ACI Toys X Suwahara Hiroyuki: Oda Nobunaga

With great honor, ACI Toys International has been authorized by Mr. Suwahara Hiroyuki, legendary Japanese illustrator of renown KOEI's games Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors, to produce a series of 1/6 scale collectible action figures from the Sengoku Period. Kicking off the series, we are pleased to bring you the mighty conqueror, warlord and general ~ Oda Nobunaga.

To bring Mr. Hiroyuki's illustration to life while staying truthful to history as much as possible, the ACI Team has invested a great deal in the research and development of the series, from armor design to weaponry, from head-sculpt to tailoring, no details has been left unchecked, for instance, Oda's sword is actually based on the "Heshikirihasebe", which is currently on display at the ***uoka City Museum in Japan.

For hardcore Samurai fans and gamers, the DELUXE version comes with 3 special bonus parts that symbolized Oda's heroic legacy :
1) Matchlock gun -- as the leader of tanegashima infantry team
2) Haori (Samurai surcoat) -- the noble image as a daimyō who ruled most of the Japan from their vast, hereditary land holdings
3) "Tenka Fubu" Battle flag with stand -- meaning ""to rule all under heaven by force of arms/military might", the iconic war banner of Oda Nobunaga.

It is more difficult to talk about things and events (instead of persons), because this requires a certain amount of intelligence, reflection and information. If we are to talk of things, we must know something about them. (c)
