This article is about the Robot Master Drill Man. For information on his NetNavi counterpart, see DrillMan.EXE.

Drill Man (ドリルマン Doriruman?) is a Robot Master originally created by Dr. Cossack to dig in construction sites. When Dr. Wily forced Dr. Cossack to work for him, Drill Man was converted into a combat robot to fight against Mega Man in Mega Man 4. Like Crash Man and Needle Man, Drill Man has no hands. Instead, he has two powerful, all purpose drills made for grinding through solid rock and dirt, which he incorporates into his attacking strategy. His Special Weapon, the Drill Bomb, is a drill missile launched from his arms to pierce dense objects and explode.

Video game appearancesEdit

Mega Man 4Edit

Drill Man is one of the eight bosses. He will start the fight by burrowing his way into the ground, chasing Mega Man and drilling under him after five seconds of being underground. The player should hold their fire when Drill Man is burrowing, as he is invincible during that time. The player must move from side to side of the screen so he misses the attack and is far enough for the player to shoot him. On the surface, he attacks by jumping where Mega Man is standing (which can be avoided by getting out of the way, best done by sliding), and by firing his Drill Bombs, which deflect all of Mega Man's attacks and can damage him if he is not careful enough. The player must avoid the Drill Bombs by simply jumping over them. Drill Man's weakness is the Dive Missile, which inflict three units of damage against him, which will home in on him when he jumps, but not when he is underground. They can also be deflected by his Drill Bombs and by his burrowing move.

Mega Man IIIEdit

Drill Man in one of the four bosses fought in the Wily Castle. His strategy is similar to Mega Man 4.

Drill Man appeared in the episodes "The Big Shake", "Showdown At Red Gulch" and "Master of Disaster" from the Mega Man animated series. The only difference between his appearance in the show and his game counterpart is the increased size of his arms. He also had an action figure.

Drill Man is voiced by Crystaleen O'Bray.

Mega Man MegamixEdit

Drill Man is a construction site worker robot that has drills built onto his head and the ends of his arms, which grants him greater stability while drilling underground. When faced with a solid rockbed, Drill Man will drill a hole and insert one of his Drill Bombs into the hole. By focusing the explosion on one point in this way, Drill Man is able to efficiently break through any obstruction. The timing of the explosion is controlled by a remote signal emitted from Drill Man himself. When Drill Man was modified for combat, both his external armor and the strength of his bombs were enhanced.

Drill Man first appeared in the story "The Grim Reaper of Resurrection", which happens after the events from Mega Man 4. Drill Man was captured by Skull Man and reprogrammed by Dr. Wily to fight against Mega Man and Dr. Cossack's remaining robots. He is defeated by Dive Man and later repaired by Bright Man.

Other appearancesEdit

Drill Man also appeared in the manga Rockman 4 and Rockman 4Koma Dai Koushin.

TriviaEdit

  • Ground Man was originally called Drill Man by his designer, Iwamoto Yoshihiro, but his name was changed because there was already a Drill Man.
  • Drill Man's weakness, Dive Missile, deals 3 damage in Mega Man 4, unlike all the other Robot Masters, with exception of Pharaoh Man, whose weaknesses do 4 bars of damage to them, Pharaoh Man's weakness doing none.
