Telly (テリー Terī) is a security robot with camera eyes from the original Mega Man series that first appeared in Mega Man 2. This robot resembles a can and appears from tubes, slowly spinning in the air in the direction of intruders.
Appearances[]
In Mega Man 2 they appear in Crash Man's stage, Heat Man's stage, and the first and fourth Wily Castle stages. They mostly appear near the platforms on tracks in the latter, where they can knock Mega Man off into the spikes. Using the Leaf Shield on the track platforms will keep Mega Man safe.
They appear in Crash Man's stage in Mega Man II and in an optional room from the second Wily Tower stage in Mega Man: The Wily Wars. In Mega Man Powered Up they were named Bobbles in the English version and only appeared in custom stages and in two challenges from the Challenge Mode.
Telly also appeared as an enemy in Street Fighter × All Capcom and as a decoration in Zombie Cafe.
