Keniuchio
Harada is the unacknowledged son of Japanese crimelord Shingen Harada, former
leader of Clan Yashida. Keniuchio is a mutant with the ability to generate a
tachyon field around the sword he wields so that it can slice through any
object, except adamantium. He began training at an early age in bushido, the
fighting methods and code of honor of the samurai. After honoring debts of
service to Mandrill and Viper, the Silver Samurai was field commander for Big
Hero 6, the Japanese superhero team. When Sunfire, his cousin and Big Hero 6
teammate, became the leader of Clan Yashida, the Silver Samurai rebelled and
swore allegiance to Magneto, in hopes of one day claiming Clan Yashida as his
own.

A
master of hand-to-hand and armed combat, this green-haired legend has fronted
various terrorist organizations, including the New York cell of Hydra and the
Serpent Squad. She possesses a teleportation ring of alien origin allowing
her to escape from unfavorable situations. She started her criminal career as
Madame Hydra, but took on the name Viper after killing its original owner in a
power struggle over the Serpent Squad. In addition to her close alliance with
the Silver Samurai, Viper has also worked with the Red Skull. More recently,
she manipulated Wolverine into marriage, enabling her to become leader of the
island of Madripoor.

Leyu
Yoshida is the half-sister of Shiro Yoshida, Japan's Sunfire. Her mutant
abilities, similar to Sunfire's, allow her to fly and generate plasma heat
blasts. When Magneto was holding Professor Xavier hostage in Genosha, Jean
Grey sent a telepathic cry to Sunfire for his help. However, Leyu showed up
in his place, wearing a similar costume. After helping the X-Men battle
Magneto, Sunpyre followed her brother's example and refused the X-Men's offer
to join the team.

A
villain who knows his jewelry, Mandarin's powers come from the ten rings he
wears, one on each finger. From a flame blast to matter rearrangement, his
rings can keep virtually any hero at bay. Since everyone needs goals, he's
out to return China to its dynastic glory - with himself in the top seat, of
course. He's come close to doing just that, occasionally with the aid of the
giant dragon, Fing Fang Foom, only to be stopped by Iron Man.
 
Mandarin: 14 points of articulation
Accessories: five golden rings (x 2)
Base: crashed alien spaceship hull that looks kinda like a dojo

*Ok, Wolverine only
loosely qualifies as an Asian Legend, but no toy line is complete
without him! |
