HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BIN FURUYA! Ultraman Turns 71!

July 5 marks Bin Furuya's 71st birthday, so your humble blogmeister wishes the beloved Ultraman suit actor a very happy celebration. On top of being the very first suit actor to portray Ultraman, Mr. Furuya played Amagi in the popular follow-up series Ultra Seven (1967-68). Mr. Furuya began his acting career at Toho where he was largely used in small background roles.

Happy birthday, Ultraman!
