is there anything that resembles astro boy out there?
Maybe a kit for hiro. but the hair is a pretty unique look about it.

    Excellent products. They give the look of a jointed doll for any Genesis or Genesis 2 Female figure and you can then control the rest of the character's appearance.

    If you're looking for something specific to that exact picture, maybe get the Genesis version and combine it with one of the male Genesis characters based upon Japanese animation aesthetics.

    wow, I had no idea the doll even existed! amazing!

    The next issue would be the hair helmet. That seemed to be pretty distinctive.

    I don't know of anything that's terribly close to the Astro Boy hair (aside from RoboGrrl mentioned above). One of the hair options in Sadie and Sam Hairstylz is reminiscent, but with a number of small spikes rather than the one big one. It might work if you're trying to make an Astro Boy-esque character, but probably not ideal for Astro Boy fan art.

    For the overall character, I'd probably go with Hiro 5 as a starting point...maybe even dial in some of Hitomi's head.
