I do know who Astro Boy is and I know he's really big as a manga/anime character in Japan, but the problem is, that's just in Japan, and he's knot really as well-known in the Western Hemisphere, which is where the majority of the audience is, and in terms of that, I can only really imagine Ash and Yugi being used, Yugi only if they save King Tut for him. xP I do think Astro Boy is worthy, believe me, as he's huge as an anime character, but I don't think he'd be known to the majority of ERB fans or even ERB themselves, which is another problem with some anime characters like Sailor Moon.

Plus, there's the fact that properly portraying a robot kid would probably be exceedingly difficult.
