Fist of the North Star Full Scale Figure Bedazzled With $130k of Crystals

“You are already fabulous!”

Comic Zenon is Japan has commissioned a true to life scale figure of Hokuto no Ken’s (AKA Fist of the North Star) brooding, super macho, understated wasteland hero Kenshiro. Created by figure maker Kaiyodo and standing just over six feet tall, the giant collectable was unveiled at Tokyo's Ginza Hakuhikan store and will be auctioned off for charity. Awesome, right?

Then they went too far.

Proving that awesome sauce on awesomeness is not always tasty, the statue was inlaid with 500,000 Swarovski crystals worth approximately $130,000. The end results turns one of anime’s oldest and toughest manly men into an Elvis impersonator fresh off the Vegas strip.
