That amazing design was painted with the tears of Mega Man fans... Happy fucking April Fools to you as well, Capcom.

Jeez Capcom, you're bringing it upon yourself now. Inafune has already moved on.
 
While I'm certainly not getting my hopes up, it isn't unheard of for Capcom to take an april fool's joke and make it real. Just look at ZX Gigamix.

I kinda hope it's true, because that's a fucking awesome design. It would be perfect for an X sequel/reboot.

Wait, I'm confused. Is this an actual product that they've just announced, or it is just an elaborate April Fools Day joke?

Not to ruin the joke, but the product details reveals all:

Size: 4/1 scale
Material: Titanium-X
Price: 4.1 million Zenny
APIF model number: SHVC19931217RX
Release date: April 1st, 21XX
NOTE: Special modeling kit nippers needed to penetrate Titanium-X. Basic welding and electrical skills are required.

It's an elaborate joke that wastes an awesome design, satisfies nobody, and angers everybody. The size alone should clue you in. :(

If this becomes real it's because Capcom went into damage control mode over the backlash.

That's a bummer, as I would've been down with ordering this model kit to put together. It would've gone nicely with my Kotobukiya Mega Man, Roll, & Protoman kits.

(Also, hasn't Capcom Japan learned by now that doing this is just going to aggravate fans?)

...So this isn't a new Mega Man X game? FU Capcom :(, loved the original MMX and MMX4 along with the classic series and seeing those great games get no new installments due to Crapcom begin pricks is just so messed up :(.

At least Infune is still making Mega Man-esc games with Mighty No. 9 and the upcoming 3DS game by the Mega Man Zero guys, so we still get some good old Mega Man goodness, even if Mega Man isn't there.

That design for X looks really cool...such a shame that it's never going to be used. Maybe in the next Capcom Vs. game, that will be Zero's DLC costume!!!! ....this is just sad man :(
