OtapediaZinogre Monster Hunter - Figures

The main Monster Hunter franchise is a series of action role-playing games that are produced and published by Capcom. The first game of the series was released for the PlayStation 2 in 2004 and has players take down monstrous creatures that are many times larger than the avatars they control. The gameplay of each mainline Monster Hunter game usually has players complete various hunting and gathering quests to obtain important materials that allow them to upgrade their armor and weapons, allowing them to tackle even more powerful monsters. Due to the overwhelming success of Monster Hunter, a variety of different kinds of merchandise has been produced and ranges from apparel to plushies and, of course, figures. These figures are often inspired by the many unique monsters that players fight against. One such monster is Zinogre, a Fanged Wyvern that was first seen in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. Some of the most popular figures of Zinogre include the “Capcom Figure Builder Creators Model: Monster Hunter Thunder Wolf Wyvern Zinogre (Re-run)”, the “Capcom Figure Builder Monster Hunter Standard Model Plus Vol. 17 Box Set”, and the “Pop! Games: Monster Hunter - Zinogre”.

Capcom Figure Builder Creators Model: Monster Hunter Thunder Wolf Wyvern Zinogre Figure (Re-Run)

This figure from Capcom’s Figure Builder Creators Model line features the terrifying Zinogre perched on top of a mossy stone cliff on all four of its legs. Its mouth is wide open, which makes it look like it is letting out a deafening roar to intimidate its next opponent. Zinogre’s long, spiky tail can be seen hanging behind its massive body. An incredible amount of detail is put into this figure in particular, most notably in Zinogre’s fur, scales, and spikes. While the figure itself is quite detailed, it is incredibly colorful as well. Various shades of gold and turquoise, Zinogre’s characteristic colors, are painted all over the Wyvern and are accented by its light pink mouth. All in all, this figure is moderately sized and reasonably priced, so it is perfect for Monster Hunter fans that like Zinogre in particular.

Capcom Figure Builder Monster Hunter Standard Model Plus Vol. 17 Box Set

This box set from Capcom’s Figure Builder series features 6 randomly selected figures from a specific lineup of different monsters. Since every figure in this series is blind-boxed, it is possible that duplicates of the same monster will be in any order. That said, each figure is fairly large for the price of the box set. The version of Zinogre that appears in this set is posed standing with its body low and its tail raised up as if it were preparing to attack. Despite being considerably smaller than the previous figure, it still has a decent amount of detail, particularly in the wavy fur along its back and scales on its legs. This volume also includes Namilelle, Nightshade Paolumu, Acidic Glavenus, Shara Ishvalda, Yian Garuga, and a clear version of Zinogre as a bonus.

  • Manufacturer: Capcom
  • Specifications: Set of 6 random painted, non-articulated, non-scale PVC and ABS figures

Pop! Games: Monster Hunter - Zinogre Figure

This figure from Funko’s popular Pop! Games line takes the terrifying Zinogre and turns it into a cute, chibi-style collectible figure. Although its large head and small body makes this take on Zinogre much less threatening, it still has all of the monster’s lethal weapons, like its gaping jaws filled with teeth, huge horns, and sharp claws. Like many other Funko Pop! figures, this version of Zinogre has a simple, vibrant color scheme, opting for deep, saturated shades of yellow and turquoise compared to the original monster’s more complex design.

  • Manufacturer: Funko, LLC
  • Specifications: Painted, non-articulated, non-scale vinyl figure

About Zinogre

Zinogre is a Fanged Wyvern from the Monster Hunter series and has appeared in several mainline games and multiple different spin-offs. It is a massive beast with deadly claws, teeth, and tail. Despite Zinogre’s incredible size, it is surprisingly agile, which makes it very adept at both ground and aerial combat, where it can make swift work of its target. Zinogre’s most unique ability is its affinity for electricity. When in battle, it can call Thunderbugs to it, which acts as a source of electricity that Zinogre can then use against its target. Like many other monsters, there are multiple variants of Zinogre that have appeared throughout several Monster Hunter games. These variants are named Thunderlord Zinogre, Howling Zinogre, Immortal Zinogre, and FFBE Zinogre.

Other Important Monster Hunter Characters

One type of creature that Zinogre is often seen with are Thunderbugs. These two have formed a symbiotic relationship that involves the Thunderbugs providing electricity to Zinogre in exchange for protection against other predators. Zinogre can also get into Turf Wars with a variety of different monsters, including Brachydios, Glavenus, Rathalos, and Yian Garuga. Other notable creatures that are often associated with Zinogre are Gargwa and Aptonoth, which are often considered to be prey for Zinogre and many other monsters.
