Digimon - Figures

Digimon Adventure (Digimon: Digital Monsters in the US) was released in 1999 and is based on the tamagotchi-style virtual pet franchise of the same name. The anime became incredibly popular and was released in the US shortly after its Japanese run. A widely released theatrical film was released in some countries later the following year. The franchise began with just virtual pets, but with the incredibly successful simultaneous release of the anime series and a video game, Digimon has since secured its place in the anime world.

The following figures recreate some of the most popular and beloved characters from the franchise. While there are many unique figures available online, here are three popular figures that have been selected and featured below: the DigiColle Data3 box set, SH Figuarts Metal Garurumon, and GEM Series Taichi & Agumon 20th Anniversary Version.

Digimon Adventure DigiColle Data 3 Box Set

This Digimon figure set includes a random assortment of eight different small and cute Digimon. This set may include the following characters: Veemon, Wamumon, Gatomon, Patamon, Lopmon, Terriermon, Chikomon (and its evolution Chibimon), and Leafmon (and its evolution Minomon). These are all Digimon that debuted in the second installment of the Digimon anime series, Digimon Adventure 02: Tag Teamers . This set is ideal for fans who want to collect miniature figures of their favorite Digimon. While this set features Digimon from Digimon Adventure 02: Tag Teamers , there are other sets that also include popular Digimon from other parts of the anime series.

About the characters

The Digimon DigiColle 3 box set features many popular Digimon from the second installment of the Digimon universe, Digimon Adventure 02: Tag Players. They are all well-loved characters and widely known for their cute appearance. Some of them even appear in their baby form, making them even more adorable.

Metal Garurumon is the evolved form of Garurumon, the adult form of Gabumon. Garurumon is Matt's companion in the first installment of the series, Digimon Adventure . In appearance, he resembles a Siberian wolf, which explains many of his ice-type attacks. His fur is said to be as tough as Mythril. Metal Garurumon also makes an appearance in Digimon Adventure 02 None

Taichi Yagami is the main protagonist of Digimon Adventure and later appears as a supporting character in Digimon Adventure 2. He is an 8-year-old boy with a very playful and adventurous personality, often rushing into things only to find he hadn't thought things through enough. He is a natural leader for his group of friends, who look up to him.

Agumon is Taichi's companion. He is a powerful reptile who, although still on the path to adulthood, believes himself to be powerful and mighty. He cares deeply for Taichi and is very protective of him. He is one of the most recognizable Digimon.

About the Digimon series

The Digital World is a world that exists in parallel with the real world. This world was born with the first computer and is constantly expanding. It is linked to Earth's technology. Every time a new type of computer is created and the internet develops, the Digital World also expands. Digimon are manifestations that seem to represent different phenomena from the Digital World. A Digimon can never die in the Digital World, but they are vulnerable when they cross over to the real world. They are sentient beings made of data. Digimon can cross over to the real world whenever a portal opens. Humans are often unaware of the existence of these creatures and the Digital World as a whole.
