"Frost Man! Destroy! You!"
—Frost Man, Mega Man & Bass database

Frost Man (フロストマン Furosutoman) is a combat Robot Master from Mega Man 8 who was created by Dr. Wily predominantly using several leftover parts from Clown Man. Frost Man is one of the largest Robot Masters and possesses powerful strength, which he is very proud of, and has the ability to punch the ground to generate fast surges of freezing cold energy using his Special Weapon, the Ice Wave. Alternatively, he can also attack by dropping heavy blocks of ice down onto his opponents.

Despite being very proud of both his large stature and strength, Frost Man is not too bright when it comes to strategy, in addition to the fact that his heavy weight also makes him slow and sluggish when it comes to battle and due to his less-than-ideal method of construction, suffers from chilblains and poor oil circulation while also being vulnerable to explosives. Frost Man appears to have something of a sweet tooth; his ultimate goal is to turn Mega Man into a kakigōri (or in the English version, an ice pop) and eat him. [Citation needed] He is also shown to have a liking for sorbet and rock candy.
