Sculptor: Katsuhisa Yamaguchi From Koei Tecmo Games' high-speed ninja action "NINJA GAIDEN" series, The Modern Day Ninja Ryu Hayabusa of the Dragon Clan lineage joins the Amazing Yamaguchi lineup! Since his first appearance in the arcade/NES 2D action game "Ninja Gaiden" in 1988, Ryu has appeared in such popular titles as "DEAD OR ALIVE" and the "Warriors OROCHI" series. He's the ninja hero that Koei Tecmo Games is proud to offer to the world! This time, he's been brought to life in the costume from "NINJA GAIDEN 2" in which he appears as the protagonist. His proportions with large bulging muscles wrapped in a stylish ninja suit -plus his high-tech equipment- have been precisely recreated. He comes with plentiful weapons from the game including the fully sheathable sacred Dragon Sword slung across his back, Shuriken, Kusari-Gama, and Falcon's Talons. Sculptor Katsuhisa Yamaguchi took great pains to create Ryu's wide range of motion- his shoulders can move back and forth with the split parts on the sides of his chest, and his lower legs naturally bend with joints. In addition, various hand parts for holding each weapon and making hand seals are included, allowing him to deftly wield his variety of weapons for tons of ninja action! -His sharp gaze peeking out from his mask can be adjusted, plus, his scarf blowing in the wind is posable with a joint. Make his action poses even cooler! -He can equip Falcon's Talons to slice through enemies with their sharp blades by changing out the arm/leg parts. With them on, his silhouette and fighting style change dramatically for even more ninja action!
