Trainer Red is back and he is going on a new adventure with his Charmander partner. Coming out of the ARTFX J Pokemon series these two are ready to battle their way to the Elite Four. This will mark the last of the three statues revealed by Kotobukiya that will finish the Original Starter Pokemon series. These characters are based on the remake of the original series with the GameBoy Advance as they come to life right from FireRed and LeafGreen. On top of that, this statue is brought to life from commissioned art from Hitoshi Ariga. Trainer Red will stand roughly 7.8 inches tall while Charmander clocks in at about 3 inches tall. He will come on a Pokémon styled base and Charmander will stand freely on it with not base peg. Pokemon fans will want to bring home the adventure with this amazingly detailed Pokemon statue.

Collectors will be happy to finally be able to add Charmander to their collection. With Trainer Red, Green, and Professor Oak all starters can be reunited once again. A lot of care was put into this series and you can see it in the high amounts of detail on both trainer and Pokemon. This ARTFX Trainer Red and Charmander Statue from Kotobukiya will be priced at $124.99. He is expected to go on his journey once again in November 2020 and pre-orders are live and can be found here. Be on the lookout for the other Pokemon statues already revealed from Kotobukiya so you can catch them all.

"Joining Kotobukiya's ARTFX J "Pokemon" collection is the Trainer Red with his Charmander buddy. Like the rest of the statues in the ARTFX J Pokemon series, the statue is based on specially commissioned art by Hitoshi Ariga, brought to life down to the finest details thanks to Kotobukiya's expert craftsmanship! Be sure to also take note of Charmander by Red's feet with his adorable smile! Much care was taken in fully recreating the silhouette and its proportions. The flame on its tail was made with clear parts, too."
