| This page is about the original Napalm Man. For his NetNavi counterpart, see NapalmMan.EXE. |
Napalm Man (ナパームマン Napāmuman?) is a Robot Master created by Dr. Wily to protect his secret weapons factory, where he would spend his spare time collecting and searching for weapons as strong or stronger than his own.
Napalm Man is a weapons enthusiast equipped with an array of explosive weapons all over his body - he is equipped with Napalm Bomb launchers in his arms, he can fire missiles from his head and also launch six small homing missiles from his shoulders. He has treads on his feet and can increase his speed with a rocket on his back. Because he is generally considered to be a walking weapon, even his allies feel uncomfortable near him, so he doesn't have many friends.

Mega Man 5Edit
Napalm Man is one of the eight bosses. He attacks by shooting two Napalm Bombs from his arms and then jumping, which can be avoided by sliding to the opposite side, but the player should make sure there is enough space to the side Mega Man is, for if he gets cornered, it will become almost impossible to dodge his attacks. Napalm Man also attacks by shooting head missiles which can be avoided by just jumping over them. He is weak when he has jumped and when he finishes firing missiles. His weakness is the Crystal Eye, but it should be fired at a wall, to increase the chances of two orbs hitting him. It takes him out in minimally five attacks, but more if two orbs do not hit him in the same attacks, up to a max of ten attacks.
Mega Man IVEdit
Napalm Man is one of the four bosses fought in the Wily Station. He has the same attacks as he did in Mega Man 5, as well as the same weakness, but he has been added a secondary weakness: Pharaoh Shot. Crystal Eye defeats him in minimum four attacks if two crystal orbs hit him and more if that not happens, up to a max of seven attacks, while the Pharaoh Shot which defeats him in ten uncharged shots and four charged ones.
Mega Man (Game Gear)Edit
Napalm Man also inherits the same attacks in this game, but now he is weak to the effects of the Flash Stopper.
Mega Man: The Power Battle and Mega Man 2: The Power FightersEdit
- "Concentrate more on avoiding Napalm Man's attack. If you could short out Napalm Man's body, he'll become weak."
- —Dr. Light
In both games, Napalm Man uses his previous attacks and the homing missiles from his shoulders. He can also speed up using the treads on his feet and a small rocket on his back. He is weak to Gemini Laser in both games, due to its ability to short out the firing mechanisms of his weaponry.
Mega Man: Battle & ChaseEdit
Napalm Man uses the Patriot Bomber, a resistant tank-like vehicle able attack with bombs and other explosive weaponry. He wants to use the prize money to create a weapons museum, and if the player wins using him, he successfully builds and stocks the museum with the prize money, but no one visits it. After waiting for a while, one guest visits the museum, but says it's boring. Angered by the comment, Napalm Man accidentally blows up the museum with his own weapons.

Other mediaEdit
Added by RingManXMega Man (Ruby-Spears)Edit
Napalm Man has a brief cameo appearance in the opening of the Mega Man animated series, but never appeared in any episode. He was also seen in the show's pilot commercial firing all of his missiles. The commercial and the brief cameo in the cartoon intro was Napalm Man's only involvement in the series.
Mega Man: Upon a StarEdit
The Mega Man 5 bosses have short appearances fighting against Mega Man or helping Wily in the three episodes from the OVA.
Mega Man MegamixEdit
Napalm Man is a combat robot who is essentially a walking armory. Aside from numerous missiles, Napalm Man also has Napalm Bombs installed on his arms. Napalm, which is a mixture of fuel and thickening agents, is accompanied by several mini-bombs in each of Napalm Man's Napalm Bombs. Upon impact, the napalm and mini-bombs are scattered around the area and the resulting explosion, known as the Fire Storm, spreads intense fire over a wide area. To account for the powerful effects and huge range of the Fire Storm, the Napalm Bombs have a built-in time delay feature to give Napalm Man a chance to avoid damage from his own attack. The Fire Storm is more effectively used as a wide range trap than it is as a focused attack aimed at a specific target.
Napalm Man first appeared in the story "Holiday of Soldiers", where the eight Robot Masters from Mega Man 5 have a part-time job at an amusement park to earn money for Wily. He works at the box office.
In Mega Man Gigamix, he participates in the Battle & Chase competition.
Rockman Battle & ChaseEdit
Napalm Man is one of the racers. He captures Chill Penguin during the race, and Chill Penguin tries to escape by attacking him several times. Angry, Napalm Man throws him off his car, but he's rescued by Mega Man.
Other appearancesEdit
Napalm Man appeared in the manga Rockman 5 and Rockman 4Koma Dai Koushin.

TriviaEdit
- Although Napalm Man is purple in his official artwork, he is blue in Mega Man 5- both his mugshot and in-game sprites. In every other game he was featured in, (minus Mega Man 10) he was purple.
- Although his mugshot and artwork show a missile in the device on his head, all of his in-game sprites, even the more detailed ones found in Mega Man: The Power Battle and Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, show simply a red sphere in the place of the rocket's nose cone.
- Napalm Man's weakness, Crystal Eye, takes away three bars of his energy in Mega Man 5 while the other Robot Masters in Mega Man 5 suffer four bars of damage from their weaknesses.
- The Rockman 5 Japanese game commercial's music was a remix of Napalm Man's theme.
- It is believed that Napalm Man's stage is actually based off Vietnam. Considering the tiger robots, the jungle setting, the punji traps, and the fact napalm was a flammable liquid used in the Vietnam War, this is most likely true.
- There was a rumor that Mega Man 5 was never released in Vietnam, because the Vietnamese would have found Napalm Man offensive. Napalm bombs were a flammable weapon used by the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam war - so devastating that the American government banned their use due to human rights.
- The description given of Napalm Man in the Mega Man: Robot Master Field Guide mentions his weapons museum, as well as the fact that no one visited it, thus implying that he was the winner of Mega Man: Battle & Chase.
- Napalm Man dislikes metal detectors because his body is full of weapons and finding hidden weapons and dangerous devices is the purpose of metal detectors.
