The Mega Man Network Turns Ten

After ten years, The Mega Man Network finally turns ten. Okay, so it’s clear that killing Obvious Man and stealing his power has done little to make me a better writer. Let’s try this again… TMMN Staff

Kotobukiya Roll Figure Now in Color, Ready for Pre-order

Here is a flyer showing off Kotobukiya’s Roll figure for the first time in color. The figure is slated for a December release, and will cost ¥3,150 (roughly $36.74 US), which amazingly is not much more than Rockman will go for in September.

The Mystery of the Sour Servbot

The image above, featured on Capcom Unity, is described only as a “Sour Servbot.” Nothing more is given regarding what it is, except “We like teasing things here on Unity. Sometimes we’re more obvious about what we’re teasing than others… That said, enjoy!” Any guesses? TMMN Staff

Bond Man: The Phantom Robot Master

Been a while since we presented any Mega Man mysteries for you, but we have a neat new one today! I’ll admit, however, that this is a more open-and-shut case than our previous features of the Capcom Hand and Wily’s Mystery Pipe. But this story is still an interesting one, because it’s about a Robot […]

Amazing Robot Master Collage is Amazing

I’ve seen a number of robot master collages over time, but this one is truly impressive (not to mention up to date). This is by Kinniku, who’s work depicted various characters from other Mega Man games in Mega Man Powered Up style have received a bit of attention. This piece was drawn to promote the […]

Scott Pilgrim’s Creator on “Being” Mega Man

The worst thing about making this post is that I know some of you are probably going to read into this the wrong way or make a big deal about it. Nonetheless, here we go. TMMN Staff

A Little Mega Man Talk with Inafune

Anime News Network has an interview with Keiji Inafune up, and while the majority of the discussion concerns Dead Rising 2, they did take the time to ask him some Mega Man related questions: Will you make movies about any other CAPCOM games? Like a live-action Mega Man? Inafune: Mega Man would make a good movie, but […]

Kirby Krackle Says “Take It From Me”

The nerd rock band duo known as Kirby Krackle contacted us earlier to spread the word of their latest music video release, a Mega Man-inspired song known as “Take It From Me” (which we brought you word of last month). Admittedly, it’s not a fully-animated video, but rather a quick animation set to the song […]

Scott Pilgrim to Mega Man: “Now I’ve Got Your Schtick!”

So, there is this comic book character some of you may have heard of. His name is Scott Pilgrim, and he’s the titular star of a series of six manga-esque graphic novels which seem to have sprung up overnight. What’s more, there is apparently a movie which has appeared out of nowhere, scheduled to be […]
