I see blowout. Invisible Man was one of my least favorite Mimps as a kid, though now I appreciate him a bit more, at the time he was a major reason I didn't buy more packs of the little guys, I didn't need more than one of him.

Also Mega Man Mech are super duper awesome.

I have to agree. I didn't like Invisible Man at first either, but I took a good look at him he actually became one of my favorite MIMP's. It is just an inspired design for an Invisible Man figure.

Unfortunately he has run up against some pretty serious competition. I will say this, this is probably the weakest of the Mechs – but that doesn't make it a bad figure. For me, this Mechs strength is the driver in coordination with the Mech. It just really looks like he's controlling this machine.

While it won't happen in this round, this is the Mega Man Mech that I can see being beat. My vote is for Mega Man Mech C.

(Does anyone know the names of these figures?!?!) :D

Mega Man sculpts are going to own this tournament. This one is so freakin cool, where do i start? That little dude looks like he is just about to manipulate those controls which will cause those gigantic mechanical fists to come crashing down on some unfortunate persons head. The detail on the little guy is great, the way the fists are sculpted on the mech is great. The figure just owns poor little invisible man.

Poor little invisible man is such a difficult concept to capture in an LRG i think they did an ok job though - he does look kinda effin weird though :D

The invisible guy looks like a figure who some kid cut all his arms and head off. Maybe one of Tortles crazy experiments or something. I'm not a big mimp fan to begin with, but this figure is absolute crap!!!

These mega man bots are effing sweet, next time I go to Japan, I am going on a huge hunt for them because I think htey are awesome. Very detailed for as tiny as they are. Very fun looking.

One of the lamest MIMP sculpts, versus one the best Megaman sculpts? No brainer. I am guessing that you have to either have a serious hard on for MIMP or just plain hate Megaman to vote for the invisible guy.

This is my favorite mech yet! This is Megaman himself working the controls of the Basic Power Armor common throughout the X series. I can't remember if it's called Power Armor for sure though. But yeah....who was the other figure in this round again? :D

I love the Invisible Man MIMP, i always have. Unfortunately, that is hands-down the coolest Megaman figure in the tournament so far. These mechs are going to be unstoppable.

i wonder if we're a little biased toward the mega man sculpts because this is the first time a lot of us have seen them. don't get me wrong, it think they're totally boss, but one does wonder if we're just a little excited with something small, rubber & new. veers is prolly right. this doesn't seem to be the coolest out of the few we've seen so far and it will drop shortly into the tournament. those pilots alone could stand up to some of the stinkers we've seen so far.

what is the size of these mech figures? are they impossibly tiny like the necro's fortress figures?

soupie, could you post a pick of one next to a quarter or a muscle so we can see the size comparison?

They've been better than their competition so far, but I'm willing to bes tthat a Megaman sculpt will not win in the end.

I don't know maybe it's the great pictures that make the difference. Great lighting that reflects the awesome crystal yellow, and the insane contrast of the solid neon colored mini drivers. That Green Megaman in there is soooo freakin awesome.

oh come on, how is this even fair?!?
:)

i LOVE MIMPs but how is some least desirable less than 50 cent figure that every MIMP collector has doubles of supposed to compete with the best figures from the megaman line that usually go for $100+
?!?!?

its not even close. like showing up to a nuclear war armed with nothing more than a can of spinach.
:D

i voted MIMP anyway. out of principle.

only if you want to buy them. ;)

no, all smartass remarks aside, i think someone mentioned that they go for pretty steep. i don't know if that's for the fleshies, or the ones like this one. supposedly the fleshies are the higher dollar sculpts.
