Peeking at the Rockcan’s Special Bonuses and Curiosities

The impressive but pricy “Rockcan” soundtrack collection comes out next week, and Rockman Unity has one more promotional push for the set. This comes with the announcement of four special anniversary prints done by Capcom staff artists. Only four people who preorder the Rockcan by the 18th will be chosen randomly to win one of these illustrations. As you can see they’re not mere copies or anything – they look like the real deal straight off the drawing board, and they’re nice a large.
Furthermore, Ucchy’s article also gives a brief glimpse of the color booklet that comes with the soundtrack. Aside from a nice collage of Mega Man artwork from the first to tenth titles, the credits page is also shown with some interesting entries. Ippo Yamada is present, no doubt he helped with refining the tracks. Hitoshi Ariga is also listed, so perhaps we can expect some special artwork. There’s even a spot that’s mysteriously blurred out. But what I find most interesting is the “ROCKMAN series Research & Development Staff” under special thanks. Can’t say I was aware of such a group. I can only wonder what they’re up to…

You can check out more amusing photos on Ucchy’s post. Also, if you have the hefty sum needed and no way to order from e-Capcom, you can still pick up a can from CD Japan.
