Tsume has done a few great Naruto High Quality Statues (HQS) in the past. These are Naruto Uzumaki Summon of Gamakichi, Gaara Shukaku's Hand and Art of Bang. Adding to this line-up is Haruno Sakura in her own statue entitled "Undefective Bonds". I don't know what that title really meant for the statue since she's standing on top of three Sasori’s puppets.
While the statue's detailing looks great and Sakura's appearance looks bad-ass strong here, I don't find the whole diorama appealing. To me it's looks somewhat morbid because of those puppets that looks like slaughtered humans. It's not pleasing to the eye and it does not fit Sakura's personality.
Yeah, I know, she really did beat Sasori on the manga/anime. But maybe it's better if they just made it less disturbing, like fighting face to face against Sasori or just simply punching a puppet. I don't know, maybe Tsume should have thought of something else. For the price tag of 279€, I find it too expensive for my liking. I'd rather be spending that amount on something else. This diorama statue is limited to 600 pieces only by the way.
