Furyu

Furyu – Prize Figures from Japan's Arcades

In Japanese game centers, a crane machine decides between luck and frustration – and the figures people fight over there often come from Furyu. The Japanese manufacturer specializes in so-called prize figures: collectible figures designed as arcade prizes and therefore built around what lands instantly – expressive poses, clean paintwork, and characters you recognize at a glance. These figures have long since made their way from the arcade into collectors' shelves worldwide. At Elbenwald you'll find a wide selection of Furyu figures spanning anime, games, and Vocaloid worlds – no crane-machine risk, and a considerably better hit rate.

What makes Furyu stand out?

The ideas behind its lines. The best example is the Noodle Stopper: figures that sit on the rim of the instant-noodle cup and weigh down the lid while the contents steep – an everyday gesture turned into one of Japan's best-known figure lines, which by now is just as happy to perch on monitors and shelf edges. Add the Tenitol line with its slender, larger silhouettes, the Trio-Try-iT figures, and the BiCute Bunnies in bunny style. Prize figures are traditionally priced below elaborate scale figures – a rewarding entry point into collecting, without skimping on detail. And because Furyu licenses across the whole of pop culture, almost every fandom finds its figure: from classics like Evangelion to current hits like Dandadan.
