News coming to us today from William Winckler over at the Facebook group “Vinyl Kaiji Legion” shows that Gigantor is coming to Funko not just Pop! form, but also in Hikari form. Check it out.
In addition, there looks to be some variations as well:
According to Winckler:
New GIGANTOR vinyl robot toy line coming soon from Funko (Hikari Vinyl). . . licensed for English speaking territories by William Winckler Prods. & Fred Ladd / Entercolor Technologies Corp.
Funko has the license to produce the GIGANTOR “hero” robot, as well as the various “villain robots” that GIGANTOR fought in the 52 English language episodes of the classic 1960s series produced by Fred Ladd. Should the initial sales be successful, the other GIGANTOR characters will be released.
What do you think of the new Gigantor Hikari? Will you be adding it to your collection? Let us know.
Thank you to Funko Trading member Juan Lopez for the heads up about this breaking news.
