Courtesy of Amazon, here's what one can expect from the currently unannounced Xbox One special edition of Mega Man Legacy Collection. The promised statue is little more than a slightly refined mold of Capcom USA's previous 25th anniversary statue. The E-Tank is a new piece altogether.
According to the product description, the statue's buster and helmet light up when Mega Man's left leg touches the E-Tank. There's probably a base for the whole kit-and-caboodle, too. As for a PlayStation 4 variant, well, there's been no sign of it yet. UPDATE: PS4 variant confirmed, just showed up.
From what we've previously gathered, this bundle will launch alongside the physical MMLC on February 23rd for $129.99 USD. Stay tuned for more info!
UPDATE 2: A Capcom rep informed me this bundle is not an official bundle. It's something Amazon put together on their side. The official Collector’s Edition Capcom is offering is the Nintendo 3DS Collector’s Edition that features the gold-colored Mega Man amiibo. Regardless, we'll keep an eye out for pre-orders.
UPDATE 3: Pre-orders are live!
So it already sold out?
ReplyDelete...Does the statue not look a little cross-eyed?
ReplyDeleteLeast the E-Tank looks decent.
It's better than the 25th ann statue in my opinion.

ReplyDeleteAmazon usually shows items as sold out even if they haven't yet gone on sale. A makeshift placeholder, pretty much.

Lol, not again! This was one of the primary concerns back when the original statue was being made. Capcom got a ton of conflicting feedback about the eyes. Eventually, the eyes were distanced from the center, to which a lot of people complained. I didn't mind it much, since it gave it a stoic statue look, though with this one, they've perfected the face. You'll notice other Mega Man figures and lots of official artwork showing both eyes situated towards the center.
@whitetrashshayno @everyone_else They had preorders opened up a few days ago, I was able to snag an order then. So I don't know if they closed it down for now or if they legitimately are sold out. Only Xbox One was available before, but I dunno if PS4 was ever for sale. I'm hoping it's not sold out because I really wanted the PS4 edition.
ReplyDeleteYea, I dunno if the status is worth $100.....it looks cool, but that's almost half the price of a First4Figures sculpt, which are extremely high quality.
ReplyDeleteWhile I agree F4F's sculpts are higher quality. Personally I don't think they look right, aside from Proto Man (which I have ordered). They're X was looking good, but even then.. his nonsensical pose and jet streams out of his feet kept me away from that too.
DeleteYou're joking right...?
DeleteNo, Zero is another example, he's too short and stubby looking. And his arms (the black parts) are awkwardly scrawny.
DeleteBut in the end, I don't mind. Saves me from spending money on them. lol
Let's see... The Old mold was around $99.99. And since I already have it, there's no need to get this one. If this had been a different mold I'd get it. Plus the old mold was suppose to be limited. How is Amazon able to sell the same thing?
ReplyDeleteSame mold/pose, but this is a different statue. I'm sure it's made from a different material too as it needs conductivity to light up when touching the E-Can.
DeleteIn other news, a PS4 version? Perfect. I intended to get a copy for the PS4 anyway. It's all the more sweeter that February 23rd is my b-day. lol
I'm just sticking with the 3DS version for the gold amiibo
DeleteAnd thanks to Amazon, the international shipping is super cheap (albeit the exchange rate is a heart breaker)! Thanks too for the heads up Rockman corner, I still regularly kick dirt about missing out on the Mighty No 9 Signature edition, but so glad I got this.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the PS4 edition sold out lol
