Grandista Mega Man Metallic Version Due in March 2026

Bandai’s popular Grandista Mega Man figure appears to be getting a new coat of paint. A low res image of a metallic variant has surfaced on Weibo, My Figure Collection, and various figure pages in the last few hours. While this seems to be an early leak ahead of an official announcement from Bandai, initial details suggest the figure is slated for release in March 2026.

The original Grandista figure debuted in Japan in 2020 as a redemption prize before later seeing individual releases in North America and overseas. While it’s still available from select retailers, new stock appears to have dried up some time ago, making this new version seem poised to take its place.

More details soon!

More Images of Hiya Toys X, Falcon Armor X and Zero

New York Comic Con has kicked off, giving us a clearer look at three of Hiya Toys’ upcoming Mega Man X figures: X, Falcon Armor X, and Zero. Though still in the prototype stage, we now have a better sense of each character’s finer details and included accessories.

Hiya Toys Falcon Armor X Revealed (Updated)

Not the clearest photo, but it’s all we’ve got for now. UPDATE: Better image added! Spotted by Toys Lab at Wonderfest Shanghai 2025, Hiya Toys has a new Falcon Armor X figure on display. Like X, Zero, and Sigma, it’s 1/12 scale and features the same articulation range.

That’s all the info for now—we’ll share more details as soon as they surface!

Hiya Toys 1/12 Scale X Color Prototype

Via the Mega Man and Rockman Toys & Collectibles Facebook page, we have a brand-new look at Hiya Toys' 1/12 X figure. Currently on display at Wonderfest Shanghai, this is our first look at the figure in color following its appearance at the San Diego Comic-Con.

No further details were shared at the show beyond what’s already known: it’s part of the "Exquisite Basic" line, which means a solid range of articulation and a selection of accessories. Confirmed inclusions are multiple hand options, face plates, and X-Buster effect parts.

For more images of X—as well as Zero and Sigma—check out our earlier coverage here.

Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection Wins Future Division Award at TGS 2025

The Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association (CESA) announced the winners of the 2025 Japan Game Award Future Division during this year’s Tokyo Game Show. A total of eleven upcoming games were recognized as highly anticipated software, chosen through public voting and further evaluated by the Japan Game Awards Selection Committee. Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection was among the recipients, with producer Shino Izumi and Rockman Unity’s Ucchy-san appearing on stage to accept the award.

This marks the fifth time a Mega Man title has earned the honor, following Battle Network 3 in 2002, Battle Network 5 in 2004, Mega Man 11 in 2018, and Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection in 2022. 

Each of those titles went on to achieve commercial success in Japan and overseas, making the Future Division Award something of an indicator of strong sales. Here's hoping Star Force Legacy Collection will carry the momentum forward.

You can watch this year’s awards ceremony via the archived stream here!

Details from Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection TGS Stage (Director Koji Oda Returns!)

As anticipated, Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection producer Shingo Izumi joined Rockman Unity’s Ucchy-san on stage at Tokyo Game Show to present direct-feed gameplay and share a few new, notable details...

16 Minutes of Off-Screen Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection Gameplay

Word has it that Capcom is keeping a tight lid on filming the Star Force Legacy Collection demo at Tokyo Game Show—you need explicit permission to record. Still, YouTube user east9698 was able to capture about 16 minutes of gameplay from Star Force 1 (Dragon).

Some observations:

• Fuyuka Oura voices Geo/Subaru, and Kentaro Ito voices Omega-Xis/War-Rock. It’s unclear whether this is new audio or remastered.

• The title screen animation isn’t just an upscale of the DS version—it’s been fully remade.

• Renaming Geo is no longer possible, likely to maintain consistency across all three games.

• When navigating in-game menus, interactions between the bottom and top screens are automatic; you don’t need to manually switch between them.

• The vertical screen display option (tate mode) is clearly designed to replicate the original Nintendo DS presentation.

• Free Camera can be used at any time, which is especially useful when exploring Wave Roads.

• As previously confirmed, Geo’s default movement speed can be adjusted, and you can really see it in action here!

As for when we might see direct feed footage, it’s anyone’s guess. Capcom has been slowly releasing screenshots over the past few days, and a panel with the game’s producer is scheduled for this Sunday. So sometime between now and then seems likely.

Capcom Uploads Full Mega Man: Start Episode to YouTube

In case you haven't seen it before, Capcom has made the full Secret Level episode Mega Man: Start available on YouTube for free—no Amazon Prime account required. The release coincides with the grand reopening of Capcom Town, where the episode is "playing" at the Capcom Theater.

Mega Man: Start runs about seven minutes, roughly five without the opening and closing credits. It follows Rock’s transformation into Mega Man as Dr. Wily rises to power and larger-than-life Robot Masters wreak havoc across "Mega City". While most Secret Level episodes received mixed reviews, Mega Man: Start is one of the few that drew praise... but it's incredibly short. 

There's no telling how long Mega Man: Start will stick around on YouTube, so you might as well check it out. It'll be over before you know it.

Mega Man, Proto Man & Rush Roadster Celebrate the Launch of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

To celebrate the launch of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, Sega artist Akira Mikame created this charming countdown illustration featuring the two blue icons, Mega Man and Sonic, with Tails admiring the Rush Roadster and Proto Man watching from a distance.

And that’s not all—Mega Man and Proto Man have also been added to the game’s key visual, with Mega Man behind the wheel of the Rush Roadster and Proto Man riding an Extreme Gear. It’s a little strange seeing the Red Striker absent from the lineup, but the red rocker looks fantastic here, so no complaints.

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is out now, with the Mega Man and Proto Man DLC pack set to arrive in 2026. More updates to come!
