AstroBoy Online Forums

for those interested astroboy toys are now availible on ABC online shop.

These can be picked up all over the place now. I have seen them at Big-w, Target, K-Mart, etc.

Truth be told they are crappy. $14.00 for a toy that looks like you could win it in a bubblegum machine. Not only that, but they do not look like 'official' toys. Astro only <resembles> asto, it doesnt look like it <is> astro. The most horrendous thing is there are three different Astroboys and one Atlas and thats it! Where the hell are the other characters?? And just to add insult to injury, of the three astroboy versions, he has a cranky facial expression in every one of them. Why the hell could we not have just ONE of them with him smiling, or at least a generic neutral expression.

Be warned my fellow AstroHolics.. these toys are a major dissapointment.
