Guts Tank

"He ripped off my design again?! To make that?!"

- Guts Man after seeing the Guts Tank

Guts Tank (ガッツタンク), also known as Guts-Dozer, is the boss from the third Wily Castle stage in Mega Man 2. It is a large tank based on Guts Man's design, that resembles an enlargened version of Guts Man's torso with spiked shoulders and caterpillar tracks instead of legs. It releases projectiles from its mouth, and Mets exit from the opening on its chest. Mega Man can stand on its treads to reach its head, the only part of its body that receives damage. It is weak to Quick Boomerang.

Other media
Guts Tank appears in the Mega Man comic by Archie Comics and in the book Worlds of Power. In the former, Guts Man, when he saw it, was angered that Wily would create it using his design (and implying that this was not the first time Wily "ripped off" Guts Man's design). He, Oil Man and Time Man battled and destroyed it while Mega Man and Bomb Man continued ahead.

Trivia

 * The katakana on its body reads "GASU", which can translate into the English word "gas". This most likely refers to the type of gasoline the Guts Tank runs on, given it appears to be on a tank (container) of some kind, possibly liquefied petroleum gas (ＬＰガス, LPGas).
 * Despite the fact that Guts Man is not shiny in the Wily Wars remake of the original game, the Guts Tank uses many shades of yellow, making it overly shiny.
