One of my more pricey purchases and considerably huge size. When I preordered this toy ( to be precise, poly resin statue ), I didn't realized its that massive though it says 1/4.5 scale by A-Plus with this reproduction of a strong bodily-heavy armor that looks lot more of the figure in person than in the game. Didn't look so big on pics as I do have 1/6 scale Bishoujo so I thought it should be just slightly taller. Forget to factor in that Dragon Crown Fighter is a man of height (36cm) and muscles for ultimate brutality in the game. My bad! A retro feel of 2D Action RPG game 'Dragon Crown' by ATLUS, similar to good old classic 'Golden Axe'.
The nature of the material Polyresin sure contributed to the heavy weight of the statue which come close to 4kg. It's pre-painted, well detailed and ready for display with simple attachment of the parts. Amazingly sculpted by Ryuusuke which the paint hold up, especially the chrome on the armour. Comes with an alternate head whereby you can choose the character wearing the helmet or the handsome face without the helmet. Dragon's crown is a bonus to the figure. Picture reference shown the crown looped around the sword handle. Alternatively, you can put the crown on the head without the helmet. A fearsome look of the fighter in a heavily armoured upper torso however the legs seems a bit thin and at some angle he might be mistaken as a Minotaur ^_^ The 'Fighter' archetype from the Dragon's Crown video game comes to life.

i was looking to the video included in your review and i think that the game (Dragon’s Crown) is pretty awesome !!!... i mean, it’s seriously my kind of game !!!...
also i think that with this polymeric resin statue, you have reached a brand new level in your hobby !!!... quite impressive in terms of size, with a delicate sculpt and excellent paint job... the shades seem exaggerated, but actually accurate regarding the game character and that androgynous face makes a good contrast with the fierce and humongous armor !!!... salute to Lord Destroys’ol !!!... =OOOOO
The shoulder pads are very big!!

Glad you find the game appealing. It's quite contradicting that the face behind the heavily plated helmet is a fair fan boy face rather than a gung-ho face of carnage like 'Kane'. Lol ... That's with the armor is design by westerner and the face sculpted by Japanese. Never mind what I'm talking, they are all made up be me. Ha! Ha! This figure or should I say statue is more like an exception to my collection. Guess to collect whatever looks good to me! It's an awesome artifact ^_^
