Doraemon - Variarts (002) - 100 years before the birth of DORAEMON (Run'a)Doraemon · Run'a

Run'a presents a Variarts figure of Doraemon commemorating the 100 years before the birth of Doraemon, standing approximately 55mm tall. This small-scale figure celebrates a significant milestone in the history of one of Japan's most beloved characters. Doraemon is a robot cat from the 22nd century who travels back in time to help Nobita Nobi, a clumsy and often-bullied young boy. Equipped with a magical four-dimensional pocket, Doraemon can conjure thousands of futuristic gadgets to help Nobita navigate his daily struggles. The character was created by Fujiko F. Fujio and has become a cultural icon in Japan. The year 2013 marked 100 years before Doraemon's official birth date of September 3, 2112, a milestone celebrated across Japan with exhibitions and special merchandise. The birth date originates from the short film 2112: The Birth of Doraemon, which depicts Doraemon's origin at the Matsushiba Robot Factory, where a power surge caused by temporal terrorists resulted in Doraemon being struck by lightning during production. This Variarts figure from Run'a stands at approximately 55mm and serves as a commemorative piece tied to that centennial celebration.
