Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
Hell might exist, so I am going to take care what I do in this lifetime! Whenever I hear the opening for Hozuki no Reitetsu I always feel strangely cheerful!
Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
| From the popular manga and anime series, ‘Hozuki no Reitetsu’ comes a Nendoroid of the sadistic oni that serves as first aide to the King of Hell, Hozuki! He comes with both a standard calm expression, as well a contrasting aggressive expression filled with rage. His beloved metal club is included for him to wield.
Other optional parts include the goldfish plant he keeps as a pet, as well as Shiro – the dog that serves as a kind of mascot for hell’s guards! Shiro’s front legs are articulated allowing for some alternating poses for him as well! While the composed and serious look has been kept faithfully, the cute Nendoroid charm has also been added for a Hozuki-sama that fans will be happy to add to their collection! |
Ooooooooooohhhhh!! (*´Д｀)=з
Those glaring eyes, the horn on his forehead and the black outfit with red edges!! Not to mention the shining metal bad that suits him so well! Hozuki is joining the Nendoroids!!
Hozuki-sama’s solemn, fearless expression has been transformed into Nendoroid form perfectly!
The red around his eyes contrasts well with the white skin and black hair so well! By the way, the horn part is connected to Hozuki’s hair part, which means you can still easily swap expressions with other characters!
This is how he looks from the back!
The marking on the back of his outfit has been faithfully included! The neat tie of the belt that shows his tasteful side has also been faithfully preserved! ♪
Also, while his hair is black the alternating light and a dark colors create a lovely almost shining effect to the simple color. His entire appearance has such a strong impression behind it really capturing his character effectively!
(・∀・) “It wouldn’t be Hozuki-sama without this expression!”
We’re joined today by Hozuki-sama’s planner, Hamako!
An expression for Hozuki-sama other than his calm and clear face… it can only be…!! (； ・`д・´)
(・∀・) “His angry expression!!”
Hyahoooooooooooooo!!! (●´ω｀●)
The sharp teeth you can see inside the open mouth are amazing! This kind of expression isn’t seen much on Nendoroids… but I must say it has an interesting mix of scariness and cuteness! ♪
The little purple tassel on his club has a little ring it connects with, meaning that if you pose Hozuki like this with the club over his shoulder, the tassel actually matches the pose naturally! ﾍ(ﾟ∀ﾟ*)ﾉ
(・∀・) “If you pose him looking upwards and look at him from a higher angle…”
I remember this!! <○><○>!!!
(・∀・) “The scene where Hozuki imposes sanctions on the King of Hell!!”
You get the change to experience being the object of Hozuki’s rage!!
(・∀・) “We also decided to include a number of friends from the series – the first of which is the goldfish plant!”
The pet that Hozuki rears for enjoyment!
The goldfish plant obviously comes with the pot as well, and even hands for Hozuki to hold it! ♡
(・∀・) “We wanted to include the shaking effect of the goldfish plant, so the stem section is made from a movable material! This is still in development though!”
have a slightly different gimmick in place for the movement!
But there is still one more friend to be introduced!
He featured in previous photos already but I haven’t paid him any attention!
“Hey, Hey! Hozuki-sama!”
The cute little doggy who found work in Hell though Hozuki!
The lovable idiot , Shiro-san!
(・∀・) “His head can be moved left and right, and his front paws are articulated allowing for slightly different poses!”
Plus if you use the arms to hold the flower pot along with some careful balance…
I managed to pose Shiro-san being held by Hozuki-sama!!
Be sure to pose him having a great time together with Hozuki-sama! Somehow Hozuki’s expression looks a little bit more gentle with Shiro in his arms!!
(・∀・) “Hozuki only comes with two expressions, but the combination of different angles and optional parts really allows for all sorts of options! I hope fans of the series will be happy with him!”
Would you like the first aide to the King of Hell by your side?
He is up for preorder today!
Plus, orders from the GOOD SMILE ONLINE SHOP will include this extra little bonus…
A hand part holding a pipe!
While Hozuki-san at work is wonderful, it’s also nice to have the option to display him in relax mode sometimes! This was actually a request from me to Hamako!! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ
The combination of the Japanese smoking pipe and Japanese style clothes is wonderful!
△ The pipe from the manga covers and title cut of the anime!
You’ll have to imagine the smoke for yourself though!
Orders at the GOOD SMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the 15th April 2015 at 21:00JST! (｀・ω・´)ゞ
