This reminds me of some of the past kiddie crazes here in the U.S. Anyone remeber the power rangers, poke'mon, or tickel-me-elmo? It's amazing how effective marketing to children can be. Maybe we should all stop watching so much Televison.

Better yet Doug... Maybe we should come up with a toy that costs us $1 to make, then give the marketing people a HUGE 50% of profits, and sell the toy for $8.

We would all be rich, hey we ca't beat 'em ( I know this, I have children), so why don't we profit from it? LOL

Not only is he sensitive, caring, and guardian of the Earth, he can also boil water before your eyes.

For the last couple of years my two nephews Get and Bem have been obsessed with Ultraman.Each time I see them they always ask if Loong Matthew will take them to Big C to buy the latest Ultraman vcd.
They have Ultraman t-shirts,masks,playing cards,dolls,colouring books.Does anyone else have any experience of Ultraman taking over their kids lives!!lol Get even had me video him asking his Auntie Jook who is staying with us to send over 79 baht from England to Thailand so that he could go to big C.

Perhaps you may not know that there were two (or more I'm not sure) films about Hanuman with 7 Ultramans, and Hanuman with Jumbo A . These films were shown in 70's.

It was really funny - he looked and posed just like the others. I wish I could show it to you guys. I took a picture of it in my camera, but lost it.

Ok sounds good to me. Now we need to come up with a cartoon, a movie, a video game, happy meal toys, promtional contests, ect. Remember kids: if your parents love you they'll buy 'em all.
