While the Kotobukiya booth was not that big, they featured this killer Star-Lord / Baby Groot statue from GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2, which was hands-down my favorite reveal of Toy Fair. It is part of their popular 1/6th scale ArtFX line just like the Deadpool also on display. While the 9” scale Gallery Edition PVC statue from Diamond Select Toys (that you can see HERE) featured a great action pose, this statue perfectly captures the essence of Guardians with one simple addition; a Sony walkman. This piece is a ton of fun and Baby Groot getting in on the action just adds to that. This is one that will absolutely go into my collection as soon as it is released.

In addition to this must have item, other highlights from Kotobukiya include an impressive 1/6th scale Jason Voorhees coming this June, and Green Lantern joining the rest of the Justice League 1/6th scale Art FX statues. Check them out below…
