The Kidou Keisatsu Patlabor AV-98 Ingram 1 figure is a faithful, carry-forward interpretation of the iconic police combat mech from the Movie Edition. In 1/24 scale, its silhouette emphasizes a sturdy, multi-layered armor shell, with crisp panel lines, carefully recessed vents, and a balanced proportion between torso, limbs, and the distinctive head unit. The color treatment blends a subdued blue-gray base with subtle weathered finishes and selective metallic highlights to bring out rivets and seam work. The joints are designed to read as a practical suit of armor, while preserving a heroic, streamlined look suitable for display. The figure highlights articulated neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles for dynamic posing; a faithful depiction of the cockpit area, sensors, and gun mount, and a clean, high-quality paint scheme that captures the filmic mood of Patlabor.

In the Patlabor universe, the AV-98 Ingram 1 is one of the hero units assigned to the Special Vehicle Division to protect civilians from rogue automation, disasters, and organized crime in a near-future Tokyo. As the Movie Edition marks a milestone in the series, Ingram 1 is portrayed not only as a powerful piece of machinery but as a trusted partner to its pilot—the operator who must forge calm under pressure while making split-second decisions. Throughout pilots’ missions, Ingram 1 negotiates tense stand-offs with malfunctioning labor units and threatening rogue tech, balancing force with restraint. Its storyline highlights themes of responsibility, teamwork, and the moral complexities of a city reliant on autonomous systems, while the figure itself serves as a tangible reminder of those dramatic moments of pursuit, rescue, and quiet heroism on patrol.
