Kickstarter Revitalizes the Action Figure Scene with NewCapcom Figure

If you're feeling mega-ready for something new in the Capcom universe, check out the Kickstarterlaunched by TruForce Collectibles to produce a new, officially licensed Mega Man X figure!

We're thrilled to see a new figure coming out for Mega Manwith incredible design and detail for the price. With a new, stylized design for X from Mega Man X,TruForce will provide a sleek and mechanized look. As a brand-new manufacturer, TruForce isstarting off strong with an outstanding plan to create this epic Mega Man X figure.

The figure is fully poseable with over 30 differentpoints of articulation and comes with swappable faceand hand pieces. Utilizing diecast techniques, X willinclude diecast armor parts for the chest, shins, andfeet. On top of his interchangeable pieces, X comeswith combine-able effects components. The 6-inchfigure will also have LED functionality and comes witha base and support stand.

Not only will he feature smooth blues, fluorescent accents, and ruby gems (for the helmet), but theeffects parts can be combined! The effect pieces are separated into three parts, meaning you canconnect just two or put all three together for a mega blast! These pieces will be cast in yellowtranslucent plastic, so attached to the cannon with working LEDs, the blast will have a glowingeffect as though it's charging.

TruForce Collectibles understands the need for detailed, articulated figures so we're excited to seethat Mega Man is being made by the fans for the fans:

As true fans ourselves, we know what it takes to produce a quality collectible...we meticulously payattention to the nitty gritty details and we don't settle for anything less than the best.

Currently, all 3D mock-ups have been completed as well as a non-painted prototype. Next up is anapproval of the painted prototype and running the production gambit of mold creation, materialinjection, paint, assembly, packaging, and shipping.
