Cliff Uchida's Top Toys of 2024

Bay Area toy collector/toy enthusiast and model kit builder CLIFF UCHIDA returns to our annual Top Toys serial feature, with a splendid set of toys and model kits to share!



"(I) focus primarily on video game and anime themed figures. Although I don't buy as much these days compared to the past years (I have to really pick and choose which ones to purchase), I'm always on the look out for anything that's cute, funny, unique or just plain cool.

You can follow me on my Instagram page for more pictures and reviews of the figures I collect along with the occasional model kit builds

TOP TOY OF 2024 - #10: Backyard Battalion figure set from Backyard Battalion

CLIFF UCHIDA: A very creative and cute take on the classic green army man figures.







TOP TOY OF 2024 - #9: 30 Minutes Fantasy Liber Holy Knight from Bandai

CLIFF UCHIDA: The next series of highly customizable model kits from Bandai (similar to their 30 Minutes Missions and 30 Minutes Sisters model kits) this fantasy inspired model kit boasts extremely high articulation and customization.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #8: Bonnie the Dinosaur mini figure from Neil Ewing

CLIFF UCHIDA: This is a cute little dinosaur figure. I love the colors used for this.







TOP TOY OF 2024 - #7: Sousai Shojo Teien Emma Koishikawa from Kotobukiya

CLIFF UCHIDA: Another cute model kit in Kotobukiya's Sousai Shojo Teien series, this model kit has quite a lot of accessories and is actually noticeably shorter than the other girls in this series.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #6: Nori Click figure from Pop Mart's Spotlight 13 anniversary blind box series

CLIFF UCHIDA: Another fashionably cute Nori figure from Pop Mart.

I'm a big fan of @aragon_49s adorable Nori characters so getting this was a no-brainer. I just love the vintage looking clothing and camera on this figure.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #5: Chikuwa sofubi figure from Good Smile Company

CLIFF UCHIDA: This adorable little guy from the anime Yuru Camp as depicted in the season 1 episode where the all the girls go on a Christmas camping trip.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #4: Sea of Thieves Pirate Ron (Deluxe set) from Toy Pizza

CLIFF UCHIDA: Another new action figure from Toy Pizza, they continue to knock it out of the park with this cool looking pirate guy. The articulation feels much nicer than their previous articulated figure.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #3: Frieren and Mimic figure set from Good Smile Company

CLIFF UCHIDA: A fun and unique figure set from the anime Frieren: Beyond Journey's End. This anime has become one of my absolute favorites and I wanted something unique to show my love for this series.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #2: Torohachi model kit from Bandai

CLIFF UCHIDA: A very cool and unique model kit of the petite mobile suit as seen in the anime Gundam Unicorn.






TOP TOY OF 2024 - #1: Torumekian Ship Soldier action figure from Kaiyodo

CLIFF UCHIDA: A very well detailed action figure based on the Torumekian Ship Soldier as seen in the anime movie Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. You don't see much merchandise like this for Nausicaa, let alone for any of the Torumekian soldiers, so this was a very cool surprise to see this (and the Torumekian commando) getting their action figures.






I like that Cliff does "size references" for his collection (on instagram.com/clifftron1986), and enjoy seeing toys "interacting" with one another! Thanks for sharing, Cliff!
