The collectibles creator Youtooz teases some of their upcoming figures, with a few of them based on some iconic PlayStation characters. This is good timing, considering that the holiday season is just around the corner after Halloween last week.
As revealed on X, it teases the upcoming PlayStation Youtooz figures with the popular PlayStation 2 era catchphrase “Live in Your World, Play in Ours.” Only silhouettes of the PlayStation mascot characters are visible in front of the controller symbol lights. Looking closely, the most dedicated of PlayStation fans may be able to discern who each character is in front of their respective button symbol. Circle possibly looks like Sly Cooper and Square seems to illuminate Ratchet and Clank. The X button symbol (or Cross as it’s officially known by Sony) has Astro Bot, judging by the cape on his back. The figure standing in front of the Triangle symbol is harder to guess, but it may be possible that it is Kratos from the God of War.
Going back to Astro Bot, word of a possible Youtooz figure based on him has already been swirling around in prior months. This post also from X dates back to June, containing a screenshot of a Discord user asking a supposed Youtooz rep to make a figure based on Astro. Additionally with Halloween just last week, Reddit users discussed upcoming Youtooz figures after Astro Bot’s figure (among others) was spotted in a Halloween post.
For those unfamiliar with Youtooz, they are collectible figures similar to the arguably more popular Funko Pops. Though unlike Funkos, Youtooz figures are most typically sold for limited amounts of time. Its rare (if ever) for certain figures to be put back up for sale. Once Youtooz figures are done collecting orders (usually for 24 hours), it takes a matter of weeks or months to start shipping them out. By then, the figures are gone for good, and it is TBD if Youtooz makes newer figures based on specific characters. Oh, and even certain content creators get their own figures, like this past one of the YouTube channel The Act Man.
For now it remains to be seen how soon the upcoming PlayStation Youtooz figures will be announced. However, since most of the figures sell for $29.99 USD (except for some Limited Edition figures), it is safe to assume the PlayStation ones will sell at that price point. In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for when Youtooz starts taking pre-orders!
