Update [ Mon 18th Nov 2024, 10:30pm ]: After teasing it earlier in the year, plastic tat manufacturer Youtooz has now officially announced its PlayStation line – and it looks amazing. Featuring Astro Bot, Ratchet, Sly Cooper, and Kratos, each figurine is colourful, detailed, and posed nicely. The first four figures are will be available to pre-order this week, on 24th November, with the maker asked which characters you’d like to see next.
The figurines will ship between May and April next year, and will cost $29.99 apiece. You can find out more, including pre-order information, through the link .
Please note, though, the manufacturer will only ship the models to Canada, Mexico, Spain, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and USA due to “licensing restrictions”. Original Story: Have you otakus got enough space for a few more PlayStation-themed dust collectors? It looks like Yootooz, the Funko-esque toy company behind licensed collectible tat, is lining up a range of Sony goodies. A post on the company’s X (or Twitter ) account includes the famous PlayStation slogan “live in your world, play in ours”.
It shows four silhouettes: Kratos, Sly Cooper, Astro Bot, and Ratchet. The Sly Cooper model actually leaked earlier in the year: To be fair, we like the look of Youtooz much more than Funkos, and we reckon these could end up being pretty nice models for ultra-fans. We’d certainly consider grabbing a couple of these.
Presumably this is just the beginning of a collaboration which will extend to many different characters. Personally, we’d like to see some real deep-cuts from the PS1 era: Vib Ribbon and the cast of Motor Toon Grand Prix , for example. Oh, and how about Robbit from Jumping Flash! ?.
