The not-quite-final cast of characters
Here’s a look at the cast of characters, featuring three that didn’t make the final game. The second character on the top row is Oil Man, who was cut from Mega Man but later made his (redesigned) debut in the 2006 PlayStation Portable game Mega Man Powered Up. The first character in the second row is Bubble Man, who ended up starring in 1988’s smash-hit Mega Man 2. And the second character in the bottom row is the glue-focused Bond Man, who was just plain cut from the game and has only appeared in comics since. But based on this illustration, I’m just gonna call them Duck Man (and yes, I do envision Jason Alexander as the voice).
And notably missing? Ice Man. In the final game his weapon inherited Bond Man’s planned ability to freeze enemy characters.
