I didn't know dick about Ultraman but I had a huge desire to get this playset and some of the monster figures so I could pretend to play King of the Monsters with toys. I only ever saw it at some appliance store that had a random toy isle my Grandparents would stop at every now and then because they worked for Hoover and had to go in to discuss ordering with the shop owner. I begged for that thing like a spoiled asshole multiple times but never got it because they said it was too expensive there. I guess the owner stocked toys at a hefty markup for that exact reason, to exploit children bored out of their minds that got dragged along with their family.
