Posted on November 12, 2023 by Graphic Policy Team

Backer Beware: Crowdfunding projects are not guaranteed to be delivered and/or delivered when promised. We always recommend to do your research before backing.

Wandering Planet Toys has announced the brand new line sofubi toys based on Fletcher Hanks’ most notorious monsters, The Headless Ones, now available for preorder on Backerkit.

The madman of Golden Age Comics and most twisted comic artist all times, Fletcher Hanks, created “The Headless Ones” villains for his hero Space Smith in the ‘The Thinker,’ first published in Fantastic Comics #4 in March 1940. The Headless Ones, in the service of evil genius “The Thinker”, live on a comet made of pure gold and use their hand-held Ray Projectors.

The first in a series of limited edition, each 8-inch vinyl figure is handcrafted, featuring three different colorways and ray projector for individual purchase or as a collection. In addition, Wandering Planet Toys will have exclusive add-ons available, including a Headless Ones t-shirt and enamel pin, that honors Fletcher Hanks’ famous introduction panel. The all-in bundle gets backers the Army Builder (one of each of the three colorways) plus the exclusive t-shirt (any size) and the pin.

Wandering Planet Toys is excited for the worlds of Japanese-style monster toys to collide with the cosmic monster creations of Fletcher Hanks. Limited quantities of The Headless Ones will be produced and available to ship in early 2024, so join now with a preorder!
