New sentinel mega man pics, thoughts?

>>5609166
Never been a fan of the .exe series but my dick is going to make me buy this.
>4,320円
Coupled with the usual 15-20% discount we'll get at amiami, these things are beginning to look like they're worth it. I was worried they'd be 6000Y or more.
Is there a reason why they have only these parts as the promo image, when in the linked article it shows different faces too?
>>5609166
I wish I fucking liked megaman cause this looks great.
>>5609179
Yeah same. Have never played a Megaman game in my life but that character design is rad af.
>>5609176
Do we have any idea when this will go up for PO?
I'm so fucking glad these aren't usual sentinel prices, I was getting ready to drop 100$ on mega man
>>5609176
Keep in mind they are really tiny, not 1/12
>>5609183
I was a kid during the N64 era which made me by default not interested in mega man in the slightest.
>>5609185
18th.
Ryoma is 4750, but I still think he's too small.
>>5609188
How tiny is tiny?
1/18?
>>5609191
I was as well and I still knew about and played Battle Network when it was a thing.
![d93f126f[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/C5Vgtrr.jpg "d93f126f[1].jpg")
You merely adopted the Net... I was born in it, molded by it.
>>5609191
>I was a kid during the N64 era
>he thinks that's an excuse
>>5609195
4 inches. Which for at least regular Megaman is honestly probably around 1/12 cause I picture him being like 4 foot tall anyway.
>>5609188
They're 4" tall, that's pretty close to what Mega Man should be. Mega Man is like 130cm tall, which is roughly 50". 4" x 12 = 48".
For all intents and purposes, that Mega Man is 1/12.
>>5609202
>collarbone
hnngg
>>5609203
That game is fucking garbage especially on the n64
Nobody I knew had that and I'm glad.
>>5609195
everything in this line of figures is supposed to be 4 inches
>>5609211
I liked it. The design was nice and the upgrade system was fun. Plus Roll and Tron, I mean geez dude am I right?
5 Rockman, 1 Cutman. Sentinel, Megaman is cool but I will legit sell my children for a chance to own all 97k robot masters.
>>5609202
Is this going to come with the normal release of the figure or is it a special thing?
I heard he uses revoltech joints at least the elbows are.
Now I'm kinda wary since I never liked revoltechs much.
That .EXE is beautiful and cheaper than I expected. A little light on accessories, but I can't complain.
>>5609230
Normal release.
>>5609241
>A little light on accessories, but I can't complain
It's the industry all over, sadly.
>>5609166
About 30% cheaper than I expected. I'll grab both.
>>5609211
I'm sorry for you and your friend's lack of good games and systems.
>>5609176
I love the look, the articulations look great, the price is definitely fair... There's no way they'll make Blues, Forte and Roll so I could have all the 4 characters I want in the same line then.
>Getter Robo and Mega Man figures right off the bat out of fucking nowhere
I like this line a lot already.
Do we know if/when the Rush Parts Rock and Cutman are being released?
>>5609176
I'm also wondering this.
>>5609166
I don't know why but it looks like it's probably very small and fragile.
>>5609206
Yeah pretty sure this guy said the same thing before claiming it isn't 1/12, it completely is
Pre-orders start on the 18th and release for both set for August. Love EXE and hope they'll do more.
>>5609166
Oh, so he's coming with the sword, then?
Fuck me. I guess I'm buying this guy.
>>5609166
Fuck, I'm not even a huge fan of EXE but he look so cool. I'll probably order both.
>10cm
man, I want it but it's smaller than D-arts or the Koto kits
>>5609206
>>5609205
In other other words, that's D-arts size. which is just awesome AND perfect.
>>5609176
>Is there a reason why they have only these parts as the promo image, when in the linked article it shows different faces too?
maybe theyre selling more parts separately to keep it at that price. Personally, I like what this basic set is already offering
>>5609397
They better sell 10cm figures of the other guys then. because i hate the koto kits
>>5609409
>physical DLC
Pls no, I still respect Sentinel
Need that protoman
battle network was great back in the day
![a3a88673[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/mBtZRAc.jpg "a3a88673[1].jpg")
i wonder if could fit the old mattel weap-
>EXE's weapons have the peg not the arm
welp
>>5609623
>mattel
what a terrrible time it was to be a Mega Man fan
>>5609623
I dabble in Shapeways parts, so check back a month or so after release. The first parts I think I'll model are Widesword and Cannon.
you think they'll do shadowman.exe?
>>5609655
That said, the way they implemented the elbow joint into the weapons is going to be annoying. I might skip it when it comes to big things like Cannon, but Widesword is going to be at least two pieces.
>>5609166
They're doing Robot Masters too, right? I hope they make my nigga Air Man
>>5609409
The usual thing they do (well, mostly bandai) is to have the extra parts as first production exclusive.
Or have the parts only included if you buy them from their web store. Which I think will be the Union Creative store.
Just a guess.
>>5609166
please tell me we're getting searchman exe, guy was operator as fuck.
>>5609750
Yeah, but why would they do that with a mouth? You practically can't do any action poses with the figure without it
>>5609166
Welp, these are getting bought.
>>5609166
i want this so god damn bad.
>>5609750
I don't have a lot of experience buying Sentinel figures. If they do make exclusive parts, how can I get them?
>>5609809
Yeah it:s dumb but SHF and figma has done extra face part like that.
But it might come with Super Rockman who knows.
>>5609883
Don't know if they are going to do this, but I think some of the Wego stuff had exclusive colous. I think they were available on amiami before. If it's like shop exclusive, then middleman service for the UC store site, or sites that tends to have limited stuff like Nippon-Yasan would be my way.
>>5609203
If this series ignores Rockman DASH completely, I will go to some cliff edge in a rainy day and scream "Why!?" for like 30 minutes.
Seriously, I feel like this is the last chance to see a decent action figure for that franchise.
>>5609224
Yeah this series pretty much became the foundation of my art style, And Tron might have awoken me to feeling funny in my pants for anime girls...
Plus backstory was pretty interesting, like how the human race is actually extinct except for one, and the people of that world is actually super advanced robots (hence they can have cyborg parts without rejection).
>>5609237
These days they tend to use smooth, non-ratcheting joints, especially for smaller figures. So if it:s true I don't think you need to worry, it will be just like figma joints.
>>5609191
I had a PS1 growing up and fucking loved mega man. I played the fuck out of X4 and X6.
Really like how they incorporated the double joint at the knees, the boots would have hindered the range of articulation otherwise.
>>5609992
I don't know, looks like PAK knee syndrome to me.
I would prefer if they kept it single joint but did something to the back of the boots so it slide or collapse in so it wont hinder the range as much. Or just have a big dent ant the back, I wouldn't mind too much.
I already have the Truforce - X which is engineered and produced by sentinel, this shit is going to be amazing, top notch articulation engineering! Will definetly get all of them!
>>5610018
I hope truforce makes a bitchin Vile figure. I was not happy with bandais and sold mine. Might consider rebuying if i can find him cheap or if he gets a rerelease, but i know i'll be dissapointed again.
>>5610017
>I don't know, looks like PAK knee syndrome to me.
I think it's pretty hard to avoid with the design. The only .EXE toyline I know of that had effective two-joint knees was Rockin' Action, which handled the joint the same way but with the swing-out part being the boot color instead.
>>5610031
Er, sometimes the boot color. Apparently Normal Style had them in dark blue.
>>5610017
With EXE's boots you'd definitely need a big indent.
>megaman
>>5609202
I think i'd be tempted to get this if they released heat style with it. Or heat guts, if there's no zer.exe, protoman.exe, or Searchman.exe I don't care though.
>>5609169
>>5609179
>>5609183
>>5609261
hopefully you guys get him, evne if you don't like megamn, if you like the design, get it, that's what art and toys are about after all. Also get a rom of the battlenetwork games, I never played 1, but 2 onwards was good, you even get to play robot masters in the later ones.
>>5609656
I hope so matey,
>>5609166
is it wrong that I wan this version more than the classic version?
>>5609166
Normally I just buy robbits (gundam primarily), not so much very human looking characters... but damn I love me some .exe
The battle network games were a keystone of my late childhood. Definitely going to get this.
>>5610160
It's only wrong if you hotglue it
Absolutely CUTE.
>>5610191
I'll try my best.
Ugh, also wish I played these games/was a bigger Mega Man figure.
These look incredible
But I've already limited my collection to certain things
:(
>>5609648
tecnhincally those were imports from the old takara line that came with battle chip, mattel just redistributed them over here.
in any case the things had awful articulation too, and sadly bandai's, which those were better in articulation department and accesories, they were fragile as fuck
I hope they do a Rush.
>>5609992
WTF is that shit?
>>5610458
Looks like a telescoping joint...shifts in and out the lower legs.
>>5610448
Already confirmed
>>5610488
Not sure what that is, you mean you think it extends?
Looking at >>5610040 you see it is just a double joint, but the back of the boot can bend in 90 degrees so when the leg is straight the front of the boot covers up that elongated knee cap.
Ideally I don't like double jointed knees or elbows, since the human body is not designed like that.
But since sometimes you must due to design, I wish they keep the distance between the two joints smaller, even if it means you can't have a 180 bent.
Another way is to do what figma or Revoltechs tend to do, and have the joint be off center from the line of the limb, so it can bend much further just with a single joint, but that can look unappealing. For him they could have the back rim of the boot the actual joint and when you bend it will show a "bent knee" mold that was hidden in the boot when the leg was straight.
>>5609623
Kinda wish the blade was translucent/semi-translucent.
>>5610781
It may well be. That pic is pretty clearly just photoshopped together from separate photo elements--look at the super-crisp cutouts around the stand elements and the cheapo drop shadows under them. That blade might be a transparent plastic piece that was originally photographed on a white background, and whoever composited this image together didn't bother making it look translucent again.
>>5610623
>Not sure what that is, you mean you think it extends?
The inner component of the boot cuff slightly tucks behind the back of the calf, allowing the bend to go even further.
>>5610811
Yeah okay on the same boat. It goes 90 degrees into the calf though. I think that boot piece and the knee joint don't move relative to each other.
And I think the elbow does exactly what I want the knee to do.
>>5609883
Sorry anon, I didn't look at the fine print on the site I go to for these type of news.
The do have a store site, and 3 of the announced figures are exclusives, fuck.
http://gentinel.net/ja/
I'm sure sites like nippon-yasan will have them.
How much longer until X and Volnutt will get figures
>>5610969
X had pretty good track record with action figures.
Rock Volnutt man like this is it. I guess it is one of those games where you have hardcore fans but not enough of them. But some of the minor stuff Bandai MF Kaiyodo etc released surely have less fans to them.
And guys, that whole where is that face part?? thing.
「ロックマン」
セット内容:本体、交換用手首、表情パーツ、
ロックバスター、専用台座
表情パーツ = expression parts, so extra face part.
It's in there don't worry.
I really should read the text.
>>5610983
Thank fuck, Mega man is an instant PO for me now
>>5609166
gonna need more shelf space
>>5611950
thanks for reminding me about the Mega Man Legends Servbot figures I'll never ever ever ever find for a reasonable price.
quick post your magaman and megaman exe wants
>>5612070
all I want is shadowman
>>5612070
The one that can't be beaten
>>5612070
There are too many good designs in the EXE series for me to list them all of my wants... Limiting it down to one choice, I'd go for EleceMan since he's a pretty iconic Navi, and made a grand total of 3 appearances in the games! (4, if you count 4.5)
>>5612070
I would cry tears of joy for a skullman.
>>5612070

Metalman.EXE
Tomahawkman.EXE
Numberman.EXE
Colonel.EXE
>>5612070
Realistically, Mega Man has too many options to ever release boss characters. There's just too many of them and only a small group of the fanbase is interested in buying each.
I doubt I'd buy many robot masters from Classic outside of the ones from the first 1-2 games. And even that's debatable at $40+ per figure. Mega Man, Roll, Bass, Protoman and Duo would all be sure purchases.
For EXE I'd probably buy Mega Man, Roll, Gutsman, Protoman. I dunno, maybe Numberman?
>>5610445 No, the PETs and chips were the only things that Mattel imported. All of the figures and everything else were designed and produced by Mattel themselves (why else do you think they had T-hips?). Takara had their own line of action figure model kits that were released in Japan, though.
>>5612063

>>5612070
Revive the D-Arts line
Give me a Dynamo, all of the X armors pre-X6, Axl, Command Mission X, Protoman, Bass, Colonel .EXE, Shadowman.EXE, and a shitload of different buster effects.
>>5613037
D-Arts line is terrible. If these prototypes of Sentinels play out they can have the license. Out of all the D-Arts figures Vile is the only one that isn't shit. I would love if even Truforce took the license to make offical designs of characters.
>>5613046
I disagree. The D-Arts line are a good size with good articulation. the only figure I have a problem with is normal X and even then its only one of the arms.
>Shit
Quit the hyperbole. I don't want Truforce doing anything since I'm not impressed with the X they did. Face looks really fucking off and the proportions bother me, not to mention how fucking expensive it is. If these sentinel figures weren't so damn small I'd probably want them, though. They do look nice.
>>5613050
Good articulation doesn't mean shit when they fall apart half of the time. Neo Zero can barely stand on his own and his hair consistently falls out. All of the Zeros have consistently loose joints or arms that fall out of the sockets and yes X pretty much has that problem all the figures also the tip of his buster falls out randomly. The Megaman line is slightly better but the colours of Megaman and Bass are way off. D-Arts look good but the quality is just not there. If you actually handled the Truforce X you'd realize it's easily one of the best figures to come out last year in terms of quality. The only flaw it has is no gripping hand accessory. I own the entire D-Arts line but the Armor X's. If I didn't get the series at MSRP I would have a fuckload of buyers remorse. Still might pay the late tax on an Armor X. I found one on Mandy for 100 last year but after rearranging my MegaMan display and dealing with all of those problems again I was just too turned off to put up that money.
>>5613037
God damn I FORGOT about Dynamo!
I want this Vile, he has no merch and he looks like robo predator. MK 2 would be cool as well. Shame the x line couldn't be taller. exe is fine, long as any bosses are in scale with him. So many to choose from in exe really!
>>5613296
>Neca
>>5613299
hey man, whoever makes a decent figure of him. Just happy to see sentinel not charging up the ass for things finally.
>>5613313
I want a toy of that
It would be cool if they did a subline of Ariga Hitoshi design versions.
Only mega man games I haven't played are Battle Network. Where should I start?
>>5613395
And also if I watch the anime will it spoil the games?
>>5613395
Maybe the DS remake of the first game. It ties in with StarForce. 5 was also released for the DS.
and iirc 2 is where the translation and spelling gets hilariously fucked up at certain points
>>5613408
it certainly will. I always believe its better to be spoiled by the game before the anime
>>5613454
Operate Shooting Star is the game you're thinking of, and it was never released outside of Japan. No translation patch exists as far as I know.
It's not even a remake, really. Just a port with the added crossover scenario and the ability to, well, operate Shooting Star.
>>5613408
The anime follows the first game very, very loosely in the beginning before spinning off into its own thing. The only thing the anime might spoil is the existence of certain characters.
>>5613395
If you want to go chronologically, BN1. Only problem with that is how primitive the battle system is at that point, and the internet is a big, pale-blue, blob of a maze. Battle Network 2 is where the series hit its stride by introducing the Style system and dividing the net up into aesthetically different areas.
>>5613576
Thanks! Would you say the story is worth it to wade through the first? Think I might do that then maybe watch the anime.
I remember seeing screens of the first in Nintendo Power and back then thinking the graphics were mindblowing
>>5613317
Yeah, same here.
>>5613620
Honestly, I think you'd be fine with a synopsis of 1 and jumping into 2. I like the story, but that's probably my nostalgia.
>>5609166
Is there a release date yet? I've been wanting a HQ Megaman EXE figure for years now.
>>5612903
>> Number Man
I'd fucking buy it.
Realstically EXE would be Blues, Rock, and Forte as safe buys
Maybe Shadow Man EXE or Search Man EXE, or Colonel or something if they're freeling risky.
>>5613692
August, apparently. Preorders are supposed to go up tomorrow.
I almost forgot about this SOB, fucking legend design.
>>5610968
Whaaaaaaaat, fuck N-Y. Why are these exclusives when ryoma wasn't. So no where down the road will hlj or amiami have these?
>>5609191
I got an nes for free from a local church when I was like around 10 or 12 (I'm 21 now for reference) and one of the games I got was MegaMan 3 and I played the dicks out of it.
Then later I got that classic mega-man collection for ps2 and played the fuck outta THAT
You have no excuse really
>>5613905
That means they'll be up tonight for american's then, right?
>>5612070
I want a good Snakeman figure so fucking bad.
It'll never happen, but I can dream
>>5614450
Man what an incredible design. I loved the exe style way more than the other megaman styles.
You guys think we'll get SNES style X if these two do well? The D-arts has reached stupidly expensive prices
so just to get things straight: Megaman and MM.exe will NOT be on HLJ, right? Or are those just the power armor megamans?
Sorry, stupid gaijin who can't read nip
I gotta ask, having the koti kit do you think I should get the sentinel? Obviously its not out yet but what are you guys thinking in regards to how it compares from what has been shown?
>>5614617
im getting the sentinel to replace my D-arts...if it is better. Koto kits we're always too tall for me, even back before D-arts was a thing
>>5614606
dont know where you got that idea. maybe i missed a post that says its an exclusive, but if not, we'll certainly see it on those specific sites. I dont think japan got TruForce X...locally that is.
>>5613454
Two was great because of the super black man giving lab whiskey, Guass's plan to 9/11 himself getting Foilded with a "DAMN IT TO HELL!" And higsby getting called a queer...
>>5610051
Yeah I just downloaded 2, it's pretty fun. I like how it has jrpg mechanics and real-time battles
>webstore exclusive parts and figures
Why is this allowed? Do they hate gaijinbux that much?
>>5614750
Fuck, really? Where did you find this info?
>>5614577
Anon, just imagine:
...poseable head tail.
>>5614774
It's kind of odd but I preordered it all the same. We'll find out more details in the coming months, I'm sure.
>>5609166
No Volnutt?
>>5614800
Same, though I'm not so sure about the details.
I wonder if HLJ will ban me if I cancel another order, though. Already cancelled a preorder only to re-PO it in the following few hours.
>>5614808
HLJ won't suspend your account unless you duck out when the payment is requested or you're non-stop ordering and cancelling things.
>>5614803
I imagine he's very possible if the line is successful. If a robot master is confimed a actual mega man is a definite. I look forward to this line as I feel their going to be very diverse and original in their character selection.
I like the potential of the line, but the fact that zero figures are going to go above 10cm really limits what I have to look forward to. 10cm Guts Man with a 10cm Mega Man is pointless to me.
Both are up on amiami, too. You have to search for them, though.
>>5614852
It's not like they are bound by law...
They can make bigger characters in scale to Megaman all they want.
>>5614819
mayyybe I should wait a day before cancelling my figma Yami Yugi, in that case
>>5614860
And amiami lists the expression part
>>5614869
I'm not going to claim gospel truth here, but I'm pretty sure it's been reported in the past that everything is 4"/10cm. Thus the name 4INCH-NEL, and why Ryoma is 4".
>>5614885
The line just started so lets wait before we freak out completely.
>>5614885
The can just release as Riobot or something. Unless they have some weird licence agreement with Capcom.
Point is, they would do what they think will sell, and no one at the meeting will say hey we can't do that because we made some stupid promise.
Also one reason why Ryoma is that size is to be smaller than their Getter 1.
For those wondering, this is Sentinel's official english blog:
>http://sen-ti-nel.blogspot.com
...and it confirms that Mega Man comes with the gritting expression face, and that EXE comes with the masked face.
>Included face parts will be this gritting face expression that can be used in many battle scenes from the video game.
>Parts to recreate the masked version seen during battle will be included
Also, on a side note: I'm exceptionally pissed that I did not hear about the reissue of the Sentinel Black Getter until I found the blog a few moments ago and, upon checking, all the pre-order slots at HLJ are gone.
>>5614860

http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-018644 - EXE 3,700¥
>>5614913
If it makes you feel any better, I doubt my order for Getter 1 will go through since I ordered it a little late in the PO period.
All this hype over a 4 inch figure
>>5614921
What's the lower limit of inches before there can be hype?
>>5614918
When did the PO for them go up? I'm beyond furious that none of the toy news sites that I visit, even the import-leaning ones, mentioned it.
>>5614929
April 8th, same day as Ryoma. It was very sudden so I can't blame you for not catching it.
>>5614927
You must be
>this tall
To ride the hype train
Don't know which one to order. hmm.
>>5614921
Well they are not shitty like SW, GI Joe, or MU.
>>5614935
Maaaaaaaaan... Well, I'm just going to have to watch that listing page like a hawk these next few months, wait for someone to back out or something. It's been a grail figure for me for the last year and some change, so I'm not going to let it slip past.
>>5614929
HLJ doesn't have a good system for rereleases, unless they enter them in as a separate product code, like has (Reproduction) in the name.
You just have to know and search for them. I use Figsoku and TAGhobby for news, not western sites but with translation or even just the photos you could pick up on stuff like that.
>>5614917
>already have the koto kit
>comes out to $40 for a 4 inch figure
But
>best figure of one of my favorite game characters
>scared of possiblity of it being scalped
Fuck.
Shovel knight fucking when
>>5614957
Yeah, it bums me out because I was on HLJ the night Ryoma was listed and didn't see anything. The funny thing is, if I actually had an interest in Ryoma and read his item description on HLJ that night, it has links to both Getters. What a drag.
Whose next? I'm not a big fan of EXE though he looks cool. I don't want to spend on him if they are going to announce X or even MML in acouple months.
>>5614917
HLJ has it 1 yen more expensive, but I do like the option to cancel and the exchange rate is $34.95 there.
While amiami is a wild card.
What do?
>>5615033
The listed exchange rate is irrelevant. Your card (or paypal, god help you) decides what it is.
But go with HLJ if you want to utilize private warehouse, that's where the advantage sets in.
Anyone else order this CD?

Or CD box set? Contains music from 1-6. Has 281 tracks.
http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01DBP4PKG
>>5609176
For some reason this looks more appealing to me than the d-arts or plastic model kit. I think it's the proportions?

ZX has the best "Zero" design though.
Wow, that's pretty good for EXE/BN to be #1 on both English and Japanese AmiAmi overall "Most Viewed Ranking".

Fuck me and here I am thinking about POing MoMos and with a Koto Mega Man here.
I just know this'll go for rape prices once time has passed. Fuuuck.

That meme is the worst. You only need to do a minimum of dodging while spamming the fuck out of your Mega Buster to kill him. He is literally one of the easiest Robot Masters; I start 2 with him almost every time just because he's so easy.
Yes, this is on "Difficult" mode.
>>5612070
All Robot Masters deserve figures frankly. Maybe even the PC Mega Man ones.
To anybody who has never played a Mega man game, get some emulators and start playing. Mega Man is simple, stress-free, and fun as all hell.

Aaand preordered.
Are the exclusive figures up yet? I've never had to deal with Japanese online exclusives before so I'm clueless on where to begin ordering those.

Hmm.
Am I the only one that wants that updated design X?

I don't care about the meme. The song's just too damn good.

I know your feels bro... I think theyr next product will be that X bike... you know what would be wicked? a pack with 3 batton bones, and other common enemies

His stage is also the easiest one in my opinion, but the song is awesome so who cares.
>>5615269

Prepared both on amiami along with blurr. All predominantly blue figures.
>>5615606
This is why you murder Air Man ahead of time.
>>5613349
There were some garage kits of those designs last wonfes if memory serves. That's as close as you'll get honestly
>>5614774
NEVEREVER.jpg trust a HLJ description, those are hilariusly inacurate 80% of the time. Always check out the item at other webshop first, and buy it at hlj later.
>>5614959
It WILL be scalped, gaem figures always do. It's a now-or-never deal.
>>5615269
The koto kits will probably get reissued, these figures will not. Pretty easy to decide knoeing that imo
>>5615666
>The koto kits will probably get reissued
They already have been reissued once or twice. Koto is pretty good about that.
>these figures will not
There's a chance these will have a second production run, Sentinel isn't stingy about that. They did it for Canti when it proved popular, as well as some of their Armorize line and now (as I was complaining about in above posts and will again in a moment) their Getter figures.
Sentinel isn't Bandai, they know that customers want to buy things are are willing to sell it to them.
>>5614957
I ended up putting in a safety net preorder with BBTS... I feel so filthy, but I need Black Getter. It's only $10 more than HLJ, and who knows where the USD:JPY exchange rate will be in a few months so maybe it'll work out.
>>5612070
These guys and the rest of the World 3.
>mfw Battle Network getting love.
I honestly thought Capcom would think of it as the bastard child of the series after ALL the bitching and whining the critics and fans against it for not being a sidescroller jump and shoot game. I wish we could have just ONE more Battle Network, just one last adventure.
I remember when a magazine I read gave the third game a 3/10 on the grounds of "being Mega Man in name only".
>>5610458
Imagine if it was just one joint unlike GI joes?
you wouldn't get the guy able to kneel down on a tatami mat kind of shit
>>5615887
Go fuck yourself. Its not whining just because you like the series.
>>5609203
Sentinel Volnutt fucking when? If any Megaman needs a figure it's him, with a shit load of accessories preferably.
>>5615887
The thing is all that criticism was completely pointless, considering Battle Network is to date the most successful Megaman series.
>>5615110
fuck off I care about star force
>>5615606
I play Mega Man 10 on easy
>>5616036
I'm hoping Red Ash hype will bring back some nostalgia and products as well.
BTW that title has the meaning of RE DASH, right?
>>5616205
Don't expect anything of Red Ash for years at best. Especially considering the kickstarter failed so badly it essentially killed any hope of more Legends material. Hell, just look at the fucking fiasco that is Mighty No. 9.
>>5616029
It is whining as the entire subseries was judged for being a different genre from it's parent series.
I don't see people complaining about the Mario & Luigi RPG series for not being platformers, endlessly comparing it to it's parent series, so why Mega Man Battle Network must be compared to the original?

That guys is obviously fishing for replies. Why give him a (you)? Look at how many buzzwords are in that post. Don't take such a thing seriously.
>>5616353
I'm sorry but when a young man gets a stiffy from a bunch of pixels that looks like a woman over an actual women something very wrong must have happened in his life to make him such a loser of a person.
>>5616272
The structure of MMBN isn't that far off. Obviously the gameplay is massively different, but the way it's very focused on small enemy-based challenges leading up to true boss fights is certainly Mega Man.
I think part of the problem is people wanted more classic Mega Man for years and the closest we got was MMZ (which is better anyway, but whatever)
>>5616370
>he says on the toy board of the swedish sweater embroidery imageboard wherein people regularly discuss figures with giant cleavage and/or asses, up to and including the fear of people who take the time to cum on them and how to detect and clean stains remaining from such acts
You blew it.
2/10 got me to reply
>>5616036
sucks he never did a tron. Who he really should've done before the brothers.
>>5616205
If they can't release their knockoff main megaman on time, what hope have you for knockoff unpopular megaman?
>>5616036
Both legends games and tron bonne were released on the psn so there's hope. I imagine the different mega man incarnations are the most likely for a wave 2.
>>5616243
I thought the failure thing is that they just got an actual sponsor so kickstarter didn't matter anymore. I forget I looked it up once after a while that I learned of the game.
Capcom just seem to hate Dash series, they cancel 3, only did capsule figures for the most part. No PSP Tron and Kobun. And yet anytime the topic of figures comes up I see quite a few where is Volnutt posts.
>>5616422
>on the psn
Ah at least it is something.
>>5616372
From what I read up, MMBN was made precisely because classic Mega Man didn't sold well, apparently Mega Man 8 didn't sold as expected for a relatively high budget Mega Man game (anime cutscenes, voice acting, and the HEAVY promoting for being the 10th anniversary).
Seems like they thought kids didn't care for Classic Mega Man anymore and Battle Network was made as an answer, taking a popular genre among japanese kids (RPG) and a theme kids find hip (Internet and cellphones).
MMBN carries the torch of classic Mega Man in spirit with it's own twist, but I still believe ultimately MMBN must be judged by it's own merits and flaws alone.
Real quick, planning to preorder classic mega man, is HLJ the cheapest or is there a cheaper option? Amiami is a bit more expensive and BBTS has it at $50 so fuck that.
>>5615255
MMZ is pretty shota.
>>5615381
i guess. you could just get D-arts X and live with that forever. Truforce X is also good ,mechanics-wise
also i want Axl, he was all rihgt

>>5616669
Oddly enough Hobbylink Japan has him at 100¥ more at 3800 versus AmiAmi's 3700.
>>5616714
I could of swore I saw he was more on amiami, thanks.
So can anyone tell me what's going on here?
Are these all confirmed for the 4inch line? I'd much rather get some of the variants than the standard versions.
>>5616746
Yep, when they're coming out though is unknown. I'm guessing the mega mans will be reissued and the others will be limited editions.
>>5616714
Anyone know a fig about 4 inches that's a robot girl? kind of like polynian but same scale as BN mega
>>5616757
Well standard EXE goes into the trash then. I'll wait for the edgy version.
I don't know enough about the red forms of Megaman, are either of them likely to come with a buster?
>>5616762
Probably the flying version of 6 will. The power armor and combined armor might but wouldn't count on it.
Why the edge version of EXE? Never played the EXE games but think the regular looks better. Is edge just evil mega man? Isn't that bass.exe?
>>5616762
Red are Rush Adapter variants from MM6 and MM7 although I swear the pictures with the exception of the punch adapter display the same thing..
>>5616777
In mm6 the flying armor and power armor were separate while in 7 they were combined. I imagine they will initially release the two armors then the combined armor.
>>5616776
Silver and black/dark blue is a better color palette than blue and yellow imo
>>5616777
TFW Cut Man is after the MM6 armors.
This is gonna be a long painful wait that may lead to disappointment if the line bombs.
>>5616806
I imagine they will at the least release everything shown, also already both mega mans seem like they're doing good. I wouldn't worry.
>>5616746
> red is fav color
> 3 different megas to choose from
Guess I'll wait to see which one comes with the most stuff. I'm not richfagging this line.
>>5616823
The combined armor will, its the combination of the other two armor figures.
>>5612070
MAKE THE 9 ROBOT MASTERS.
>>5616771
I highly doubt it, since the alt colors so far on the Sentinel site are not on HLJ.
How is the Koto kit?
It's cheaper and comes with alot more accessories, but I've never put together a model.
Any good reason to spend more on the sentinel?
>>5616903
Wait, the alt colors are already up somewhere? Or do you mean for stuff like their Riobot line and Vulcanlog Goshogun?
>>5616960
The articulation is pretty limited and it's kind of ugly up close with all the seams. It's very easy to put together though.
>>5616960
The sentinel one will likely be much more articulated, and if you have little experience building kits it won't look as good. They're also pretty different stylistically.
Sorry but I'm pretty new to collecting. I made a account on HLJ and ordered the classic mega man and got an email saying they'll bill me later. Seeing as it comes out in August when should I expect to be billed?
>>5616993
Read their FAQ.
>>5616993
In August.
>>5616999
I didn't know if I should expect it sooner or at the time of release, thank you.
Makes me wish they would make an accurate Casshan.
>>5616433
The kickstarter was already losing money before they announced that they were being funded. By that time the campaign was a laughing stock and most of the people supporting it had already been turned off by the sketchy, and incompetent way it was being run.
The whole thing was one big scam anyway since it turned out Inafune had actually been in talks with them about it over a month before the kickstarter, and shit had already finalized.
>>5616970
The alt colors aren't even pre-production probably.
I do wonder if they will wait until the first two figures release in August to announce officially them, or if it will take much longer than that.
>>5616970
Yeah I mean the Dancouga and Ultraman stuff. Did you go to the site at all?
>>5617046
I imagine the possibly of them seeing how the regular classic and EXE do to see how much quantity they should do of the alt versions.
>>5616960
>I've never put a model kit together
>any good reason to spend more on the sentinel?
Those go hand-in-hand, senpai. The kit isn't the worst, but it looks really bleh without painting it. If you're willing to put the effort into making it look good, then by all means go for it.
