Figure-rise

Bandai's Figure-rise line is a collection of plastic model kits that focus primarily on characters from various anime, manga, and video games, rather than the mobile suits and vehicles typically associated with the Gunpla (Gundam Plastic Models) lines. Unlike traditional action figures, Figure-rise kits come unassembled and unpainted, providing enthusiasts with the joy and challenge of building their figures from the ground up. You can buy Bandai figure rise model kits online at P-Rex Hobby :

History: Bandai 

Figure-rise is a plastic model kit series by Bandai Spirits, designed to bring anime and tokusatsu characters to life through hands-on building. Unlike traditional action figures, these kits allow fans to assemble detailed, articulated characters from series like Dragon Ball, Kamen Rider, and Digimon. Easy to build with no glue or paint required, Figure-rise kits combine the fun of model building with the satisfaction of creating your favorite heroes in dynamic poses.

Detailed Character Models

The Figure-rise series includes detailed models of characters from a wide range of franchises, such as "Dragon Ball Z," "Naruto," "One Piece," and more. These kits are designed to capture the essence and details of each character, from facial expressions to clothing textures, providing a highly accurate representation.

Articulation and Posability

One of the hallmark features of the Figure-rise kits is their emphasis on articulation. The figures often include multiple points of articulation, allowing builders to pose their characters in a variety of dynamic positions. This makes them highly desirable for collectors who enjoy creating dynamic displays or recreating scenes from their favorite series.

Accessories and Special Features

Many Figure-rise kits come with a range of accessories, including interchangeable hands, facial expressions, effect parts for action scenes, and character-specific items or weapons. These additions enhance the displayability of the figures and offer fans the opportunity to customize their models to their liking.

No Glue Required

Like Bandai's Gunpla kits, you can buy Bandai figure rise online. These figures are designed to be snapped together without the need for glue, making them accessible to hobbyists of all skill levels. However, some parts may require stickers or painting to be completely accurate to their on-screen counterparts.

Advanced Kits: Figure-rise Standard and Figure-rise Mechanics

The Figure-rise line is divided into sub-categories, such as Figure-rise Standard, which focuses on character models, and Figure-rise Mechanics, which offers a look into the mechanical designs within characters, like the internal structures of androids from "Dragon Ball Z." These subdivisions cater to both fans of character models and those interested in the technical aspects of their favorite characters.

In summary, the Figure-rise line expands Bandai's model kit offerings into the realm of character figures, providing fans with a hands-on way to engage with their favorite anime and video game characters through the process of building and customizing detailed models.
