To be fair, that subforum is rather new, and I think kpa doesn't check this site very often.

Anyway, did the Ultraman Powered costume really look that... rough?

I check the forums daily but tend to stick to the movie/TV news sections and hadn't noticed there was a toy subforum. If the mods want to move this thread I'll have no complaints.

The Tsuburaya Ultraman costumes are generally made out the material that is used for wetsuits. But the American crew that made ULTRAMAN: THE ULTIMATE HERO used different materials, which gave Powered more of a rough look and texture that X-Plus replicated with their new figure.
