aniTime started from something very simple.
We are collectors.
The founding team behind aniTime grew up building model kits, collecting Gundam, opening blind boxes, and enjoying the small moments that make collecting special. The excitement of finding a piece you love, the patience of waiting for a release, and the satisfaction of adding something meaningful to your shelf.
We wanted to bring that feeling into real life.
Based in Richmond, British Columbia, aniTime was created as a space where collectors feel understood. Not rushed. Not pressured. Just a place where people who love figures, puzzles, and design can take their time and enjoy the journey.
We are collectors first, and retailers second.

Built by Passion, Backed by Experience
Behind aniTime is a team that blends genuine fandom with years of professional experience in the global collectibles and entertainment industry.
Our background allows us to see both sides of the hobby: the excitement of the find and the high standards collectors expect. We use our industry expertise to hand-pick every item, ensuring our shop reflects the quality and craftsmanship our community deserves.
We are especially proud to be an official partner of Azone and Tiny 微影, working directly with brands we trust to bring you authentic, carefully handled pieces for your collection.

What We Believe In
We believe collecting should feel enjoyable and personal.
We believe quality matters more than hype.
We believe every collector is different, whether you are buying your first blind box, following pre orders closely, or slowly building a collection that reflects your taste over time.
Every product we bring into aniTime is chosen with the same mindset we use for our own collections. Would we proudly display it ourselves? Would we recommend it to a friend? If the answer is no, it does not make it onto our shelves.
