Welcome to my first review of 2011 . On this occasion I present my latest purchase came just a few days ago, after an endless journey from Japan, complicated by the Christmas holidays, as we know, in a stretch excessive lead times.
The subject of this article is Hanamichi Sakuragi, protagonist of the famous manga by Takehiko Hinoue, Slam Dunk .
Hanamichi as easy to understand, is a basketball player in high school Shohoku: member of the team only to be beautiful in the eyes of his, actually Men know little or nothing about the sport in question. Over time, however, developed a passion for basketball and thanks to a mix of natural talent and perseverance in training, it becomes very soon be a mainstay of the team, along with his friend and rival Kaede Rukawa. That statue is reproduced from the Hanamichi the second part of the manga, his hair shaved to punish himself after a glaring error that cost his team's defeat.
The producer is the newcomer almost TK Holdings, which was reported before Hanamichi to create another Inoue character of the samurai Miyamoto Musashi by Vagabond .
The pose chosen is very static, taken from an illustration by Inoue: Hanamichi is still, legs apart and with his usual expression blowhard, while the right hand ; firmly grasps a basketball. In so simple a figure therefore assumes even greater importance is the modeling and from this point of view the work of TK Holdings is really excellent.
From the photos it is possible to deduce the beauty with which it was made divided by basketball, who wears the star in an absolutely natural and realistic. An excellent Work was also done in the yield of the muscles, thanks to the skillful combination of sculpture and painting: legs, arms, shoulders and neck make it perfectly the look of an athlete's body turned, as Sakuragi.
complete the picture perfect reproduction of the currency of Shohoku and basketball, is also the choice fits perfectly to use as a basic insight into the parquet, the classic finish of a basketball court indoors.
Overall I therefore confirm that this is an excellent model from all points of view, and that the static pose is covered by an excellent model, which makes the statue identical in appearance to the hero of the manga that inspired.
The statue is made from a single block, there are no parts to be assembled from the base, although I found that if you want you can disconnect head, although I do not know which pro (with optional head will release the hair so first?). In any case, this makes the pvc stable and solid.
Given the price after all available (about sixty Euros) I can recommend without reservation to anyone who has appreciated the statue Slam Dunk and her irresistible protagonist.
