I haven't read much in the way of news for Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep so I actually forgot about the series. I'm sure the die hard Kingdom Hearts fan hasn't. But if you are like me and did forget, Kotobukiya is here to remind you about the series.

Kotobukiya has three new Play Arts releases now available for pre-order. From the first Kingdom Hearts comes Cloud decked out in his Cloud x Vincent love child outfit. It's a pretty decent figure though he looks uncomfortable with that cape on if looked at from the wrong angle. Pre-order at Hobby Search and AmiAmi.

The other two releases are from Kingdom Hearts II. First up is Christmas Town Sora equipped with his awesome candy cane keyblade that captures the style of Tim Burton perfectly. Pre-order at Hobby Search and AmiAmi. The other is the amazing bad ass, King Mickey. I am definitely picking him up as I know I'll find him available at my next convention in May. Pre-order at Hobby Search and AmiAmi.

All figures will be released in April, 2010 and are retailing for 3,800 yen. Odd that the Japanese stores are now taking pre-orders when Big Bad Toy Store listed them just a couple of weeks ago.
