Union Creative opened pre-orders for its upcoming Monster Hunter Rise figures of Hinoa and Minoto on its website. The figures will be available separately at 17,600 yen each. People residing outside Japan can also order via the WorldShopping widget at around $112.10.
Most of the prior figures featuring the Monster Hunter series were focused on monsters like Rathalos, Rathian, and Tigrex. These ones will particularly feature the characters who act as the respective quest receptionists in the Kamura Village and its guild. However, these figures will depict the characters with more anime-like faces as opposed to the actual game.
Both figures will come pre-painted with each set having its own pedestal stand. Minoto’s figure will have an approximate total height of 26 cm (~10.24 in), but Hinoa’s figure will be measured slightly taller at around 27 cm (~10.63 in) since it includes her longer hair accessory. As another side note, while Minoto has the exact same name in Japanese, Hinoa is alternatively known in the country as Hinoe.
Here are some of the sample images for the upcoming figures:
Union Creative will close the pre-order period for the Monster Hunter Rise figures of Hinoa and Minoto on July 18, 2024. It will formally release the figures in December 2024.
