Mega Man X Makes A Much Cooler Statue Than The Original

Back is September, First 4 Figures revealed thefirst in their new line of Mega Man statues. It was nice, if a bit too Astro Boy for my tastes. Now the company unveils its first Mega Man X statue. That’s more like it.

Not that I have anything against the original Mega Man. He’s an adorable little robot scamp that made me feel like a total badass when I was much younger than I am now. But X from Mega Man X? He’s tall and sleek and stylish. He’s just so much cooler.

That’s not always a good thing. You see Mega Man coming at you and you’re all ā€œOh look, it’s an adorable little robot boy. He’s so cute! Why is his arm glowing? OH GOD.ā€ On the other hand (I know there’s just one hand), X shows up and you’re already ducking behind futuristic boxes and begging for your futuristic life. Futuristic.

And then X does this, and you admire his form as you’re blasted into pieces.

And those LED lights! Not a Dr. Light original, ironically enough, but pretty damn cool. They go all the way up, from his feet to his X Buster to his helmet, adding up to 17 inches of glowing blue bomber.

The X statue is now up for preorder over at First 4 Figures for $260, with an expected ship date somewhere in the third quarter of 2015. The run is limited to 1,000 pieces. The coolness knows no bounds.
