From The Mega Man Network:
Rockman Mini Figures Close Up, and Import Solutions – And they apparently double as key chains, so you can call him the “Blue Blinger!” Wait, do key chains count as jewelery?
UDON Breaks Out BN and SF Official Complete Works Preview – Say what you want about the gameplay, but the art is still pretty awesome.
Mega Man Legends 3: Still Not Greenlit? – Looks like we’re not in the clear just yet, folks.
Mega Man: Case Zero? – Not only has something similar been done before, but Capcom may be aiming to do it again.
Free Archie Mega Man Posters for PAX East Attendees (with a Slight Catch) – No subscription necessary (though they are still most welcome)!
Let’s Have a Listen to Aero – Now that I hear her speak, she sounds more like a “Sephira,” after all. Change it back, Capcom.

On an unrelated note, is anyone playing Lil Pirates? Looking for some people to join my League of Captains here, as I need a larger boat.
