Viz Media has very welcome news to shelf candy collectors that would love to have Saitama aka “Caped Baldy” aka One-Punch Man, in their POP! vinyl collection.  The anime and manga company announced today that it had worked out licensing agreements with Funko, which will mean not only POP! vinyl figures, but Dorbz and Mystery Mini releases, as well as with Hong Kong toy company ThreeZero, which will manufacture a line of One-Punch Man action figures.

ThreeZero already has a Saitama figure available in either “Caped Baldy” attire or street dress, and a Genos figure is in development at the company.

In ONE-PUNCH MAN, nothing about Saitama passes the eyeball test when it comes to superheroes, from his lifeless expression to his bald head to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking guy has a not-so-average problem – he just can’t seem to find an opponent strong enough to take on! Every time a promising villain appears, he beats the snot out of ’em with one punch! Can Saitama finally find an opponent who can go toe-to-toe with him and give his life some meaning? Or is he doomed to a life of super-powered boredom?
