NYCC 2014 Funko Hikari Groot Figures Revealed!

I had a terrible first hour and a half at New York Comic Con 2014 this year, as I immediately got into the Toy Tokyo line at show opening at noon. At 1:25, after 85 minutes and moving four steps forward, I flipped out and walked off. BUT–!! It was worth my meaningless hour and a half in line, because when storming off I caught sight of the just-revealed Funko Hikari Groot vinyl figures!

Initially I could only grab a quick photo from a few feet away, as the line was right in front of the display case I needed to photograph, but just from the glance I caught (and bad photo), I already feel like Funko’s hand is reaching into my wallet and pulling out hundreds of dollars of my money.

Once things cooled down later on in the afternoon, I went back to then Toy Tokyo booth to snap a million more photos of the Funko Groot Hikari vinyls.

While most of these Funko Hikari Groot figures have non-canonical colorways, every single one of them looks like a true work of art.

There weren’t any other Hikari on the shelf with Groot, so I couldn’t tell if he’s the standard $50 6″ Hikari or the $80 8″ variety. I’m hoping for the former, because I want them all, and that may not be an option at 80 bucks each.

I’ll be posting updates on the Funko Groot Hikari Vinyls as Funko makes more details available, and you can follow Marvel Toy News on Facebook to have Marvel toy news, updates and photos beamed right to your Facebook Newsfeed.

Based off these prototypes, how do you like the 8″ Groot Hikari Vinyls, Marvel collectors? Will Funko be taking your $50-$80 each for any of these Funko Hikari Sofubi Groot vinyl figures?
