Retro Roto Re-Releases Now Available

Largely out of stock for a couple years now, Jazeware's line of six-inch Retro Roto Mega Man figures are now returning to retail. These aren't new figures, mind you, but re-releases of the original line. However, unlike the original releases, the Build-a-Bot pieces used to create the "Full Charge" Mega Man figure are no longer included. Aside from slightly different packaging design, these are generally the same figures.

Where to buy? According to a few readers, the re-released versions have been sighted in-store at Toys R Us, Walgreens and CVS. Online retailers carrying the re-releases include GMKWorld, CmdStore and Big Bad ToyStore. There might be other stores, so shop around.

If you missed out on the figures the first time around, these are definitely for you. Thanks to XHunter, John, RollChan and Brad for the tip(s).

  1. Not these again. More junk. Lame! Jazwares give it up, you can't create any good Mega Man figures. The newest Mega Man figure from Kotobukiya coming out beats all of figures of your junk Mega Man line.

  2. I'm pretty sure that something like this would make a nice collector's item.

  3. Toys R Us? As much as I would love to get my hands on these, Canada probably wouldn't stalk them...

    Are you serious? Sir, these figures are solid, well rounded and nicely painted and articulated. They are sturdy, durable and make cute, let firm display pieces. These are Jazwares greatest line of MegaMan figures yet and they can only get better and better. I would welcome a complete set of all Robot Masters if I could, but for now I await wave 2 with eager, open arms. Hopefully that contains the already shown, Wood Man/Snake Man/ Ice Man/Heat Man/Dr. Wily. Wouldnt mind that awesome prototype Knight Man either. Or a Bass. =D
