The second in an extremely limited series of sporting figures from Kotobukiya, the legendary icon of Formula One Racing returns in an all new commemorative Fine Art Statue commemorating five decades since his birth: AYRTON SENNA – 50TH ANNIVERSARY! A hero in his homeland of Brazil and Japan where he competed in some of his most famous races, Senna’s career included 41 race victories, 65 pole positions and three world championships. His legacy of philanthropy rivals that of his racing; only after his death behind the wheel during the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix was it discovered that he had donated millions of dollars from his personal fortune to children’s charities.

Appearing as he did after winning the Brazil GP 1991, Senna stands triumphant with his right hand holding his trophy up in the air. The legendary driver wears his red Honda Nacional driving uniform, intricately detailed with every seam, crease and sponsor patch. The details go even further, after the gruelling race, in which gear box troubles left him with a numb left arm, even that is reflected in the statue! Sculpted by Koei Matsumoto and Shinya Akao, Senna’s face features an amazingly realistic sculpt and the Fine Art Statue has been officially approved by the driver’s sister Viviane Senna. Senna stands 13 inches tall and his special base is decorated with the Senna Foundation’s 50th anniversary logo and serial number. The logo is also prominently displayed on the anniversary packaging, making this a truly one of a kind commemorative Fine Art Statue.
