Fans of the hit anime The Big O can celebrate the popularity of
the series with two new sets of mini figures, available exclusively in
North America from Diamond Comic Distributors!
The Big O is one
of the most popular anime series currently airing. The show, which was
originally 13 episodes long, spawned so much acclaim from viewers that Cartoon
Network co-produced a second season, which is currently airing on the network's
"Adult Swim" programming. Now, the success of the show has reached new markets,
and with the release of the Big O Mini Figure Set A and Set B,
fans and collectors can now express their love for the show and cool
collectibles.
Manufactured by Kotobukiya of Japan, the characters and
mecha from the highly praised anime are available in two sets of highly
detailed, gashapon-style mini-figures! Set A includes Big O,
Dorothy-1, Dorothy Wayneright & Norman Burg, and The
Griffon (Roger's car), and Set B includes Attack Mode Big O,
Big Duo, Schwarzwald, and Roger Smith. Each
non-articulated, 3" tall figure is expertly sculpted and designed to look like
the design that fans have grown accustomed to in the series.
Fans can
find this and other great products based on today's most popular anime
properties at their local comics shop, or by contacting the Comic Shop Locator
