Tundra Man

"You want to dance? Feel freeze!"

- Tundra Man

Tundra Man (ツンドラマン Tsundora Man) is a Robot Master who appears in Mega Man 11. He was originally created as a surveillance robot designed to monitor environment changes in some of Earth's coldest regions. He led a lonely life, though, and after watching an ice skating championship on TV, he was inspired to quit his job and become a professional figure skater. He was later stolen and outfitted with a Speed Gear by Dr. Wily, along with some other modifications, so he could be better suited for combat, after which he took over a museum.

His Special Weapon, Tundra Storm, allows Mega Man to generate a column of icy cold air that can destroy enemies directly above and below him.

Appearance
Tundra Man is a tall, slender Robot Master. Most of his body is covered in bluish-purple armor, parts of which have ice crystals embedded in them. He also has ice skate blades on his feet and a long ponytail made of ice crystals.

Personality
Being an ice skating robot, Tundra Man is very flashy and likes to show off his moves; he constantly dances even while he's fighting. Like most of the other Robot Masters in Mega Man 11, Tundra Man also enjoys making puns based off of his elemental powers.

Trivia

 * The background of Tundra Man's boss room is very similar to Freeze Man's, since both feature a T-Rex skeleton in the background.
 * Tundra Man is the third Robot Master whose battling style is themed after a sport (figure skating in this case), the other two being Blizzard Man and Strike Man.
 * He's also the second one of this group to be ice-themed, as well as the seventh Robot Master in the series overall to be ice-themed.
 * Tundra Man is one of the very few Robot Masters in the series whose artwork extends outside of their mugshot, the others being Quick Man, Break Man, Galaxy Man, Splash Woman, and Sheep Man.
 * Tundra Man's flashy and slightly effeminite personality is similar to Launch Octopus's personality in Maverick Hunter X.
 * Similar to Ice Man's weakness to Thunder Beam from the first Mega Man game, Tundra Man's weakness to Scramble Thunder is a reference to the minerals contained within ice that are able to conduct electricity.
 * This makes Tundra Man the fourth ice-themed boss in the franchise to be weak to an electric weapon, preceded by Ice Man, Cold Man, and Avalanche Yeti.
