Genshin Impact and Myethos have unveiled a new highlight for collectors with the display of the “Skirk: Carnival Gathering Ver.” 1/8 scale figure prototype at WF2026 Winter. As part of the premium Gift+ series, this early showcase offers fans a first glimpse at the sculpt and artistic direction behind one of the most anticipated upcoming figures tied to the Genshin Impact universe.
The prototype on display is presented in gray, a standard stage for figure reveals that emphasizes sculpt quality, proportions, and fine detailing before final coloring is applied. Even at this stage, Skirk’s design stands out through dynamic posing, flowing costume elements, and a strong sense of movement that reflects the Carnival Gathering theme. The figure balances elegance and intensity, capturing Skirk’s mysterious presence in a form that feels both theatrical and refined.
As part of the Genshin Impact x Myethos collaboration, the Gift+ series continues to focus on high quality craftsmanship while maintaining an accessible 1/8 scale format. This approach allows for expressive detail without overwhelming display space, making it especially appealing to long term collectors. Skirk’s inclusion also signals Myethos’s growing focus on characters with deeper narrative weight and strong visual identity.
The WF2026 Winter exhibition has long been a key venue for major figure announcements, and Skirk’s appearance there has generated strong interest among attendees and online viewers alike. Fans have been closely examining photos and impressions from the event, discussing costume motifs, pose interpretation, and how the final painted version may look once color and effects are applied.
This reveal follows closely behind other Carnival Gathering showcases, reinforcing the idea that the series is being developed with a cohesive artistic vision. While no release date or pre order window has been announced yet for the Skirk figure, the presence of the prototype suggests that development is progressing steadily.
For fans of Skirk and collectors of Genshin Impact merchandise, this prototype reveal marks an important milestone. It not only confirms the figure’s direction but also builds anticipation for future updates, including the fully colored version and eventual pre order details.
As HoYoverse continues to expand its physical merchandise lineup through collaborations like Myethos, showcases such as this highlight how Genshin Impact characters are successfully transitioning from digital storytelling into high end collectible art.
