Colossal Titan Attack on Titan - Figures

The Attack on Titan series is a popular manga series created by Hajime Isayama and published in late 2009. The manga attracted an incredible number of readers, which eventually led to an anime adaptation that aired in April 2013. After the first season aired, the Attack on Titan franchise became a global phenomenon, resulting in the production of several anime seasons. Currently, thirty tankoban volumes of the manga have been published, as well as four seasons of the anime adaptation, several video games, and various other media projects have been produced.

With the success of the franchise, a wide range of products has been created to satisfy fans' desire for merchandise. One of the most popular types of merchandise that fans enjoy collecting are figures of the series' popular characters. One of the most recognizable characters in the series is the Colossal Titan , who is perhaps almost as recognizable as the protagonist, Eren Yeager . Of the handful of Colossal Titan figures, two of the most popular include the "Nendoroid Colossal Titan & Attack on Titan Playset" and the "BE@RBRICK 1000% Colossal Titan | Attack on Titan."

Nendoroid Colossal Titan and Attack on Titan Game Figure

This Nendoroid figure set from the Good Smile Company line takes the gigantic Colossal Titan and shrinks it down to a tiny ten-centimeter-tall figure. Like all other entries in the Nendoroid figure line, this recreation of the Colossal Titan uses a simplified chibi-style design that features a larger head, smaller body, and shortened limbs. Despite its simplified appearance, this figure is still sculpted with great detail.

This set also includes a variety of accessories. In addition to the Colossal Titan figure itself, two separate Titan miniatures are also included. Additionally, a variety of human miniatures also adds extra variety to this set. Each miniature is unique and represents both civilians living within the walls and members of the military fighting the Titans.

BE@RBRICK 1000% Colossal Titan | Attack on Titan figure

This unique figure is a massive entry in Medicom Toy's BE@RBRICK series of figures, which are designed to resemble a fusion between a teddy bear and Medicom's Kubrick figures. This recreation of the Colossal Titan features many of the standard cosmetic features of a BE@RBRICK figure, such as the two large ears found on its head—a feature absent from the Titan's original design—a large, chubby belly, and simple joints that allow the user to move the figure's limbs back and forth. While the colors and details of BE@RBRICK figures are much simpler than others on the market, this entry makes up for it in size. This Colossal Titan stands at 700 millimeters (approximately 27.6 inches), which would allow it to tower over almost any other figure in your collection.

About the Colossal Titan

The Colossal Titan is one of the Nine Titans, created by the death of the first person to wield the Titan powers, Ymir Fritz. The following description is a brief overview of the Colossal Titan and its abilities.

Background

After Ymir Fritz's death, the ability to transform into Titans was shared with nine people, creating the Nine Titans. With the exception of the Attack Titan and the Founding Titan, Marley controlled all of the Nine Titans, including the Colossal Titan. In an attempt to reclaim the powers of the other two Titans, Marley sent his unit of Warriors to locate and forcibly take the owners of the individual powers. This group of Warriors included Annie Leonhart , Reiner Braun, and Bertolt Hoover, the heir to the Colossal Titan at the time.

Special Abilities

Although all Titans are considered giants by normal human proportions, the Colossal Titan's size dwarfs even the largest standard Titan, standing sixty meters tall. The Titan's incredible size grants it considerable destructive potential, which is used to great effect when breaking through walls. Aside from its size, this Titan also possesses other unique abilities. Two of these abilities are the incredible amount of energy released when its user transforms and an increased ability to generate steam while transformed.

Other important characters in Attack on Titan

Although Bertolt, and thus the Colossus Titan, is aligned with Annie and Reiner, two other notable characters have interesting encounters with the Colossus Titan. These two characters are Eren Yeager and Armin Arlert.

Eren Yeager

Eren is the main protagonist of Attack on Titan and was present when the Colossus Titan first breached the Walls. From that day on, Eren became obsessed with eliminating the Titans for destroying his home. Eren later encounters the Colossus Titan again after graduating from the Training Corps, but is unable to deliver the final blow. Eventually, however, Eren succeeds in defeating Bertolt's Colossus Titan by extracting Bertolt from the Titan's body and allowing Armin to inherit the Titan's power.

Armin Arlert

Armin, like Mikasa Ackerman , is one of Eren's childhood friends and the one who first sparked Eren's interest in the outside world. As a member of the Survey Corps, he is renowned for his strategic abilities and is often asked to create plans for the rest of his unit. Armin is also the first person to notice that the Colossal Titan's ability to create steam causes muscle loss, leading to a strategy to defeat the enormous Titan. Although Armin is nearly killed in the process, Eren convinces Captain Levi Ackerman to use a Titan injection vial on Armin, allowing him to inherit Bertolt's Colossal Titan power.
