Figure Japan Maniacs is a magazine that focuses on the world of figurines, which has now established itself as a popular hobby. Currently, most of the information on new figure products comes from the Web, but this book is a "reading material" that only a magazine can provide, unraveling the "world of figures" from various angles, from the dawn of time to the present day. The in-depth contents, which are of great documentary value, are introduced through a series of special features rather than focusing on a single theme. We hope that figure fans of various ages will deepen their knowledge of figures, such as "fashions" and "culture.
