Figure manufacturer 27Abyss Studio has unveiled two new resin figures inspired by X and the Ultimate Armor from Mega Man X4. While the figures are non-posable, they feature a modular design that allows for mix-and-match customization, supported by an internal exoskeleton. The art style blends X’s classic design with elements from his Mega Man X8 appearance, a hybrid that was featured in the 35th anniversary key art.
We'll keep an ear to the ground for additional updates.
Woah. These cool, and probably pricey.
ReplyDeleteThese look alright, but I'm not into non-posable figures/statues, so this is a pass for me.
ReplyDeleteThough I’m not big on statues, this is actually really neat, reasonable price too! Shame the helmet doesn’t seem to come off, looks like just a head swap.
ReplyDeleteI actually like that endoskeleton on its own. Would have been cool to have a cutaway of X's head or something similar.
ReplyDeleteI like the Ultimate Armor, not so much the regular X statue.
ReplyDeletePretty elaborate for a figure.
ReplyDeleteAlas it's far to late I haven't got anything MegaMan series related for what 3 years now and sold off 3 of the 4 walls of merch I owned plus original games lol. Really cool but I just can't buy anything for this gaming IP anymore it hasn't done anything in almost another decade rofl!
ReplyDeleteTrolls selling-off their collections for real fans to buy up? Win-win if you ask me, ROFL!
DeleteBeing Honest, selling your merch with no important reason like needing money for something that matters sounds kinda with no offense dumb, MegaMan is one of those franchises that Thanks for the Pandemic situation many stuff was postponed for later, Sadly MegaMan 11 wasn't something that could sold many Casual's into the franchise it sold itself it's 1 Million but still Capcom needs to improve with something big for the IP if not it will fail again to be constant. Right now they try to do what they should've been done since the 2000-2010's try other Media and expand the IP in other ways and not just 4-5 games each year, Fans alone can't do big sales and the other problems are that not many fans will buy something from certain series like a "BN fan will doubt to buy a new Classic Game-X Game" For example, MegaMan and its different iterations divided the fans, so yeah MegaMan needs to built an audience using other media even it takes 1-2 more years for something new but even if that new thing came to fruition I feel it will be something different and probably it won't be liked for many people, just the future will decided the fate of the IP and if Capcom was right to do it's IP scheme.
DeleteSelling off your merch proves nothing, it's just being a sheep. Great job on letting other people dictate your life.
DeleteI dunno, I've been considering selling off my collection.
Deletemega man really feels like a dead franchise at this point
@Erik, that's because it is dead and has been for a long time.
DeleteI need respect from an IP I choose to support and when I dont see that respect I go elsewhere and thats just basic self respect lol. Staying with an IP that's taking advantage of you is ludicrous it also hints towards desperation on a level socially but whatever the reason it's not healthy to stay with anything or anyone that won't show you proper respect to subject yourself to less is again hinting towards other unhealthy motives. And seeing as I've got more from selling then when I bought my collection yes I'd very much say it is win win lol and I'm in no need of extra cash I just moved my interest and investment something people with a lack of financial stability cant do as we all know. 😅 It's ok to be upset over your IP being "Forced" to die I know I was but if they intend to kill off a platformer IP because they can't mentally compete with Mario and Sonic and instead see more money from IPs with ■■■■ mods then that's what it will be because money matters more then effort and unfortunately fans made it that way when they stopped "expecting" effort in any form.
DeleteCensorship, huh?
DeleteTypical. Go ahead with the excuse admin. I didnt even say anything bad. You let trolls post day in, day out and censor THAT?
WOW. JUST WOW.
@3:41PM: First off, an IP doesn't "take advantage" of anyone, it's not capable of that. You can disagree with how the company that owns the IP treats it, as many on here do, but the brand itself does not have a life of its own.
DeleteGood for you for making money on your collection, but I just don't understand how someone "needs" new releases to stay a fan of something. Selling off a collection because a brand is "dead" according to your subjective criteria just reeks of impulsiveness, but you do you.
Finally, we all know you're the same person who comes on here talking ad-nauseum about how you've moved on from MM and how you're so much better for it, but yet even years later we still find you trolling news articles, which shows a level of immaturity and over-compensation, like you're trying to validate your feelings by belittling other fans and proving your (imagined) superiority. Grow up.
You know you sound upset for me making "pointless" comments and them meaning "nothing" I just find that odd there was more insult there then facts. 😅 And you found out it's "me" am I suppose to take that like a hammer blow lol? Sorry friend I dont have a phycological vulnerability like that shame on you for doing such things though and openly admiting you've used such tactics on others. Rather then try to be a common bully use facts it works much better. Now obviously an IP isn't "alive" I'm honestly wondering why I have to point this out but if I had a sign that said hugs n kisses and I kicked someone in the knee instead why that's me just falsely drawing others in for what I want and only luring them. It's the company itself and how they use the IP that make it what it is as I've just easily demonstrated with the sign being MegaMans image and the kick in the knee being capcoms open disrespect and obvious methods of taking advantage of others. You could just say it's "buisness" but "Good buisness" these days is mostly cheap products and lies and everyone knows no company will pay more for development of any product if they can get away with less again thats "just good buisnes" in their eyes. I honestly care less who knows me I'm RockBorne from Instagram I will never hide who I am because you can't shame me when I'm try to help others avoid being taken advantage of and you've been able to shame your way to victory before but that's not going to happen here. 🙂 If you wanted to know me you could have just asked lol but instead you tried to make me feel like less then a person and tried to openly shame me in hopes Id never come back if I'm that wrong about MegaMan something you clearly appreciate why would you openly be so aggressive? And don't say it's because you are tired of me lol. Fact is you know I'm right or you wouldn't act aggressive off the bat and acting with such buried animosity. I dont need to know you and it wouldn't bring me power if I did because I dont see that as a threat of any kind. 😋 And I come back to try and save others from wasting their money and time because facts is.. People mean more to me then an IP and MegaMan should have taught that to anyone who is a fan but it's clear you appreciate an IP more then people and thats your call but I appreciated the IP for more then just it's Skin so you and me can't mix because you've given up on others and again your choice but I'd rather be and make the difference especially if others are being taken advantage of because that's "not right" and thats how I see it so if you want to use some excuse like an IP can't do anything like the example above maybe try looking behind the sign? Taking a billion throat punches doesn't wake everyone up but it's not easy to watch either so don't make a shallow excuse instead talk about the guts of the situation and tell me how Capcom has not taken advantage of me and others and why I and others stepped away? Not interested? That's ok I expect an insult over that part not an actual answer. Also.. how am I superior when I'm trying to help others? Bit of a contradiction and as seen from our comments one of us cares the other well.. you can place that hotel anywhere on the board you want you dont really affect my life being thousands of miles away lol so hopefully you pick the right place for the right reasons for that piece. I expect nothing but insults for this or just not to be posted please don't be like Capcom and meet my expectations head on.👍
DeleteSo I shouldn't be a fan of cowboy bebop if it doesn't get new mainline content? Or does this weird need to continuously be stimulated by your favorite ip only apply to video games? I'm a hyper fan of a game series Quest for Glory and it hasn't had a game in decades. I do not understand this logic.
DeleteYou're comparing a story that ended versus one that didn't. That wasn't the guy's point anyway. It was about false advertising, manipulation and false hope.
DeleteNot a huge fan of X's X8 design, but I'll never complain when I see the ultimate armor (which I bet will be what draws in anyone to buying this) getting love. Also, 1/4th scale? That's huge. Can't wait to see videos showing these off once they come out.
ReplyDeleteThe ultimate armor looks great, with how few figures exist of it I'm honestly strongly considering it even though I'm not really into statues.
DeleteThere should not be wings on both the backpack AND the buster... Ultimate Armor doesn't work that way. That would bug me (if they don't come off)
ReplyDeleteHuh, never noticed that. Hopefully there’s an alternate backpack, or at least the figure looks okay without the backpack. Wingless buster seems unnecessary IMO, I doubt X has the buster out while doing Nova Strike.
DeleteI like the exoskeleton of the figure as it's rare you see it anymore since maybe the first couple games. Otherwise I wouldn't know where to put it or what to do with it. Neat though.
ReplyDeleteInternal exoskeleton..... so an endoskeleton
ReplyDelete“Lions?! There are sea lions on land??”
Delete“Sure! We call ‘em ‘land sea lions.’”
