Alien Baltan is the invader of Tsuburaya Productions' Ultra series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecretbase opened in Harajuku on 24 December 2001, and its X-RAY figures set a clear vinyl body over an embedded skeleton or mechanism, a treatment its founder HIDDY says he was the first to use at this scale. This 450 class X-RAY full colour Alien Baltan, made with Marusan, is sprayed green and blue over clear vinyl with the bones showing through; it is new, its bag open at the header from the outset.
