Fans picked up on some footage from the Mega Man animated series during the weekend. Film Roman shared the first look, but it wasn’t intended for public consumption. Dentsu Entertainment informed Rockman Corner that the footage wasn’t final, and was based on internal animation tests.
Mega Man’s look in the show is apparently still evolving. The design shown in the clip doesn’t represent the final product.
One other note: despite what we heard previously, the Mega Man animated series doesn’t have a set network. It isn’t guaranteed to air on Disney XD.

Update: Despite Best Buy’s original listing, the figure is actually created by First 4 Figures. The listing (as well as our post) has now been updated to reflect this. Best Buy’s page also now shows a release date of early March rather than March 20.
Original: Dark Horse will soon be coming out with a special Link figurine that was created based on his appearance in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It’s 11 inches high, and features a sculpted base.
The figurine won’t be ready for Breath of the Wild’s launch, though it won’t be too long before it’s out. Best Buy, which is taking pre-orders, has it down for March 20.
We’ve included a few photos of the figure below.
