Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
I feel like going to visit Kyoto again… I need to go at least once more before the end of the year! Today I’m going to be taking a look at the…
1/8th Scale Hizamaru!
“I am Hizamaru, a treasure of the Minamoto family. Have you seen my brother around?”
The sword known as a priceless treasure to the Minamoto family, Hizamaru, has been transformed into a scale figure! His asymmetrical light green hair, stylish outfit and elegant appearance has all been captured so perfectly!!
The back of the figure also looks amazing!
The tight fitting outfit shows off his fit and slim body!
You’ll notice there are also a couple of creases at the bottom of his shirt for a little bot of realism, but if you look a little higher up you’ll notice there are little to no creases up higher as he holds out his chest in confidence! It also brings out his fit physique! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)
The sword he holds in his left hand is attached to his side with metal fixtures that are so very intricate!
Areas like this you don’t normally notice when looking at him from the front, but even so the details of the metal parts and the ties have been so beautifully sculpted! Be sure to take a look all over the figure once he joins your collection! (∩・∀・)∩
The accessories of his outfit on his chest and around his shoulders have also been included in lovely detail! ★
▲ The different layers of his outfit, the gradient on the tassel… so much to see!
The ties of his armor on the back of his legs and even the fasteners of his boots all look amazing!
▲ The little bows and the creases in his pants! So intricate! (´□｀｡)
His hairstyle is rather unique in the way it flows out to the sides, but the sculpt has carefully taken this into account to ensure that no matter what angle you look from the flow of his hair still looks nice and natural! ♪
Speaking of his hair, the original illustration had the front section of his hair is see-through, and this has been captured on the figure with the use of translucent parts…
However, in order to keep the figure from looking too strange the transparency has been kept to a lower degree than on the illustration, so you can’t quite make out his entire right eye through the hair. (/ω＼)
That said, if you change the angle you will see that the eye has still been faithfully included on the design! If you want to see both his eyes simply find an angle that allows it!
▲ I personally quite like looking up at him from a lower angle like this!
Also note the way that each and every one of his fingers has been sculpted with a different nuance that make them look so strong and manly! The fingers on the Touken Ranbu figures always look so amazing to me!
He really is one of those figures that really changes depending on the angle you choose to look from, so I hope that everyone will enjoy looking for the angle they like best once he arrives in their collection! Not to mention that you can slide your finger along all these beautiful details for yourself!!
Be sure to add the prized sword to your collection!
