World Collectable Figure, WCF for short, is a series produced by Banpresto and seems to be focused on worldwide well-known animated series.
This figure series represents each character as a figure of about 7 cm tall. Despite the small format, character rendering is of higher quality than other regular SD figure series, partly due to the fact that it does not obey the regular SD rule of a head-body ratio of 1:3, but chose a more "realistic" scaling of 1:4. They also aren't produced with scaling in mind as every adult is 7 cm tall and children or little characters are about 5 cm tall, regardless of their actual sizes. Each animated series is broken into several parts of 8 figure sets.
The very first introduction of One Piece WCF in November 2009 came with One Piece Strong World (6 parts), the 10th theatrical movie of One Piece, and then the figure series went on with the regular One Piece series and some special issues. Each figure has a matricule, formatted as an ID of 2 letters followed by a number.
| Series | Matricule Format | Identifier Meaning | Numbering Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strong World series | MV0xx | MV for movie | 001 to 048 |
| One Piece series | TVxxx | TV for television | 001 to 264+ |
| Halloween Special issue | HW0xx | HW for Halloween | 01 to 16 |
| Special Ver. issue | SP0x | SP for special | 01 to 02 |
| Event Limited issue | EL0x | EL for event limited | 01 to 02 |
| Character & Pictograph Top Tank Ver. issue | TT0x | TT for top tank | 01 to 08 |
| WCF Character Development Poll issue | MM0x | MM for monomōsu (poll in Japanese) | 01 to 08 |
| Film Z series | FZ0xx | FZ for film Z |

Actually, WCF first came as DWC (short for Dragon Ball World Collectable), released between January and September 2009, exclusively focused on Dragon Ball (5 parts) then Dragon Ball Z (6 parts). Thus Dragon Ball Kai WCF (4 parts) came simultaneously along the first One Piece Strong World WCF. Because of WCF big success with the 2 above mentioned intellectual properties, Banpresto started in 2012 to expand WCF to other big IPs at the time (namely Kamen Rider, Naruto, Tiger & Bunny and Gundam), and will probably go on growing stronger.
Note: Although collectible is the most widespread used word in U.S. English, collectable remains the primarily word in British English to design objects considered to be worth collecting.
