Takeda Shingen Full Suit of Armour

(Ref: AH2144)

The two gusoku (AH2144 & AH2015) are patterned after the battle armour of two of Japan’s most famous Daimyo or warlords. Oda Nobunaga played a key role in initiating the policy of uniting the feuding clans under one Shogun and was the most powerful Daimyo of his time, while his ally Takeda Shingen was one of the greatest Samurai commanders of his day and an astute governor of his people.
