A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! God of war and son of Zeus, ARES has been both a hero and a villain in the stories of Marvel Comics. After frequent attempts to conquer Olympus and his own family, he has lately become an anti-hero serving with the Mighty Avengers. Massively powerful, the immortal Ares is a weapons master and expert at hand-to-hand combat, wearing ancient armor and wielding both sword and battle axe against his foes!

The first in The Kotobukiya Collection's chapter of Mighty Avengers Fine Art Busts, Ares is visually striking in his militant stance. In his left hand he holds his massive sword at the ready, while with his right he hefts his trusty battle axe over his shoulder. Covering his head is the god of war's great blue and gold helm, topped by a horsehair plume. His forearms and chest are armored, and on his back is strapped his round shield, scarred from many past battles. Ares' face is set in a grim stare as he readies his weapons for war.

The great Ares stands nearly 11 inches tall atop a classically-inspired base. On the front of the base is a representation of Ares' civilian face, and on the bottom is a metal plate marked with the individual serial number. Constructed from cold cast porcelain, Ares is sculpted by Junnosuke Abe and comes packaged in a stylish fifth panel window box. Look for more Mighty Avengers in the coming months and collect the whole team!
