Happy Birthday Ultraman!

» by Guest in: Japan

In celebration of Ultraman’s 40th birthday, a news conference was held on March 28th. The highlight of the conference was not just to show off the latest incarnation of Ultraman, Ultraman Mebius, but to reunite the entire Ultraman family.

I was amazed to see a photo of all the different Ultramen. I’ve always been interested in Ultraman and henshin in general (Super Sentai & Kamen Rider) so I decided to figure out the photo. After some low-level research, I attempted to pick out who each Ultraman pictured was. In the photo there are 13, I numbered them from left to right starting from the top row.

The Ultraman Family!

  1. Ultraman Zearth
  2. Ultraman Powered
  3. Ultraman Zoffy
  4. Ultraman Legend
  5. Ultraman Neos
  6. UltraSeven 21
  7. Ultraman Astra
  8. Mother of Ultra
  9. Father of Ultra
  10. Ultrawoman Yullian
  11. UltraSeven
  12. Ultraman Mebius
  13. Ultraman

——————————-

I like Ultraman but I am not 100% sure of my list, if you know that any are incorrect, please let me know.
