Static Arts Kingdom Hearts II Riku - Import Preorder

«©NCSX» Whereas the Static Arts Kingdom Hearts II sculpture of Sora was bright and chipper, Riku's Static Arts rendition is somber. Another descriptor might be "morose" but there's a reason for that. According to Kingdom Hearts lore, Riku was possessed by Xehanort's Heartless and summarily afflicted with Darkness in his heart. As such, Riku is generally a somber and morose kind of hero.

Square Enix starts preorders for a Riku statue which measures 30cm or 11.81" tall. Riku stands on top of a crag and wields a Keyblade called the

"Way to the Dawn" which was his weapon of choice in KHII. The sculpture shows the angel and demon wings around the blade's handle and a Heartless pendant may be seen swinging from the bottom of the weapon. Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late March 2009.
