Mega Man 3 - Top Man Stage

Background

Top Man (タップマン Tappuman) is a Robot Master created by Dr. Light and Dr. Wily to work on other planets in search for the Energy Elements needed to build Gamma, but he was reprogrammed and used for combat by Dr. Wily in Mega Man 3. Top Man is equipped with an auto balance system within his body, allowing him to spin rapidly much like a top, which he uses as an attack called the Top Spin to injure enemies, and as a defensive mechanism because the high rotational speeds make projectiles deflect off of him. However, he can't spin for too long because he gets dizzy, and maintaining such high speeds could damage his internal components. Top Man also attacks by tossing rapidly spinning tops from his head or shooting tops from his arm cannon.

Codex Statistics

Tier: At most High 6-A, Higher with Rage Power

Durability: At most Multi-Continent level (Can take hits from Mega Man)

Striking Strength: At most Multi-Continent Class (Potency), Higher with Rage Power

Lifting Strength: Class G (The Robot Masters are normally made to be on par or superior to Mega Man, who was able to hold up Dr. Wily's fortress at end of Mega Man 5, with Robot Masters such as Guts Man being superior in strength and Robot Masters such as Splash Woman having comparable feats such as lifting entire ships from the ocean)

Travel Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Is comparable to Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo, who can travel around the earth destroying evil energy around this timeframe), Faster Than Light with Teleporters (Robot Masters teleporters should scale to Mega Man and Proto Man’s teleportation, where they are able to travel planets and solar systems in a short time frame^[1], reaching this levels of speed)

Attack Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Can keep up with Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo in combat who uses attacks that involve his travel speed)

Reaction Speed: Massively Hypersonic Can keep up with Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo in combat who uses attacks that involve his travel speed)

Range: Standard Melee, Hundreds of Meters with attacks, Interplanetary with Teleporters (All robot masters naturally display teleportation through teleporters interplanetary distances^[6])

Intelligence: Gifted Intelligence (Can keep up with Mega Man in combat)

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Self-Sustenance (Respiratory Self-Sustenance, Nutritional Self-Sustenance, & Restful Self-Sustenance; All Robot Masters can breathe in space just fine, with an entire game revolving around traveling through space^[7] and as robots do not require food^[8], sleep or sustenance), Inorganic Physiology (Non-Living Objects; Robot Masters are highly developed robots in the fields of robotics. Robot Masters have a "consciousness" though it is different from the standard humans consciousness as it's at the level of a "cognitive circuit" embedded inside each one of them^[9]), Rage Power (When Robot Masters are damaged to about half their health, they become invulnerable for a few seconds and perform more powerful attacks), Limited Invulnerability & Forcefield Creation (When robots in Mega Man are hit, they have periods of invulnerability where they cannot take damage for a few seconds. This is shown to exist in verse as there are chips that amplify this ability such as Double Barrier and Extend), Absorption (Robot Masters^[10]^[11]^[12] are built in with^[13] usages of solar energy to charge their bodies and use their weapons essentially limitlessly^[14]), pseudo-Teleportation, Transformation, Light Manipulation, Intangibility (Phasing/Elemental), Transmutation (Transformative Arsenal) & Battlefield Removal (Application Based; All robot masters naturally display teleportation through teleporters interplanetary distances^[15], they do this through transforming into a beam of light, they can use this in the middle of combat to turn intangible and phase through attacks. They can also transform others into a beam of light and send them to other places with the teleporter, essentially removing them from the battlefield), Consciousness Transferal (Robot Masters can transfer their consciousness into other bodies and machines, with characters like Doc Robots having the Robot Masters programs and data directly installed with them, essentially acting as a more powerful body^[16]^[17]), Divine Protection (After defeating ViA■ and destroying the Robot Destroy Program within him, The Player was able to fully correct the Deep Log in its entirety. However, Via says The Player's story isnt over and RiCO repeats this and says that there will be future program errors in the Deep Log for them to correct and it would be insecure for her alone to manage it alone. Therefore to solve this problem that can happen in the future, RiCO will summon The Player in order to correct any irregular data in the Deep Log as she did in the start of the game), Supernatural Resilience (Robot Masters can survive wounds such as being cut in half, with ones such as Proto Man calling it merely "just a scratch", being able to come back just fine after teleporting away to be repaired), Immortality (Immortal Metaphysical Aspect; All robots "true existences" exist in their data, thus as long as their data is stored they can be remade or come back if their data is specifically "SAVED". With data further being explored through here), Regeneration (Mid through Cartoon Physics; Can regenerate from being crushed by Mad Grinder. Should scale to all the other Robot Masters who all regenerate after being flattened in Mega Man Powered Up. Mid-Godly as their Data Forms; In Rockman & Forte: Mirai Kara no Chōsensha, Rockman Shadow's data comes out of his deceased body and regenerates a new body at the very end post-credits of the game. In Mega Man Xtreme, Sigma was trying to reproduce the past data of several mavericks in the mother computer to bring havoc to the world's peace and the only way the past data of previously defeated Mavericks from X1 and X2 could be stopped is if X goes inside as his data form. Inside the Mother Computer, X defeats Vile's data form along with the data forms of a bunch of mavericks he has previously defeated. However, despite defeating their data form, their data is still are able to come back for the rematches at the end of the game along with Vile being back in the hard mode's post game story. Despite destroying Vile's data twice, he was still able to come back and better then ever in Mega Man X8. In Mega Man ZX, Omega's soul data along with flashes of the past battle in Zero 3 are trapped in area O and even after defeat, he can come back without limit even after obtaining Model OX which contains his soul data. With data further being explored through here), Resurrection (Robots that are fought and defeated are able to be brought back as long as they still have their data, with this also extending to reploids being able to come back for rematches. With data further being explored through here), Non-Standard Interaction (Conceptual Interaction & Abstract Interaction; Can directly interact with, harm, and destroy a robots data, which all robots "true existences" rely on their data, thus as long as their data is stored they can be remade or come back if their data is specifically "SAVED". All data resides in the deep log of each game's data and information of the Mega Man Franchise and many other Capcom franchises, with it being stated that data makes up the characters' personality, memories are data pieces that can be used to materialize hunter programs and also have the feelings of the characters, their data is even what determines their own canonicity in reality, with all characters being considered data alongside all universes being made of data. With data further being explored through here).

Creation and Homing Attack (Top Man can create small tops to attack with and they also homing attack), Attack Reflection and Invulnerability (Top Man can reflect projectiles while spinning and is even immune to his weaknesses such as Hard Knuckle while spinning).

Resistance to Electricity Manipulation (Takes virtually no damage from the spark shot)

Equipment

None Notable

Notable Techniques

Top Spin: Top Spin is Top Man's Special Weapon in the Mega Man series. It is a system that integrates offense and defense by rotating one's body at high speed.

Other

Standard Tactics: Top Man creates tops to attack his opponents with homing attacks and rams into opponents while spinning

Weaknesses: Hard Knuckle. Spinning too much can make him dizzy. If his data is corrupted, he will be incapable of coming back.

Note: Robot Masters/Reploids should scale to their teleportation as they have to react to the landing in order to land properly or do certain things like Cut Man did here. Otherwise, they will clumsily fall like Roll does here due to her clumsiness as she was not naturally prepared for adventures like Mega Man, and surprised Dr. Light and Dr. Wily with her natural power as well as Pallette keeping her balance here.

Trivia

Top Man's quote from his Mega Man & Bass CD Data is a reference to the 80's hit song "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" by Dead or Alive.
Top Man was the only Robot Master from Mega Man 3 who appeared in Captain N: The Game Master.
Top Man, along with Hard Man, Crash Man, and Wood Man, was one of four Robot Masters to not appear in the Tiger Electronics games based on Mega Man 2 and Mega Man 3.
Top Man's stage theme in Rockman Complete Works and Mega Man Anniversary Collection with Navi Mode enabled is a remix of the Opening Stage theme from Mega Man 7.

↑ PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.
Dr. Wily has reformed, and he and Dr. Right have joined forces, working together to develop a giant peace-keeping robot named “GAMMA”.
“GAMMA”…… It was the life-long dream of Dr. Right, a giant robot to protect and serve world peace.
Their research almost complete, all that remained was to combine 8 energy elements that were scattered about the uncharted planets, and bestow them to “GAMMA”…
–However, each planet met with an unexpected incident. The robots who were mining the energy elements suddenly began going berserk!! Upon learning of this from Dr. Right, “ROCKMAN” immediately set out on a path for the uncharted planets–a new battle was about to begin!!
↑ Q. What kind of foods does Rockman like to eat?
A. Well… Actually, Rockman’s body is powered by “Solar Energy.” Therefore, he doesn’t really eat, but there are some things that are okay for his consumption… Around the lab, he enjoys drinking “Energy Juice.” As responsibly as he behaves, he’s still a kid after all.
↑ Q. The shots that the Rockbuster fires from the hand, what are those exactly?
A. The Rockbuster on the arm fires something called a “Solar Bullet”, essentially emitting a compressed form of solar energy that’s very powerful.
↑ Weapon: Transforming Rockbuster, fires a solar bullet
↑ Q. Do robots like those made by Dr. Wily or Dr. Cossack have self-awareness, and can they talk? And do they run on solar energy like Rockman does?
A. I take it you’d like to know if Wily and Cossack’s robots possess “sentience”? Naturally, they each have a “consciousness”, although the level of every “cognitive circuit” embedded inside each one of them varies, producing as many different “personality” types as found in people… Just like you or I, they can speak, and have emotional responses like shyness, or anger, just as we do.
Regarding their energy systems, many of them do utilize “solar energy” in some way.
