1/6 Movie Masterpiece Series: Goemon Ishikawa by Hot Toys
New images have been released for Hot Toys' new line of movie-1/6th figures for the Japanese martial-arts fantasy-movie GOEMON [tagged / WHAT] - starting with the lead character Goemon Ishikawa the bandit! Featuring a headsculpt by Korean-legend KOJUN [WHO / aka sculptor of John Connor] and a 12 inch tall figure dressed in nigh-sweet and detailed looking tunic (the top-tunic looks embroidered tho!). Would this figure take HT to the next level of the 1/6th-scale hobby? Some say they already have, and I am not going to dispute any claims as such, becoz I is liking what ima seeing online - even if they be prototypes!
