Kotobukiya to Announce Plans for Future Rockman EXE & Rockman X Kits On Monday

Talk about good timing. Yesterday we gave you the reassurance that Kotobukiya's Rockman EXE model kit line was still in development. And a few hours later, Kotobukiya took to social media to announce the third installment of their Rockman-centric model kit live talk show! 

Find all the details after the break!



Rockman Plastic Model Talk Live Ver.3 will be live on Monday, 25th at 20:00 JST (4:00 AM PDT - 7:00 AM EDT - 13:00 CET).

The one-hour program will be presented by Bachi (Shohei Chiba) [Kotobukiya Rockman X Series Planner]. It will deliver the latest news from Kotobukiya's Rockman X model kit line which has been dormant since the release of the Second Armor model kit from December 2021. Although Kotobukiya spent the last few months re-releasing older kits, they previously informed us that they were working on a new kit back in January.

When it comes to the Rockman EXE line, we can expect them to be reintroduced with their final paint job along with other info. They were unveiled on November 28, 2020 and it's about time we get some news if you ask me!

There's not much more to say until Monday. But perhaps there's a little hint here? The fact they are using artwork of X from Rockman X5 in the YouTube thumbnail could be a hint that the Falcon Armor or the Gaea Armor are next in line. What do you think? Let us know in the comments!

If you don't have the chance to watch the program live, come back on Monday for a full recap!

  1. I was gonna point out the X5 art. Who knows...if they do Ultimate Armor, that's instantly a good handful of recolors.

    Speaking of, also predicting a Second Armor recolor. C'mon Sonic Slicer!

    Can't wait to see the exe kits in all their glory. Here's hoping for the best!

    1. I'm thinking it'll have a speed burner recolor, just so you can use second armor with rising flame armorless X, unless we also end up getting a sonic slicer armorless X

    2. IF they do the Ultimate Armor, the recolor will be Legacy Collection (which honestly is my fav and makes the most sense). Calling that now.

      Falcon Armor is the safe bet. Either that or X1 armor.

  2. I hope that they annonce more characters from the x series like sigma, axl, alia, signas, Douglas, etc

    1. Still hoping they'll do a poseable Sigma rather than have us stuck with that SD figurine and the SHF statue.

  3. Remember when they considered other characters? Still hoping for a curveball.

    1. I remember when they considered making new Mega Man games.

    2. When did Kotobukiya consider this?
