Autumn in Japan is one of the most beautiful times of the year, with green leaves transforming into a collage of red, yellow, and orange.

Even if you live outside of Japan, though, you can still celebrate the fall season with these in-demand anime figurines (oh, and Racing Miku, of course) being released in Japan this autumn. Stretching from September to December, there’s at least one must-have figurine coming out every month, so let’s count down the top ten figurines you simply must get your hands on in fall 2015!

Palm Mate Series – Ace of Diamond: Ryosuke Kominato, Haruichi Kominato, Eijun Sawamura, and Kazuya Miyuki (Release: 9/15-12/15)

Autumn 2015 is a good time to be an Ace of Diamond fan. Megahouse is putting out not one, not two, not even three, but four anime figurines from the popular series, labeling them under the Palm Matte Series Line. The releases include Kazuya Miyuki (September), Eijun Sawamura (October), Haruichi Kominato (November), and Ryosuke Kominato (December), meaning that you can get one of the Seidou High School baseball players delivered to your door every month in the fall! Ryosuke Kominato seems to be especially in-demand right now, as he ranks high on Amazon Japan’s top selling list; Miyuki Kazuya figure searches are also on the rise. Each character is small enough to sit comfortably in the palm of your hand, so you can take your favorite team player everywhere you go.

Trailing just behind Levi Ackerman in the official Attack on Titan character popularity pole, Erwin (“Eyebrows”) Smith’s fan base has literally exploded this past year. If you’re a fan of the Commander of the Survey Corps, then you can’t afford to pass up this Erwin Smith figure: it’s incredibly detailed, comes with removable parts, and is the only full-sized figurine of Erwin Smith to date. Whether as a stand-alone sculpture, or a complement to your other Brave Act scouts, it’s a collector’s piece guaranteed to satisfy your titanic fandom (and freedom) cravings. Look for Erwin’s official release in October.

Pose your favorite characters any way you like with a variety of expressions—from silly, to fierce, to charming—to suit your taste.



Tales of Zestiria – Alisha 1/8 Complete Figure (Tales of Zestiria) (Release: 12/15)

If you loved the latest installment in the Tales series, then you’ll go head-over-heels for this 1/8-scale Alisha figure showcasing the Princess of the Highland empire in all her glory.

Whether in your cabinet or on your shelf, Alisha is a great addition—don’t miss out!

Statue Legend – Tokyo Ghoul: Uta (Release: 10/15)

Turns out Tokyo Ghoul fans have twice as many reasons to be excited for the fall. In addition to the release of the Ken Kaneki statuette by ARTFX J, we’re also getting a wickedly cool collector’s piece by master craftsman, Statue Legend. Even sitting down, this Tokyo Ghoul Uta figure is almost 8 inches tall, with all of his tattoos and clothing replicated with painstaking accuracy. Keep an eye out for the famed “No Face” and mask salesman to hit retailer shelves in late October.
