One of the most popular horror-themed anime on either side of the globe is ready to make a second appearance on collector's shelves as the Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust Resin Statue, and it's available from Diamond.

Vampire Hunter D is one of the best-known anime available, and videos, DVDs, apparel, and more based on the property have all proven themselves as valuable commodities in today's specialty market. Retailers should enjoy sales success with this statue by offering it to fans of the show, as well as to anyone who appreciates unique collectibles.

Based on the 2001 theatrical Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust feature film, this beautifully crafted, 12" resin work of art from sculptor Keiji Ando presents the half-man/half-vampire hunter of the undead with his fearsome sword, and is showcased on an intricately detailed base. No true fan of anime or horror will be able to do without this incredible statue, which comes fully painted, ready to display, and is scheduled to ship in December 2001.
