Zero Variant

Zero Variant: anime figures, mecha and premium collectibles from the UK

Zero Variant is an online retailer based in the United Kingdom that specialises in collectible figures, mecha, statues and model kits. The store presents itself as an official threezero distribution partner and organises its catalogue around Japanese licences, with a strong presence of Transformers, Macross, Saint Seiya, Dragon Ball, Jujutsu Kaisen and Godzilla lines, among others.

The shop structures its offer in three main blocks: preorders, latest arrivals and in-stock products. Preorders can be secured with a deposit, with the balance payable when the item arrives, and the company states that every order ships with a tracking number and is carefully packed.

Franchises and product types in the catalogue

The catalogue is browsable by franchise, product type and brand. Among the franchises listed are Transformers, Diaclone, Resident Evil, Macross, Future GPX Cyber Formula, Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Zoids, Jujutsu Kaisen and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, alongside featured collections such as Missing Link, Diaclone, threezero, Soul of Chogokin, HI-METAL R and S.H.Figuarts.

By product type, the store separates figures, Nendoroids, statues, vehicles, model kits, replicas and accessories. The brand roster includes Takara Tomy, Tamashii Nations, threezero, MegaHouse, Good Smile Company, MOSHOWTOYS, POSE+, Action Toys, Banpresto and Playmates Toys.

Preorder system and release schedule

Much of the activity revolves around preorders with staggered release dates. The site groups items under headings such as preorders, arriving soon and in stock, and shows an estimated arrival month for each product. Examples in the catalogue at the time of writing include a Dragon Ball Z S.H.Figuarts Son Goku figure scheduled for June 2027, a Saint Seiya Saint Cloth Myth EX Cygnus Hyoga figure for May 2027 and a Persona 3 Reload Mitsuru Kirijo 1/7 scale figure for October 2027.

The preorder section also lists items marked as closed, indicating that reservations for certain releases are no longer accepted. The store notes that preorders can be secured with a deposit, with the remaining balance paid on arrival.

Featured and high-value releases

Among the highlighted products are a Takara Tomy Diaclone DA-120 Robot Base GX (Royal Defender) action figure priced at £1,099.99 and a Power Rangers Soul of Chogokin GX-72 Megazord and GX-78 Dragonzord diecast figure set from Tamashii Nations at £449.99. The catalogue also includes a ranking of titles such as a Masters of the Universe 200X He-Man 1/12 scale figure by Mondo, an IT: Welcome to Derry Pennywise 1/6 collectible figure by INART and a Future GPX Cyber Formula Super Asurada 01 vehicle produced by threezero and MegaHouse.

In-stock items and bundled sets

The in-stock section gathers products ready to ship, including a Resident Evil Requiem Grace Ashcroft figure from the Capcom Figure Builder Creators Model line, a Mazinger Z Jumbo Machineder 60 cm action figure by Tamashii Nations and a Thundercats Ultimates Wave 15 figure set by Super7. Some listings are offered as multi-item bundles with a discount over the individual price, such as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x G.I. Joe crossover set by Playmates Toys.

Authenticity, shipping and customer information

The company states that every item is verified as genuine and that it does not sell bootlegs. Orders are described as shipped with tracking, and the store advertises free UK delivery.
