Zero Variant Becomes an Official Distribution Partner of threezero in the UK

By Zero Variant ·

Zero Variant is now an official distribution partner of threezero in the UK. As collectors we have admired threezero's work for years, so we are excited to add them to our range.

Who threezero are

If you collect high-end figures, you have probably stopped to stare at a threezero piece in someone's collection. Founded in Hong Kong in 2000 by Kim Fung Wong, one of the original producers of the city's 1990s designer figure scene, the studio grew into one of the most respected licensed collectible makers in the world, with a roster that runs from Transformers and Marvel Studios to Evangelion and ULTRAMAN.

What earns the respect is the engineering: threezero builds die-cast metal frames into its robot figures, which gives them real weight, serious articulation and the detailed paintwork the studio is famous for. Pick one up and you can feel that someone cared about how it sits in your hand, not just how it photographs.

What we are starting with

We are opening with three franchises.

Power Rangers. The FigZero 1/6 line pairs detailed helmets and sculpts with tailored fabric outfits. We are starting with two eras: the Red Power Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return and the Power Rangers Zeo range, headlined by the FigZero 1/6 Zeo Power Rangers Pack.

Robotech. The ROBO-DOU line brings the VF-1 Veritechs to life on die-cast frames. Current releases include the VF-1S Super Veritech set.

Future GPX Cyber Formula. The racing machines from the classic anime are back in threezero's catalogue, beginning with the Super Asurada 01 and the Asurada G.S.X RS Siren, the matte black 35th anniversary release. If you grew up with Cyber Formula, you already know why these matter.

Where to start

The threezero collection is live now on our threezero page. New preorders will appear on our preorders page as we open them, so keep an eye there if a grail is on the horizon. We will also cover the announcements worth knowing about here on the blog, so check back soon.

If there is a threezero line or licence you want us to carry, tell us.
