Capcom's partnership with Jazwares was a match made in heaven. From the action figure line and playsets, to the Retro Rotos, Jazwares undoubtedly produced the best Mega Man toys in the West; and yet, some of their best work never made it to store shelves.Over at Figures.com, you can check out a gallery of unreleased Mega Man toys formerly featured at the 2004 - 2006 Toy Shows. Pictured here are two canceled figures from a planned Battle & Chase line up, originally slatted to hit stores shelves sometime in 2004.
Other canceled products of note include a battle damaged Mega Man, a Pantheon, Mega Man Volnutt, and a prop Mega Man X helmet. For more canceled/unreleased toys, check out the following galleries:

This is tough to see, I wanted that Knightman figure for so long....
ReplyDeleteHey I've seen that X buster on ebay whenever I put two NT busters up on ebay. Talk about piggy backing
ReplyDeleteThe X Buster was not canceled. I had one before I donated it to my little brothers.
ReplyDeleteI'm itching to find that X Buster myself, but I haven't seen it on Ebay in a while.
ReplyDeleteHow could they have cancelled Sigma?
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who thinks that the Rockman X helmet could have been very useful for cosplaying? XD
ReplyDeleteI really would've loved the Battle & Chase figures, i love that game. I feel so cheated that i can't have Sonic Formula (Quickman's car)
ReplyDeleteI remember the New York show in 2006 me and Daniel "Protoman" Arseneault went to that one and flipped out when we saw the PVC figures. It's a shame the Battle n Chase stuff never happened.
ReplyDelete- The Shadow -
If I remember correctly, the battle damaged figure and multi-colored Mega Men weren't ever planned for actual production, but were just something they did for fun.

Wow, that pisses me off! Those are some damn sweet toys/figures - it just seems like they canceled the awesome ones X_X But, if you're hard-core, you might be able to find one somewhere if you're willing to pay for them...
