This regulation is a SUPER MASTER STARS PIECE(SMSP) brand, but I think this is also Mr.Yamashita Manabu's transcendent detail series. So, I tried not to drag his high-end series down.

I started making figures at the age of 18, but I made sculpting of model kits at KOTOBUKIYA and KAIYODO until I was 25 years old. At that time, PVC figure did not exist yet, so I think it was almost an amateur activity. After that, I worked for a video production company, but I left the company in 1998 and made sculpting company personally. So, if I am asked about my professional career, I answer "since 1998." When the PVC product figure began to popular in the world, a colleague who had left the company had already started sculpt and I jumped at his story of making good profit. I think that is the beginning.

Already 30 years have passed. Currently, I earn with "Dragon Ball" sculpting, but as a fan of Mr. Toriyama, I have never been happier.

I feel like Bardock is a character with a strong Toei taste. The image of the "DEVILMAN" I saw as a child and the lonely heroes as seen in "CYBORG 009" are strongly overlapped. The chorus BGM that flows in the scene where Bardock is blasted by Frieza in the story is like the dramatic chorus BGM used in Toei animation of the old years, and I remember being impressed. In the image of a dying warrior, I tried to make a pose that stoop to the ground. It can be line up in front and behind with the first SMSP Goku.

Painful expression and battle damage.

I am looking forward to seeing how the first-time participants express in sculpting.

I didn't expect this tournament will last for 10 years. I participated in all tournaments and continued to receive words of encouragement from many people. I think that my motivation will drop with age, but I will keep making an effort. Thank you very much for your continuous support.
