And yes, that is a Funko keychain you’re looking at. Alita looks as adorable as she does ferocious suited up in her Motorball gear.
For those counting down the days until Alita: Battle Angel drops, the Blu-ray and DVD will go live on July 23. Digital editions of the film will be available starting July 9, and this Walmart exclusive will include a code as well.
Not only will this special bundle include a Motorball gift set, but the bundle will house a whole slew of special features. A feature called Alita’s World will take audiences deep into the film’s universe and use motion comics to explain parts of its heroine’s past. From The Fall to Iron City, fans will get an impromptu history lesson, and other special features will get a spotlight too.
For instance, From Manga to Screen will explain how Yukito Kishiro’s beloved manga was adapted into live-action, and other features will specifically explore everything from Motorball to Iron City and more.
