.

The series was later rebranded as Ultra Monster Series (ウルトラ怪獣シリーズ) with the Live Sign removed to reflect changes in the toyline, making it a spiritual successor of the discontinued original Ultra Monster Series toyline.

The Ultra Hero Series is also part of the Ultra Sofvi Series (ウルトラソフビシリーズ).

NOTE: Keep in mind that this wiki will mark them as Ultra Monster Series (500)/(2016) on their individual pages for specifications' sake.

Pricing[]

When the Ultra Monster 500 series was first launched during the run of Ultraman Ginga in 2013, figures were priced at 500 yen each. Due to inflation and the rising costs of raw materials, price revisions have been made to the toyline over the years. The first price revision comes with the removal of the Live Sign and the transition to the Ultra Monster Series name.
