Tanjiro Kamado stands roughly 12 cm tall, sculpted in a stern combat stance with a Nichirin sword and Hinokami Kagura flame effects rendered in clear plastic. Nezuko Kamado takes an aerial pose, attached to a tree-like stand that makes her appear floating. The manufacturer, Sega Fave, notes that displaying the two figures together doubles the visual impact, with the height difference creating a layered composition. Each figure is a single type. Release timing is subject to change, and photos show prototypes under development.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Sega's Xross Link Tanjiro and Nezuko figures are designed to interlock poses, making the display itself part of the product.
