Wonder Festival 2018 Summer: Industry (Scale, Action, Bishoujo, Prize Figures) [Photo Report]

There's always a lot to look forward to in the life of an otaku - hotly anticipated new releases, long-awaited sequels and of course, stunning figures and merchandise based on your favorite characters! Twice a year, Wonder Festival, the world's biggest figure festival, brings both amateur creations and major releases together for a day of pure otaku heaven, and this winter's event certainly didn't disappoint.

Not only are tons of limited garage kits (many of which aren't even for sale) on display, fans can also get sneak peeks at future releases from major companies like Good Smile Company, Max Factory, Megahouse, Banpresto and more.

As always, this year's offerings included a huge range of amazing figures, whether scale, bishoujo, action, prize or otherwise. Just about everywhere was a figure or three bringing the Fate characters to life, a testament to the franchise's enduring popularity.

Saber/Nero Claudius: 3rd Ascension | Fate/Grand Order | Stronger
Berserker/Minamoto no Raikou | Fate/Grand Order | Bellfine
Rider of Black | Fate/Apocrypha | Aniplex
Berserker/Mysterious Heroine X Alter | Fate/Grand Order | Sentinel
Lancer/Medusa | Fate/Grand Order | Amakuni
Caster/Nitocris | Fate/Grand Order | Amakuni

Jump figures saw plenty of dynamic poses struck by classic characters like Goku and Luffy.

From Macross Frontier's very own Galactic Fairy to the amazing collab between Super Sonico and Hestia of Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, so many figures had their own unique allure. Fans listening hard enough might have even heard them calling out to take them home...
