Funko is adding four new Mega Man figures to its lineup: X, Zero, Proto Man, and Dr. Wily. The wave pulls from both the classic and X series, with Wily making for an especially fitting addition alongside our heroes. His new figure is a pretty big glow-up from the original version released way back when. Proto Man's upgrade isn't too shabby either.
The new Pops are set to go up for pre-order on Wednesday, May 27 at 9:00 AM PT. Pricing, retailers, and release timing haven’t been announced yet, but we’ll keep you posted as those details come in.

The wily is the best one. Provided people still collect funko
ReplyDeletethey put the protobuster on his right arm
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, it’s based on the Complete Works 5 art which also has the Buster on the wrong arm.
DeleteAren't the busters technically on both hands anyway?
DeleteStarting with MM7, most likely (Proto Man has two normal arms for the first time in this game).
DeleteBefore that though, Proto Man always had a buster out -both in-game and in artwork- which was consistently shown on his left arm. It’s the same as whether you’d consider other single-buster robot masters like Flash Man to have variable or permanent busters.
Why are the colors so de-saturated? They look kinda lifeless (even more lifeless than the average Funko Pop).
ReplyDeleteI’m surprised funko pops are still a thing. Now no one can convince me Proto Man isn’t popular.
ReplyDeleteThe ever present creepy black eyes always bothered me.
ReplyDeleteThey're coming to steal your soul!
DeleteThe lack of those eyes is why the Blues figure works for me.
DeleteI'll probably get Wily too because of the saucer, and we just don't have many Wily figures.
Protoman eyes being hidden makes him looks kinda good, but he still have the cube head.
DeleteWily ends up being better looking than most POP since the hair, moustache and facial feature ironically makes him look less weird.
I wish they did sigma instead of another protoman
ReplyDeleteSigma was released along with Ultron for MvC:I.
DeleteI don't collect Funko Pops, but this is good news for those who do. I'm surprised we got X and Zero again, especially almost a decade after MVCI.
ReplyDeleteWily and Protoman make sense with the upcoming release of DO, but X and Zero are making me high on the copium. Lol
