When we went to visit Bandai, as part of the tour, we were told about some new products. When this toy monster appeared- well, it was love at first sight-in part because it had a mythological creature look about him, and his beautiful colors.... I watched Ultraman when I was a child, a few decades ago, but I did not remember this monster. Nevertheless I did not like the idea that such a beautiful monster should be defeated, even if it was by my childhood hero. I had voiced this opinion. And our wonderful guides at Bandai gave me this fabulous toy. I am still moved by their generous gesture.

To tell the truth the toy is more beautiful than the actual monster in the series. And though I don't have a perfect recollection of the episode, after seeing these pictures I seem to remember (a little bit) that monster.
The drawing and instructions page came with the toy.




So I did a bit of research about this monster. Dodongo appears
in episode 12 of Ultraman called "Cry of the Mummy." Dodongo is sometimes referred as the Mummy's Monster. For specific information about Dodongo please see :
