A-Type: Tokugawa Ieyasu

In ancient Japan, the samurai warriors were a living symbol of honor. Each samurai had their own specially made armor, and symbol to fly high on their flags while going into battle, as well as a katana to fight by their side. The Sengoku Samurai each have their own unique looking armor, that is tied to their name- no matter how many centuries have passed. These figures capture the beauty of the yoroi armor, as well as the flags and katana that these samurai fought along side with. Even on a much smaller scale these figures emulate the details and time that has gone into the making of the yoroi armor.

About the Samurai:

Tokugawa Ieyasu was the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate, which ruled Japan from the Battle of Sekigahara until the Meiji Restoration. Tokugawa was born to a very young couple and was the son of the the daimyou of the Mastudaira clan. Due to the split of his large family, he had been tossed back and forth between the Imagawa clan and the Oda clan, not as a friend but as a hostage. After fighting through many battles, Ieyasu managed to gain more and more power, which led him a strong life.
