Collectible figures are a fascinating part of popular culture. From being merely an idea on paper to becoming a physical object in our hands, the creation process of these figures is an art form in itself. In this blog post, we will dive into how collectible figures go from concept to reality and look at some examples from Robottoo.
From idea to design
The process often begins with an idea or concept based on a character from a popular series, movie, or video game. Take, for example, the impressive Dan da dan Jiji Transformed Revoltech Action Figure. Before this figure could move onto your shelf, it was a detailed sketch that captured the character's unique characteristics.
Production and manufacturing
Once the concept is ready, manufacturing begins. This step involves a series of detailed processes, including 3D modeling and prototyping. Material selection is also crucial to ensure the figure's durability and that it maintains the aesthetic vision. The precision-crafted details on the Tom & Jerry Jerry & Tuffy Cheese Party Vinyl Piggy Bank are a perfect example of this craftsmanship.
Final details and painting
Once production is complete, one of the most time-consuming steps begins: painting and decoration. Here, both hand-painting and machine-painting are used to give the figure its final details. Every small detail must be correct to do justice to the original design.
