Plot Any Course to Victory with the Mega Map II T-Shirt

Interested in finding a new Mega Man t-shirt for your wardrobe, but feel that most offerings out there lack subtlety? After all, many tend to feature large pixel art graphics or logos for the brand, which makes some people feel like walking billboards. If this sounds like your feelings on the subject, then perhaps we […]

Kotobukiya Reveals Zero as Next Model Kit

After Blues came out, it seemed uncertain what Kotobukiya would tackle next, if anything at all. But the Winter 2011 Wonder Festival has an unexpected answer. Kotobukiya’s next model kit foray will be Zero. And that is, specifically, Zero of the Mega Man Zero variety. Price and release date info will be forthcoming (a general […]

Mega Man 9 Remix Project Not Dead Afterall

It’s hard to believe it has been a whole year since we last covered the Mega Man 9 remix project. Many had speculated that the project must be dead by this point. But project manager k-wix says otherwise: Just wanted to let you know that the project has NOT been abandoned/forgotten. I said that I […]

Mega Man Olympics, FINAL STAGE!!!!!!!!

We’ve come a long way, and Ucchy-san and jgonzo finally reach the final stage of the Mega Man Olympics. In this climactic challenge, both must chug three ice cold E-Tank drinks. Considering they just got done wolfing down jalapenos, this is probably going to be rough. But it’s all in the name of Mega Man, […]

MML3 Devroom Event 5: The Easter Egg

Seems a little soon for this one. Easter isn’t for a couple more months yet. Ah well, this Devroom event is for users to submit some kind of hidden trick or gag that will appear in Mega Man Legends 3. This is something like how in the original Mega Man Legends, where in Apple Market […]

Leviathan Garage Kit to Grace Wonder Fest 2011

Last year garage kit group Yama Tai Koku brought us Harpuia and Phantom, and coming next week at Japan’s Winter 2011 Wonder Festival, Leviathan will go on sale too. For the uninitiated (which admittedly includes me too), these garage kits are a fan labor of love, and sell exclusively through events like Wonder Festival. They […]

Proto on Proto: A Kotobukiya Figure Review

As longtime fans know, for many years, Bandai’s Rockman 8 Ironbuster Blues model kit long stood as perhaps the best example of an action figure or model kit based on the prototypical older brother of the Blue Bomber. But more recently, a company by the name of Kotobukiya has gotten into the model kit game […]

Mega Man Universe Undergoing Great Changes

There’s been speculation abounds concerning the game’s fate, but we finally have an official word on Universe’s status. Over at Ask Capcom, Christian Svensson has this to say: “Unfortunately, […]

Mega Man Drawn in 60 Seconds

Last week I tweeted about a little challenge on 4 color rebellion. Following a trial of having people draw Sonic the Hedgehog blindly, Josh put out call for people to try drawing Mega Man in 60 seconds. Did any of you rise to the challenge? At any rate, here are some of the results. They’re […]
