Double Dose Of Zero Toy News

The Kotobukiya Zero won't be the only figure of the red crusader this year. Apparently, Bandai and Art Asylum are working on two different figures of their very own...


Above, design sheets for an upcoming Zero "Minimate" from Art Asylum. The figure is being produced as part of the company's Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 line, set to release within the year. Every character will be represented in the line, so a Tron figure is expected, too.

Next up..

Rockman Unity's Ucchy-San Tweeted these two photos from Bandai's D-Arts booth, teasing the development of a Zero D-Arts action figure. No surprise here, but it's nice to see things shaping up (via The Mega Man Network).

Rest assured, we'll be hearing more D-Arts Zero news from our pal Adam Newman at Bandai in the new future.

Thanks for the tip, Michael!

  1. I wonder if someone can use the Minimate pic to create a papercraft with exchangeable parts...

  3. I'm glad we'll be getting a Zero Kotobukiya action figure. The Minimate Zero looks pretty neat as do Viewtiful Joe and Dante.

  4. Nice! The X figure looks pretty good, so I'm sure the Zero figure will be awesome too.
    Now then...
    *crosses fingers and hopes for an Axl figure*

  6. O.o...weeeeird looking Zero "Minimate"...

    As for that OBVIOUS Zero action figure from D-Arts, it looks close to the X1 design to me. But, I won't care whether it's gonna be X1 Zero or the X4, X5, X6, X7 or XCM Zero, I'll STILL get it 'cause it's, well, it's f***ing ZERO!!! XD

    ...er, just as long as it's NOT Zero's X8 design...

  7. Wow, come on guys. Who cares if it's Zero. Enough with the bitching. At least we're FINALLY getting some decent Mega Man X series action figures. Those Jazzware ones sucked.

  13. Zero is OVERRATED enough is enough.

  14. Ya guys complain to much.
    Zero and Mega Man 2 will only be truly overrated when Zero becomes a playable character in Mega Man 2.

  15. @Anonymous #7:

    I'm sorry, but that's some flawed logic, right there.

  16. @Axem White:
    Who said it was supposed to be logic? I just put the two "overrateds" together for fun. Put a Pikachu in every stage of the game to make it more overrated, or turn all bosses into Zeroes.

  17. Am I the only person who dislikes the minimates figures? Like, the entire design of them in any series?

  18. @Hypercoyote: Not at all. I don't see the appeal either :/
