New action figure of Hunter x Hunter’s Leorio captures his most emotional and powerful moments
A new action figure based on Leorio from the popular anime series Hunter x Hunter has been announced by Bandai Spirits.
The new figure is the latest entry in the “S.H.Figuarts” line, a collector-focused series of premium, highly-articulated figures.
Leorio is one of the four main protagonists of the series, a loyal friend who is studying to become a doctor, and this new figure is set to capture his expressive and often emotional personality.
The figure comes with four different interchangeable face plates to recreate his various moods, including a “shouting face” for combat and an emotional “crying face,” which is designed to replicate his reaction to Gon’s recovery.
It also includes a variety of interchangeable hands and a special effect part that allows fans to recreate the powerful Nen ability that he unleashes on Ging during the “13th Hunter Chairman Election Arc.”
Launching for pre-order at the same time is a new S.H.Figuarts figure of the character Kurapika.
This figure comes with four different face plates, two with his normal eyes and two with his activated “Scarlet Eyes,” as well as a variety of hand parts that allow for the recreation of his unique Nen chain abilities.
Each of the two new S.H.Figuarts is priced at ¥9,900 (approx. $67 USD/£50 GBP).
Pre-orders for both figures are scheduled to open at general retail stores from Thursday, the 28th of August, 2025.
The S.H.Figuarts Leorio is scheduled to be released in March 2026, followed by the S.H.Figuarts Kurapika in April 2026.
