August 17, 2014 : Finally, An Iron Giant Toy
This is a few weeks late, but Mondo (the art company that primarily makes stylized posters of movies) recently announced that it is getting into the toy business; and they’re doing it the best way I can imagine… by releasing a 16″ Iron Giant Toy!
A few things that will be included with it: a Hogarth figure, scraps of metal to chew on, and an interchangeable head and gun attachment – thus giving him a choice between his regular version and his ‘Battle Mode’ version.
Apparently to ensure its accuracy, the figure was designed from the actual CG files used in the film. As a side note, how awesome would it be to get said CG files?
The specifics of the release have not been announced, including when it will be made available or the cost; however, something tells me it will not be cheap. In any event, I plan on keeping an eye out for any updates.
