Pre-orders for Kitsune Statue’s Seto Kaiba with Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon statue are now live. Buyers will want to act quickly because there are only 300 statues up for grabs. Its price is €699 (about $775), which includes a VAT of 20 percent.

Kitsune’s creation depicts a 1/7 scale Seto Kaiba standing proudly atop his duel tower in the Battle City semifinals, ready to take down Yugi with his Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon. Details from the anime, like the KaibaCorp logo, holographic pillars, and even Kaiba’s BEUD card, are on full display.

This statue is crafted from resin, polyurethane, and PVC. Its dimensions are H47.2 x W54 x D46 centimeters (about H18.5 x W21 x D18 inches) and its weight is approximately 10 kilograms (22 pounds). The estimated delivery date is the first half of 2021.

Sales are limited to customers in France and Monaco only.

On Twitter, the sculptor, Sacha Delon, shared a closer look of the 3-D computer models of the statue. Fans and buyers will definitely want to check out those images because they show some finer design details that aren’t visible in Kitsune’s photos of the product.

This statue’s project directors are Yann Rademske and Baptiste Periou. Artistic direction was handled by Periou and Delon. The 2-D concept artist is Guilherme Daigo from Brazil, and the painter is Thai artist Titinun Naksud.
