They teased. They toyed with our emotions. For a couple of years now, Bluefin Tamashii Nations have teased us that they could do a Lord Zedd figure, either as a S.H. Figuarts or a FiguartsZERO. After teasing us that they could, they teased that they had something they were working on. But then time passed by. Over a year after teasing that something was in the works, at Anime Expo this past weekend, they finally delivered on their tease. During a panel regarding current and upcoming projects, a blurry image of Lord Zedd with his iconic throne was shown with the tag FiguartsZERO.
It would appear that all that waiting has finally paid off. After showing the blurry image, they later announced on their Facebook page that everything shown at the panel would most likely be shown in person at this year’s upcoming San Diego Comic Con. Don’t worry – we’ve got you covered there (our full coverage begins Tuesday, July 22nd … or basically just about 2 weeks away). Here’s a run down on the news from the panel that pertains to Power Rangers!
- FiguartsZERO Lord Zedd – more details to come, could be shown at SDCC 2014
- S.H. Figuarts of other Power Rangers teams – they stated that Bandai doesn’t think there’s currently a series that has an overwhelming demand. They want to see an overwhelming demand for a series before they could begin working on it. They’ve asked that we please spam their Facebook page with requests for one of three series – Power Rangers Zeo, Power Rangers In Space, or Power Rangers Time Force. Doing so will show Bandai that there’s an overwhelming demand and they can move forward.
This is apparently the year of Lord Zedd! First he gets a Legacy figure, and now he is apparently getting a FiguartsZERO as well. So let’s talk about it #RangerNation! Is a FiguartsZERO Lord Zedd a must-buy for you? Is it a wait and see? Join in the discussion! Don’t forget to keep your browsers tuned right here for our coverage of this year’s San Diego Comic Con – pictures, videos, interviews, and so much more!

Some news from Tamashii Nations panel from Anime Expo this weekend.
And non-Power Rangers news.
So. Who wants to see Lord Zedd at SDCC?!

I am excited for the big bad Lord Zedd himself, but him sitting on a throne is kind of a let down. Although as long as he has a sweet looking staff and is in that pose where he is resting his head on his hand like "Goldar what the helld you do now?" I will get it.
Now if we can get everyone to spam Tamashii for Zeo.
Powerman293 says
What? Figuarts Zero? Lord Zed moved around a lot so he needs a proper figure damn it!

I hope we get a Yoshi at some point o-o

Sentai says
Then it's decided. We need to make a concentrated effort to spam them with Zeo.

Additionally, if Dragonranger could get both a posable figure and a Zero, maybe Zedd might get that honor as well?
SideswipePrime says
Ah, good. I'm glad the news got out~
In the panel they were giving away an SHF and they showed the picture, and asked who it was. Whoever guessed it right won the SHF (I can't remember what it was). One guy said "Lord Zedd" and the Bluefin guy said "Maybeeeeeee..." with the biggest grin on his face.
Den-O says
Yup. I needs. Zedd in my life.
But I'm also ridiculously excited for Veggito and Luigi
