Inaccurate proportions? Shoddy designs? Must be the workings of a bootleg.
For your viewing pleasure, here's the box art for a bootleg Vietnamese version of Ruby Spear's Mega Man cartoon. The VHS is said to be quite common among local flea markets, retailing for the equivalent of two dollars.
Proto Man looks great, (though his appearance in the top left is questionable) but what is up with Mega? Definitely a (crappy) tracing job, the basis of which, seen here. A for effort!

Naw, I's say Mega was eye-balled, and not traced. If it was traced, at least his proportions would have been more accurate. But still... He looks very creepy. >_>
ReplyDeleteomg is tat vietnamese?
ReplyDeletethe draw is horrible.
ReplyDeletebut is the same horrible difference between megaman cartoon and rockman ova XD..
@karade (RockmanForte?): At least the RS cartoon didn't abuse gradients like there was a gradient-abusing pride parade goin' on.
ReplyDeleteThat cover is hilarious. XD
Looks like they took a screenshot from Protoman in "Electric Nightmare" when Mega shows up "late". Ah, nothings more flattering that a bootleg, eh?
ReplyDeleteHahaha. Oh boy... Looks like mega man has Down Syndrome or something.
ReplyDelete@ anon1, yes it is, nguoi may means robot.
ReplyDeleteThat looks pretty messed up.... but its not all THAT bad, i've seen much worse.
ReplyDeletethat´s not a cover, but a crime to my eyes instead
ReplyDeleteThey still didn't overuse gradients as badly as the Nintendo Power guide to Mega Man 3.
