We’re in the eight month, and in its ninth day, and that means it’s time for The Revenge of 1989! It’s time for some new pixel art, including a couple of sprites in the style of Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari (1989) (later localized as River City Ransom)!
Custom Sprites – New:
– Bonk/PC Genjin: Bonk (and his gallery) debuts and gets two sprites
– Ninja Gaiden: Irene Lew fans have it good today, she gets THREE new sprites, replacing all those 2014 sprites and even that action-y Capcom edit.
– Mega Man: Returning Sniper Joe from Mega Man 2, and of course I’ve got the regular Sniper Joe palette version, too.
– Marvel Comics: a sprite of Storm in her Pryde of the X-Men outfit. A different version of this pose was in her Sprite Showcase.
– sprite style: Kunio-kun/River City Ransom: Golden Axe’s Tyris Flare and Revenge of Shinobi’s Joe Musashi
Custom Sprites – updated:
– Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Modified the sprites of the 4 turtles with their weapons on their belts, including putting the ties on the belt.
Mini-logos: Hudson gallery gets a PC Genjin logo.
GFX Generators: The new custom sprites and mini-logos were added to the appropriate Fight-scale generator and 8-bit Fake Screenshot generators. Also, the Marvel vs Capcom ending (in the Fight-scale and MvC1 generators): simple overlay styles for Golden Axe (arcade), River City Ransom, and TMNT arcade added.
There will be a ToyBoss section update in the last half of August, and I’ve got a lot of plastic to catch up on and roster photos to update there. There may even be an extra surprise or two. Here’s a few quick pics of some of my favorite toy newness: the Jada Toys SDCC Neo Metall 6-pack and the Marvel Legends Psylocke-Thanos two-pack!
