Announcement Coming Soon
Published on 07 July 2023 by Denis
A new wave of POP 2023 for Saint Seiya with the announcement of four new figurines featuring the Knights of the Zodiac. Reflecting the universe where mythology and cosmic energy meet, the Saint Seiya POP set is the image of the animated series!
After offering POPs of the five Bronze Knights, followed by the Sagittarius Knight figurine, Funko now turns its attention to other astrological signs and Golden Knights:
- Libra Shiryu
- Aquarius Hyoga
- Virgo Shun
- Leo Ikki
The main plot focuses on five Bronze Knights: Pegasus Seiya, Dragon Shiryu, Cygnus Hyoga, Andromeda Shun and Phoenix Ikki. Guided by their devotion to the goddess Athena, they battle the forces of evil to defend justice and peace in the world. Each Knight possesses unique fighting techniques and special armors that evolve as they progress.
Beyond its entertaining aspect, The Knights of the Zodiac conveys positive values such as friendship, courage, loyalty and sacrifice. Each Knight is driven by a deep desire to protect the innocent and defend justice, making them inspiring heroes for many fans.
By transporting us directly into the 90s, Saint Seiya POPs are highly successful and particularly artistic. And it's a safe bet that Funko will complete the set with the last missing Golden Knights, perhaps even offering POPs of the Silver Knights or the Gods of Olympus!
