Disk Boy 08

Disk Boy 08 (ディスクボーイ８) is a Reploid model that is famous in the 21XX fighting sport Snapper Disk (スナッパーディスク). Maverick Disk Boy 08s appear as enemies in Mega Man X2 and Mega Man Xtreme. They primarily appear on Morph Moth's and Wheel Gator's stage, but they are also on Agile's stage as well.

They mainly defend with a shield, and may sometimes jump to evade shots. However, unlike Sniper Joes and Hoganmers from previous games, if their shield is hit by a charged shot, if will flip up into the air for a while, rendering them defenseless until it returns. Their jumps can also be used to the player's advantage, as a right timed shot can hit their legs while they fall. They only form of attack is, as their name implies, throwing a spiked discus at the player, opening their defenses while doing so.

The Crystal Hunter is their main weakness, but the Strike Chain also destroys them in one hit. In addition, when used on the ground, the fire trail left by the Speed Burner is also able to pass underneath their defenses and easily kill them.
