Ultraman Toy Blog Vol.60 Blazar Brace 24 Secrets / Part 5 Just before the release! The last secret you need to know | Ultraman TOY WEB

Hello everyone.
My name is Nno, and I'm in charge of planning and development Ultraman Blazar toys.

The "DX Blazar Brace" will finally go on sale tomorrow, Saturday, July 8th!

So today we bring you the final episode of "The 24 Secrets of the DX Blazar Brace."

We'll be introducing some gorgeous features that we haven't been able to share with you yet, such as the audio gimmick.
It's full of interesting topics that will keep you interested until the very end, including useful information you should know before purchasing!

The Secret of Blazar Brace 24 <19/24: Audio Data Volume>
First, regarding the "audio gimmick."
How much sound is included in the console is an important point that determines the depth of play you can have after purchasing it...

This Blazar Brace,
It contains approximately 270 different sound effects, transformation sounds, and lines!

If you simply connect the audio, you will end up with nearly 900 seconds (15 minutes) of audio data.
This is a data volume comparable to (or even exceeding) that of PREMIUM BANDAI limited items such as ULTRA REPLICA and Memorial Editions.

To narrow down the scope a bit,
As for the lines in "Hirmagent",
We have already introduced the seven types of sounds that can be produced by breathing alone.
Including those that activate in conjunction with other stones, there are actually 35 patterns in total!

by the way!
In the first review, I mentioned that the game features the voices of 20 characters from the past, including Gent.
In fact, the "DX Blazar Brace" already features the voice of Ultraman Blazar, played by Iwata Eikei, which was announced just the other day!
(Blazer has about 10 built-in shout patterns.)

If we count the voices of these blazers, the legendary cast has a total of 21 voices!

What's more, the sounds of new monsters that will appear in Blazer, such as Bazanga, have also been recorded.

...And so, the "DX Blazar Brace" is chock full of sounds related to the Blazer.

In the very first article, I said, "You'll definitely enjoy Blazar Brace more if you buy it as soon as it's released, rather than waiting to see how it turns out!" This is what I meant by that.
In order to make the game most enjoyable when played in real time, we received a lot of cooperation from Tsuburaya Productions, Director Taguchi, and the directors in charge of each episode, and we've packed in every element that's within reach.

The Secret of Blazar Brace 24 <20/24: Standby Sound>
Now, this is related to the "audio data" mentioned earlier, but we were particular about the "transformation standby sound" recorded on Blazar Brace...

When a stone from a previous Ultraman other than Blazer is set, the transformation standby sound will change to a sound effect from that hero.

For example, when you insert a "Z Stone", the standby sound for the "Ultra Z Riser" will sound.

When you insert the "Z-Riser" standby sound, which will be released in the future, the sound will play.

Furthermore, when I added "Geed Stone (Galaxy Rising)",
There's also a unique combination pattern in which the line "Nothing will get you anywhere if you just sit there!" is played over the standby sound of the "Ultra Z Riser".

Not all Ultraman have their own standby sounds, so the game is basically centered around the New Generation stones.
Some stones, such as the original Ultraman and Tiga, also have special standby sounds that will remind you of each hero, so you can look forward to them.

The 24 Secrets of Blazar Brace <21/24: Voice from Heaven>
Next, let's talk about "Voice from Heaven."

As already explained in the published "Figure King" magazine, the transformation sound of Blazer itself does not have a guidance voice (commonly known as the "Voice of Heaven") shouting the name "Ultraman Blazar!", but what happens when you put in the stones of the previous Ultraman? Surprisingly, the voice of Heaven that was heard during the transformation scenes of each Ultraman 's original works is played.

In other words
When you insert the "X Stone", you will hear a voice say "X United," and when you insert the "Geed Stone (Primitive)," you will hear a voice say "Ultraman! Ultraman Belial! Ultraman Geed, primitive!" in the exact same voice as in the original.

I say this myself,
It's a very luxurious specification.

Additionally, we've edited the timing where the voice from heaven overlaps with the transformation sound to make it as consistent as possible with the sound in the movie.

For example, in the case of the "Trigger Stone (Multi Type)," instead of playing "Ultraman Trigger Multi Type!" after the transformation melody has finished,
This mimics the timing often used in the "Ultraman Trigger" series, where a heavenly voice overlaps at the beginning of the transformation sound, around the chorus of "Ehhh-Ehhh".

At this point, it's almost like a wish...
I spent a lot of time editing the audio with the sole desire that people would buy the game and play it, so I would be happy if even a few people were able to enjoy it.

The Secret of Blazar Brace 24 <22/24: Post-transformation audio>
So far, we have been talking about the sound in the transformation play sequence.
After transformation, the sound that plays when you press the buttons has also been boosted to the maximum extent that the capacity of the built-in IC will allow!

For example, in the case of the "Blazar Stone" that comes with the DX Blazar Brace,
① Blazer's call A (the voice used for the prayer action immediately after transformation)
② Blazer's call B (normal battle call)
3. Gent's line (introducing the technique name "Spiral Valley!")
4. Spiral ballade activation sound (also includes the Blazer shout)
There are four kinds of sounds:

In the case of the "Zero Stone" included in DX Blazar Stone 02,
① Zero's call
② Wide Zero Shot activation sound (Zero's shout is also included here)
3. Zero's line A ("I have no limits!")
④ Zero's Quote B ("The black hole is blowing!")
That's the image I have.

By the way, regarding the "Blazar Stone" included in the "SG Blazar Stone" which will be released as a candy toy,
The post-transformation sound differentiates the two, so you won't regret buying both.

in particular,
① Blazer's call C (A threatening cry of "Rurororororororororo!!")
2) Ghent's lines (This is a line from a certain play, so I'll keep it a secret for now.)
Two voices will be heard, both of which are different from the DX version.

In this way, depending on the stone, 1 to 4 different sounds will be played after the transformation (most have 2 or more), so you can enjoy great depth in your play!

Blazar Brace 24 Secrets <23/24: Early Purchase Bonus>
Well, there is still another luxurious topic about Blazar Brace.
Starting from the release date on Saturday, July 8th, a campaign will begin where customers can receive a "New Gene Stone" as a first-come, first-served bonus!

The New Gene Stone is based on Ultraman Zero holding the Dimensionnizer, and its decoration is the height of luxury, with a metallic blue base, Aurora Gold hot stamping, and the same clear cover as Blazar Stone using polarized pearls.

The best part is the sound that is linked with the "DX Blazar Brace"!

When the stone is set,
Over the standby sound reminiscent of Zero, a voice line saying "The black hole is blowing away!" is played.
(Incidentally, I chose this line because the name "Blazar" is related to black holes.)

Then, when you press the button, a very flashy light animation starts to play.
On top of that, a medley of the shouts of the 14 New Generation Ultraman from the past will be played!
(The 14 members are: Zero, Ginga, Victory, X, Orb, Geed, Rosso, Bull, Taiga, Titas, Fuma, Z, Trigger, and Decker.)

Furthermore, if you press the button after that, you will hear Gent's voice.
A special line is heard: "From here on...I'll go!! Ultraman Blazar!"

I say this myself,
It's a very luxurious design. (Part 2)

From "New Generation Stars," which celebrated the 10th anniversary of the New Generation, to "Ultraman Blazar," which aims to go beyond that horizon and advance into a new dimension...

This is a piece that we have a strong attachment to, as we developed it to be a stone that truly symbolizes the "passing of the baton."

The products covered by the campaign are
Either the "DX Blazar Brace" alone or the "DX Blazar Brace Ultimate NARIKIRI Set"

So, if you purchase Blazar Brace, you can get one, so we hope you'll hurry to the store before the prizes run out.

The Secret of Blazar Brace 24 <24/24: The Ultimate NARIKIRI Set>
Now, it's finally the last one!
The last secret is about the contents of the "DX Blazar Brace Ultimate NARIKIRI Set."

Compared to the standalone version, the set version comes with an increased number of Blazar Stone, with the eight stones included in the "DX Blazar Stone 01 Glorious Ultraman Set" and "DX Blazar Stone 02 Zero vs Belial Set" being added to the standalone version.

Of these, the "DX Blazar Stone 02 Zero vs Belial Set" will be released as a standalone version on Saturday, July 22nd.
If you buy the set version, you can play with "02" Stone up to two weeks earlier!

All 10 stones included in the "Strongest NARIKIRI Set" have their own unique lighting animations, making it extremely fun to play with!

The packaging also has a special design that brings together all Ultraman from the past, so please take this information into consideration when deciding which one to get.
