Wild Coil

Wild Coil (ワイルドコイル) is Spring Man's special weapon. It sends one spring forward, and one backward. It is one of the few weapons in Mega Man 7, other than the Mega Buster, that can be charged up. When charged, the springs jump higher and cause more damage. The player can also adjust their trajectory slightly by holding up or down when firing them. This weapon is Shade Man's primary weakness.

It also appears in Mega Man 9, where Mega Man is equipped with it in the scenes shown by Rush in the ending.
