'Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4' limited edition collectibles - what to know

 Bandai Namco

"Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" is almost here but Bandai Namco has yet to run out of goodies to excite fans further about the fighting game's nearing launch. Just recently, the publisher unveiled limited edition statues modelled to Naruto and Sasuke.

In collaboration with statue manufacturer Tsume, Bandai Namco is releasing the figurines depicting the said lead characters. The statues are 11 inches tall and weigh 3 pounds max. Bandai Namco bills them as one of the "most detailed ever" outings by Tsume.

Made from polystone resin, the "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" collectibles were hand-painted and were designed in such a way that the characters appear as though they are going to give a bad guy some beatdown. Naruto and Sasuke are looking both ready to pounce.

The statues also come with a magnetic base to keep them steady and a certificate of authenticity to know it's the real deal. While they already look amazing on their own, the Naruto and Sasuke statues will look better when displayed together, as Bandai Namco promised.

There will only be 500 figurines for each character available in America (a total of 1000 units worldwide), so fans who want to be one of the owners of these "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" collectible figures would want to pre-order them now from the Bandai Namco Game Store.

Each must-have statue costs $299 but players can bundle them with a copy of the game all for $329. Check them out here and here. The shipping date will be February 2016, probably around the same time the title officially launches.

"Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" will be released for PC, Xbox One and PS4 in Japan on Feb. 4. Those in Europe will get it on Feb. 5 while North America will have to wait until Feb. 9 to be able to play the latest and final iteration of the beloved fighting game series.

A new trailer for the game shows Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura in a battle against Obito and Madara.
