Ultraman Tiga is in the middle of its 30th anniversary year, with a cast reunion, streaming expansion, and merchandise collaborations already announced. The most recent story is an SSK baseball gear collaboration tied to the Ultraman series 60th anniversary project.
Ultraman Tiga's 30th anniversary has produced activity on several fronts. U-Next added Ultraman Tiga and Ultraman Dyna on July 10 in HD remastered editions, part of a limited-time lineup of 23 classic Ultraman and Tsuburaya titles running from July 1 to August 31. That same day, the Ultraman Tiga 30th Premium Stage was held at Suginami Public Hall, reuniting original cast members Hiroshi Nagano, Takami Yoshimoto, Mio Takaki, and Akitoshi Otaki. The event featured a reading, the appearance of Tiga's three forms, and V6's 'TAKE ME HIGHER.'
Merchandise followed in waves. Takara Tomy announced a BEYBLADE X starter set themed on Ultraman Tiga for September 12, 2026, with interchangeable parts replicating Tiga's three forms. Bandai then opened pre-orders for four sofubi figures, two of which mark the 30th anniversary of the series broadcast: Ultra Hero Series 128 Glitter Tiga Fighting Pose ver. and Ultra Kaiju Series 256 Kyrieloid II, both 990 yen and releasing September 5, 2026. The other two figures, Ultra Kaiju Series 257 Baderoba and Ultra Hero Series 129 Ultraman Zero Zero Twin Sword ver., are from other Ultraman titles.
The most recent story extends the anniversary into baseball equipment rather than figures or apparel alone. SSK opened reservations from September 18 to October 4, 2026 for two adult rubber baseball gloves and two logo T-shirts under the Ultraman series 60th anniversary collaboration project, sold through SSK and Tsuburaya Store ONLINE with delivery scheduled for late December.
