[Product Introduction]
Hot Toys' "Comic Masterpiece" series now includes "City Hunter," an enduring masterpiece that has had a tremendous influence on the Japanese manga world. As the second release, Hot Toys has meticulously recreated Saeko Nogami, the beautiful female detective whose father is the Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police Department. "City Hunter," by Tsukasa Hojo, is a hard-boiled comedy manga that was serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" from 1985 to 1991. It has been adapted into a TV anime and movies, and a live-action drama is currently being produced in South Korea, making it a highly popular work both domestically and internationally. Saeko Nogami is a highly skilled female detective in the Special Investigations Division of the Metropolitan Police Department and the arch-nemesis of City Hunter Ryo Saeba. She manipulates Ryo with her charms and pushes dangerous cases that the police cannot investigate onto him. Saeko, known as the "Panther of the Metropolitan Police Department" for her dazzling knife skills and seductive charm, is a highly detailed and 3D rendition of Nogami Saeko, a representative of the beautiful women depicted by Tsukasa Hojo. Standing approximately 28 centimeters tall and featuring over 28 points of articulation, this figure faithfully recreates Saeko's supple physique and sexy charm. The jacket, which accentuates her body lines, and the skirt with a slit are crafted with meticulous attention to detail and materials, resulting in a faithful overall silhouette. Each head part is hand-painted to recreate Saeko's captivating expression, which combines beauty and strength. In addition to her favorite knife, which can be stored in a holder attached to her garter belt, the figure also comes with weapons such as a Walther PPK/S and an S&W M60 Chief Special. The greatest appeal of this item is the inclusion of the 100-ton hammer (police version), an anti-bulge weapon that is indispensable when talking about City Hunter. When displayed together with the simultaneously announced Ryo Saeba figure, you can recreate the scene where she and [character name] engage in a power struggle over the loan of their "Mokkori" (a type of sexual act) as payment for a job. Hot Toys presents the beautiful Saeko Nogami, a figure born from their respect for "City Hunter." Keep an eye out for future releases from the classic "City Hunter" lineup. *This item will only be released in Japan and Hong Kong. Available for sale in Japan and Hong Kong only.
