S.H.Figuarts Josuke Higashikata (東方仗助) is the next JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable figure from BANDAI SPIRITS and its TAMASHII NATIONS collectibles division. It’s slated for September 2026 at JPY 11,000 (appx. $72). It follows the earlier S.H.Figuarts Jotaro Kujo. Josuke gets his own shelf now.
S.H.Figuarts Josuke Higashikata is a 16 cm (appx. 6.3 in) action figure made by BANDAI SPIRITS under the TAMASHII NATIONS brand. It is scheduled for release in September 2026. The reference price is JPY 11,000 including tax (appx. $72).
The Coat Hem Is the Whole Argument
The detail I keep coming back to is the hem of Josuke’s school coat. TAMASHII NATIONS made it from a soft material with a wire running through it, so the long gakuran tails can flare, drape or swing behind a JoJo pose instead of blocking the hips. Hard plastic coat skirts are the usual reason these figures can’t sit low. This one bends.
Araki’s Face, Printed Not Brushed
The face uses the line’s digital coloring process, which prints the heavy eye shadow and sharp lid lines Hirohiko Araki draws. That’s how you get his hard, ink-like edges at 6.3 inches without a hand-painted wobble. Medicos’ Super Action Statue line, the long-time JoJo benchmark, leans on chunky sculpt and bold flat color. Figuarts goes finer. I think that suits Part 4’s cleaner art style.
The Chest Pins and the Pompadour
The heart and peace emblems on his collar are sculpted crisply, and they matter. Josuke looks like a delinquent, but he’s the kindest kid in Morioh, and those pins say it before he speaks. The proportions follow Araki’s build too, with a broad chest and a narrow waist. The pompadour is sculpted tall and glossy. Nobody insults it.
Faces, Hands and a Printed Stand
The set includes swap expressions, a pile of hand parts and a stand with an original printed design for airborne poses. The listing doesn’t mention Crazy Diamond. I’m watching for that. A Stand sold separately would change the math for a lot of Part 4 fans.
The Collector’s Survival Guide: How to Justify This
The Collector Math: Joseph Joestar didn’t show up for the first 16 years of Josuke’s life. This 16-centimeter Josuke costs about $72, which is $4.50 for every year Joseph missed. Per year, I’m a better Joestar than Joseph.
How to tell your wife: You’ve been asking me to fix that cabinet door for months. So I hired a guy whose Stand fixes anything it punches, and he’s $72 with no call-out fee. He starts Monday.
How to tell your parents: Mom, you always said to know your family tree. Josuke is Jotaro’s uncle even though he’s the younger one, and my Jotaro figure has been standing on that shelf without his family this whole time. It’s called genealogy, Mom.
How to tell your kids: This is Josuke, and the only way to make him truly angry is to insult his hair. You may admire the pompadour from where you are, you may not touch it, and nobody in this house laughs at anybody’s haircut. Nobody wants to hear ‘What did you say about my hair?’
The wired hem tells me TAMASHII NATIONS understood Josuke has to crouch like a delinquent and still look sharp. At JPY 11,000, that one engineering choice earns him a spot beside Jotaro, uncle and nephew finally in the same scale.
