Kidrobot has just announced its snagged licensing to do Adult Swim characters from Cartoon Network. We all know how popular Adult Swim is with many viewers on Cartoon Network so I have no doubt if done right, these can really take off. I see this as something that is very good news for everyone in mind. Cartoon Network, Kidrobot, toy collectors and Cartoon Network fans. Consider all of those that may be Adult Swim watchers, but haven’t been exposed to the toy community. Could be a good thing indeed.

Kidrobot will develop figurines for a portfolio of characters featured during Adult Swim’s lineup. Starting in February 2008, 3-inch Blind Box mini figures will be available for fans willing to take a chance on what character they actually get inside. The chances of getting a particular figure are listed as percentage rates on the side of each branded box. All figures are wrapped in foil to prevent anyone from sneaking a peek at which character is featured, maintaining the experience and value to the line of figures. Kidrobot will feature 16-20 different figures per series, and be made available in the U.S., Canada, Europe and Latin America
