We have obtained never-before-seen materials for an undeveloped '90s Mega Man anime... OR a very early incarnation of the Ruby Spears cartoon.
We will be scanning these pieces for EVERYONE to enjoy. Researching their history is on the agenda, too.
Thank you, everyone! https://t.co/1qKBJdX1ZP pic.twitter.com/VBTYZdAlHk
Mega Man has seen numerous cartoon adaptations over the years ranging from serious to cheesy. While Mega Man fans know all about those projects, some brand-new assets from an unnamed 1990s project have just been discovered.
It's unclear whether the artwork above is for an anime that never saw release, or was meant as early artwork for the eventual 1990s Mega Man cartoon. Either way, this is the very first time we've gotten a look at these pieces of art. A neat part of Mega Man history!
