A few months ago, Seth Kearsley, director and storyboard artist for the unreleased Kingdom Hearts TV show, released storyboards for the show. Now it seems like the Kingdom Hearts TV show might have another lease on life. Following an interview with Mike Mixtape last week, Kearsley has offered an update on the possibility of doing another Kingdom Hearts show on his twitter: Previously Kearsley had been in talks with his former boss to release the pilot episode of the unreleased series (which is what the first tweet references). What do you guys think about this? Do you want a Kingdom Hearts TV show?

Question Time with.. GHOST A couple of guidelines before you begin.. 1 - Keep it within the rules of the forum, nothing over PG-13. This is still KHV, which means that you must not use this thread as an excuse to berate or harass the Question Time participant. That being said... 2 - ...The Question Time participant does not have to answer all of the questions. 3 - The Question Time participant must maintain some level of activity within this thread. Don't leave all of your questions unanswered. You're in the spotlight, baby, so shine! 4 - Give the Question Time participant some time to answer, and let others have a chance to ask. Remember that they are in the spotlight for at least one week, so do not feel the need to barrage them with a lengthy list of questions all at once. And now that you have read the rules, you may ask away!~ @Ghost

View attachment 46366 A new Kingdom Hearts picture by Tetsuya Nomura is apparently on display in a shop in Japan. This artwork features Sora and Roxas and looks super cool. Thanks to Yurinahp for posting it on Twitter.
It's always awesome to see when voice actors of the series are Kingdom Hearts fans... and it looks like the voice actor of Young Xehanort, Ben Diskin, is as well! Every Sunday in February, he and a few others (including youtuber Kirbopher) will be streaming Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance. The first episode is linked above, the second can also be found on that same channel, so be sure to check the videos out if you're interested or maybe even join in on their stream in the future! Thanks to @Explode for letting us know about this!

Today, Funko officially announced the release dates of ALL of their upcoming Kingdom Hearts Funko Pops. While not all of this is new news, some of this is. View attachment 46339 View attachment 46340 View attachment 46341 First of all, we finally have release dates for the Kingdom Hearts Funko Keychains of King Mickey, Donald, and Goofy, March 2017. We also found out about that Walmart will be receiving an exclusive Funko Pop, Black and White Pete. This Funko joins the other two exclusives, Royal Guard Goofy (Gamestop) and Royal Guard Donald (Hot Topic). View attachment 46338 Strangely enough, Funko lists the rest of the Pops figures as to be released in April--which contradicts reports (and a Gamestop employee that I spoke to when I preordered a few of the Pops) from Gamestop that they will be coming out in March-- March 15th was the exact release date I, personally was told. Could Gamestop be receiving the Pop figures before anywhere else? While we don't have any more information about the release date discrepancies, we'll be sure to let you know when there are any updates on the Funko Pop figures. Do you guys plan on picking any of these up? Let us know in the comments down below!
View attachment 46330 View attachment 46334 With Kingdom Hearts 2.8 released worldwide and Kingdom Hearts 3 in the works, it's no surprise that Square Enix will be releasing some new figures. The first of these figures (and the one we have the most information about) is a new Kingdom Hearts 3 Bring Arts Sora figure. This figure is available from both the Japanese Square Enix store and Japanese website, Ami Ami. The figure costs $61 (6,999Yen) from the Square Enix store and $45 ( 5,180 Yen) from Ami Ami . For Noth American audiences, the figure will be available in August 2017 for $69.99 from the North American Square Enix site. The figure includes Sora's new keyblade, often seen in most promo art, his blasters, and other interchangeable parts. View attachment 46332 View attachment 46330 View attachment 46331 View attachment 46327 View attachment 46326 View attachment 46328 The second figure is an (in my opinion) long awaited figure. To celebrate the release of Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, an Aqua Play Arts Kai figure is set to be release, according to the Square Enix Products Facebook page. View attachment 46333 View attachment 46334 View attachment 46335 This figure will be on display the Nuremberg Toy Fair in Germany from February 1st to February 6th. No other information about this figure is available yet, but we'll be sure to let you know when it does!
