“The Iron Giant”: Mondo’s New Figure IS Superman

Arguably one of the best animated features from the mind of Brad Bird, The Iron Giant remains a favorite with children and adults alike. If you’ve never seen the film, it’s about a giant robot with memory loss who befriends a young boy in a quiet seaside town in 1957 during the height of the Cold War.  It is actually based on 1968 novel “The Iron Man” by Ted Hughes. Many people forget also that Vin Diesel was the voice of Giant, uttering those heart wrenching phrases of “Suuuuuupermaaaaaan” and “I am NOT a gun.”

Well, Mondo has outdone themselves with this new piece.  The figure features over 30 points of articulation, two interchangeable heads with a light up feature, magnetic “S” that can be detached from its sign and attached to his chest, switch-out “War Arm,” Hogarth mini-figure, and a girder to munch on. In addition to this, the figure also includes a sound feature, with Iron Giant quotes from the film!

Available exclusively on our site, we’ll also have a special limited edition version that comes with the “Hand Under Foot” accessory, modeled after the Iron Giant’s detached hand that runs loose in the farmhouse:

It sure looks like Brad Bird approves!

Both versions of the Iron Giant Deluxe Figure will be available online Thursday, January 22nd.  Mondo suggests following their official twitter for updates.
