Colored version. See the B&W version for the backstory! And here are Dr Wily's scribblings!

"Project DWN - 065 - Stapler Man
Version 1.0

-Description: Rapid-fire assault robot. Designed for medium-range combat with good agility and medium-to-light armor. Will have wall-scaling abilities (note to self - add hands maybe?) and ability to immobilise foes.

-Weaponry:

[A] Armed with rapid-fire 'staplerguns' in both arms. Based on DWN-017's weapon (Needle Man) but with upgraded reloading mechanism. Staples have solid uranium core with iron coating. Coating is magnetised to allow small 'homing' towards metallic targets (like that pesky Mega Man...), see explanation. Stapels can be used in close range combat too.

[B] Secondary weapon inserted into head (note - install personality core chip into the chassis, not the head!) Explosive-tipped large staple bombs can be ejected with a powerful spring-launching mechanism. Staples can magnetically attach to other robots or simply burrow into the terrain, explosive mechanism activates on contact. See illustration!

-Comments after testing: Needs more reviewing... Too top-heavy due to the staple bombs (-lighten the explosive load?) and prone to falling over. Heavy hits to the head can result in the staples exploding. Rapidfire-staplers are prone to jamming as the staples get bent (add staple remover function or design a help bot?)

-Decision: Project shelved for later reviewing. Also, Magnet Man complained on me using his powers in another Robot Master! The nerve! (reprogram him again?)
