Characters from the famous role-playing game (RPG) "Kingdom Hearts," Sora, Riku, Kairi, and the Heartless in their Funko Pop! versions will be available in Amazon on Dec. 15.

The vinyl figures will first be released in the North American region. Standing at 3 ¾ inches, each stylized figure recreates the facial and physical features of the game characters that gamers will immediately recognize.

Sora's figure will be wearing his iconic all-black outfit and wielding a keyblade. Like most Funko Pop!, Sora will have a beady black eye and square face. Riku's figure will be wearing a white and blue outfit and carrying his red keyblade. Kairi will be seen wearing her iconic pink one-piece dress.

The Heartless Funko Pop! figure will be seen with its baleful yellow eyes and all-black body. Each figure is listed with a price tag of $10.99.

Announced last June, the new figures will complete the collection line that was started with the Donald Duck, Goofy, Mickey Mouse, and Pete as well as Chip and Dale figures.

Fans of the Japanese role-playing game (JRPG) will sure be treated with gaming nostalgia once they see their favorite Disney-Square crossover characters in super-deformed forms.

The accuracy of the figures to the JRPG was highly noted by fans and collectors. At one glance, anyone who has played the game will surely recognize the new set of Funko Pop! figures. The figures will be numbered 331 (Sora), 332 (Kairi), 333 (Riku), and 335 (Heartless). Each figure has high attention to detail as well as surface sculpting and parts separation on the clothes.

Packaging for each figure will be like the distinct packaging design for most Funko Pop! figures. At the front is a plastic window that will show the figure. A window on the right side of the box will show a side view of the collectible. The box art is the same one used for the official product photo.
