Fuck was Wily thinking? "Oh, I'll build a robot out of a material that's less durable than the ones robots are normally made from! That's sure to stop Mega Man!"

Personally, I prefer "Top-man" and "Bubble-man".

Ironically, Wood Man is actually one of the ball-bustingly toughest ones when he's emulated by Doc in 3 and the Archive in 10.

Wood actually has a few advantages over metal (or at least it did at the time the game was made).

For one, it can be quite strong and flexible, but still lightweight. Bamboo is like this in particular.

I always thought Wood Man was made of metal, but just looked like a log.

Maybe I was wrong though.

I like to dream that it was a design and name thing that was thematic rather than him making Woodman out of real wood. Anything to make the stupid go away.

Makes for a funny Bob And George strip though.

Admittedly, he wasn't as phoned-in as Metalman, but still.

You started this topic, and you DIDN'T ask for my input? For shame.

According to the website this is Wily's favorite robot. The use of Woodman is that when shot with bullets, they'd embed into him as opposed to going inside and bouncing around or breaking something. Woodman is also cheap to repair as he is, made completely of wood. Oh, and the Wood shield? Yeah, those are titanium leaves.

Titanium leaves sound scary.

Woodman being made of actual wood, however, not so much.

Wood Man has the second-most Unfortunate Name, next to Hard Man.

"Woodman is also cheap to repair as he is, made completely of wood."

...he has wood circuit boards?

The circuits themselves are grape vines. The grapes are fermented, that's the real reason he's Wily's favorite. It's also why he's shaped like a wine barrel.

I like Quickman and Shadowman the best, anyway.

You only like Shadow Man because you can associate it with me. And Quickman is just terrible.
