Figures in a fixed scale to the original: 1/7 means the figure is one seventh the size of the character. Painted, on a base, mostly made to preorder.

More about Scale Figures

What the scale tells you

A scale figure renders the character's size in a fixed ratio. A character 1.60 m tall measures about 20 cm in 1/8, just under 23 cm in 1/7, about 27 cm in 1/6 and 40 cm in 1/4. That way, figures of the same scale stand together on the shelf in proportion.

How they are made

A sculptor models the prototype, by hand or digitally; the maker casts it in PVC and ABS and paints every figure. Kotobukiya, Alter, Good Smile Company, FREEing and Native usually announce their figures months before they ship and produce the quantity that was preordered.

Scale, non-scale, prize

Prize figures are made as prizes for Japanese claw machines; non-scale figures such as Pop Up Parade have no fixed scale. Scale figures are the most elaborate of the three: more parts, finer paintwork, often a base designed for the figure.
