Who does not know the legendary series of Holly e Benji ? It can be liked or not, but he certainly left an indelible mark in the imagination Youth ours, with its characters with Japanese names and antics of the Western type shots that split the walls, acrobatics that defy the laws of physics, fields of unusual length and Japan to win the World Cup. The series is famous throughout the world and think it is strange that until now had not yet been devoted to the figurines now covered by a lack Aoshima \\ Skynet (which should be the same that produced the ships of Captain Harlock ), which debuted in the world with this his statuette PVC Tsubasa Oozora .
known in Italy as Oliver (Holly) Atton, Tsubasa is a brilliant player football star of the series, thanks to his talent that leads to success in which each team plays. The figures is not inspired in the first round, when Tsubasa is still a child, but the second, when it's a bit 'bigger matches and often dramatic connotations. Of this statue there are two versions, the normal one here reviewed and the variant "Fierce Fighting", in which Tsubasa wearing uniforms dirty and torn, the result of his battles on the pitch. In truth I was more oriented to initially buy it, but I was dissuaded by other people that I have recommended.
Tsubasa is a football player, then the model dedicated to him it is appropriately in dynamic pose, as he prepares to kick the ball on the run. The character wears the uniform of his school team, the Nankatsu (New Team) , as seen in the manga (the anime instead of written in Japanese characters while there was only a large N the lines are red). The character design reproduces that of Yoichi Takahashi's manga, which objectively is not a great artist, but then the features are those of Tsubasa, so there's not much to do and the only fact that I can do is related to the reproduction of the hair, I do not seem loyal to the original, at least in the front.
The base is large and solid, the model adheres only with his left foot, but the hook is metal, so it guarantees a certain reliability on the premises, as the statue is quite heavy. The ball in front of Tsubasa is slightly off the ground, held in place by a bar of transparent plastic that does not disturb the whole. Good idea of \u200b\u200bthe base that represents a portion of the playing field, even if objectively the performance of the grass is bad: it looks like green mud, rather than a lawn!
Among the other version in my possession I have, unfortunately, a defect in his right hand which shows little attention to post-production.
The overall quality of the statue is decent, although we can say that it excels in anything but a rookie producer this is a decent start. We say that the assessment also varies according to the cost: in the Italian shops asking between 60 and 70 Euros, a price which I believe is frankly overkill. Purchasing it in the East, I paid 35 euro, which is a price for the product. The overall performance is good, the statue makes its shape when exposed, although having the installation makes it more when exposed alone rather than alongside other PVC. This, at least until the Skynet will release other characters from the series: when all is quiet, and given the still wide availability of small statues of Tsubasa online I suspect that sales may not have been high. Let's hope so, because at least Mark and Benji deserve their reproduction ...
