Iconic Tower of the Sun Becomes Transforming Mech Figure

After the Hello Kitty mech, Bandai continues to find interesting ways of celebrating the 40th anniversary of its Chogokin ("super alloy") die-cast metal figures with a transforming mecha version of the Tower of the Sun, artist Tarō Okamoto's iconic structure, built in Osaka for Expo '70. This figure, standing 28cm as the transformed humanoid, ships in September for 17,000 yen.
