Changkey Maker

Hothead, known as Changkey Maker (チャンキーメーカー) in Japan, is a large fire-headed robot that was originally created to light bonfires. It takes Tackle Fires (Changkeys) from the head to throw at enemies. They first appeared in Mega Man 2, where there are only three of them in the dark room of Quick Man's stage. When Mega Man gets close to them, the room lights up, but it becomes dark again if they are destroyed.

Hotheads also appear in Fire Man's stage in Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge, Oil Man's stage in Mega Man Powered Up and Buster Rod. G's stage in Mega Man: The Wily Wars. If one of them throws a Tackle Fire on the oil in Mega Man Powered Up, the whole floor will be engulfed with fire.
