Dragon Shiryu

Dragon Shiryu, numbered 807 in the Pop! Animation line, was released as part of Funko's expansion into classic anime properties. The figure is based on Shiryu, one of the central protagonists from the Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac franchise, a series that gained massive international acclaim following its debut in the 1980s. The design captures the character wearing his signature Dragon Bronze Cloth, a piece of mystical armor central to the show's lore, reflecting the series' blend of Greek mythology and zodiac-themed combat.

The figure features the characteristic Funko aesthetic—a stylized, oversized head and simplified facial features—while incorporating the specific teal and gold color palette associated with Shiryu’s armor. It was designed to cater to the nostalgia of long-time fans of the Masami Kurumada manga and the subsequent Toei Animation adaptation. Since its release, the item has served as a staple for collectors focusing on retro anime franchises, maintaining a steady presence among enthusiasts of 90s-era animation imports.
