Disturbing Rockman 2 Original Art (It's not what you think it is)

[KyoKusanagi]

I don't see this anywhere on the forums, so.......



This promo art may not look so bad at first, but stop to look at what Mega Man
is doing. He's ripping out Wood Man's guts...with his hands! Man, that is absolutely brutal. Screw the Mega Buster, I'm going to pull him apart with my bare fists!

Found At GoNintendo

I'm not sure which is more scary: Rock ripping Woodman apart or Dr. Wily the alien?

[Acid]

Holy [parasitic bomb].



Wily is Nosferatu.

[Strider Xhaiden]

Wily the alien. Without a doubt. Badass Rockman is awesome.

[Rad Lionheart]

That's how he gets their powerups! He yanks them out of their chest cavity, and voila! Leaf shield!

[The Great Gonzo]

I'll just reiterate what I said over at Capcom Unity:

You know, this ad reflects how American gamers probably saw Megaman at the time (and the box art didn't help). To us he was a mook-mangling machine (in the literal and figurative sense); since the NES games didn't get dialogue until 3 (and then only at the very end), how did we know that he was capable of remorse?

On the other hand, I love Bubbleman's redesign. Wily's, not so much.

[borockman]

I'm scared of that Wily... T_T

[Alice in Entropy]

Yeesh. That's some disturbing [parasitic bomb] right there. o_o;

[Nexus]

Huh, Wood Man's even crying. 

Anywho, even if it's long before it's time, doesn't Mega look alot like X there? >.>

[Acid]

Oh god I just noticed this...



Poor Wood Man  ;_;

[Asvel]

Oh god I just noticed this...



Poor Wood Man  ;_;

His lips.

...;__;

[Rad Lionheart]

Wood Man's lips are creepy.

[Flame]

woodmans FACE is creepy in general.

Holy [parasitic bomb].



Wily is Nosferatu.

my thoughts exactly.
also, I LOVE megamans redesign.  it rocks. (no pun intended.)

[Dr. Wily II]

Interesting piece of art there...
Wily...
Wily... And nice knowing you Wood Man... ;_;

[Bag of Magic Food]

Where did this picture come from?  A magazine ad?

He's ripping out Wood Man's guts...with his hands! Man, that is absolutely brutal. Screw the Mega Buster, I'm going to pull him apart with my bare fists!

Maybe that was the OLD way of stealing weapons, before he learned how to jump and suck balls out of the walls.

I'm not sure which is more scary: Rock ripping Woodman apart or Dr. Wily the alien?

Dr. Wily's alien form?  You mean that shadow in the corner?  Although his "normal" form already looks pretty scary there, with his pointy ears and all.

I'll just reiterate what I said over at Capcom Unity:

You know, this ad reflects how American gamers probably saw Megaman at the time (and the box art didn't help). To us he was a mook-mangling machine (in the literal and figurative sense);

That's how I still see him.

Anywho, even if it's long before it's time, doesn't Mega look alot like X there? >.>

The plain round shoulders make me think of Megaman Trigger.  But then he has the yellow straps on his helmet like EXE or the first Megaman box art...

[Successor]

Dang, that's awesome!  Thanks for sharing it.

[Flok]

AWESOME original art! Looks like Mega Man is in for some serious business. Oh and Count Wily...

[Police Girl]

What the hell are those yellow balls on the bottom of Megaman's Shoe?

[Dr. Wily II]

I'm guessing it helps with his running...
And sliding...
And roller-blading...

[Mirby]

What the heck is this? I can't seem to stop laughing...

[marshmallow man]

Gotta love this vintage stuff.

[Splash]

OMG !What with Quickman's Gadget,from which he shooting his bumers,and Bumerang on his head?

[Flok]

Bubble Man looks so different from the rest...other than weeping Wood Man 

[Quickman]

OMG !What with Quickman's Gadget,from which he shooting his bumers,and Bumerang on his head?

It's spelled "boomerang."  And my guess is artistic liscense gone mad, mad, mad.

Woodman's face sends him spiralling right into the Uncanny Valley.  So much for sleep tonight/this morning...

[Splash]

Yeah!MY brother....well...boomerangs...but Ma Body n Soul is not from UsA
