Character figures
Character figures developed from approved front, side and back artwork.
Product category
Develop a character figure from front, side and back views
A strong illustration still needs decisions about volume, balance, pose, material, surface finish and packaging before it becomes a physical collectible.

What can be developed in this category
Display collectibles
Desk and shelf pieces planned around base stability, pose and surface protection.
Mini figures
Small formats where silhouette and a controlled number of details matter more than adding everything.
Set and blind-box concepts
Multiple designs that require consistent scale, packaging, identification and assortment planning.
Specifications that affect appearance, cost and lead time
3D views and part structure
Front artwork does not define the back, depth, undercuts or how separate parts connect.
Pose and balance
Standing points, center of gravity and base design must be resolved before tooling.
Material and finish
Material route, color separation, paint, printing and surface effects change cost and risk.
Protection
Protruding parts, rub points and the base determine the tray and outer-box structure.
Use the prototype to lock pose, assembly and visible finish
A collectible figure needs a controlled physical reference before tooling, decoration and packing can be compared responsibly.
Geometry before surface finish
Confirm silhouette, pose, contact points, part splits and base relationship before treating paint or printing as the main problem. A balanced rendering does not prove a stable assembled object.
Decoration by location
Color references, masks, printed details and acceptable visual boundaries should be recorded by part and view. Small faces and edge areas need closer review than broad flat surfaces.
Check packaging with the assembled product
Trays and boxes must follow approved product dimensions, protruding parts and assembly instructions. Product protection, presentation and carton volume are reviewed together before bulk packing.
What to confirm before sampling
Tell us the artwork, intended use, quantity by design, packaging and receiving date. We will confirm the workable format, sample route and quotation basis.

What to send for an initial review
You do not need a finished technical pack. Send what is available and mark unknown items clearly.

- Target height or scale
- Pose and base preference
- Quantity by design
- Finish and color references
- Display box or shipping requirements
From product review to sampling, QC and packing
We review the artwork, use, size and quantity before planning the sample. Once the sample is approved, the written specification guides production, QC, packing and delivery.
Discuss this productQuestions buyers ask about this category
Can a 2D design become a figure?
Yes, but all hidden angles, thickness, balance and part divisions must be defined during development.
What normally requires tooling?
Many molded figure routes need model, master and tooling work; the exact route depends on material, size, quantity and detail.
Why plan packaging early?
The pose, base and protruding parts determine tray clearance, box size and protection against rubbing or breakage.
