Preview HAOYUTOYS Journey To The West 1/6th scale Monkey King 12-inch action figure

Sun Wukong (simplified Chinese: 孙悟空; traditional Chinese: 孫悟空; pinyin: Sūn Wùkōng), also known as the Monkey King is a main character in the classical Chinese epic novel Journey to the West (Chinese: 西遊記; pinyin: Xīyóujì) written by Wu Cheng'en. In the novel, he is a monkey born from a stone who acquires supernatural powers through Taoist practices. After rebelling against heaven and being imprisoned under a mountain by the Buddha, he later accompanies the monk Xuanzang on a journey to retrieve Buddhist sutras from India.

This is HaoYu TOYS (sounds like a greeting: "How U?") upcoming release: ZH002 Journey To The West 1/6th scale Monkey King 12-inch figure which will come with Head sculpt x 2, 12-inch figure Body, costume / outfit consisting of shirt, Pants, Belt, Shawl, Tiger skin, Shoes, Hat, Hand types x 5, Stick / staff, Cloud and figure display stand.

There was also the Very Cool x Coo Model 1/6 scale The Monkey King (Donnie Yen as Sun Wukong) 12-inch figure (posted HERE). Even the Japanese were in on it.
