As reported previously, the first volume of Hitoshi Ariga’s Mega Man Gigamix is now available from UDON Entertainment. What’s more, our previous report also included a few preview pages, including one showing off a rather striking image of Break Man, the alter-ego of everyone’s favorite scarf-wearing ‘bot, Proto Man. And as we’ve seen recently, Dr. […]

X series Zero got his reveal earlier this week, but don’t forget that Zero series Zero is in the works at Kotobukiya. The prototype model kit is presently being shown off at an in-store event. The prototype is still uncolored, but now we can see it various angles as well as its accessories, which look […]

Kotobukiya is prepping another Rockman themed in-store event, the Spring Rock 2011 exhibition, on April 29th. They’ll be selling the usual assort of Rockman model kits and goods, including a limited supply of Mega Man branded kits and badges, for whatever strange reason. I think the big pull, however, will be a display of the […]

A little ways back we first learned that Kotobukiya would be tackling Rockman Zero in their next model kit foray. And now a magazine scan gives us our first look at the uncolored prototype. Unfortunately no other details are given concerning accessories or the like, but with this coming out we should hear new details […]

Here is an incredible stop motion animation by Counter656 Productions featuring Kotobukiya’s Rockman model kit. I don’t know what’s going on when Rockman finds himself battling against Gundams and Transformers, but it’s pretty dang cool. And the action runs over a good five minutes, so you know a lot of work went into this. Thanks, […]

It’s been six months of the Megacast, can you believe it? Half a year! They said it wouldn’t last. I said it wouldn’t last! But here we are. In this very serendipitous episode, the Megacast crew (sans Andy) welcome special guest, UDON Entertainment’s managing editor, Matt Moylan. Matt gives us the lowdown about various upcoming […]

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 […]

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 […]

Funny that Valentine’s Day should land within one of the coldest months in the year. But if it’s help warming your spirit you need, a fun little contest might just do the trick. It’s been a while, but Tabby is taking helm at the festivities once again with a new fan art contest! And I […]

Hey folks! I’m sorry it’s taken this long to announce the results of our New Year’s themed Kotobukiya Roll model kit contest. I’m sure some of you have been a little anxious! We got an amazing number of responses, over 250! It was a pretty simple contest, but that’s probably the biggest response we’ve ever […]

Previously we reported that Kotobukiya would have a couple of Mega Man themed mugs on sale at their in store event this Friday, but it was uncertain if they’d be going on regular sale. Well, it appears the mugs will be hitting the e-Capcom store on February 28th, for ¥1,050 a piece (roughly $12.79 US). […]
