King of Fire Pokémon in Action Figure Form

The king of fire Pokémon is getting his own flexible action figure, courtesy of Bandai's D-Arts.

Alongside fellow first-generation star Mewtwo, this particular Charizard has multiple points of articulation - including his neck, arms and jawline to pose this beast in an array of different positions - including a triumphant roar, scorching flame and all.

The figure will hit stores this April for 3,900 Yen (£28/$44), time to save those import-pennies!

What do you think of Charizard's return to the Pokémon spotlight?
