>>11536418Japan is making more 1:18 figures than ever though, and they actually relaunched Microman (the early 00s figures are still some of the most poseable figures ever made without looking wonky like Revoltechs) figures when Figma/Revoltech/Figuarts took off too.
They're even doing 1:20 scale figures now, probably because they know that costs are getting too high and need to switch to cheaper to produce figures to keep audiences interested.
