Threezero are continuing their licensing onslaught with the Power Rangers, kicking things off with a massive FigZero 1/6th scale box set. The set includes all 5 core Rangers along with Tommy aka the Green Ranger. These are available in a collector box that folds open to show them all lined up. Each one will also be available individually of course, but if you want the whole team in one shot, this box set is what to aim for.

Threezero was kind enough to send through a set to review, and we are taking a look across the network. You can check out the Black and Blue Rangers here at TokuNation. The Green and Pink Rangers are available over at PWRRNGR.com. And then to cap it off, check out the Red and Yellow Rangers are over on Toyark.com. The pics of the packaging and fancy hero shots are available at each.

These were due to ship in Q3 2021. As we all know by now, shipping is a mess globally so assume dates are shifting forward. Some folks who bought retail have received individual figures. The rest should be coming soon(ish), same for this box set. Hit your favorite Threezero stockist to grab your copies if you dig em!

under Ultraman

Our friends at Hobby Link Japan sent through information on 3 new Ultraman products hitting the Japanese market.  The high end collectibles will include Character Classics Ultraman Taro, Ultraman Tiga Art Master 3D, Ultra Q Decayed Garamon Art Master 3D.  Each of them are based on the classic series and are meant for the most die-hard Ultraman fans.  Read on to check out the details and info from HLJ!

80cm Tiga, Two More Breathtaking Ultraman Statues from GomoraKick

GomoraKick (Kaiyodo International) presents three premium, highly-detailed Ultraman statues for summer release: Ultraman Tiga, Ultraman Taro, and Gamaron.

SANO, Japan — HobbyLink Japan, one of the largest and longest-operating international retailers of Japanese hobby products and toys, announced today the release of three premium statues for Ultraman fans, brought to life by master sculptors Takashi Kinoshita and Ryu Oyama. All three statues will be available outside of Japan this July from GomoraKick (Kaiyodo International), and are currently available for pre-order from HobbyLink Japan with no prepayment required.

Character Classics Ultraman Taro (¥34,800 JPY)
https://shop.hlj.com/2Kuf8X8

Based on the in-depth knowledge and research of Takashi Kinoshita, Ultraman Taro is recreated in impressive detail at 35cm tall. The mask has been crafted with the original mask used as reference, and the Color Timer has been reproduced in translucent material and reverse installed for an impeccable appearance. Includes a magnetic display stand.

  • 35cm tall
  • Completed cold-cast model
  • Display stand included (cold-cast, magnetic)

Created by Takashi Kinoshita, Ultraman Tiga features a realistic, screen-accurate costume created by 3D scanning the original vinyl kit, then enlarging and improving details into a stunning 80cm-tall statue. His eyes and Color Timer are LED-lit, and sound effects are built in, adding interactivity to aesthetic. A remote control for the LEDs and sound effect, as well as a display stand, are included.

Sculptor Ryu Oyama brings us the most detailed, delightfully grotesque version of Garamon yet. Garamon was crafted as a 14cm-tall clay model which was CT scanned to capture every layer and detail necessary to enlarge the final statue to a 20cm height. Made from blown poly-resin similar to plastic, this kaiju is made to be particular resistant to breakage and damage to protect each carefully-crafted thorn and edge.

  • 20cm tall
  • Blow-molded poly-resin
  • Sculpted by Ryu Oyama
