Frost Walrus, known as Frost Kibatodos (フロスト・キバトドス) in Japan, is a Maverick from the X era, appearing as one of the main bosses in Mega Man X4. He is an ice-themed Reploid based on a walrus (or sea lion in Japan), who attacks with icicles and his giant size. He is a member of Repliforce who participates in their coup d'état.
In the Games
Mega Man X4
Frost Walrus debuted in Mega Man X4 as one of the eight Mavericks on the Stage Select screen. He serves as the boss of the Snow Base stage. The game's Japanese manual states he is a troublesome member of Repliforce who is borderline Maverick, and goes on a rampage in polar regions as part of the coup.[1]
Frost Walrus's attacks are slow, but have wide coverage across the arena. Defeating Frost Walrus grants Frost Tower to X and Hyoretsuzan to Zero. His weakness is the Rising Fire or Ryuenjin from Magma Dragoon, which melts his icicles and resets his pattern. A boss attack rematch with Frost Walrus later occurs in Final Weapon 3.

| Mega Man X Legacy Collection | A loose cannon infamous for causing trouble within Repliforce. Walrus was well on his way to being declared a Maverick when General instead put him to use as a soldier. He believes that being a soldier means smashing everything in sight, so he has welcomed the coup with open arms. |
| Mega Man X DiVE | With the alias "Rumbler of the Far North", he is a member of the Repliforce Army of the Repliforce. He was convicted for his violent behavior and was deemed a Maverick. He was save by General before his execution and oined the Repliforce as a soldier, and was also the commander of the Snow Base.
