DOUBLAS M-2.

 

IN MUSCLE FORM.

 

I need these YESTERDAY.

[stoffhimel]

oh great. my wallet was not ready for this.

 

on a side note, I now have "super fighting robot" stuck in my head.

[fisheye]

Ok I need these now. I'm happy they're really pumping these figures out. Now that I'v seen the Mega Man figures, I can't wait to see the Ghouls and Ghost figures.

As a big fan of Nintendo mega man games... no.

Just, nope.

Here is a link from Toyark more MUSCLE figures coming from Super 7

Why not?

[ironmask]

Yo, those The Worst figures are the best looking so far.

Why not?

I hate everything about them. The proportion is all off... Cutman breaks my heart. I needed that Cutman to not suck.

[stoffhimel]

ooh. theres even a yellow devil! not in the picture, mind you, but its name is barely noticeable on the card...

[bigazzhead]

I have a very nice megaman keshi collection, but since they never did a megaman 1 collection, I will have to buy these. But the megaman sculpt leaves room for impovement.

[spiderearth]

Yeah, the proportions certainly have the look that they are MUSCLE characters in Mega Man cosplay.  If you're looking to expand your MUSCLE collection further, I suppose this isn't particularly a deal breaker.  All your classic and Super7 will fit together, but yeah, stand-alone a good amount of them are a bit too thin.

I was kind of hoping for squatty almost SD looking dudes, to reflect their looks in the classic games.

[WendyW]

I like 'em.

 

Honestly I don't expect any Muscle line to stay particularly on model with the source material because it never really has. The original figures don't generally follow the proportions of the Kinnikuman characters very well at all. Super 7's figs generally seem about as accurate as the originals.

I am happy to see a third MOTU set as that is the franchise they're doing that I'm most interested in so far, but jeez, those sculpts look even more over-exaggerated than the second set. Those giant hands are killin' me.

 

It does look like they are doing the Alien figures in different colors via those foil bags, which I'm happy about. I was holding out buying any Alien ones to see if they'd do more colors.

[BaltanII]

The first time around I didn't really pay any attention to the Mega-Man figures because... eff that, there's Mazinger villains as MUSCLE figures sitting RIGHT THERE. Why would I care about the blue bomber instead?

 

Now that I do... yeah, they honestly look uglier than the other lines Super7 has done, right up there with the third series of MOTU sculpts. Both doctors, Bomb Man, and Cut Man really stand out as the losers among the bunch, and given that this toyline is actually showing love to more than two Robot Masters that is a real shame.

[Rubberhammer]

Okay, after looking through all those pics, I can honestly say that those The Worst figs would probably be the only ones that I would pick up.

And, something be seriously wrong with Mega Mans neck, but he still doesn't suck as bad as Meckaneck.

Funny, you would say "suck"...

But they needed the money.

[Maxrez]

Even if i'm not a fan of this concept, the mazinger ones are tempting.

Yeah I'm looking forward to aliens and the worst. The megaman figures look awful.

[KingJefferson]

I dont understand the hate, i love them all

[fisheye]

I dont understand the hate, i love them all

I'm with you on that. I welcome all of these figures. 

[BaltanII]

Ehh, money saved on some inferior figures is never a bad thing in my book.

 

Speaking of inferior... interesting. The card for the Mega Man series names 12 figures, the expected number for the way they're released, and 12 figures are displayed, but none of them are Yellow Devil. You get giraffe and non-giraffe flavors of Mega Man instead. Guess the Devil got cut to push the main character a little more, kinda like two different xeno sculpts in the Alien series?

Interesting. But why would they leave it on the card? That makes it seem like a last minute decision. Surely they would have decided on this way before the event or the making of the display.

[bigazzhead]

Hmm after looking through all the pics I'm definitely down for many of these. I hope The worst gets released in multicolor packs straight away. I think there are more hits than misses in all the sculpts, Megaman probably has the most misses, but I'll probably pick some up for the Series 1 robot masters and Gameboy characters.
