When I went to meet someone stronger than me, I found that a world-roaming fighter, a dreamy cat girl, and a female swordsman using hidden weapons were all gathered at Wonder Festival 2024 [Summer].

At

the Wonder Festival 2024 [Summer], Japan's largest three-dimensional object sales event held on July 28, 2024, kits with various game character motifs are on sale and exhibited. So, we have compiled a list of fighting game characters that are popular with the Esports World Cup, which was held in July 2024 and has just been held, the world's largest participatory fighting game event, EVO 2024, and the Esports World Cup , which has become a hot topic for its huge prize money.

On display at Soichi Harigiri 's booth 'G-Rug (booth number: 5-21-06)' was Zangief from ' Street Fighter 6 '. The prototype was made by Soichi Harigiri, and it was sold as an unpainted resin kit for 20,000 yen.

Zangief shows off the muscles in his right arm. His victory line is 'Look at this body of steel!', and just as he does so, his red cyclone is wrapped in a strong, muscular armor. When you hear the sound of your opponent's lever turning, you'll find yourself caught up in a Screw Pile Driver.

At 'Omura Juliet Camera (6-22-05)', Manon, who also appears in 'Street Fighter 6', was on display. The prototype was made by

Matsui Kazuki . The price was 15,000 yen.

The kit is modeled after her victory pose. As her line 'Manon is strong...' suggests, her fighting style is a combination of judo and ballet, and her drive rush is extremely slow, but if she collects five medals, she can throw them with enough firepower to reduce her opponent's health by more than a third.

At sculptor Urushifield 's booth, 'Urushifield (2-10-03),' we encountered Gouki from 'Street Fighter 6.' The motif is the pose he makes when using the Magakatsu or Shun Goku Satsu.

Gouki has such a fierce, demonic expression that you can practically hear him say, 'Hmmmm!' Not only are his deeply carved wrinkles, muscles, and veins recreated in detail, but even his bristling hair, the fur he's wearing, and the rope wrapped around his arm.

Ryu from Street Fighter 6 was on display at

Jyo 's dealer booth, Opulent (2-07-11). It was huge, probably 50cm tall, and caught the attention of people passing by. An unpainted and unassembled kit was on sale at the venue for 65,000 yen. The copyright application was for Street Fighter 6, but the costume was from OUTFIT 2, which means it was the same bodysuit from previous games such as Street Fighter II.

The vest is torn and fluttering.

He looks at his opponent with a determined look in his eyes.

It appears that the face can be changed, and on display was a face sporting the familiar beard from 'Street Fighter 6' posing in a 'Concentrated!' pose.

Morrigan Aensland, which was on display at Eiji Nakayama's dealer booth '

Tetsutora-Ryu (4-30-06)', is a succubus that appears in the 'Vampire' series.

She is characterized by wings growing from her head and back, and a rather risqué outfit.

Morrigan has a slightly provocative look on her face. The price was 17,000 yen.

On display at the 'Sexy Android (4-08-20)' booth was Ramlethal Valentine from '

GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- '. The prototype was made by Kurosaki and was priced at 18,000 yen. Instead of a hat and cape, he is dressed in a black hoodie and has a mischievous, suggestive expression.

Also at the same booth was Noor from '

CAPCOM FIGHTING Jam .' She is a freezing cold diver who was hit by the Midnight Bliss cast by Maximoff and turned into a beautiful young girl. The prototype was made by Alkalineco .

Just like in the game, she is wearing a school swimsuit. However, she doesn't normally look like a little girl, but like a giant nautilus, so if you're curious about her appearance and want to play 'CAPCOM FIGHTING Jam,' be careful.

At the dealer booth '

D-Works (3-20-19)', a 1/7 scale sample of Felicia, a dreamy cat girl from the 'Vampire' series, was on display. The kit will be resold at Wonder Festival 2024 [Summer] and is priced at 17,000 yen.

Big eyes, flowing hair, white fur and sharp claws.

I took the photo from a slightly different angle.

At the booth of

Tofumodoki 's dealer '3B Kohei (1-30-01)', there was Geiz, a hidden character from Capcom's 2D robot fighting game ' Cyberbots '.

At

Ponzu 's dealer booth, 'Ajimido (3-03-05)', a prototype of Bedman from 'GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-' was on display. Perhaps because it was so huge and impactful, participants from overseas who passed by at the same time were whistling 'Oh ... hue' and taking pictures.

Delilah is protected by her bed. The bed that supported Bedman in previous series now moves independently to protect his sister, Delilah.

The hands on the bed also look huge and menacing, but they also look as if they are trying to wrap around Delilah as she sits on the bed to protect her.

When I went to the corporate booth area and visited the

Union Creative booth, a provisional output of Umeken from 'GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-' was on display. It is scheduled to be released in December 2024 for 26,400 yen including tax.

Baien glares and readies his sword.

Even the smallest details, such as the scars on his face and the design of his eyepatch, have been faithfully recreated in three dimensions.
