Mondo, known for creating exquisitely bad-ass novelty movie posters crafted by some of the world's greatest commercial artists, is now edging into the collectible figure business with their 16" tall Iron Giant figure.

Priced at $300, it comes complete with over 30 points of articulation, light up and sound effect feature, Hogarth mini-figure accessory, and detachable hand-cannon, red-eyed head variant and magnetic "Superman" chest plate; with an additional walking-hand attachment for the additional price of $15. Pre-orders go on sale tomorrow(!), so snatch one up while you still have the cash and time.

Brad Bird's 1999 directorial debut The Iron Giant the film not only asserted himself as the director who would go on to direct subsequent classics such as The Incredibles and Ratatouille, but it also introduced us to Vin Disiel's proto-Groot role as the movie's titular iron-plated Goliath with a heart of gold. We may not have that long-awaited Blu-ray release yet, but at least we have this gorgeous figure to tide us over with.

I've never been one to worry about what my wallet looks like, but this has definitely made me second guess. Jacob Vadnais has created one of the coolest gaming inspired accessory I've ever laid eyes on and I'm already getting ready to make a wallet transfer. Unfortunately, as much as we'd all like to own one, his Etsy store seems to be completely out for the time being. 

For the time being you can hit the jump to take a look at the amazing detail. Who knows, maybe by the time you're done there will be more back in stock.

At this current moment in time I'm freaking out like a Twilight fangirl as I sit here in disbelief over Konami's newest announcement; Metal Gear: Ground Zeroes. While very few details have been confirmed, it is known that this next MG iteration will take place in an open-world environment, allowing for players to stealth their way through an entire map. The game might either be an open world title or yet another single player title, but I really hope to see Kojima evolve the multiplayer aspect of the MGS games.
