DMC (Design Modelers Club) is a legendary doujin (self-published) circle known for producing some of the most anatomically precise and emotionally resonant resin kits of the 2000s. The "25" signifies it was their 25th major release, a mid-life masterpiece that refined their earlier roughness into polished perfection.
