I don't know why it popped into my head, but I've been obsessed lately with making alts inspired by/blatantly copying from the bosses in the Mega Man games.  So far, I have (on Excelsior)

 

Guts Man - Inv/SS Tank

Elec Man - Elec/Elec Blaster

Metal.Man - Claws/SR Scrapper

 

I'll post pictures later.

 

Obviously, the 'elemental' bosses (Fire Man, Ice Man, etc.) are thematically easy.  I just need to play with the costumes more on them, and settle on an AT.  I don't want to go Element/Element Blaster for everyone, so I'm trying to mix it up a little.  Any really good AT suggestions for those obvious themes? 

 

Any powerset/AT suggestions for some of the less obvious bosses?  Like, Shadow Man from MM3.  I'm thinking Katana/Dark Scrapper or Ninja Blade/Dark Stalker.  What's a good secondary for Time/ for Flash Man?  Or Gravity/ for Gravity Man?  Any thoughts on what powersets to use for someone like Snake Man or Quick Man? 

 

As for costumes, any tips for some of the more out-there designs?  Ice Man is easy, but what about Heat Man's Zippo lighter design?  Or Snake Man?

Perhaps Time/Energy  for Flash Man?

 

Although I feel like Energy is going to be a common option, as it's the best way to mimic their busters imo. For those who use busters that is.

 

 

(BTW I think this is a really fun idea)

One of my first characters years ago was Flash Man.

He was an ill/rad controller I think, or maybe ill/kin.

 

Anyway, using Blind and Flash felt just right for him. Would definitely go with ill/time these days.

 

I also made a Toad Man, though I think that was a spines/dark scrapper and not a storm summoner, and a Pharaoh Man fire/fire blaster.

These days I might take a recolored Rad blast for Pharaoh Man, just

for Neutron Bomb kinda feeling like Pharaoh Shot. Rad/fire?

Toad Man would be a water/storm corruptor.

 

Good memories.
