History Characters / MegaManClassicRobotMastersPostNES

* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: It could be anything really, but the closest accents it sounds like are French, Italian, Japanese, or Russian.

* DubNameChange: His original Japanese name is "Pile Man".

* TransformingMecha: He can become a sort of three-pronged construction machine. When he uses the Power Gear, it becomes more like a [[ThisIsADrill giant drill]].
* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: If his English sound tracks are anything to go by, it might be Russian.

* CombiningMecha: A first for the Robot Masters, Impact Man is comprised of 3 pile-driver robots who are named the Impact Brothers, respectively called Kui-ichiro, Kui-jiro, and Kui-saburo. Once he uses the Power Gear, he can combine with 6 more pile-drivers to become a giant drilling machine.

* EyesDoNotBelongThere: A mild example, his arms, when separated, have eyes, although at least they close when they come together in their main Impact Man form.

* SuperPersistentPredator: The three pile-driver robots attack Mega Man separately throughout parts of the stage, only coming together to fight him in the boss room.
* TransformingMecha: He can become a sort of three-pronged construction machine. When he uses the Power Gear, it becomes more like a giant drill.

A Robot Master made of hundreds of springs and is capable of jumping high.

* OneBulletAtATime: Oddly for a Robot Master, he won't produce more springs if there is already one spring on screen.
* OneHitKill: Can be instantly killed by a well timed Noise Crush before the fight even begins.
* RocketPunch: A spring powered one, actually. One of his attack has him leap up high and fire out his arms down at high speed towards Mega Man, retracting them back to do it again.

A clawed Robot Master tasked with clearing forests to help build secret bases for Dr. Wily.

* AnimeHair: It is shown.

* Continuity Cameo: The Weapons Archive in Mega Man 10 displays his sprite when using Slash Claw.
* {{Expy}}: Of Pluto in the Game Boy ''V,'' but also Vega from ''Street Fighter.''
* MixAndMatchCritters: His giant mane and claws are an artifact of how his body is based, and partially made from, Pluto's parts. However, Wily changed him to be dinosaur-themed, possibly to help take over Dinosaurland, his level. The end result is that he posesses both feline and dinosaur traits.

A vampire robot made for a horror amusement park, whom Dr. Wily stole and reprogrammed. Orignially, he was supposed to use a hypnosis beam to help Dr. Wily gain followers. However, after the equipment instead created [[MakeMeWannaShout sonic booms]], Dr. Wily felt that that was good enough and gave him more thematic powers and mannerisms.

* ChargedAttack: Collect-type. His increases his Noise Crush's power by sending out Noise Crush Waves and bouncing them back onto him, which through magic physics shenanigans somehow causes constructive interference.

* ClassicalMovieVampire: Was built with all of the classic trappings: Hates garlic, accent, loves tomato juice, acts wealthy, prone to maniacal laughter.
* Continuity Cameo: Mega Man 8's animated intro features him as Mega Man 7's representative in the montage of Mega Man against the previous games' Robot Masters.
* ElementalAbsorption: Absorbs any sonic-based attack...which means that if you make the mistake of shooting him with a Noise Crush when you face him in the rematch, he'll just fire it back at you!

* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: A Robot Vampire.
* TakenForGranite: For whatever reason, Shade Man has a EyeBeam-like attack what turns Mega Man into stone if it hits him.

A robot Dr. Wily made out of his favorite old car. His ability to transform from car to robot makes him useful for reconnaisance.

* ElementalAbsorption: Hit Turbo Man with the Thunder Bolt and he becomes supercharged, rendering himself invincible for a while and using his charging attack constantly.
* PlayingWithFire: His Scorch Wheel.
* RammingAlwaysWorks: Works so well it actually hurts Mega Man ''twice''. Through contact, and smashing him into the wall.
* TransformingMecha: He transforms into a CoolCar.

Freeze Man was originally built as a prototype robot which used non-polluting energy before being modified for combat by Dr. Wily. He can split the normal temperature in the ambient into hot and cold, using the former as his energy source and the latter to attack with his Freeze Cracker - a snowflake-like projectile which splits on contact. Freeze Man is a perfectionist and likes to make cool poses in his spare time. He has great respect for Ice Man. Assisted Wily in breaking him out of prison.

A Robot Master designed to collect the material Dr. Wily needs for his armies by raiding power plans and factories. After Dr. Wily went to jail, he assisted in the breakout. With a massive pair of electromagnets, he can collect debris to use as a weapon.

* ExtraOreDinary: Made mostly of metal.
* FrankensteinsMonster: Is essentially one. Only made up of robot parts rather than human ones.

* MagnetismManipulation: One of his attacks is to use electromagnetism to compress a ball of metal junk to use as an obstacle.

A robot originally created to guard a fireworks-creating chemical plant in Edo City, with similarly themed weaponry. He took over the very plant he protected when Dr. Wily modified his personality. Regardless, he loves doing what he does: blowing up stuff.

* MixAndMatch: Burst Man has bubble bombs at his disposal, just like Venus.

A middle-eastern style Djinn-like robot, with the power to control weather.

* BrilliantButLazy: He could be a lot more powerful if he wanted, but it's so easy to just strike people with lightning bolts from where it's safe.

* GeoEffects: He can't produce his own electricity- he has to draw it from the surrounding storm, although since he is the one controlling the storm, the effect is the same anyway.
* PowerFloats: He is the first Robot Master who is capable of floating and also has no legs.
* ImmuneToFlinching: He is the ''only'' Robot Master in the arcade games that does not flinch at all. He doesn't even react when he dies.
* ShockAndAwe: His Thunder Bolt attack. Notably, he can't produce electricity by himself, and has to draw it from clouds.

* DetachmentCombat: Since he's consisting of liquid metal.

* ManaDrain: His Grab Buster will steal Mega Man's P-Chips, E-Tanks, and weapon energy. If you're exceptionally unlucky, he may even steal E-Tanks or S-Tanks...

* BubbleGun: His Bubble Bomb, which can trap and immobilize enemies. [[GameplayAndstorySegregation Not that it can do that ingame...]]

* {{Irony}}: A fish-man who doesn't like fishing.
* TremorTrampoline: Can do this.

A clean-energy producing robot. When Dr. Wily went to jail, Freeze Man was the one to break him out. Has great respect for Ice Man.

* AsideGlance: Just try to hit him with Freeze Cracker.
* AnIcePerson: Ice-type Robot Master.

* GeoEffects: Most of the danger of his fight comes less from him and more from the environment he fights in. He takes advantage of the slickness of the floor he fights on to conduct his Freeze Cracker along the ground, and he uses the melted icy ceiling of his arena to produce icicles.
* BringIt: Does this gesture to Mega Man at the start of a fight. If Mega Man doesn't move at the start of the fight, he'll continue to do so.
* Continuity Cameo: Appears in Mega Man 8's intro alongside other previous Robot Masters.
* FeedItWithFire: Using his own weapon against him will heal him, [[AsideGlance followed by him looking at you.]]

* {{Samurai}}: His appearance is basically an icy samurai.
* PungeonMaster: In supplementary materials, he enjoys making a good ice pun.
* WeatherControlMachine: In a manner completely unlike Cloud Man, however. He was originally created to kick Conservation of Energy a new one, with his ability to split the temperature of an area into hot and cold areas, and absorbing the hot energy as fuel, turning both areas cold.

* {{Expy}}: Of Bomb Man in terms of personality.

* MadBomber: Even before Dr. Wily changed him, he enjoyed explosions in a very casual way.
* MakingASplash: Associated with water.

* StealthPun: Pile Driver is also known as the certain wrestling move.

* PungeonMaster: Just about everything that comes out of their mouths relates to their chosen element.

-->''Perhaps you will be a challenge. Fall... to the Fist of Flame!''

* DubNameChange: His original Japanese name is "Pile Man"

** Also, it's very easy to imagine what kind of '''impact''' his name would ''really mean''...

* LargeHam: Oh ''yes''. Mostly when attacking Mega Man.

-->''Perhaps you will be the challenge. Fall... to the Fists of Flame!''

** In terms of weaponry, his Pile Driver is this of [[VideoGame/MegaManX2 Speed Burner]].

* {{Expy}}: Aside from the previously mentioned Guts Man and Concrete Man, he can be considered this to [[VideoGame/MightyNo9 Seismic]], being bulky robots with an orange and yellow color scheme that are associated with construction.

->'''Voiced by''': ''???''

* HuskyRusskie: Seems to have this sort of accent.

* DeadlyUpgrade: This bunch of Robot Masters gets one with the implementation of Double Gear System into their bodies.
** However, it was necessary ''even for Mega Man himself'' to match their powers. Thus, Dr. Light installs Double Gear into him too.

* {{Expy}}: Looks like a smaller [[HumongousMecha (and bigger)]] version of [[VideoGame/MegaMan5 Stone Man]]. Also has a similar body construction with [[VideoGame/MegaManAndBass Cold Man]].

* FlashStep: He can zap across the arena during combat, though only once between attacks. He can zap several times before striking from above when Double Gear is active, and his attacks are too fast for mere jogging to dodge.

* StickyBomb: His Chain Blast can have several bombs adhere to a target before blowing them up. Mega Man takes this weapon for himself; but his case, the bombs are timed.

* BareFistedMonk: Primarily fights physically, although he does use spikes generated from his body to trip up Mega Man.

* EvilCounterpart: As a strong robot, he is this to Guts Man and Concrete Man. Also doubles as an {{Expy}} of both these Robot Masters (in design, at least).

* UnfortunateNames: ''Pile Driver'' (as in certain position during the intercourse.)

** In terms of weaponry, Blast Man's Chain Blast is similar to ''[[VideoGame/MegaManAndBass Remote Mine]]''.

* {{Expy}}: Is one of Guts Man and Concrete Man, at least in design.

* NamesTheSame: Shares his name with a villainous Net Navi from ''[[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork Mega Man Battle Network 6]],'' though their abilities are very different.

* NamesTheSame: Shares his name with the aforementioned robot master from ''Mega Man 3 Dos,'' as well as Torch Man from the English dub of Mega Man: NT Warrior.

* CanonImmigrant: Unlike other Robot Masters, Blast Man's ''[[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork Battle Network]]'' counterpart was created before him.

* CanonImmigrant: Like in Blast Man's case, his ''[[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork NetNavi]]'' counterpart was created first (albeit in this case, it was a [[DubNameChange dub rename]] of an [[VideoGame/MegaMan1 already existing Robot Master's]] [=NetNavi=]).
