Raskulls ... now in toy form!

Who's this little guy? Why, this is King, one of the characters from Halfbrick's upcoming XBLA game Raskulls. The game's main character has taken the day off from kinging to appear as a rather adorable little figure, and Destructoid is the lucky outlet to get its hands on the little blighter.

This particular Raskulls figure is one of a handful of early models, but Halfbrick tells me that plans are in place to create a newer and more readily available version in future. If the game sells well, there's a good chance that Raskulls merchandise could be quite a readily available thing. The characters are incredibly likable and have "mascot" written all over them, so I could easily see more of these figures coming.

Raskulls is set to be one of Xbox Live Arcade's best party games when it releases next year, and having played it, I can tell you it's a bloody good laugh. We have exclusive video coverage of the game coming very soon, and I think you would do very well to check it out, so stay tuned to Destructoid for more on that.

Trust me when I say that Raskulls is a game that Destructoid readers will want to keep an eye on.
