Another picture showed Bass, a trophy for the Wii U version.

“When I first saw this, I was really surprised by the quality of this trophy and Treble’s presence,” he said.

“Even though this will only appear as a trophy, this was made from the ground up. Designers really are amazing.”

He also shared a picture of Zero, and said that there are, in addition, trophies of Roll and Proto Man.

Another recent picture showed the Trophy Shop for the Wii U version.
