Month: December 2010

The Olympics continue, and this time we’re faced with the appropriately themed Quick Man stage, where Ucchy-san and jgonzo must compete in the more sportmanslike 100 meter dash. Will jgonzo further his lead, or will Ucchy-san tie things up again? Can you believe we’re actually only halfway through this nonsense? And to recap, stage 1, […]

Over at the Rockman Online blog, Alia was about to wish all the hunters a happy new year, when suddenly the transmission was hacked and this came through: Young masses, a new revolution is drawing near! The sun you all knew from long ago has disappeared beneath the horizon. As the new year dawns, everything […]

For the Mega Man fan wanting a softer approach to robot baddies, Etsy seller RabbitHollow has a plush Bomb Bat available for… B.. Bomb Bat? BOMB BAT?? It is called a BATTON you ignorant unwashed #$*&@#!!!… *huff* *huff* Ok… Yes, you can buy the Batton plush. There is also a Metool METALL available as well. […]

We’ve heard the rumors, and we’ve seen the plans. Now, at long last, those who have eagerly awaited the chance to order their very own Kotobukiya Mega Man figures have their chance! Well, almost; “pre-orders” are what Entertainment Earth is taking for the Kotobukiya versions of Mega Man, his sister Roll, and his mysterious older […]

Well, this is nothing short of a bit embarrassing on my part. As you may recall, we told you back in August that to celebrate the release of Mega Man Megamix to a North American audience, UDON was bringing its creator, Hitoshi Ariga, over for FanExpo Canada. There, he would meet and greet fans, as […]

Here’s an interesting bit of news. Wedge Holdings, who currently publishes Rockman Megamix and Gigamix in Japan, plans to pick up Shigeto Ikehara’s Rockman 7 manga. This, at least, according to online Japanese retailer BK1. The manga originally ran for three volumes in 1995 and 1996 under Comic Bombom. It’s unknown now if this is […]

Previously, Archie Comics co-Chief Executive Officer Jon Goldwater had stated that they were looking at a May 2011 release for their upcoming Mega Man comic. But now, a new teaser appears to reveal that fans will be able to get equipped with the first issue a little sooner than that. TMMN Staff

It’s quite late in the month, but then it’s better late than never. According to Kotobukiya’s own online shop, the Roll model kit (happy HP? :p) is officially on sale as of now, December 27th. Though I’ve yet to see anything show up in my e-mail, you can probably expect notices of shipment any time […]

Following the first two events, Ucchy-san and jgonzo come into the third competition tied. So, who will take the lead now in Air Man’s themed third competition: jumping like Mega Man! Wait, really? Not for height or distance or anything? This doesn’t seem very… sport-like. If this all seems totally weird to you, be sure […]

Back in August, members of The Mega Man Network, Stardroids.net, and Rockman.EXE Online gathered at Otakon to host a panel called “The Anime & Manga Realm of Mega Man,” in which we took a look back at the Blue Bomber’s history in both comic and animated form, from both sides of the Pacific. There was […]

Here’s a curious treat. So far as I’m aware, this is the first video footage to be taken of Rockman Tennis, one of many cell phone Rockman games released exclusively in Japan. The game lets you play as Rockman, Roll, Blues, Cut Man, Wood Man and Shadow Man, plus Rockman X is a downloadable character. […]

As a small token of Christmas cheer at the Rockman Online blog, Alia presents this piece of artwork done up by one of the artists of the Hunter Agency who recently finished up his normal duties (they really do push the immersive thing with this). It’s meant to depict the stalwart Hunters in action. Personally […]
