A dark Magic Kingdom
Chogokin King Robo Mickey & Friends
Ever imagined what Voltron would be like if it was made entirely of Disney characters? Japanese toy company Bandai makes it reality. While the end result isn't technically Voltron, the Disney characters, when combined, do form a pretty menacing robot beast called the Chogokin King Robo Mickey & Friends. Even the individual characters are stranger, darker robot versions of their cartoon selves. For example, Donald Duck is rendered as a metal warrior. Also included in the 'bot are Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, Pluto, Goofy, Pluto's doghouse and (oddly) Steamboat Willie. The entire set is available for preorder for $125.10. www.hlj.com/product/ban973124.
