Image & Form has prepared a new episode for its series known as “The Engine Room” – watch it below.

This time around, the studio tackles the topic of amiibo. To put it simply, Image & Form is interested in making a SteamWorld amiibo happen, but there would be a lot of work involved. They do want to continue to see fans support the idea, and they encourage everyone to share their own ideas for what the figure would look like and how it would function.

February 27 is a big day for Pokemon given that it’s the series’ 20th anniversary. To celebrate, several activities are planned, including an event at Nintendo NY.

Here’s the rundown

New Nendoroids based on the Red and Blue trainers from Pokemon is slated for July. One for Red had been previously released, but this latest model is based on his inclusion in FireRed and LeafGreen and more closely matches the art of the original game.

Both Nendoroids will be sold in a special bundle for 7,500 yen. Each comes with two face parts and two feet parts. Blue has six different arm parts while Red has five. Blue beats out Red yet again. Mew is also included, and you can change around his parts as well. Other accessories like Pokeballs and a backpack are also in the package.

These Nendoroids are due out on July 9. Reservations open on July 9. Product will be limited, as they’ll only be available at Japanese Pokemon Centers and Amazon Japan.
