Saint Seiya : Myth Cloth Gryphon Minos

Saint Seiya - Myth Cloth Gryphon Minos 
For fans of Saint Seiya, this is Saint Seiya : Myth Cloth Gryphon Minos . Celestial Noble Star, Gryphon Minos (天貴星グリフォンのミーノス, Tenkisei Gurifon no Mīnosu) was introduced by Kurumada in vol.24 of his manga.
Easily one of the most powerful warriors in all of the Underworld, Gryphon Minos is a high ranking official of Hades' army. Minos is one of the infamous 3 Judges of Hell, and has a fair amount of command over the soldiers that pledge their loyalty to the Greek God Hades.
Amongst all of the Specters in the Hades arc, Minos was shown to be one of the most competent and powerful. He was able to torture Gold Saint Gemini Kanon, and survived a Eighth Sense powered "Aurora Execution" attack from Bronze Saint Cygnus Hyoga.
Gryphon Minos' one and only known attack is his "Cosmic Marionettion" technique. As the name suggests, the move allows Minos to wrap his opponent with strings of Cosmo energy, entrapping and turning them into living, human marionnettes. In the anime adaptation, the Cosmic Marionettion was also able to control an enemy's technique, as shown when Minos manipulated the technique's Cosmo energy to reverse Pegasus Seiya's "Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken", deflect Andromeda Shun's "Nebular Chains", and counter both Cygnus Hyoga's "Diamond Dust" and Dragon Shiryu's "Rozan Ryu Hi Sho".

Use the armor on its own to build the Eta Robe Object!
Mime grew up with his father Folker, a powerful warrior who trained him against his will, since Mime himself wanted to be a musician. One day, Mime discovered that Folker had cruelly killed his true parents; guided by his fury and by Folker's acceptance and gloating, he killed Folker. After defeating Shun, who was disabled from using his chains, Mime fought against Ikki.

At the end of this battle, Mime discovered (by being attacked with the Phoenix Hōō Genma Ken) that Folker actually was a good man who killed Mime's parents unintentionally. Folker fought Mime's father but spared him when Folker found out that Mime's father was married, yet Mime's father still tried to attack, and when Folker fatally hit him in self-defense, Mime's mother attempted to stop them, but it was too late and both parents died. Then, Folker heard baby Mime crying in his crib, and out of guilt Folker took Mime as his child. Ultimately, Folker actually provoked Mime because he wanted to die by his adopted son's hand, to make up for the fatal mistake that cost Mime his true family.

Mime's famous last words to Ikki were that he wished that in a new life they could both be reborn as friends.
Named after the Nibelung Dwarf Mime, brother of the dwarven king Alberich, who trains and takes care of Siegfried
Mime has a similar attack style as Lyra Orphée, who is one of the most powerful Silver Saints under Saori Athena's banner.

Igunisu or Ignis (Protector of Humanity) is one of the few characters out of Jingai Makyou known to western audiences. She is a Demon Hunter with fiery red hair and an attractive figure. She's an expert martial artist and has superb skills with a Katana and numerous other weapons that she uses in her Demon Hunting. Despite not having the superhuman abilities of the Narazaru, she's more than a match in battle for them, using her superb fighting skills to overcome the most dangerous of adversaries. Despite her tough exterior, she's a friendly woman who quickly gets attracted to the main Hero of the game. Her flaw however is that she's zealous in her work and hence has earned enemies even among the Good aligned demons.

Shana (シャナ) / "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Hunter" (「炎髪灼眼の討ち手」 "Enpatsu Shakugan no Uchite") (Flame Haze). The female lead of the show and a Flame Haze. Initially she is concentrated solely on her duty as a Flame Haze, going as far as to not bearing even a name. She sees Yuji only as a Torch, an object, marginally interesting because of his status as a Mystes. However, she slowly opens up to Yuji, coming to think of him as a person, despite being a Torch, and eventually comes to love him. Until she met Yuji, she was identified by only her Flame Haze title "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Hunter," or her katana, Nietono no Shana (贄殿遮那 "Vairocana of the Offering Room"). Yuji, in his need to humanize her, chose to name her "Shana" after her katana. Shana has a habit of saying "Urusai!" which means "Shut up!" three times in a row whenever Yuji asks her questions or makes remarks that disturb her original point of view. But in reality they really care for each other. She has a great fondness for melon bread. Shana later comes to the startling conclusion that she loves Yuji, and even confesses it to him in the last episode of the first anime series when she thought she was going to die, but he does not hear what she said. Shana is continually torn between her mission to protect the balance, and her love for Yuji. Due to a decision she made near the end of the first season of the anime version, the closeness they once had began to erode as Yuji kept a distance from her because of it. However, it seems that Shana and Yuji have repaired the damage from their previous relationship.See details

Samurai Champloo : Jin Action Figure

Samurai Champloo - Jin Action Figure
From anime Samurai Champloo, this is Samurai Champloo : Jin Action Figure . Shinichiro Watanobe, the creator of Cowboy Bebop, brings you Samurai Champloo. A quirky, action packed period adventure that offers an edgy mix of martial arts combat and hip hop irreverence. This figure is about 7-inch.

Jin (仁) spent the vast majority of his life training in kenjutsu dojos. Unlike Mugen, it is legal for him to carry a daisho (two matching swords: a katana and a wakizashi), as he is of the samurai class. His swords have a lightning and twin-eyed design on the tsuba. He wears traditional hakama and gi in indigo blue patterned with a white diamond kamon made up of four small white diamonds. His kamon closely resembles that of the great Takeda Clan, leading to speculation that his family origins may be of nobility. He also sports a Buddhist Rosary and a pair of anachronistic wire-rimmed glasses (which he does not actually need), the latter of which is probably the single most distinctive aspect of his appearance and the one everybody remembers.
Samurai Champloo - Jin Action Figure
When he was 18, he was to be assassinated in his sleep by his sensei, Mariya Enshirou, at Kariya Kagetoki's insistence. Jin killed Mariya in self-defense, to his horror. He fled the dojo, becoming a ronin. His death is sought by many, including former classmates and not limited to fame-seekers. Mujushin was a real sword-fighting dojo, and Mariya Enshirou is known to have been the third master — although the circumstances of his death are unclear. The esoteric teachings of Mujushin become vitally important in the series finale. Jin is highly devoted to upholding Bushido and is in fact named after jin (benevolence), one of the seven samurai virtues.
