Ultraman Xead Revealed!

Hey guys. I have just got notification on the new Ultraman, Ultraman Xead. If you hadn´t read my History of Ultraman post, I stated at the end of it saying that a new Ultraman Series is coming soon. The picture itself is just a silhouette preview, but pictures have been released about this new Ultraman. The shocking revelation about this new Ultraman is that he is the son of Ultraman Belial!

So to start off, this Ultraman´s design is a bit OK. It isn´t perfect judging by the eyes, but he is the son of Belial and the suit designers were trying to make him look like that he inherits Belial´s design, much like Ultraman Zero inherits his father´s design, who is Ultraseven. How Zero´s design inherits Ultraseven´s is that Ultraseven has one Eye Slugger while Ultraman Zero has two, which he usually calls the Zero Sluggers. That and Ultraman Zero transforms with glasses much like his dad.

        

So are main hero´s transformation device is the Xead Riser. His human identity is named Riku, but we don´t have any information on what his human form looks like. Much like Ultraman Ginga, Ultraman X, and Ultraman Orb, Xead will use collectible devices to transform, but in this case, Ultra Capsules, which are a homage to the Kaiju Capsule from Ultraseven. 

          

Much like Ultraman Orb, he will also combine the powers of past Ultraman to get a new form. His first form is Xead Primitive, which combines the powers of the original Ultraman and his dad´s. His second form is Xead Solid Burning, which combines the powers of Ultraseven and Ultraman Leo. His third form is Xead Acro Smash, which combines the powers of Ultraman Cosmos and Ultraman Hikari. His fourth form is Xead Magnificient, which combines the powers of Ultra Father and Ultraman Zero. Much like Ultraman Ginga, he will also turn into monsters, which like his forms are fusions of past monsters. The first is Skull Gomora, which combines Red King and Gomora. 

Ultraman Xead will also get a new weapon, the Xead Claw, which he can use to combine with the Xead Riser. 

When in human form, Riku will have a belt that will hold his Ultra Capsules. It is known as the Ultra Capsule Belt Holder.

Ultraman Zero will make an appearance on this show and will get a new form. It is called Ultraman Zero Beyond. He can achieve this new form by combining the Xead Riser with the Ultra Zero Eye Neo. 

Ultraman Belial will also fuse with other monsters to make new combinations. The first is Skull Gomora, which is a combination of Red King (from Ultraman) and Gomora (from Ultraman). The second is Thunder Killer, which is a combination of Ace Killer (from Ultraman Ace) and Eleking (from Ultraseven). The third is Betanium Zetton, which is a combination of Zetton (from Ultraman) and King Joe (from Ultraseven).

The new show, Ultraman Xead, will premiere on July 7th, 2017. So I hope you have a good time watching this series and so will I. Later.
