The deformed figure will be available in two color variants: a Normal Color Ver. with a muted retro finish and a Metallic Color Ver. with gold paint across the body. The figure stands approximately 12 centimeters tall and reproduces Kanegon's distinctive mouth zipper and uneven body shape despite the chibi proportions. It is scheduled to appear sequentially at crane game prize machines starting May 27, 2026. The figure is manufactured by BANDAI SPIRITS under the Banpresto brand. The announcement was made by Dengeki Hobby Web on May 17, 2026. Photos of the product are of a prototype, and the actual product may differ slightly. The release date is subject to change without notice.","why_it_matters":"The Chinza Beast line's expansion into Ultraman monsters shows Banpresto continuing to mine classic tokusatsu designs for its prize figure market, a segment that typically favors mainstream anime and game characters.","published_at":"2026-05-19T23:31:00.000Z","source_count":1,"sources":["Dengeki Hobby Web"],"citations":[{"source":"Dengeki Hobby Web","title":"Banpresto's Prize Figure \"Chinza Beast\" Welcomes Coin Monster Kanegon from Ultraman Series!
