April 2003 - From Fist of the North Star, one of the most action-packed manga and anime series ever, come these awesome new figures, available exclusively in North America from Diamond Comic Distributors!

Considered to be one of the greatest anime of all time, Fist of the North Star set a precedent for the action and martial arts anime to follow. It tells the story of a ruined Earth, filled with deadly toxins, radiated mutants, and death around every corner. Hope comes from the North Star, and the practitioner of Hokuto Shinken, Kenshiro. Martial arts madness ensues as Kenshiro must fight battle after battle to bring light to a world faded into darkness. Now, fans of the series can collect two of their favorite characters from the series, with the Fist of the North Star 200X Deluxe Kenshiro Figure and Fist of the North Star 200X Deluxe Roah Figure.

Imported from Japan, the Kenshiro figure depicts the chosen one, whose strength will stop the violence among men, and the Raoh figure portrays the ruthless conqueror who is sworn to kill Kenshiro! Sculpted for Kaiyodo by Tomohide Enoki, these figures stand 8" tall, feature multiple points of articulation and variant hands, for endless posing possibilities! Raoh also includes a weapon, cloak, and helmet. Scheduled to ship in July 2003, these are two figures that no fan of Fist of the North Star will want to be without.
