First 4 Figures Zero & Black Zero Statues Now Available to Pre-Order


First 4 Figures' long-awaited Zero statue is finally coming to fruition. After nearly ten years of on-again, off-again development, Mega Man X fans can finally place a pre-order. Have a look at the eight different SKUs:

Yeeeah. It's a lot to take in. But the tl;dr here, Exclusive Editions feature "premium" paint jobs, additional LED effects, numbered display bases and certificates of authenticity. Definitive Editions include all of the above plus interchangeable Z-Busters and more intricately-detailed display bases (such as the addition of Sigma's scythe). 

Whichever version you choose, you're getting a nice statue here. Just, you know, try not to break the bank. We've got some 35th anniversary things on the burner. You might want to set some Zenny aside...

  1. Hard pass, these statues are always way too expensive. My $150 Rockman EXE Bass v Megaman statue looks better than this.

    1. I got that statue too and I agree, it's so cool!

  2. Yeah, and that Megahouse EXE vs. Bass statue is PVC. I'm so tired of polystone resin, and refuse to buy things made from it. PVC is superior in basically every way; it's lighter, cheaper, easier to ship, more durable, and captures finer details.

    F4F could offer these for half the price, or even less, if they made better material choices and weren't just flat-out greedy.

  3. Hmmm... Is buying this going to increase the chances of an Iris statue?

    1. For this line specifically?
      I doubt it. We're talking really expensive things here, they probably won't get to anything more niche than X/Zero.

    2. No, which is fair enough since Iris is an extremely niche side character that has barely any appearances in official canon and is now relegated as the thirst quenching "female" presence for an equally niche demographic.
      Colonal has more of a chance I would say, due to him being a major playable character in the EXE main canon, which probably brought some level of awareness to his X counterpart but he doesn't have a chance.

    3. If you ask me, I could make the argument that Axl is deserving of his own statue in spite of the fewer appearances he has compared to X/Zero: Even though he has a mixed reaction in his debut, he has garnered a significant amount of fans that might (just might) have them consider it. I will, however, admit that anyone else wouldn't have enough interest for people to buy statues of... except for Sigma.
