Crafting Excellence: Our Process

Bringing a figure from abstract concept to a tangible, collectible masterpiece is a meticulous journey at Mirai Koubou. Our integrated process is a fusion of cutting-edge technology and traditional craftsmanship, ensuring that every stage, from initial digital sculpting to final packaging, meets our exacting standards for quality and fidelity.

Concept & Digital Sculpting

The journey begins with translating 2D character designs and illustrations into highly detailed, production-ready 3D models. Our skilled digital sculptors work closely with licensors to capture the character's likeness, pose, and intricate details with absolute precision, preparing the model for physical prototyping and mold creation.

Prototyping & Molding

Physical prototypes are generated from the approved 3D data using advanced 3D printing or traditional sculpting. These prototypes are refined by hand until perfection is achieved. Highly durable, precision-engineered steel injection molds are then developed from these prototypes, crucial for mass production accuracy.

Injection Molding

Utilizing our state-of-the-art injection molding machines, high-grade PVC and ABS plastics are injected into the precision molds under high pressure. This process produces figure parts with incredible accuracy, consistency, and the structural integrity required for delicate details.

Painting & Assembly

After molding, parts are prepared for painting. Our expert painters use airbrushes and fine brushes for detailed work, applying layers of paint, shading, and washes to bring the character to life. Parts are then carefully assembled by hand by our skilled team, often requiring specialized techniques for complex figures.

Quality Control

Rigorous inspection is performed at multiple stages throughout the process – after molding, after painting, and after assembly. Each figure is checked for flawless finish, precise color application, structural integrity, and adherence to the approved prototype, ensuring only the best reach collectors.

Packaging & Logistics

Once figures pass final quality control, they are carefully placed into protective packaging designed to showcase the product while ensuring it arrives safely. Our logistics team then handles shipping, coordinating distribution to partners and collectors worldwide.

Our Unwavering Commitment to Quality

Quality is not just a step in our process; it is the cornerstone of every Mirai Koubou figure we produce. Our comprehensive quality control system is integrated throughout the production lifecycle, from the moment raw materials arrive at our facility to the final inspection before a figure is boxed. We believe that exceptional quality is what elevates a collectible from a toy to a cherished piece of art.
