Kotobukiya MM11 Mega Man "Premium Charge Shot" Now Available to Pre-Order (Updated)

Kotobukiya gave us a sneak peek during the All Japan Model & Hobby Show, and now they've officially revealed the price and release date for the Premium Charge Shot edition of MM11 Mega Man.

As always, this model kit is sold exclusively on Kotobukiya's online store in Japan, but eventually, stores like Big Bad Toy Store will offer it to the rest of the world. (UPDATE: Now available on BBTS)

After the break, you can check out some images and the model kit specifications!

"This color variant uses a special iridescent coating that changes color depending on the light that resembles the in-game energy charge effect! The effect parts are also an iridescent red to recreate the look of the Power Gear being used!

The intricate part separation featured in the Mega Man X plastic model kits and the proportions and articulation achieved through CAD technology allows users to assemble Mega Man as if he stepped out of the game! Furthermore, the inclusion of four interchangeable face parts full of personality, the Buster, impressive Charge Shot effect parts, and other included items allow users to reenact various iconic scenes from Mega Man!"
