Mega Man collectors, the ultimate rival has arrived! The team at threezero has officially expanded its critically acclaimed 1/12 scale die-cast hybrid line with the reveal of the Mega Man MDLX Bass (known as Forte in Japan) action figure.
First debuting in Mega Man 7 as Dr. Wily's specialized weapon designed to outperform the blue bomber, Bass is getting a stunning modern translation. This release infuses the classic 8-bit retro aesthetic with threezero's signature mechanical complexity, layered panel lines, and high-end articulation.
Premium Engineering & Splendid Energy Effects
Standing at approximately 4 inches tall (10 cm), the MDLX Bass features threezero’s signature hybrid construction pairing a die-cast metal inner frame with engineer-grade plastic joints. This provides a heavy, high-quality hand feel and intense joint stability when putting him into wide combat stances.
The figure features his iconic sleek black-and-gold armor colorway, a vibrant blue torso gem, and a sharp finned helmet design. To bring his video game battles alive, threezero has packed this release with an exceptional set of parts:
- Two Swappable Faceplates: Easily switch between a confident standard look and an intense, open-mouthed screaming battle expression.
- Interchangeable Forearms: Swap out his standard arms to attach his signature Bass Buster arm cannon on either the left or right side.
- Massive Energy Blast: Includes a huge translucent energy projectile effect that mounts directly onto the muzzle of his buster.
- Hidden Magnetic Soles: Just like prior releases in the line, his boots contain hidden internal magnets allowing him to adhere directly to metallic display surfaces!
(Note: threezero is releasing a standard edition alongside a web-exclusive Special Edition version that swaps the single projectile for a devastating triple-shot charging effect).
