The 2013 Winter Wonder Festival is taking place in Japan this weekend. The Rockman offerings seem a little sparse this time around, compared to last year’s HOBBY ROCK bonanza. However, once the event kicks off, even more custom and homebrew kits may surface. For now, you can take a look at what we’ve managed to […]

Gotta keep that gratitude train going! Got many more prizes to give away! This time we’ll have THREE winners! And what we have to offer is a little bit interesting. Please, it’s important you read this post carefully! We are giving away three Elec Man resin kits by Planeswalker. These were purchased earlier this year […]

The last time we saw X’s manga-nificent gal-pal Merti/Marti/whatever, she was looking a little… well, barren. At least, insofar as her attire was concerned. And truth be told, not much has changed… but, that isn’t to say nothing has changed. Courtesy of Auto, we have a new pic (click to enlarge) of the Reploid-mermaid-pirate-Saint Seiya […]

Hobby Rock is highlighting a lot of the fan-made Rockman models and figures to be showcased at the upcoming Wonder Festival, but they’re far from the only ones who will have wares to show off. A few that I’ve taken a real shine to lately are the above garage figurines of Elec Man, Tornado Man, […]

H’ooooooh man. We’re not gonna need to install an age gate on this site are we? Here is the basic color cast of Yama Tai Koku’s Merti garage kit, commissioned by Rockman X manga writer Yoshihiro Iwamoto himself. If you could attend Wonder Fest next month and purchase the kit, this is essentially what you’d […]

For you fans of awesome Rockman garage kits and figures you’ll probably never be able to buy, things got a lot easier to keep track of with the opening of Hobby Rock. This site lists the various Rockman kits planned to be at the Winter 2012 Wonder Festival, on February 12th, with product pics and […]

Hey X, still have a reason to act all emo and depressed? A couple months back we reported on the announcement of a garage kit in the works for the original Rockman X manga character Merti. And not just any garage kit, but one officially endorsed by series author Yoshihiro Iwamoto. Mr. Iwamoto has been […]

Here’s a real interesting one for you figure and model fans. Perhaps you’re familiar with Merti, an original character in Yoshihiro Iwamoto’s Rockman X manga series. I never really thought she looked like much of a Rockman-esque character, but then I don’t see a lot of guys complaining… Today Iwamoto put up a teaser page […]

Some time ago we clued you in on a new Rockman garage kit by makers Dimension Diver. It was set to go on sale in August, and that it did this past weekend at the CharaHobby 2011 event. Although Dimension Diver did do a Rockman kit before, this one features improved joints, hair parts for […]

I’ll be honest that I don’t know of many garage kit makers, but that won’t stop me from saying Dimension Diver is one of the best. And their latest project in the works is Rockman. Rockman was one of the first kits they tackled in the past, and you can see it here. The new […]

In my opinion, Yama Tai Koku’s Leviathan would have been Best In Show at the Winter 2011 Wonder Festival, but then it’s not like I even went. But it was far from the only Rockman themed garage kit appearing at the show. Here are a few more, via Tomopop. Check out their gallery to see […]

Just giving an update from our previous post to show off the finished sample of Yama Tai Koku’s finished Leviathan garage kit, and boy, this is a thing of beauty. The full list of features include being completely poseable, having four face plates with different expressions, coming cast with six colors (resin kits are often […]
