Max Factory has released a miniature bike for use with its Figma line of character figurines, as part of the Figma’s anniversary celebrations.
Assembly is a simple enough task, as it is merely a standard plamo:
“C’mon Kyon, hurry up and put it together”
“Aye aye”
Given the poseability of Figmas, a wide variety of characters can ride the bike.
The included stand allows for some interesting poses.
Not content with such a crude-looking bike, Lelouch Britannia opts for a BMX model from a random hobby shop.
“Lelouch Britannia commands you all to wear helmets while riding a bicycle!”
The bicycles are released to celebrate the Figma’s anniversary, and are being distributed free with all Figma purchases during the duration of the campaign (until the 22nd of February). Several different colored versions are available, with each being distributed by specific shops or events (the web shop version is due to be announced soon).
More screens available at Asumanga. Via Akiba Hobby.

Those pics were tooo funny.
Indeed, that was such an awesome pic + comment XD. I really like pretty much all of them though...I suck because I don't have the funds to collect much of anything these days :/.
I was considering ignoring this post about a cheesy plastic McDonald's toy bicycle, but I'm glad I changed my mind (I wanted to see what others had to say about said cheesy bicycle).
Best post of 2009!
I'll go for the BMX with Lulu there, it's much better, but hey free stuff is good stuff as they say.
Figma looks like so much fun, wish I could buy them in Malaysia..... =(
Check dannychoo posts, lots of users from Malaysia, and where to buy locally.
Here; http://www.thefiguremall.com/
That's where i bought my Shana figma and pre-ordered Cheerleader Asahina.

Oh gawds the face on the both of 'em xD
Still, love the BMX in Lelouch's.
I think you forgot to mention this but you don't actually need to buy a figma if you want the bicycles. You can buy them on their own while the stock last.
Well, painting the bike yourself will make it look better
And how much are they gonna charge for this "amazing" bike?
0_o i've seen Dollar store toy bikes that look better than that!
geez. the bag it came it has a better quality.
Don't think they really even needed to make a bike, much less such a poorly detailed and designed one. Perhaps a little more color and flair would add to it's appeal.
They're giving it for free for every purchase of figma, so please don't expect a fully painted bike..
hmm. wonder where the hell in the philippines i could buy a figma. D:.
always wanted to at least have 1 of those.
try Greattoysonline or wasabi toys
lol wut, itsuki and kyon... then lulu... and wut. bikes just got a little gayer.
need figma cars
Couldnt you just buy a nice model car and stick your figma in :P
do i smell a batmobile? :D
HAHAHAHA, your comment on Lelouch is hilarious =P... especially love the pose.
LOL@ Kyon & Koizumi... hehehehe Koizumi must've liked that ^^...
and also honourable mentions to Saber... riding a bike and holding a sword at the same time. Hehehe, bet it's more difficult than her usual mount. Wait, that's Rider, not Saber...
“Lelouch Britannia commands you all to wear helmets while riding a bicycle!”
Well done good sir, well done.
An all green bike is far too tacky for Lelouch. How will he joyously ride to Suzaku's house to redecorate in that thing, get fucking real.
Saber looks hilarious with that look on her face.
Then when saw Kyon and Itsuki I fell off my chair.
lmao! same reaction here
Funny, but not that interesting. Do they have a guitar accesory? I´d love to have one for Miku
When I visited the official Kaiyodo shop in Akiba they had various revoltech figures wailing on the Krauser figure's guitar. Totally awesome.
... u can always buy the "Witch" version Yuki Figma...
it comes with a guitar..
and a tea set...
along with a cat... xDDD
i've got one. <3
I wanna get that, but it's really expensive at the anime shop i go to D:
Just order it online. Shipping might hurt a little though.
I had forgotten about the Yuki Witch version until I randomly found it online last night. I might get it...
The 99th Emperor of Britannia, Lelouch Vi Britannia, rides not some generic BMX bike! Only a BMW Cruise Bike is fit for the sovereign!
Lelouch has just proved that BMX >>>>>>>> Knightmare Frames.
quote Lelouch, final picture, in giant rainbow text:
"FAAAABULOUS"
somebody should shoop the last picture with that
lol saber on bike. that's hilarious
ROFL
Lelouch:“Lelouch Britannia commands you all to wear helmets while riding a bicycle!”
then 2nd pic
Lelouch watch out for that Knightmare Frame!!!
Lelouch:Oh, Sh---
Pretty lame. I'd rather have 1/12 scale scooters and motorcycles from different manufacturers.
that bike is pretty crude and nasty. max factory should know better that people want quality, not something I could find in a cheap gashpon.
It's just a freebie after all. Aren't there quality die cast models compatible with them?
Can't wait for that to come out.
too bad I have to buy online to use it. Oh well. Hayate isn't out here yet anyway
Where can I get me some bikes and scooters fit for a figma?
Lol at the kyon itsuki pic, wonder when the mp3 player headphones come out.
Saber putting her B rank Riding Skill to use.
also, Nagato walkin with her bike. awesome
This entry makes me laugh at 5am. ^^
Lelouch isn't on a BMX, he is on a BMW Q6.S
Yeah, the BMW is a downhill/mountain bike hybrid. BMX bikes typically don't have the lovely shocks you can see in Lelouch's photos.
Yes, I'm replying to a five month old post to elaborate on a discrepancy in two pictures. I like mountain biking. Sue me.
