This Premium Chokonose figure presents Sugimoto Saichi in a bold, compact pose that fits the chokonose design while preserving his rugged, battle-hardened charisma. The oversized head and expressive eyes capture his steely determination, while the sculpted hair shows careful texture. He wears a field jacket with layered straps and utility details, recreated with subtle weathering to imply years in the wild. The pose suggests movement, as if he has just halted mid-step during a tense pursuit, with a steady, confident stance and a hint of motion in the coat. The base is minimal but thematically hints at the frontier setting of the series. The color palette uses earthy browns, olive greens, and steel accents, with precise painting that highlights edges and folds for a premium display piece.

Sugimoto Saichi is a former Russo-Japanese War soldier who now roams 1900s Hokkaido in search of fortune to honor a fallen friend's memory and ensure the widow's future. Known for his endurance, streetwise survival skills, and almost stubborn honesty, he relies on raw grit to outlast brutal cold, hostile terrain, and criminals who chase a legendary stash of gold. Along his journey, he allies with Asirpa, a sharp-witted young Ainu girl, and confronts mercenaries, traitors, and the shadows of war. His code is simple: protect the weak, face danger head-on, and never abandon a comrade, no matter the odds.
