So it looks like Kidrobot is gearing up to release a new group of regular-sized ‘Bot figures inspired by famous cities. Perhaps this is a follow-up of sorts to the City ‘Bots minis (2012).   Yesterday, we showed you a photo of what we called the “Bull Bot” from Toy Fair.  Now, Alvin Ong has shared an image of an “LA” ‘Bot—riffing off the city’s “fit” / workout-crazed stereotype—that  he received from Kidrobot.

So far we have an NYC and LA design, are there more, and how will they be sold? It’s also worth noting that these figures use the “new” streamlined ‘Bot design first seen with the KR x Keith Haring (RED) releases.  The OG Tristan Eaton design with sculpted watch and facial details may be officially retired.
