Looks Like Bass is Getting the D-Arts Treatment (Treble Too!)
Good morning, fellow Mega Man fans. How about a little bit of figure news that may blow your minds? Check out this top pic of D-Arts Mega Man from Bandai. Pretty nice, eh? But who’s that to the left? Who could that-yeah okay it’s pretty Bass. I mean how could that not be Bass?
Details are still very much obscure as I write this up, but more should come with the opening of the Tamashii Nations 2012 exhibition (this photo is a preview shot). Naturally we will continue looking for more info. Stay tuned as always!
UPDATE: New pictures added direct from Tamashii Nations! Hit the jump for more, including Black Zero and the Sigma and Ride Armor prototypes.
UPDATE 2: Many more great pics can be seen on Rockman Unity. Thanks, Ucchy-san!

…no one noticed that PINKU Mega Man in the back?
Of course I’m more excited for Bass though. But I’d purchase PINK Mega too.
)
Lies, it’s just Pharaoh Man painted black….
YES!
I’m so happy they didn’t pick Protoman. I love the guy, but we already have Kotobukiya for that, I want new stuff!
Oh wow the models are arranged like X5′s intro. That’s awesome.
I guess next will be Blues with Beat and Eddie. I’ll buy them all
TREBLE
HELL-FREAKING YES!!! I’ve waited so long for an awesome Bass fig, now I’m finally getting one! I swear, between this, the X series, and soon to be Legends, this line keeps getting better and better! Now hopefully we can get Duo, Protoman, and maybe Roll.
Oh! My! God! They actually listened???! They made Bass with Treble???! Oh HELL yes! SOLD!!!!! Would of been better if it could combine… But SOLD!!!
But still way cool!
I think those varity colored Megas are just for display.
Bad Ass!
It’d be awesome if Treble could transform into Bass’s armor.
Purdy.
At least Bass looks good!
At first, I was amazed that a Bass figure was made. After a bit, however, I let the whole picture sink in. TREBLE?!?!?!?! When have we ever seen a Treble figure like this?
I came dude… like 3 times with this…
I love the fact that they’re recreating Sensei’s X5 flashbacks with these things. Also, love the X-Hunter background piece.
Much as I’m still hoping for Volnutt, a nice Bass figure is pretty sweet news. I was hoping Kotobukiya would do one for scale reasons, but hopefully this will be close enough.
Bass is cool and all….but that Treble looks super sexy. I wants it.
@Megafan: I can see the instructions for that now…
Step 1: Put away your Treble figure.
Step 2: Attach these wings and other pieces to Bass.
Step 3: Make sure no one sees Treble around while Bass is like this.
About darn damn fricken time. How long did this take before we got a Bass and treble figure.
OMG! freaking awesome! finally an awesome Forte action figure! and the the goddamn TREBLE too! Take my money NOW Bandai!
it looks that bandai actually listened to the poll, Bass was ranked 4th i think.
Finally Bass and Treble!!!!! I’M THROWING MY MONEY AT THE SCREEN BUT NOTHING IS HAPPENING!
“Many more great pics can been”
This sentence was about to be a nice grammar-burger, but then someone mashed the buns together.
YES
FINALLY
so… no one pointing out that the colorful megas are based of his MM7 weapons?
I’m confused by the placement of the mega mans. I feel like they should be in the same spots as the original robot masters. Also, I’m assuming one of the blue looking mega mans are actually grey for junk shield.
Did they attempt to correct Zero Type 2′s stiffness issue?
@Gaia
Nope!
@Phaelin: Gimme a break. I was up until one bringing you this awesome news.
They just keep making themselves better.
i would have pefervd sigma but mybe soon?
Dude, if that Bass comes with a swappable ‘crazy laugh’ face/head I am so there.
@ Megafan
Now how would you even know that? Quit being pessimistic. It’s been too long of seeing lousy comments like yours.
YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYEYSYEYSYEYSYEYSYEYSYEYSYEYSYEYYSYEYSYESYYES!!!!!!!

Just got to enjoy the enthusiasm in the Rock Unity posts every time.
OH MY GOD. BASS! My favorite character in the Classic series! Woohoo! XD
great… hoping for Roll next, with interchangeable clothes like kotobukiya
While Treble looks awesome, it looks as though Bass is a bit on the short side.
It’s been shown in most media that Bass is taller than the Blue Bomber, so I hope that this is only a prototype & not the possibility of being the final product.
Clown Prince wins the internet. Everyone go home.
I knew it they would make bass and treble. Finally an action figure of treble. Next Protoman with who ? beat and tango or eddie? why not an auto action figure with roll. it would be fun to see a 2pack of dr.Wily and Dr.Light
Bass and Treble finally!!! shut up and take my zenny bandai!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS
I think it’s weird that nobody seems to make the slightest mention of all the colored Mega Mans in the background. I don’t really expect them to become figures, but they still seem noteworthy.
@Nerdword
LOL! Just stating the obvious. DUH!
But still TREBLE!!! God I love how Treble face is! Thats treble alright! Looks like he will have the same articulation like Rush. Hmmm… I might consider getting two sets of Bass and Mega and custom articulate Rush and Treble. But TREBLE!!!!!
just the way they positioned the X figures… freaking awesome! Reminiscing X5′s intro. :3
first Megaman game i ever played. Must have that Sigma!
personally, I prefer the Rockman & Forte SNES art style of bass with the darker skin tone. makes him look more unique, and his armor looks better. but they do seem to be going for the MM7 look
YEESS….awww, anti-wave man beat me to it.
All i need to see is a D-arts Protoman and a Duo figure and my life will be complete…. Bass and treble look so sick u cant wait to add these to my collection!
I hope they will do some of the robot masters. I mean there are a ton of them out there so why not?
I saw some of these at New York Comic Con. definitely getting the Ride Armor…..maybe Black Zero, and possibly Sigma.
