Twenty-five years. Naruto Shippuden characters still move faster than most of what’s been released since. That’s not nostalgia. The series solved something that a lot of anime doesn’t — every main character has a reason to be in the story that you can state in one sentence, and that sentence doesn’t require backstory to land.
The Naruto Toys lineup at Blokees runs from the $19.99 Champion Class kits for the core four characters, to the $49.99 Legend Edition Kurama as a dedicated shelf centrepiece, down to the $8.99 GV Surprise Box packs for wave collecting. They’re not competing with each other — they’re different answers to the same question of how you want the series to sit on your shelf.

Why Naruto Characters Are So Popular

The fights are good. Really good, actually. But fans don’t rewatch for the choreography — they rewatch because they’ve spent forty or fifty episodes understanding what’s on the line for both people in the fight. That’s what makes those scenes hit differently.
There’s something else, too. The show is unusually direct about what its characters want. Naruto wants to be acknowledged. Full stop. Sasuke wants the people responsible for his clan to die. Minato wanted his son to survive him. Boruto doesn’t want his father’s life; he wants his own. You can say any of that in one sentence. It’s rare for a long-running series to keep that kind of clarity.
For collectors, it’s that clarity that makes shelf decisions easy. You don’t need a label to explain Naruto and Sasuke facing each other across eight centimetres of shelf space. Anyone who’s seen the show knows exactly what that gap represents.

Naruto Uzumaki

Failed his Academy exam three times. Had the Nine-Tails sealed in him before he could talk. Spent his childhood being avoided by most of the village. And then, a couple of hundred episodes later, he’s the Seventh Hokage. It earns every step, which is why it works. The Naruto Champion Class 02 kit is his Shippuden form — 22 articulation points, Rasenshuriken, Rasengan, Kunai, cloud effect parts, three swappable faces, multiple hand sets, display stand.
Sasuke Uchiha

His older brother killed the entire Uchiha clan when Sasuke was seven. Then halfway through Shippuden, you find out his brother did it under direct orders — to stop a coup, to protect the village, out of love. It rewrites everything. The Champion Class 04 kit is for that version of Sasuke: Chidori sword, three face sculpts, interchangeable hands, super articulation deep enough to hold a forward-lunge pose without slipping.
Minato Namikaze

He’s in the lineup as his Reanimation form, not his classic Fourth Hokage design. That distinction matters more than it might seem — the Reanimation form is the one that shows up beside Naruto in the war arc, the father-and-son moment the whole series had been toward since chapter one. Champion Class 03, articulated, swappable faces and hands.
Boruto Uzumaki

Naruto’s son, and he’d like to be more than that. The Karma mark he inherits from Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki makes his situation considerably more complicated than just living in a famous person’s shadow — but that’s the Boruto series’ problem to work through. Champion Class 01 is his core design, simpler accessories than the Shippuden characters, which actually makes it a reasonable first kit if you’re new.
Who Is the Strongest Naruto Character?

Naruto Uzumaki at Six Paths Sage Mode. That’s the answer. Sasuke at his Rinnegan peak matches him exactly — they’re written to be equals in the final arc. Below them, Madara as Ten-Tails Jinchuriki is the war’s ceiling. And Kurama, separately, is the strongest of the nine Tailed Beasts.

The Naruto Shippuden Legend Edition 01 Kurama (Nine Tails) is the biggest thing in the lineup. $49.99, 263 pieces, 31 articulation points, nine tails you can repose individually, magnetic light-up chest. Give it its own shelf level — it’s too large to share space with the Champion Class kits without the scale looking wrong.
Naruto Shippuden GV Series Explained

The Naruto Shippuden GV packs are $8.99 each. Random pull — you don’t choose who you get. Each wave has a standard roster and chase version variants, which come up less often than the regular characters. If you need a specific character, the GV format isn’t for that. Go with the Champion Class open-selection kit instead. These packs are for people who actually want the pull experience, and specifically for anyone going after the chase version variants.

Which Naruto Character Are You?

A lot of people pick the character they recognise in themselves rather than just the one they like most. Those aren’t always the same choice.

The core trait
|
What that actually means
|
|
Naruto Uzumaki
|
Stubborn optimist
|
Doesn’t quit regardless of how outmatched he is
|
He doesn’t win because he’s most talented. He wins because he genuinely doesn’t know when to stop.
|
|
Sasuke Uchiha
|
Driven loner
|
Locks onto a goal and won’t bend
|
His focus is his strength and his problem simultaneously. He’s never been able to separate them.
|
|
Minato Namikaze
|
Quiet precision
|
Protects people by thinking further ahead, not by being louder
|
The people he protects get to react. He can’t afford to.
|
|
Boruto Uzumaki
|
Restless talent
|
Wants something that isn’t already his father’s
|
Being good at things quickly doesn’t mean you know what they’re for yet. He’s still working that out.

Conclusion
These kits hold together because the series holds together. Naruto and Sasuke don’t really make sense apart. Minato belongs near his son. Kurama belongs above everything else on the shelf, because that’s accurate to how the character works in the story.
FAQs
What are some facts about Naruto’s character?
Born October 10th. Nine-Tails sealed inside him at birth by his father Minato — who died doing it. Failed his Academy exam three times. Eventually became the Seventh Hokage. Married Hinata Hyuga. Two kids: Boruto and Himawari.
The name comes from narutomaki, the fish cake you find in ramen. Naruto’s favourite food. Kishimoto planned that detail from the start — it’s in the name, in the Rasengan spiral, in the whirlpool of the Uzumaki clan crest.
Who are the 10 main characters in Naruto?
The core ten across both series: Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, Kakashi Hatake, Minato Namikaze, Jiraiya, Tsunade, Itachi Uchiha, Gaara, Hinata Hyuga. Boruto shifts the lead generation to Boruto Uzumaki, Sarada Uchiha, Mitsuki, and Konohamaru. Full list at
Who is top 5 in Naruto?
In Shippuden specifically: Naruto Uzumaki at Six Paths, Sasuke at Rinnegan, Madara as Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki. Boruto introduces a different power tier. Those rankings don’t really carry over.
Which Naruto character is the strongest?
Naruto Uzumaki at Six Paths Sage Mode with full Kurama chakra. Sasuke at Rinnegan matches him. Kaguya technically exceeds both but she’s the final antagonist, not a shinobi in the conventional sense.
Who is Team 7 in Naruto?
Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura as the three Genin, with Kakashi Hatake as jonin sensei. That’s the original lineup. In Shippuden’s second part, Sai takes Sasuke’s spot after Sasuke leaves, and Yamato acts as stand-in captain. When people say Team 7, they usually still mean the original four. Full series detail at Wikipedia — List of Naruto Characters.
What is Naruto’s full name?
Naruto Uzumaki. He takes his mother Kushina’s surname, not his father Minato Namikaze’s. His father’s identity was kept chase version during his childhood for protection — so he grew up with no connection to either parent’s name until later in the series.
Which girl did Naruto marry?
Hinata Hyuga. After Shippuden ends and through The Last: Naruto the Movie. Their son Boruto leads the sequel series.
Who is Sakura’s baby daddy?
Sasuke Uchiha. Their daughter is Sarada Uchiha — main character in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. The relationship is covered in Naruto: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring.
Who is Naruto’s favorite student?
Konohamaru Sarutobi. Naruto taught him the Rasengan in the original series — at an age where he probably wasn’t supposed to. It’s less a formal teaching relationship and more that Naruto is the person Konohamaru patterned his whole ambition around.
Who is the weakest Hokage?
Depends what ‘weakest’ means here. On raw combat output, Tsunade is usually where that argument lands. She’s still a serious fighter and the best medical ninja in the series. But next to Minato’s Flying Raijin speed or Naruto with Kurama’s full chakra, she’s at a structural disadvantage. She also kept Konoha functional through the Akatsuki arc, which counts for something.
