?️ Xeno‑Rex Type‑02 Roars to Life!
T‑SPARK, the premium line by Takara Tomy under its SYNERGENEX brand, has officially revealed the highly anticipated crossover kit: Xeno‑Rex Type‑02 — the standard operational variant of the ZOIDS Xeno‑Rex infused with EVA Unit‑02 aesthetics. Priced at ¥6,600 (~$45 USD), pre-orders are now open and the release is scheduled for late February 2026.
⚙️ Core-Lore & Hybrid Design
Beneath New Tokyo‑3, mysterious spherical metal life-forms known as “cores” were excavated in the Antarctic—a special NERV-managed energy source capable of resonating with EVA units. By merging this core technology with the ZW52 Xeno‑Rex, the Xeno‑Rex Type‑02 was born—a ferocious, EVA-synced Zoids weapon built for efficiency.
