Mandalorian32 revisits the toys that spawned from the US Mega Man animated series that ran in the early 90s.All in all, the toys really weren't that bad in terms of quality, except for the questionable change that came from making Mega Man look like a weirdly buff teenager. I personally dug the Cutman and Gutsman figures. As proof of their hardiness, my Gutsman is still rattling around in my kids' toy box. He's a little battered and scraped, but still eminently play-with-able.

Fun fact: I was involved in script approvals for the Mega Man, Street Fighter and Darkstalkers cartoons that we licensed back in ye olden days.

Funner Fact: the simplistic theme song ("Super fighting robots! Mega Man!" repeatedly over and over) was picked because the Power Rangers had broken big about the same time the Mega Man cartoon launched and the producers wanted to feed off the success of that show -- including the brain-dead "Go go, Power Rangers!" theme -- as much as possible. To this day, old school Capcomers will still occasionally burst out into the Mega Man theme when talking about the games.
