Godzilla figurinesThere were many types of Godzilla figurines, and they differed in terms of price, material, details, and mobility.
In terms of price, some were expensive and difficult for ordinary people to buy, such as the gold Godzilla figurine made by Kawakita Koichi on the 60th anniversary of Godzilla's birth, priced at 150 million yen (about 9 million yuan), and the pure gold Godzilla figurine made of 24K gold by Japanese jewelry store Tanaka Ginza for 150 million yen (about 7.5 million yuan). There were also relatively affordable ones, such as Bandai's S.H.M. "Godzilla vs. King Kong" 2021 edition, priced at 6000 yen (about 374 yuan), as well as the 2024 Godzilla four-limbed red lotus Godzilla model toy, priced at 36 yuan.
In terms of materials, there were pure gold figurines made of 24K gold, and there were also ones made of PVP, such as the Bandai S.H.M. figurines and the 2024 Godzilla model with four movable limbs.
In terms of details, different figurines had their own characteristics. For example, although the 2016 new Godzilla fourth form was very small, the details of the back and teeth were very detailed, and there were explosive special effects around it. The Godzilla figurine designed by Haiya toys was about 18 centimeters tall. Although it was not big, it was rich in details. Its multi-layer coating technology recreated Godzilla's white eyes, strong thighs and huge claws had a strong biological texture. Godzilla's sharp teeth and back were painted in grayish-blue and white. There was also a Godzilla model made from cardboard boxes. The monster's muscular details and the spiky structure on its back could be restored without being colored. If it was colored, the texture would be greatly improved.
In terms of mobility, the Godzilla figurine designed by Haiya toys had many ingenious joints. Its chest could be turned left and right, its shoulders and thighs could support multi-directional movements, its knee joints could be bent more than 90 degrees, and its tail could swing naturally with a multi-segment joint design. It also came with a pair of dragon claw hand shapes that could be replaced.

Naruto figurinesNaruto figurines had many types and different characteristics. In terms of price, there were relatively cheaper ones, such as the eight Naruto models, which started at 5.68 yuan per unit. There were discounts for large quantities. There were also higher prices, such as the domestic version of the water gate, which was about 24 centimeters high, with a reference price of more than 200 yuan. However, it was thought that there were some problems in workmanship, such as poor floor texture, poor color of special effects, obvious parting lines, etc.
In terms of styling and workmanship, the different figurines had obvious differences. For example, C4 Lin's figurines were out of proportion. The face carvings were evaluated as " netherworld dolls ". The lack of paint on the face caused the texture to be poor, but the pearl paint and pink streamers on the clothes were good. As for Hex Studio's first generation Naruto Thousand Hand Pillar figurines, there was no problem with the workmanship and styling. The face carvings were better than the first generation ones that had been shipped. There were also three replacement heads and two replacement bodies that could achieve different shapes. The heads of the wooden dragon and wooden man could be lit up. In addition, the Naruto Ninja World War series was set in the fourth Ninja World War. The entire set contained 12 regular models, and the big cylinder wood Teruya was a hidden model.

Hatsune figurinesThere were many types of Chuyin figurines. For example, the Mid-Autumn Moon Hatsune figurine created by Goodsmile Shanghai for China Hatsune Miku fans was a re-creation style and related doujin songs. It was quite popular. There was also Sakura Mirai's figurine from "Character Musical Series 01 Hatsune Mirai", drawn by artist Rella. It was a 1/6 scale model and was launched in January 2025. The starting budget was equivalent to a little over 1000 RMB. It was made with transparent parts to create twin ponytails. The overall shape was fresh and elegant, but there were problems with the proportion, such as the calves being too thin. In addition, most of the parts of the Bruko Hatsune Miku action figure had been prepared. Only a small number of skeletons and musical instrument accessories were needed to assemble. The details were in place. The hair had a gradual coating, and the size was larger than the regular small proportion action figure. The face carving was exquisite, and there were spare faces and water patches to choose from. The clothing was made of soft rubber material to improve the mobility, but the individual joints felt loose. There was a dedicated base but there were some areas that could be optimized. There was also the 1/7 Hatsune Miku EXPo 2023 VR -Costume Contest Grand Prize Design, which was officially released in March 2025 at a price of 18,920 yen (tax included, about 916 yuan). At the GoodSmile special exhibition, Hatsune Miku's representative figurines produced by GoodSmile Company and GoodSmile Racing could be seen. More than 100 Hatsune Miku figurines were collectively displayed at the Shanghai New International Exhibition Center.
