I've been a fan of Golgo 13 for well over a decade, to this kinda stings to know he's gone. 84 isn't a bad age to end on with a legacy of creating a plethora of Golgo 13 between manga, films, anime, video games and custom airsoft rifles too look like his custom Colt MBar M-16 (or nuts like me that made a darn good knock-off of one with an AR-15.) I really hope the Fleming estate could or would ever approve of his James Bond manga to come to the states, let alone a whole release of his Golgo 13 series, but time will tell on that.

Scrolling 3 minutes into it and Saito has a life sized Golgo 13, and my instant reaction was "I want that so bad
" I'll give this a watch later, thanks for sharing! Reminds me of the interviews with Terasawa who did Cobra how he has a life sized Lady in his studio.
