The Unveiling of the Life-Size Golden Kenshiro Statue

In an exciting event for anime and collectible enthusiasts, a stunning life-size golden statue of Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star will make its debut in Japan. Scheduled for display at Matsuzakaya Nagoya from June 3 to 8, 2026, this masterpiece is not just an art piece but a significant cultural representation.

A Grand Exhibition: The Great Golden Exhibition

Hosted by SGC, a leading company in gold manufacturing and sales based in Tokyo, this event will showcase an impressive array of over 1,000 gold products, including the striking Kenshiro statue. Standing at approximately 1.93 meters tall, this statue is crafted using around 1,500 sheets of gold leaf, reflecting the striking essence of the iconic character. With a reference price of ¥44,000,000 (tax included), it beautifully captures the spirit and martial prowess of Kenshiro, the resilient warrior from the beloved manga that debuted in 1983, having sold over 100 million copies worldwide.

The chairman of SGC, Toyo Tsuchiya, expressed enthusiasm about the significance of this exhibition, stating, “The unveiling of the Kenshiro statue is a reflection of our commitment to not only highlight artistic craftsmanship but also to celebrate cultural milestones.” This event marks a continuation of SGC's previous success with the golden statue of Raoh, another character from the franchise, which had captivated audiences during its national exhibition.

Exclusive Gold Collectibles

In addition to the Kenshiro statue, visitors can look forward to a special sale of gold collectibles, including an 11 cm pure gold figure priced at ¥5,368,000. This collectible embodies Kenshiro’s enduring popularity, especially with the new anime series that started airing in April this year.
