Look. Chances are you’ve heard of Naruto. One of the most popular Shonen anime of all time, and star of the widely popular Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games, which let you pit your favorite ninjas against each other in cool arena combat matches.
Thanks to our friends at Bandai Namco Entertainment, we got our hands on the Premium Collector’s Edition for the newest entry: Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections– the perfect game for watching these young warriors go to town on each other. Having tried the game out at TGS this year, we absolutely couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to check this one out.
So naturally, the star of this collector’s edition is the Naruto and Sasuke figures, mid-Rasengan and Chidori respectively. As a huge Naruto fan it’s hard to not get hyped over seeing them do their iconic moves like this. The metallic finish is also a great touch, and is sure to make them look good in lit display cases.
They’re in a really dynamic pose too- I kind of wish it was one of those combo figures where it looks like they’re fighting each other, but thanks to the bases it’s hard to get them really close to each other for that nice dynamic team-up composition. The face sculpts are also pretty well done, with the painted on eyes looking good even in close-up shots.
Figures aside, there’s plenty more for the Naruto fan in the Premium Collector’s Edition. The set also includes a super-authentic Ninja Scroll, with a picture of the entire cast that’s sure to complement any living room set. It even comes with a certificate of authenticity, so your friends know you’re the real deal.
Additonally, there’s also a set of collectible trading cards, including all your favorite characters like Team 7, as well as Boruto himself. These feel pretty good in-hand, and the art definitely looks great when all lined up together.
Finally, the collector’s edition also thankfully includes the game itself! The Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections Premium Collector’s Edition even includes a snazzy steelbook case for your game, featuring sick art of Naruto and Sasuke that’s sure to look great displayed next to your figures .
Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections is available now, with a huge roster of characters spanning Naruto, Shippuden as well as Boruto. Our thanks again to Bandai Namco Entertainment for letting us celebrate the launch of the game in such a sleek and stylish way.
