Over on 1UP’s Retronauts blog, Jeremy Parish has taken a look at the most recent efforts from both the East and the West in their attempts to recreate the Blue Bomber in a tangible plastic form. TMMN Staff

We’ve reported for a while now on Kotobukiya’s upcoming fantastic, fully poseable 1/10 scale Rockman figure. The modeling of the figure has been looking top notch, but something about it still seemed a bit glum. Perhaps it was all that prototype gray that was going on. But that’s no longer an issue, as a full […]

Click to enlarge. We just wanted to take a moment to congratulate Team MMN, which consists of our Fan Art Coordinator and Oekaki Mom Tabby and AWD!, for placing fourth in North America in Capcom’s Mega Man 10 Fan Art Collaboration contest. In addition to being highlighted on Capcom Unity, their work was appraised by […]

Back in February we reported an announcement from Japan’s Wonderfest that Kotobukiya, a maker of highly detailed and poseable plastic figures, would be creating a Rockman figure. A Kotobukiya showcasing has now revealed a prototype of the figure, which is a 1/10 scale model. This prototype is unpainted but you can already observe the high […]

While these are still unpainted prototypes of the figures, with this view you can get a much greater look at the detail these figures will possess. The source of this image, Amiami, also has the box set of 12 figures for preorder, currently with a 25% discount at ¥5,720 (roughly 62.19 US). A somewhat better […]

While we’re about to get the original Rockman Megamix here in North America (known as Mega Man Megamix of course), you have to remember that Japan is already up to Rockman Gigamix. And in fact, the second volume is coming out in Japan this month on the 27th for ¥1,200 (roughly $13.40 US). If you’ll […]

Kotobukiya, a Japanese producer of model kits and action figures, appears to be planning the release of a Rockman action figure. At this weekend’s Wonderfest 2010 event in Japan, Kotobukiya exhibited a Combat-san figure in front of a poster teasing a new figure release with Rockman’s silhouette (image below). Truth be told I don’t really […]

It looks like Japan just keeps getting more neat Rockman goods. While the Kubrick figures will be coming out this month in Japan, Bandai is also preparing a total of 11 “Super Model Spirit” figures, measuring 6~10cm, of various characters in the Rockman franchise. These include: Rockman with Metall A (classic series) Rockman with Metall […]

An interesting and pretty rare item has hit the ol’ Yahoo! Auctions: a copper-finished metal statue of Classic-styled Rockman: As one might remember, only about 200 or so of the 3.5 inch, 3.1 ounce statues were produced for the 20th anniversary of Rockman and sold through the Japanese e-Capcom store. As of this writing, the […]

For those who have been eagerly awaiting the Blue Bomber in a plastic form of any sort, you will be pleased to know that at long last, the Jazwares Urban Vinyl (aka “JUVI”) figures of Mega Man and Proto Man are now available at Toys R Us. They cost $9.99 a pop, and you can […]

There is usually no shortage of questions that members of the Mega Man fan community would love to ask Capcom mastermind Keiji Inafune. The opportunity to actually ask those questions, on the other hand, tend to be in rather short supply. Fortunately, such an opportunity is just around the corner. The Capcom*Unity invites you to […]

Japanese gamers will be gaining additional opportunities to enjoy Rockman on their PSPs the 26th of this month. Rockman Rockman, Irregular Hunter X and the ports of PS1 classics Rockman DASH and Rockman DASH 2 will be available to download onto their PSPs and PSP Gos from the PlayStation Store at ¥1,500 a pop (roughly […]
