Remember this? In case you’re not up on this particularly bit of Japanese meme-ery, we’ll let you read Heat’s explanation of it from last year, which you can find here. Don’t worry, we’ll wait. All done? Great! So as it happens, Rockman X manga artist Yoshihiro Iwamoto has once more continued this little tradition of […]

Lovable ol’ Ucchy-san from Rockman Unity has an update concerning the latest Rockman albums we’ve become inundated with. Not much new if you’ve been following TMMN like a responsible Mega Man fan, but a couple points of interest are present. First and foremost, the completely and stupidly sweet cover to WE ARE ROCK-MEN! 2 as […]

Click to enlarge. That’s right, this auction for a third-series Rockman X3 “Factory Figure D” set, said to be a rare item by the seller, is available for the next day and a half for a starting bid of $700 (plus $15 for shipping if you win). It is an interesting find, brought to our […]

Click to enlarge. We haven’t taken an exact tally, but according to Kotaku, this is one fan’s collection of every (physically released) Mega Man game, all together at once. Well, Rockman, technically; we don’t see anything with the Western version of the brand in the pile. Heck, there are even what appear to be some […]

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 […]

Last week we posted on some talk that Bandai had Zero Type 2 at the ready for the May releases in Japan. I doubt anyone had a reason to doubt it, but nevertheless it’s really happening. And here is a sweet, sweet promotional image just to show you they mean business. No details are known […]

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 […]

Well folks, are you ready for some 2012 festivities? Let’s kick it off, it’s time for a new contest! Our latest offering is the already super-rare D-Arts Rockman X “Comic Ver.” figure! This figure was sold in limited numbers at the Tamashii Nations 2011 event int Tokyo, but now it can only be picked up […]

CHRISTMAAAAAAAS!!  HYAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAAA- Bit from Mega Man X3 may not seem like he has anything to do with Christmas, but fans of the Rockman X manga by Yoshihiro Iwamoto ought to know differently. An image that has become a meme among Rockman fans is the above frame of Bit, looking rather psychotic and screaming “MERRY CHRISTMAS!!” […]

In a continuing case of what’s old is new again, Famitsu APP has reported that the SNES classic Rockman X is coming to iPhone later this month. However, this isn’t just a simple port. The game will feature new graphics, giving a “hand drawn” look to the original sprites. Additionally, on top of the original […]

Tamashii Nation 2011 has come and gone, and those who were able to make it to the event and pick up an Iwamoto-styled D-Arts Rockman X are already starting to show off their posing prowess. With a stand and some effect parts, you can recreate some pretty cool scenes from the manga! And don’t forget, […]

Heat Man just passed along to us an item of interest off of the Japanese Rockman Unity blog. There, it is revealed that the popular debut* of the Rockman X series on the Sony PlayStation and SEGA Saturn, Rockman X4, will be coming to the Docomo and AU cell phone services in Japan. IF you […]
