Corry BanksDAFT PUNK Figures? Well this is fun.
Perhaps the most influential electronic music duo ever, Daft Punk, shall soon be immortalized in their classic space cadet electro funk suits.
Japanese toy manufacturers, Bandai, is known for making incredibly detailed and posable figures. Needless to say, Bandai figures are world renowned collectables. The Daft Punk figures will be no exception.
The Daft Punk figures are made with Bandai’s trademark technology that they refer to as “SHFiguarts.” Bandai describes the process and technique as “A new standard in action figures representing the state of the art of Bandai’s design technology. Designed to perfectly mimic the range of motion of the human body, the series name is a contraction of the concepts of “Simple Style” and “Heroic Action.” Standing roughly 14cm tall, the highly posable SHFiguarts figures are designed to feel like little treasures.”
So all you Daft Punk music heads, get your loot ready and head over to Bandai’s Daft Punk figures product pageto pre-order for those that reside in Japan. For those of us in the rest of the world copping these little guys may prove a bit more difficult. To find a distributor in your region head over to BlueFin Corp.
