Count Bomb (カウントボム Kaunto Bomu) is a bomb originally created to be used in construction sites that countdowns and blows up when the button on top of it is pressed. They can be used as platforms before blowing up, and they can walk in Mega Man 8 and Mega Man: Powered Up (these tend to be red in color). The Count Bomb made its first appearance in Mega Man III at Shadow Man's, Spark Man's, and Drill Man's stages and then appeared again in Mega Man 6 at Blizzard Man's stage.
