Chinese toy manufacturer Rocket Toys, established in 2020 and specializing in articulated figures, recently announced two new releases from the video game "Sengoku Basara": "Date Masamune" and "Sanada Yukimura"! This article focuses on the product details for the 1/6 scale figure of the One-Eyed Dragon of Oshu himself, "Date Masamune," slated for a Q4 2022 release.

The "Sengoku Basara" series is a Musou-style action video game developed by CAPCOM. The first title launched on PS2 in 2005, with subsequent entries released on platforms like PS3, PS4, and Wii. Set during Japan's Sengoku period, "Sengoku Basara" offers the exhilarating thrill of mowing down hordes of enemies, explosive hit counts, and stylish, over-the-top moves. Its biggest draw, however, is the dramatic and often exaggerated reinterpretation of historical figures, twisting their stories for maximum impact—such as Oda Nobunaga as a true Demon King, Akechi Mitsuhide as a grim reaper, or the hilariously Gundam-esque Honda Tadakatsu!

This officially licensed "Date Masamune" figure, standing approximately 32 cm tall, meticulously recreates his exaggerated in-game appearance using a blend of genuine leather, fabric, alloy, and PVC. Key elements like his striking crescent moon emblem, the bat-wing-like three-katana sheath, and his iconic one-eyed dragon aesthetic are all faithfully reproduced. The arm guards, skirt armor, leg armor, high-collar vest, and belt create a rich sense of layered detail. Posing him with his "Six Claws"—six katanas—allows collectors to recreate his dynamic drawing stance and powerful Basara Art moves. As a special bonus, the figure also includes an unhelmeted, serious expression head sculpt.
