In November 2017, leading collectible art platform Toy Qube partnered with Tezuka Productions on a limited edition Astro Boy vinyl figure. The most sought-after version from the toy launch was the all-black version of the highly-limited NYC edition.

In case you missed the release, we’re giving one lucky winner the Astro Boy NYC sculpture in all black as part of this year’s Advent Calendar 2018 installment through our art-dedicated Instagram handle, @hypebeastart, in partnership with Toy Qube. Standing at 8-inches tall, the toy also features subtle gold detailing throughout. Armed with a torch and tablet, the figure takes inspiration from the Statue of Liberty.
