Kazuma Kiryu Takes His Short Off for New Yakuza Figure

There’s a new Like a Dragon figure, and it’s of Yakuza mainstay Kazuma Kiryu with his shirt off, ready to fight. Pre-orders are already open for the Battle Style figure ahead of its expected September 2024 debut.

Though this is a Japanese DIGSTA figure, retailers are showing it for sale outside Japan. For example, AmiAmi has standard and bonus versions of it for sale. The standard one is listed for 8,980 yen (~$61). The one with a bonus is 9,460 yen (~$64), and it comes with a display cloth of Kiryu to stand it on. 

This is a static figure that stands at about 175mm (under 7 inches) tall. There are no additional parts to it. However, in the past a DIGSTA version of Kiryu in his full suit did appear.

Here’s a gallery showing off the figure.

And here it is with the bonus display cloth.

While Kazuma Kiryu was set to “retire” in Yakuza 6: The Song of Life, he returned in the standalone title Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name and Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. 

The most recent Yakuza game is Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. This Kazuma Kiryu figure of the Like a Dragon protagonist in his classic Yakuza attire will arrive in Spetember 2024.
