- Papercraft: paper models of characters, ships, planes, mecha, buildings

- Garage kits: handmade resin figurines representing characters
- Plamo: plastic figure modeling kits of mecha (Gundam, Macross)
- Scratches, aka personal creations, and original makings on various supports inspired from Japanimation.
Special exhibitions
Each year, Anigetter puts an anime, a manga, a video game, or an animated movie into the spotlight with an exhibition made of models, papercrafts, figurines and original creations, but also tie-in products. This years, its members present you two anniversary exhibitions:
- Patlabor 30th anniversary: cause there's more than Gundam when it comes to mecha. There are also labors, those giant robots used for any kind of tasks.
- Cowboy Bepop 20th anniversary: a Space Opera with starships, iconic characters and a jazzy original soundtrack!
This is the occasion to get a little nostalgic and (re)discover these two mythical universes!
