The Art of War's latest Berserk collectible brings to life one of the most popular monochrome illustrations from the series. The Art of War's rendition of the symbolic Skull Knight head with Behelit and rose crown is hand-painted and revamped from the previous 2014 version.
Only 50 busts are planned, each costing 48,600 yen (US$484) or 62,640 yen (US$624) with frame included. Pre-orders are currently open and The Art of War will ship orders in November or December.
The Art of War previously released Behelits as stand-alone pieces, as well as other high-end Beserk statues of Zodd, a Skull Knight on his mount, Guts from the Battle of Doldrey, and many others.
The latest anime adaptation of Kentarō Miura's dark fantasy manga premiered in Japan in July. Crunchyroll is streaming the series as it airs in Japan.
