Hello everyone. I'm Boss from Plastic Model Republic, and today I'm thinking about “seriousness and madness.

Boss is already saying something unsettling...... Hello everyone, I'm Saori from Plastic Model Republic!

What did they pursue so much? The shape? The number of parts?

It's exciting! Let's check it out right away!

The “Figure-rise LABO” series is a plastic model series started by BANDAI in 2018. The lineup is not mainly robots, but humanoid characters, especially beautiful girl characters, are the main focus.
“It's not a Figure or a Plastic Model.” “You make it, and it evolves with you” is the catchphrase, and while enjoying the fun of assembling it as a Plastic Model, it particularly pursues a strong commitment to coloring and “transparency.”
In the “Figure-rise LABO” series, the transparency technology used by BANDAI is fully utilized, and by adjusting the thickness of the surface color, the color underneath is made transparent to reproduce natural coloring. In other words, it is a series that is thoroughly committed to the coloring of details such as skin, clothes, and hair, more than conventional Plastic Models, and the poses also choose a scene that can express the character-like and cuteness.

The 'madness' they're talking about is this coloring technique that shows a tremendous commitment to detail, right?

Yes. It's a Plastic Model, but it pursues a transparent, natural color like a meticulously crafted Figure. That seems to be the seriousness and madness.
The number of parts is somewhat small for its appearance! It can be enjoyed sufficiently by beginners, and intermediates can assemble it without too much difficulty!

The 'Figure-rise LABO' series is attractive for its delicate coloring, so painting is basically unnecessary. It doesn't require glue, and despite its quality, it seems to have surprisingly few parts!

Cute. The colors are really beautiful~!

So the Figure-rise LABO series is a Plastic Model Series recommended for those who are a bit greedy, who want to enjoy the fun of assembling as a Plastic Model while maintaining the quality of a meticulously crafted Figure! Please take it in your hands and try out the beauty of its coloring!

That's it for now! Let's meet again in the next article~
See you later!
