The Video Game Memorabilia Museum Examines Rockman 4 & Powered Up Plushes
Over the years, we have seen a pretty decent number of representations of Mega Man in plastic form, be they action figures or model kits, from every single series to bear the name “Mega Man.” All said, though there are still many characters we would like to see who have not gotten the plastic treatment, the business has been pretty good to the Blue Bomber.
Considerably rarer, however, are plush toys. Recently, Nightram56 of the Video Game Memorabilia Museum has managed to dig some up. And many of these are nothing recent– they are based on 1991′s Rockman 4, which means they are about two decades old.
Check it out:
A Pharaoh Man plush? That is nothing short of awesome, though the rest are great, too. But who is with us in thinking that perhaps the Met is the most desirable of the set?
Word was that you could find the Mega Man Powered Up plush (which looks more like a standard Mega Man, if you ask us) at various theme parks, and sometimes even claw machines. But since the game was released in 2006, five years ago, they have apparently become a lot more rare, given the $50-$100 eBay asking prices Nightram56 says they have. So if you have one, you might want to hang on to it.

Nah, I’ve seen those pop up on eBay for way less. Expect that big one, ok that one’s price is ok considering how big it is. But the ones listed are those who want to be a part of those who list their junk for high thinking that it’s rare, like those stupid Jazware Inc figures. Like that $300 set a few days ago. But nah, they’re not rare, just over priced.
Not only I want a Turret plushie from Portal, but I also want that Met plushie as well! ^_^ They’re so cute. ^^
So much plushies… I collect plushies every now and then and keep them as decoration to brighten my nerd cave granted it ain’t much right now ,but someday more decoration to honor my nerdiness!
That Met plush looks very cute indeed. If someone designed a Servbot plush, I don’t think I’d be able to restrain myself…
My favorites definitely the Pharaoh Man one. It’s always cool when a random robot master gets some special treatment. Helps that he’s one of my favorites anyway.
What’s that song at the end? Sounds like a Cave Story/Megaman mashup.
@Sketchman3:
That’s from the Wily Wars for the Sega Genesis.
I have that Powered Up plush he had:

I found him back in May (this year), at Six Flags Great Adventure, in Jackson Township, NJ. There were quite a few, so if anyone’s in the area it may be something worth checking out.
Didn’t realize he went for $50+ though. Crazy considering I got mine for less than $5. =p
