Was just about to say that. But I think the one in that story looked a hell of a lot creepier. Well, I guess it was time to get around to it at some point.

So I wasn't the only one who immediately thought of 20th Century Boys.

Having never read 20th Century Boys (a shame, I'm well aware), I'll just say it looks like a boss out of a Shin Megami Tensei game.

No, it looks like one of the Personas, but you have to get up to about Level 35 to fuse that one.

Just reminds me of the old Godzilla style movies from the 1960s & 1970s. They must really like that art tower to go with such a effort making it into a giant robot defender toy with animated movie sequence to go along with it.
