Like A Dragon's Ichiban Gets A New Statue Just In Time For Infinite Wealth

thegamer.com:

Hard to believe after playing two new Like A Dragon games in 2023, there's an even bigger installment launching before the end of January 2024. Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth brings the long-running series to th US after Kazuma Ichiban washes up naked on a Hawaiian beach. If the game alone isn't enough to quench your Yakuza thirst, you can also pick up an Ichiban statue modeled after the character's signature look. Clothes on, unfortunately.

Created by Dig, the Ichiban statue is available for pre-order through the links in the box below. Wearing his iconic red suit, and winning smile, the statue's right arm can be adjusted so it's either down by Ichiban's side or held aloft. The reason you'd want to have the statue hold its arm aloft is because it comes with Ichiban's baseball bat, complete with barbed wire wrapped around it. Mick Foley would be proud.

Standing at eight and a half inches tall, including its base, Dig's Ichiban statue is available to pre-order now for $72.99. There is a catch though, and it's a big one if you were hoping Ichiban was going to watch you play through Infinite Wealth later this month. Even though you can buy the statue right now, it won't ship until October 2024. The good news is, at this rate, Sega will have likely announced three more Like A Dragon games by that point anyway.

Dig's Like A Dragon Ichiban Kasuga statue is 8.5 inches tall and puts the protagonist in his iconic red suit. It also comes with a stand and Ichiban's baseball bat which can be placed in or removed from the statue's hand.

If Infinite Wealth has piqued your interest in the Like A Dragon games but you've never played one and the alarmingly fast release rate puts you off, you can currently pick up a lot of Yakuza games
