Unwind after a long day Ultraman-style with the new Ultra Hero Chara-You 2 bath bombs from Bandai. The apple-scented bath salts and moisturizers -- molded in the likeness of Ultraman, Ultraman Ginga or Ultraman X -- effervesce for 1-2 minutes, transforming up to 33 gallons of water to a warm red color. The Ultra Hero bath bombs are sold individually in packs or in boxes of twelve (containing four each of the three different designs). The first wave of Ultra Hero bath bombs, featuring blue soda-scented Ultraman, Ultraman Ginga Strium and Ultraman Victory, was released on December 17, 2014. They were pulled from store shelves this past March as part of a recall of several Chara-You products over concerns of metallic contamination. Ultra Hero Chara-You 2/ ????? ?????????
