Kinnikuman - Jump 50th Anniversary Figure - Jump 50th Anniversary Figure -Special-2 (Banpresto)Kinnikuman · Banpresto

Produced by Banpresto, this Kinnikuman figure was released as part of the Weekly Shonen Jump 50th Anniversary Figure collection, celebrating the legendary manga magazine's half-century milestone. The figure stands approximately 240mm tall and is made from ABS and PVC materials. It depicts Kinniku Suguru, the protagonist of the Kinnikuman series, in a special commemorative presentation. Kinnikuman, created by Yoshinori Nakai and Takashi Shimada, began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1979 and became one of the magazine's defining titles. The series follows Suguru, a clumsy, booger-eating superhero who gradually grows into a respected champion wrestler in the Chojin (superhuman) wrestling world. Kinnikuman helped pioneer the intergenerational wrestling manga genre and spawned a massive toy and keshi figure craze in Japan during the 1980s. This anniversary edition figure serves as both a celebration of Kinnikuman's contribution to Jump's history and a collectible for fans of classic shonen manga. Its special designation within the Jump 50th Anniversary line places it alongside figures of other iconic characters from the magazine's storied past.
