Megaman X Hiya Toys 1/12 Falcon Armor X

Hiyatoys is moving fast with the Megaman X series. After announcing releases for X and Zero, the third entry in their Megaman X action figure lineup is none other than X in Falcon Armor! Falcon Armor is undoubtedly one of X’s most popular designs, and Hiyatoys has delivered a superb rendition. Scheduled for Q1 2027, the figure will be sold for $66 USD.

What makes Hiyatoys’ Falcon Armor particularly special is that it is based on the Megaman X6 version and comes with the Z-Saber. Many recent figures of X’s Falcon Armor are based on the X5 design, but Hiyatoys took a different approach, showing that they truly understand the IP they are working with and certainly deserve attention for it.

Falcon Armor itself holds a unique place in the Megaman X series because apart from its sleek design, it is the armor that granted X the greatest freedom of movement. With its additional wings, X can fly long distances, avoid hazards, and even deal minor damage to enemies on collision thanks to the flight barrier. It’s a shame that X6 nerfed this ability, portraying the armor as battle-damaged, but visually it remains one of the most iconic armors in X’s arsenal.

I’ve always had a personal attachment to Falcon Armor, ever since owning Bandai’s early 2000s toy rendition. It left a lasting impression on me, and it may even become a subject for a future post in my Vintage Toys series.
