Honestly, I'm not that emotionally invested in Megaman as a franchise, as my only exposure to the character was in the '90's cartoon and his recurring role on the Captain N series years before that. I do like the look of this line though, so I will be getting it.
Interesting look for the character. It's updated but still holds to the classic. I like it.
Megaman I can't resist myself ?

The overall design of this one is terrible in comparison (imo) and in hating the design of the character, hating the figure. The toy itself however looks very generic but these are obviously geared more towards children as Im sure the show is as well. Id imagine they are trying to reinvent something from the past to appeal to kids of today just like many 80s properties have been doing in the past 10-20 years.
The style kinda reminds me of a show that use to run on Toonami years ago, Code Lyoko. I never followed the series as it wasnt ofany interest to me. Didnt help that its art style didnt appeal to me either.

Drill Man looks hilarious! He'd be a good fit for a cartoon Sonic display maybe. . . Get four or five of them and pose them up with Sonic. Could be cool!

I personally think the figures look kinda cool, and look forward to getting them. Then again, my toy-shelf is a world where Ducktales live side-by-side with Marvel Legends, so what do I know.
Ive never seen the new show and have nothing to say on its quality or lack thereof. Same goes for the toyline, I have no opinion on the figures themselves.My criticism is based solely on the appearance of Megaman. This one justdoesnt work for me and Imopen to different variations of Megaman, loved the classic series, X, and Legends designs.
I think the figures look good they are not something I would collect but they look good for what they are. That said I'm not a fan of all of the designs, some of the enemies look cool but I'm not loving Mega Man's design. To be honest I didn't even know that this show existed I might check it out now.

Yea, I have to echo those above who arent that fond of the design of these figures... The Mega Man figure itself looks like it took the original design and threw it into a blender with Ben 10 and Voltron style animation, and a cartoon kid cosplaying Mega Man is what came out of it. But, what can ya do? The entertainment industry has to keep trying to reinvent the wheel.
