Item Description
The childhood friend we all grew up with, Red (or Ash Ketchum) along with his best friend Pikachu fromPokemon, are now officially an addition to Kotobukiya's ARTFX J line of figures! Red & Pikachu is scheduled for release in November 2016!
The pair are perhaps one of the most well known characters in gaming history, and it is easy to understand why so many toy manufacturers worldwide dedicate a big variety of merchandises surrounding Red & Pikachu as well as other characters/Pokemon too. And now even Kotobukiya's ARTFX J line, which dedicates their work to making statues of famous Japanese works for fans all over the world, decides to go back in time to make a 1/8th scale figure of the fan favorite inseperatable pair! Red stands at approximately 18.5cm and Pikachu at 7cm.
One can never forget how Red and Pikachu didn't get along at first with Pikachu refusing to get inside the Pokeball even after numerous attempts. Throughout their journey they eventually learned to trust each other and become the best of friends traveling far and wide together. This figure perfectly captures the level of trust they were able to gain as Red sends Pikachu into battle against their opponent. Pikachu, who would fight tirelessly for Red at this point, is completely hyped up and ready to use his skills which you can see from the electricity sparks emitted from his cheeks!
From the detailed use of vivid colors and careful work of sculpting, we just simply cannot find any flaws to this figure of Red with Pikachu. Put this into your collection and you'll have a nostalgic trip down memory lane whenever you see them!

Looks good!
I haven't unboxed mine yet (I don't like to crowd my display pieces together) but it looks fantastic already. It's a quality sculpt with a lot of delicate-looking extremities, so it would be a good idea to keep it in a plexi-box and away from traffic. The paintwork looks great, too. It's a really excellent rendering of Trainer Red!

Great quality!
This is very high quality statue, looks awesome!
My only problem is that Pikachu doesn't have a spot where it can sit in place, but that is my only concern.
