【Ultraman】A super super super special alarm clock commemorating the 60th anniversary appears! Metallic paint finish, removable mantle allowing arrangements, and more! Popularity of the SEIKO Ultraman 60th Anniversary Alarm Clock is soaring!

“What if Ultraman woke me up in the morning?” The item that shaped such a childhood fantasy quite seriously is the “SEIKO Ultraman 60th Anniversary Alarm Clock”. It is a special limited model made to commemorate the major milestone of Ultraman's 60th anniversary, finished into a presence that allows you to enjoy displaying Ultraman itself rather than just a clock featuring the character. Size is 167mm in width, 237mm in height, 120mm in depth, and main unit weight is 465g including the mantle. Not only as an alarm clock, it is an item that makes you want to place it on a desk or shelf to gaze at as part of a collection. Precisely because it is a clock seen every morning, just having a favorite hero there seems likely to change the impression of wake-up time a little.

If it is a commemorative item, after all you would want to adhere to the appearance as well. High-brightness metallic painting is applied to this model, and furthermore adopting an aluminum dial produces high-quality texture. While enjoying Ultraman-like sculpting, not just leaning toward a toy-like impression, but being conscious of a sense of luxury fitting a 60th anniversary model is the point. For fans who think “If anything, I want something that can be used daily and satisfies when displayed”, wouldn't this direction be pleasing? Because a practical item named a clock and gorgeousness typical of a commemorative item unite into one, there is charm in being able to enjoy it as a display even during times not in use.

And what catches the eye is the included decorative mantle. What serves as a motif is the “Brothers Mantle”, reproduced so you can enjoy the figure equipped on Ultraman. Moreover, because it is removable rather than a fixed decoration, you can change styles according to the mood of the day or display ways. Wrapping the mantle creates a dignified atmosphere typical of a commemorative model, and taking it off lets you fully enjoy the familiar Ultraman-like figure. Even though it is a single alarm clock, two ways of showing are possible as a display. Such a device where “you can choose the completed form yourself” leads to fun precisely because it is an item displayed for a long time.

Of course, where it demonstrates its true ability is the alarm time. When the set time comes, the Color Timer on the chest glows green, starting the wake-up mission with the voice “I am Ultraman. I came to wake up sleepyhead you.” Subsequently, the familiar Color Timer sound rings, and furthermore when the timer changes to red blinking, “Oh no! There's no time! Get up quickly!” increases even tension. Rather than just ringing sounds to wake up, combining light, voice, and Color Timer to make a few minutes of the morning into a small Ultraman theater is truly unique. Even if trying to return to the futon thinking “Just 5 more minutes...”, being told by Ultraman that there is no time seems likely to make you get slightly panicked as expected.

What I personally feel interesting is that production continues up to the moment stopping the alarm. Safely waking up and stopping the alarm brings a single phrase from Ultraman: “You woke up well! Shuwatch!!” Normally pressing the switch to become quiet would be the end, but in this clock, even a small sense of accomplishment is prepared for the morning routine of “waking up properly”. Coming to wake up, rushing, and finally praising and leaving. Because this series of flows becomes a story typical of Ultraman, there is fun different from a mere voice-equipped clock. It is a device changing the slightly troublesome time of daily wake-up into an event fans spontaneously react to.

Furthermore, as a bonus, an “Ultraman 60th Anniversary Original Commemorative Card” with a serial number is included. It is an element heightening the actual feeling of obtaining a limited model, making you want to store it carefully together with the clock main unit. Textures by metallic painting and aluminum dial, detachable Brothers Mantle, alarm productions making full use of light and voices, and included up to a commemorative card, this product cannot be fully told with just the frame of “a tool to inform time”. Enjoying placing the milestone of the 60th anniversary nearby, and when morning comes, that hero wakes you up. Starting the day together with Ultraman, it is a special alarm clock tickling fan hearts.
