Figma is a Japanese action figure line, featuring several figures based on Samus Aran. Other Samus figures have been produced by First 4 Figures, Yujin, JoyRide Studios and Jakks Pacific. Samus also has two amiibo.
Varia Suit and Zero Suit (Metroid: Other M)
A figure of the Varia Suit as it appears in Metroid: Other M was released in conjunction with Max Factory's other Zero Suit Samus statue (with a Metroid). An action figure of the same Zero Suit model previously released as a statue was teased at Winter Wonder Festival 2014. [1] A prototype version of the figure was finally shown at Winter Wonder Festival 2016.[2] It was finally released in early 2017. The figures are the most elaborate of the produced Samus figures to date as it features a multitude of accessories. Samus' left hand is interchangeable and can be a clenched fist, relaxed hand, giving a thumbs up and with the fingers spread. The Morph Ball, a posing stand, Arm Cannon tip with Missiles or beams equipped and two Beam shots, a single and double shot, are other accessories. The Zero Suit figure features the Paralyzer, Adam's helmet, interchangable hands and faces and a swappable head of the younger Samus with shorter hair and an earpiece. Both figures are very poseable.
Varia Suit (Metroid Prime 3: Corruption)
At the 2016 Winter Wonder Festival, another Varia Suit figure was teased, this time based on its appearance in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (as well as Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Metroid Prime Hunters and Metroid Prime: Federation Force). [3] Preorders for the figure began on April 18th, 2017.[4] This figure features a Morph Ball accessory and a changable Missile hatch on the Arm Cannon. Beginning from January 12, 2018, the Figma became available at Nintendo New York for $79.99 USD + tax.[5][6]
