Space Pirate Captain Harlock - Captain Harlock [With Throne of Arcadia]

[Product Introduction] Hot Toys' "Movie Masterpiece" series welcomes Captain Harlock, the epic film that revived the masterpiece by manga artist Leiji Matsumoto as a 3DCG animation 30 years later. The legendary space pirate Captain Harlock appears, complete with the "Skull Chair" installed on the pirate ship Arcadia! For 100 years, Captain Harlock has rebelled against the government. Once a hero who served as a soldier in the "Gaia Sanction," an organization that governed 500 billion people scattered throughout the universe, protecting the inviolable territory of Earth, he rebelled after the end of a certain war. Since then, as the widely wanted criminal S-00999, he has become an enemy of the entire universe, piloting the space pirate ship Arcadia, which has a giant skull carved on its bow, and repeatedly attacking the Allied Fleet. What is his true purpose? In this age of decline, a battle for the future of humanity is about to begin. Standing approximately 32 centimeters tall and featuring over 30 points of articulation, this figure perfectly recreates the appearance of the space pirate Captain Harlock. The head sculpt, with its striking, deep gaze that harbors inner turmoil, is so well-made that it looks as if it stepped right out of the movie, and has received the seal of approval from director Shinji Aramaki. Every detail, from his trademark eyepatch to his scars, has been meticulously hand-painted to recreate the character. The body uses a newly developed physique specifically for Harlock. The costume, faithfully reproduced from the original manga, is exquisitely crafted with attention to detail and materials, from the collared cape and suit adorned with skull motifs to the knee-high boots, resulting in a truly refined finish. Weapons include his familiar warrior's gun, the gravity saber. Multiple interchangeable hand parts are included, allowing you to recreate various action scenes from the film. A special display stand is also included, allowing you to recreate the scene of "Tori-san," an indispensable character from Leiji Matsumoto's works, perched on Harlock's shoulder, just like in the movie. Furthermore, this item is a special edition that includes a chair specifically for Harlock, located in the bridge of the pirate ship Arcadia. The chair's magnificent design, including intricate skull motifs, is beautifully reproduced, and of course, you can place Harlock in it! Captain Harlock, a key figure in Leiji Matsumoto's world, still leaves a powerful impression. Without compromising the original's appearance, this item, which beautifully revives the "legendary space pirate" in the modern era after 30 years, and includes a skull chair, is the ultimate item that neither new nor old fans should miss! 【Product Specifications】 Manufacturer: Hot Toys Series Number: MM#223 Scale: 1/6 Scale Size: Approximately 32 cm tall Articulation Points: 30 Packaging: Flip-top closed box Production Information: Limited production Distribution Method: General sale Product Type: High-end 1/6 scale articulated figure Accessories (Weapons): Warrior's gun, Gravity saber Accessories (Accessories): Arcadia's skull chair, Bird, Bird display stand, interchangeable hand parts (x4) Barcode Number: 4897011175614 Production Staff: Sculptor: K.A.
