Shingen or Nobunaga?

The description of Nobunaga is neat but the figure is NOT Nobunaga...

Yes It is Shingen and I have a one of them. It was one of a set of 8
different sengoku figures (along with Uesugi Kenshin, Hideyoshi, Ieyasu and
Nobunaga) made by Kabaya. Its a rather cheap plastic 'toy' in fact. The
diecast metal figures from Prado are much better. Funny thing is this was
only 200 yen at the convenience store where I got it.

Brilliant reasoning.

It's Shingen.

Perhaps you should tell the young man WHY it's
Shingen: It SAYS "Takeda Shingen" on the darn thing.

LOL

The description says Nobunaga but the sign next to the figure in the
photo says Takeda Shingen, and it shows a moustaschioed General
seated with a war fan. A very popular depiction of Shingen at
Kawanaka-jima...

As I said I have the figure myself and I can say beyond any doubt it is
Shingen.

LMAO!!! Oh my God, so even the guy that's selling the thing doesn't
know which figure it is (or for some reason is trying to fool
people...)
