Digimon, short for "Digital Monsters", is a Japanese media franchise that spans virtual pet toys, anime, manga, video games and films. It began in 1997 as Digital Monster, a series of digital pets intended as the masculine counterpart to Tamagotchi, and centres on creatures who inhabit a digital world, a parallel universe that originated from Earth's communication networks. An early video game, Digimon World, was released in Japan in January 1999.

How to choose
Prize figures (Banpresto, Ichibansho) are pre-painted, fixed-pose and the most affordable way into a good sculpt. S.H.Figuarts and NXEDGE Style figures are articulated for posing. G.E.M. statues are the display centrepieces, and Lookup figures are small seated figures for desks and shelves. Figure-rise Standard kits are plastic model kits you assemble yourself. Availability changes as makers reissue and retire items, so check each product page for the current status.

Frequently asked questions
What is Digimon about?
Digimon centres on "Digital Monsters", creatures who inhabit a digital world, a parallel universe that originated from Earth's communication networks. It began in 1997 as a series of digital pets and grew into anime, manga, video games and films.
Who makes Digimon figures?
Bandai (including Banpresto, Ichibansho and Figure-rise Standard kits), MegaHouse (G.E.M., Lookup) and Tamashii Nations (S.H.Figuarts, NXEDGE Style) make the Digimon figures in this collection.
Which Digimon model kits are there?
Bandai Figure-rise Standard plastic model kits, including Amplified versions, are in this collection.
What is the difference between Lookup and G.E.M.?
Both are MegaHouse lines: Lookup figures are small seated figures, while G.E.M. figures are larger display statues.
Which Digimon figure should I get first?
For a first Digimon figure, Banpresto and Ichibansho prize figures are pre-painted, fixed-pose and affordable. Pick S.H.Figuarts or NXEDGE Style if you want to pose it, G.E.M. for a display statue, or a Figure-rise Standard kit if you want to build it yourself.
Are the Digimon figures here real or bootlegs?
They are real: P-Rex Hobby sells 100% authentic products. If you buy elsewhere, Tamashii Nations lists bootleg warning signs such as a box without the maker or brand logo, unnatural Japanese text on the package, and a price far below normal.
How long does US shipping take?
US orders arrive in 2–8 business days after dispatch, with duties prepaid.
