ULTRAMAN ZERO THE CHRONICLE
threezeroX Ryu Oyama Dark Baltan All Black Edition
threezeroX is the high-end line from threezero which invites different renown artists from around the world to redesign action figures according to their own unique styles. The first release of the series was threezeroX Ryu Oyama Dark Baltan, which has been reimagined by the Japanese sculptor Ryu Oyama based on Dark Baltan. Dark Baltan appears in the Ultraman Zero’s 2009 movie “MEGA MONSTER BATTLE ULTRA GALAXY: THE MOVIE”, and is one of the latest iterations of the popular character Alien Baltan from the Ultraman franchise. By utilizing its unique form, Oyama has given the figure elaborate artistic details to create an updated version of modern-day Baltan. Now threezero presents its new color variant exclusive for Hong Kong at Hong Kong Ani-Com & Games Fair 2023, the All Black Edition!
threezeroX Ryu Oyama Dark Baltan All Black Edition is approximately 36cm (14″) tall and has 47 points of articulation. Its surface is painted entirely mat black to give it a shadow-like look, and the installed LED lights make its eyes light up in emerald green (Requires AG13 batteries x 2, batteries not included). As for the interchangeable claws, it comes with one pair of standard sized claws, one piece of small left claw, and two pieces of large right claws. One of the large claws has texts saying “Original sculpt by Ryu Oyama” printed in Japanese, which is an exclusive accessory for this item. The collectible figure also includes one articulated stand.
