PokéShiny Finds
Pokémon Figure Collection (US)
“Great Trainers Need Great Pokémon!” — Tomy's US line that no one had ever catalogued in full. PokéFig publishes it first.
The Pokémon Figure Collection is The Pokémon Company International's English-language release of Takara Tomy's Monster Collection (MonColle) — the ~5 cm figures sold at Pokémon Center in Japan. Between 2010 and 2012, TPCi re-boxed them in a blister (©2012) with a 17-language back and sold them across the US, Latin America (Argentina, Mexico) and Europe. It's a short, scattered, poorly-documented line: other public sources list only 44, flagged as an "incomplete" roster. A complete public list never existed — until now: PokéFig documents 57 figures with 38 UPC barcodes verified one by one.
How the line is structured
The box color tells you the generation.
How to tell it apart
This one. TPCi B/W-box re-release, 2010-2012. Item 703-04XXX, UPC prefix 820650.
Tomy's original Japanese line. Japanese box and spine.
Old US Gen 1-2 box (PokéFig already has 251). Separate line.
Watch the nickname: this 2012 B/W box is sometimes called “PCNY”, but the REAL PCNY figures were exclusives of the NYC physical store (2001-2005, e.g. Blaziken #006) — a different line and era. This one is identified by item 703-04XXX + UPC 820650, not by “PCNY”.
