Pokémon Black & White’s Hilbert and Victini are joining Kotobukiya’s Pokémon ARTFX J figure line
A brand-new scale figure has been announced for the “ARTFX J” line from the manufacturer Kotobukiya, featuring the protagonist Hilbert from the video games Pokémon Black & White.
The “ARTFX J” series is a popular line of 1/8 scale, non-articulated statues that are known for their high quality and dynamic posing.
This new product will feature the male protagonist of the Unova region, Hilbert, known as Touya in the Japanese version, accompanied by the Mythical Pokémon, Victini.
The announcement of the new figure was accompanied by the reveal of a new, original illustration upon which the statue will be based.
To coincide with this new release, a re-production has also been confirmed for a popular, previously released figure from the same series.
The “ARTFX J Hilda with Tepig,” which features the female protagonist of Pokémon Black & White, Hilda, and the starter Pokémon Tepig, will be re-released.
This dual announcement will allow fans of the fifth-generation games to finally collect and display both of the Unova region’s main characters together as a pair.
The ARTFX J line of Pokémon figures is a long-running and beloved series for collectors, featuring dynamic sculptures based on new illustrations by the artist Hitoshi Ariga.
This new announcement adds another highly requested protagonist to the collection.
The specific release dates and pre-order windows for both the new “ARTFX J Hilbert with Victini” and the re-release of the “ARTFX J Hilda with Tepig” have not yet been revealed.
This information is scheduled to be announced at a later date.
