Torch Man (or Torchman) is a Robot Master who appeared in Mega Man 3: The Robots are Revolting. He is one of the robots who goes berserk and rebels against the humans.

Torch Man is a red robot based on a welding torch. His Stage Select portrait bears a striking resemblance to Magnet Man, although he lacks the magnet atop his head along with gray eyes; his in-game sprite appears to have a bright blue visor shielding his eyes to protect them from the high heats of his Torch Arm. His body is based on Magnet Man, although with all the detail stripped from it and his arms and legs being changed to simple tubes. His special weapon is Torch Arm, a burning ball of fire he fires from his arm cannon.

In the Games

Mega Man 3

Boss sprite from Mega Man 3: The Robots Are Revolting.

In Mega Man 3: The Robots are Revolting, Torch Man is one of the main bosses that can be selected from the start, and the 1st in reading order. His stage is, curiously, a sewer with water and moss adorning the stage, along with suburban houses above his stage.

Torch Man is fought at the end of the stage in a waterlogged room. During his fight he will jump on Mega Man, trying to hurt him and when he reaches a wall, he stops to fire his Torch Arm, which travels in a straight line.

Torch Man is weak to the Water Shooter, which deals 8 damage to him, and has minor weaknesses to the Blade Launcher.
