This Ichiban Kuji figure of Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist is produced by Banpresto as part of the Ichiban Kuji Hagane no Renkinjutsushi FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST lottery line. The figure stands approximately 130mm tall and was available through the Ichiban Kuji prize lottery system for 500 JPY per draw. Edward Elric is the protagonist of Fullmetal Alchemist, a series following two brothers who attempted the forbidden act of human transmutation to resurrect their deceased mother. The ritual went horribly wrong, costing Edward his left leg and right arm, which were replaced with automail prosthetics, and costing his brother Alphonse his entire body, his soul bound to a suit of armor. Edward becomes a State Alchemist at a young age, seeking the Philosopher's Stone to restore their bodies. The series explores themes of sacrifice, equivalent exchange, and the consequences of playing god. As an Ichiban Kuji prize figure, this release was obtainable exclusively through Banpresto's lottery system rather than standard retail channels, making it a collectible for fans of the franchise.
