Yamato Launches Fantasy Figure Gallery at Comic-Con

EXPLORE YOUR FANTASIES
Yamato USA's Fantasy Figure Gallery Debuts at San Diego Comic Con

TORRANCE, CA, July 15, 2008. Yamato USA invites you to explore your fantasies as we debut our Fantasy Figure Gallery at the San Diego Comic Con. Our Fantasy Figure Gallery is a unique union of East and West as the leading portrait sculptors of Asia render the worlds of legendary fantasy artists from Europe and the Americas as only they are capable. But what really excites us about this collection, what makes it so truly groundbreaking, is that we are able to make these gallery quality pieces affordable for all. But don't take our word for it, come by our display at booth 4429 (under the shadows of the Warner Bros. booth), and see for yourself. On display in a show of the development process will be Luis Royo's "Medusa's Gaze" sculpted by Shungo Yazawa, Dorian Cleavenger's "Akira" by Plant-jzero Moekichi, and Boris Vallejo's "Monica's Axe" by Heavy Gauge's Tobe.

Also on display, the latest figures from Yamato's Story! Image! Figure! EX; Creators' Labo; TANDEM TWIN Animal Girls; and the GN-U Dou, Yamato's extraordinary tribute to the giant robots of Japanese anime in palm sized form with meticulous attention to detail, articulation, and posing. All this, as well as a veritable feast of anime, manga, video game figures on display from AAA Anime, await you at booth 4429. See you there, and have a great show!
