Mega Man 9[]

Plug Man is one of the eight Robot Masters whose period of use had expired and was scheduled to be scrapped. Dr. Wily pretended to be concerned by offering to repair them, reprogramming the tricked robots to help him conquer the world.

Plug Man will jump around, trying to jump on Mega Man or Proto Man. At times, he will shoot Plug Balls at Mega Man that will run on the ceiling. Once he is under the ball, it will drop toward him.

His weakness is the Jewel Satellite, which will deflect all Plug Balls launched.

In the end credits, he is seen going shopping with Rush, having been rebuilt after the events of the game.

Trivia[]

  • Plug Man is called Plasma Man (プラズママン) and Plasman (プラズマン) in his concept arts. He had the appearance of a plasma globe, and his weapon would have been called "Plasma Ball." The name "Plasman" was also used in previous concept arts of characters from Mega Man 2 and 3, but none of them resembled Plug Man. Plasma Man also had his cannon placed on his opposite arm.
  • Plug Man is one of two Robot Masters in Mega Man 9 designed by Keiji Inafune, as confirmed on Inafune's Capcom-Unity Blog.
  • In Mega Man 10, the Appearing Block puzzle from Plug Man's stage appears in the Endless Attack mode.
  • His plug color in the artwork is black, but in battle it is purple due to color limitations.
  • His Plug Ball does the second-highest damage to Mega Man in the game, behind only Splash Woman's Laser Trident.
  • Plug Man's special weapon is similar to the Hothead enemy from the Super Mario series, as both can run around ceilings and damage the player. However, Hot Heads cannot drop from the ceiling/wall on their own, but Plug Man's Plug Ball is able to.
  • The credits cutscene showing him and Rush shopping shows Plug Man without his plug-like cannon, replacing it with a normal hand that carries a shopping bag.
