Collection: Shoukichi Naruko

Where the Designs Come From

Releases include Acrylic Stands, tied to lines such as Birth Month Flower Ver., Pale Tone Series, Solid Color, Eterno Recit, Connect Road, Autumn Meeting, Tobu Zoo trading stands and Tadokoro Bread cafe in animate cafe goods. Sohoku High School Ver. artwork sits alongside life-size trading pieces and BIG format stands. Other characters are in Yowamushi Pedal.

Choosing a Size and a Palette

Acrylic stand sizing drives how the whole display reads, and mixing sizes is the simplest way to add variation to a row. Standard stands line up well and let a whole row of characters share one shelf, while BIG stands break the rhythm and give one design top billing. Trading formats suit a desk or a shallow ledge where a taller piece would not fit. Palette matters too: pale tone and solid colour printings give a calmer arrangement than the full colour illustration lines. Pieces are licensed Japanese merchandise, and the condition grade is stated on each listing.
