Onimusha..

[zach]

So I've heard that Takeshi Kaneshiro is in a movie Onimusha? Yet I can't seem to find any information about that. Can somebody help? ;D thanks.

It's not a movie. It's a video game series for the PlayStation 2.

He's the main character in Onimusha: Warlords and Onimusha 3: Demon Siege, Samanosuke Akechi.

It would be cool if they cast Takeshi as Samanosuke in the upcoming Onimusha movie. I read that Donnie Yen might get a cameo as Samanosuke but all is still rumors and nothing is concrete yet. Gaga Communications picked up the rights to Onimusha and also Devil May Cry as well.

MissCarlos you're probably the only one who knows what I'm talking about huh? Other members of this forum are probably scratching their heads and saying, "What the heck is Devil May Cry? Onimu...What!?!?"

As a BIG Donnie Yen fan, I think this would be cool. But, considering all the work that he IS doing for the next year, I doubt it'll happen. He may do the action choreography, but I dunno. Will have to wait and see. He's been rumored on so many things, it's hard to tell anymore.

great games at that

Hey...you could buy some Ken dolls (Barbie's boyfriend/ex-boyfriend?) and strip him of his clothing. Then you can dress up this Samanosuke figure with the clothes. Wouldn't that be cool? It would be like having a miniature Takeshi in your room modeling clothing....in a samurai stance...... Too bad this costs around $250 US.

OMG. I sooo need one of those! Link please, Samanosuke! Valentine's day is coming. You don't think my husband will mind purchasing me a statue of another man for Valentine's Day, do you? ;D

The rights to an Onimusha movie have been sold, but it's been a couple of years and it's still in "development." Doesn't wound promising.

There's one of these being sold on Ebay right now. That's pretty much the only place you can find this. This Samanosuke figure is really rare. The toy company that made these figures stopped making them so this is out of print.

I uploaded a promo video of Onimusha 3,go and check it out!

PS:Onimusha 3 is my fav game,recently i played it a lot

[kris]

$250 wow! that's pricey for a doll....how big is it?

[lisab]

I think that's Hong Kong dollars. I can find it for $99 US.

But THIS is what I want!

Hey lisab!! How cool. I was just looking at those a few weeks ago. I just wish they would also make little Samanosuke and Oda figurines.

Can you tell me where I can get the Samanosuke figurine for $99? I know it was $99 when it first came out. But now since its out of print it is so expensive. I would really like to have one but I find it hard to pay over a hundred to two hundred for it.


Kris - I think that Samanosuke figure is about 6 or 8 inches tall. I collect some anime figures and the small ones are usually 2 to 4 inches tall. The bigger ones like the Samanosuke figure are usually 6 to 8 inches.

[MissCarlos]

I want that figurine AND his shippuu!!

Here's a link to close up pics of the weapons.

Up close I don't think it's the Shippu. I think it's the Seppumaru. Nitpicky, I know.

I found the Samanosuke statue on Ebay for $99. I think I searched for 'Onimusha' and 'statue'.
