This vinyl figurine from the collections of leading manufacturer Banpresto depicts the legendary Fourth Hokage of Konoha and father of the protagonist: Minato Namikaze.

The figurine stands out for its imposing size, with a remarkable height of approximately 24 cm, offering a superb visual presence and a commanding stature to enhance a display cabinet or take pride of place on a manga shelf. The design captures Konoha’s hero in an upright posture exuding great serenity, reflecting his calculated calm, natural charisma and legendary speed. The high-quality PVC sculpture pays meticulous attention to the finest anatomical and sartorial details, perfectly reproducing his characteristic spiky blonde hair, his blue ninja outfit and, above all, his long, official white Hokage cloak with its flowing drapes, adorned with traditional red flame motifs at the hem. The meticulous application of paint highlights the contrasts in his outfit and the quiet determination on his face.

This officially licensed collectable is aimed directly at die-hard fans of Masashi Kishimoto’s Shōnen series, enthusiasts of the ninja universe and collectors of Banpresto figurines. The item is supplied mounted on its dedicated display base inside an illustrated printed box.

In the ninja universe created by Masashi Kishimoto, Minato Namikaze is an exceptional shinobi known worldwide by the nickname ‘Konoha’s Yellow Flash’ due to his divine and unrivalled speed. Trained by Master Jiraiya and later becoming the mentor to the young Kakashi Hatake, Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara, he developed revolutionary combat techniques, such as the Rasengan (Whirling Orb) and the Hiraishin (Flight of the God of Lightning), a precise space-time teleportation technique linked to his kunai marked with ritual seals. His heroic exploits during the Third Great Ninja War earned him the title of Fourth Hokage of the Hidden Village of Konoha. His fate takes a tragic turn during the brutal attack by the nine-tailed fox demon, Kurama, who is being manipulated behind the scenes by a mysterious masked man. To save his people and the future of the Shadow World, Minato and his wife Kushina Uzumaki made the ultimate sacrifice by sealing the cursed entity within the body of their newborn son, Naruto Uzumaki, entrusting him with the future of peace.
