(comment) It is one of the six monsters in Marusan’s first series of Ultra Q sofubi figures. It is characterized by its dark navy molded color with silver paint and a movable tail. The production quantity for Marusan's first series of Ultra Kaiju was 600 units, but from Marusan's perspective at the time that number reflected a production run limited by not being able to obtain orders beyond initial expectations, and it was by no means a large figure. Perhaps because they could not dispel doubts about whether scary monster toys would sell to very young children at the time, wholesalers reacted poorly: as a result production was set at 600 units, and they produced 600 using the original master rather than creating a new production mold. Soft vinyl prototypes are usually pulled from the master mold. The reason there is no imprint of the copyright name is this: the copyright name was applied with a rubber stamp on the sole because it was not originally intended to be a production mold for retail products (Miyakawa).
