I once thought I saw one eating yakisoba, but I'd had quite a lot of sake.

P.S. I hope you're not yakuza?

NO never heard about him, but now I need a miniature for my collection too  lol.
I was thinking about a 32mm considering his reported height.

Just get one Samurai who is from a larger scale or model maker then you are using for the rest of your guys. And say that it is him. With a helmet know one will know the difference. Or just do a quick operation and but a more African head looking head on the model if you want to.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
