In Shadow of the Colossus or Wanda to Kyouzou as the game was known in Japan, players took control of a valiant hero who took on the mission of defeating colossi that lorded over a land. Seeking to resurrect a sacrificed maiden and compelled by a disembodied voice to venture forth and strike down the colossi, the hero performs his task with a sword and a faithful steed...Instead of celebrating the hero of the game, Kotobukiya fetes the first Colossus that attacked with a heavy cudgel and stomped around in an attempt to destroy the hero of the game. The mighty colossus is mounted on a replica stone slab where its haunches are seemingly coiled and ready for action. The beast measures 195mm or 7.67" tall and looks imposing with its dark demeanor and furrowed brow. The sculpt from Shinsukei Kataoka is excellent with detailed ridges, grooves, and ripples throughout the body of the monster. On the ground in front of the Colossus is a tiny figure of the hero who raises his sword defiantly.
