Imagine some Megaman LEGO's, being able to build places like Dr. Lights Lab and Maverick Hunter HQ. Truly any longtime fan or someone who loves LEGO's dream come true.
The set looks cool, yes, but I think that a larger scale set would be more appropriate-at least for a Wily Castle set. I do think a smaller set would be a good start for a Mega Man series, my only concern is how combersome the Robot Master Minifigures' arms might become. Imagine trying to do that with Guts Man. If they want detail on the Robot Masters, then perhaps it may be better to have sets more like the Bionicle/Hero Factory series. Or even something in between like the Knight's Kingdom series. Regardless, that is a cool find.
Yeah a lot of characters might look a little awkward. I'm mainly looking at characters like Gutsman, Knightman, and Sigma. There's probably a lot more that will, or could. Heck, somehow these guys might look fine as LEGO's. We can't tell for sure until they start releasing them. Like you said, they should start out with smaller sets and see if consumers are interested, and if they are, move on to bigger greater sets like Wily's Castle. Because let's be honest that set would be both huge, and would cost at least $100. Maybe a small collection of shortened versions of the first 6 robot masters stages would be good for a first seller?
A few ideas I have:
- Vile Ultrabuild: Zamor Sphere launcher on left shoulder, with flick-fire missiles on right knee and right wrist. Also includes optional jet flares for display.
- Sky Lagoon Escape: Zero, Iris, and Magma Dragoon minifigures, along with a Ride Chaser.
- Final Duel: Zero minifigure battles a huge brick-built Dr. Weil in an arena.
- Zero Ultrabuild: MMX1 design, gear slash function+Zamor Sphere launcher.
- Tron Bonne's Trouble: Volnutt, Caskett, Tron, and Servbot minifigures, Tron's MVC2 mech, and a small building.
- Hunt for the Biometals: Grey, Ashe, and Condorock minifigures in a ruin with traps.
- Dr. Light's Lab: Rock, Roll, Light, Rush, Splash Woman, Tango, Auto, Blues, and X are all included in this prestige set of the iconic lab.
- Mega Man To the Rescue: Mega Man, in his Super Adaptor, has to save Light from Wily.
