It was no surprise that almost every theater goer leaving Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy had become enamored with baby Groot, who shows up for 43 seconds in the credits, and many fans hoped to own a similar figure someday soon.
Well, it looks like the wait won't be much longer as Mashable has revealed that an officially licensed dancing baby Groot, manufactured by Marvel Entertaiment and KIDdesigns, will be arriving in stores just in time for Christmas. The dancing figure will cost about $14.99 and play an electronic version of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" from a built-in speaker.
Check him out in action below!
From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, comes a new team--the Guardians of the Galaxy. An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits--Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon; Groot, a tree-like humanoid; the deadly and enigmatic Gamora; and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand--with the galaxy's fate in the balance.
