Kotobukiya shared more prototype images for its upcoming Mega Man X, Axl, Sigma, and Bass model kits from Capcom’s Mega Man metaseries. All of them appeared at the 62nd Shizuoka Hobby Show held in May 2024.
The first two kits revealed are the Mega Man X7 debutant Axl and an enhanced version of Mega Man X. Axl will appear in his default attire, while X will don the Max Armor from Mega Man X3 while using the Triad Thunder special weapon.
The prototypes for both kits have been fully painted, and Kotobukiya will gradually open pre-orders for each of them in the coming days.
At the same time, Kotobukiya also published unpainted prototypes of Sigma and the Battle Network character Bass.EXE. The company has made progress on both characters’ model kits ever since it made the initial announcements in February 2024. However, these kits will take more time until release since their prototypes have not been painted yet.
The Reploids X, Axl, and Sigma appear in the Mega Man X series, while Bass.EXE is a NetNavi who appeared in the Mega Man Battle Network series. Capcom has released Legacy Collections for both series on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC worldwide. The Mega Man X Legacy Collection is also available on Xbox One.
