1956′s Forbidden Planet gave sci-fi fans one of the most iconic robot designs in history.  Now that design has been translated into two new action figures and imported from Japan by X-Plus.  The 12-inch version of Robby features 10 points of articulation and a black & white color scheme.  It’s available here for around $135.  The 9-inch toy has 5 points of articulation and a retro-style PVC body.  He’s going for $70 here with an estimated arrival date sometime in December.
