More Images of X-Plus Toys Gigantic Zero Figure


At 12-inches (33cm), Zero stands just a bit taller than Roll but smaller than X. Even so, the final figure is looking spiffy...

'Did You Know Gaming?' Tackles Mega Man Legends


I'd wager a good few of you will learn something new from Did You Know Gaming's recent Mega Man Legends feature. Here, the crew looks at some of the more obscure MML factoids; for example, did you know the story originally featured a 4-sided love triangle? (err, love square?). Interesting stuff, especially if you're new to the series.

Speaking personally, I'm honored to be featured in this episode!

We're Getting Mega Man Sunglasses. Sunglasses.


I'll let the Entertainment Earth product description speak for itself: "Become the Blue Bomber with these Mega Man Helmet Sun-Staches! Save the day with these fantastic glasses featuring the iconic helmet of Mega Man. Join the fight against Dr. Wily with these Mega Man Helmet Sun-Staches."

I don't know what's worse: the fact these will soon exist OR the criminally missed opportunity for Proto Man shades. C'mon, people.

Second Mega Man Legacy Collection Steam Patch Live


Heads up: a second but very small patch for Mega Man Legacy Collection went live on Steam yesterday. According to the change log, it fixes "an issue which caused text and some textures to render as solid blocks of color." This minor annoyance is not an issue on home consoles, so no worries there.

Hopefully Capcom will roll out similar fixes over time for some of the other prevalent issues on PC. While the March update was a welcome addition, many users continue to cite performance issues.

Thanks, Saikyo!

Mega Man Pop! Vinyl Figures Listing Leaked


I'm surprised it's actually taken this long but it's happening: a Pop! Vinyl Mega Man line is in the works. The above listing recently appeared in GameStop's catalog, well ahead of any official announcement from Funko or Capcom.

At least six figures will make up the line: Mega Man, Proto Man, Rush, Dr. Wily and two GameStop exclusive color variants, Mega Man Fire Storm and Mega Man Ice Slasher. The pair will be based off of Fire Man and Ice Man's weapon colors, respectively.

Hopefully we're not too far off from seeing what these little guys look like. Stay tuned!
