About This Item
"The ultimate wizard in terms of attack and defense." -Dark Magician Yu Gi Oh! Trading Card Flavor Text. The statue's concept is inspired by one of Dark Magician's iconic summoning poses in the anime, where he's in this "ready for action" stance with the Dark Magical Circle in the background. He has his left arm stretched out and is wielding the Magician's Rod in his right hand, ready to cast his signature spell: Dark Magic Attack. The smoke on the base adds emphasis that Dark Magician has been newly summoned onto the battlefield. Since Dark Magician's origin story dates back to Ancient Egyptian times, we decided to design the base to reflect this aspect of Dark Magician, from the sandy and rocky environment atop the base to the hieroglyphic patterns on the side.
