I…
I totally just squee'd.
I love the transformation sequence of the busters… and the glowing helmet ridge!
But I do wish they would have maybe based his proportions a little more on, say, the more recent stock art or the comics.
Y'know, where he actually has a neck.

They were sticking with the more classic NES design, which I think fits better with how his animations actually play out.
The jumping pose, the hurt pose, how he slides. It's all very reminiscent of the NES animations. I think using a different concept for him wouldn't "fit" quite as well as the original does.
Either way, it looks awesome. His attacks are awesome. I can't wait to play as him when this game comes out.

There have been quite a few announced characters since I created this thread, but I stopped posting after the Megaman announcement. Because it's fucking Megaman. Shit. What do you want from me? ... Anyway, to catch everyone up to speed: I'll keep updating this thread as new characters continue to be released over at The Dojo.

"NEW" CHALLENGERS Zero Suit Samus No longer part of the original Samus design, ZSS returns as a standalone fighter. Sheik Sheik has been a staple of Smash Brothers since the beginning, but with the new moveset for Princess Zelda, Sheik has been transformed into a standalone fighter. It's about time. Charizard Who needs Squirtle and Venasaur when you're a fire-breathing dragon? NEW CHALLENGER Greninja
