Banpresto Figure Colosseum (BFC) is a sculpting hall of fame line of figures that are made by various artists in Japan. It is a sculpting figure competition that started in 2010, resulting in a battle royal of the strongest sculptors, and the winners get their figure produced. In 2017 it had matured in Japan and moved worldwide, changing the name to Banpresto World Figure Colosseum (BWFC) with sculptors from all over the world.
