How to Start Your Anime Figure Collection
Starting an anime figure collection can feel overwhelming. There are dozens of franchises, hundreds of characters, and prices ranging from ₪11 to over ₪150. This guide cuts through the noise and gives you a practical roadmap to building a collection you will love.
Pick Your First Franchise
The biggest mistake new collectors make is buying figures from every anime they like. Instead, start with one franchise and build depth. Our six franchise categories — Naruto, One Piece, Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, Genshin Impact, and Hatsune Miku — each have multiple figures ranging from budget to premium. Pick the series you love most and start there.
Set a Budget for Your First Purchase
Under ₪20 — Test the Waters
Figures like the Genshin Impact Paimon (₪11), Demon Slayer Kochou Shinobu (₪12), or Gojo Q Version Look Up (₪14) let you experience figure collecting without commitment. These are well-made pieces that look great on a desk.
₪20-50 — Serious Starter
This range gets you multi-character sets like the JJK Chibi Set (₪21, four figures) or dynamic pieces like the Naruto Rasengan Effect Figure (₪17). Best bang for your budget.
₪50+ — Premium First Piece
If you want your first figure to be a statement, the Demon Slayer Nezuko (₪76), One Piece Monkey D. Luffy (₪61), or Hatsune Miku Flower Fairy Noodle Stopper (₪74) are showstopper pieces.
Understanding Figure Materials
PVC is the most common material. It is durable, holds paint well, and allows for detailed sculpting. Most figures in our store are PVC. ABS is a harder plastic often used for joints or structural parts — you will see it labeled as PVC+ABS on some figures. Both are perfectly fine for display collecting.
Display Basics
Keep your figures out of direct sunlight — UV light fades colors over time, especially on PVC. A bookshelf, desk, or display cabinet all work well. Group figures by franchise for the best visual impact. Dust monthly with a soft brush or compressed air.
Common Beginner Mistakes
- Buying too many at once — start with 2-3 figures and see how you feel about collecting before going all in.
- Ignoring scale — a 6cm chibi next to a 27cm Sanji looks odd. Group similar-sized figures together.
- Forgetting display space — measure your shelf before buying. Nothing worse than a figure that does not fit.
Your First Order
Our recommendation for an absolute beginner: pick one affordable figure from your favorite franchise (under ₪20), and one mid-range piece (₪20-40) from the same series. This gives you an instant mini-collection without overspending. All figures ship with express delivery across Israel within 3 business days.
