Mogura House Kenta Kobashi statue figure review

Very few figure companies in Japan come close to the coolness factor of Mogura
House and their dizzying amount of figure variants. Character Product may have
their clear, bronze and figures designed with different colored ring attires, but
Mogura House took collecting one step further with our next figure spotlight.

Blog #140 is all about the super RARE Kenta Kobashi DX statue figure variant by
Mogura House.

This Kenta Kobashi figure comes from Mogura House's deluxe (DX) figure line which
featured sturdier clamshell packaging, an acrylic display stand, 2 acrylic foot holders
and an acrylic name plate.

The first figures created by Mogura House to receive the black and white treatment
were those created of "The Father of Puroresu" Rikidozan. The idea behind the odd
lack of colors was to recreate the concept of watching a Wrestling match on a black
and white television back in the 1950's.

Along with Rikidozan, Kenta Kobashi would also receive the black and white figure
treatment; allowing fans to imagine what it would have been like if "The Maximum
Innovator" would have competed in the pioneering days of Japanese Pro-Wrestling.

Even Kobashi's two Pro-Wrestling NOAH GHC Championship belts also lack
color.

Alongside the statue-esque black and white version, Mogura House would
also release another variant in sepia colors. It is rumored that both variants
are limited to only an estimated 100 pieces each - making them some of the
absolute rarest Kenta Kobashi figures ever created!
