The world’s first figure professional museum is located in Kansai. The name of the museum is Kaiyodo Figure Museum Kurokabe.
The Japanese is said to be skillful with a hand, but can understand.( *´艸`)
I think that there are many people imagining an animated cartoon if you hear the word “figures”. But not only that!
You can see a variety of figures in this museum. For example, vehicle, airplane, ancient organisms, insect, etc…
