Metall is an enemy from the original Mega Man. It is the first of the "Met" (or Metall, or Metool, or Mettaur, or Hard Hat, or... really, a lot of English names) series of robots, and notably lacks feet, and therefore can't move. This iteration reappeared in Mega Man 9 as the functionally and (save for a shine on its helmet) physically identical Metall β; as such, this article covers both variants.
Metall was first made available in the devkit for the original Make a Good Mega Man Level contest, where it appeared in the entries City War, Chroma Key, Napalm Forest and Caves, and NEON GRAVITY, as well as the Wily stages Be the Bigger Person and Flashback Database. In Make a Good Mega Man Level Remastered, Metalls aren't present in the redesigned Be the Bigger Person, but have been added to the redesigned Hall of Fame.
It returned in Make a Good Mega Man Level 2, where it appeared in ten entries, and is one of Dennis's forms in Launch Man & Shuttle Man. It also appears in the Wily stages Classic Castle and Reality Core, the Tier X level Deep Thoughts, and the Pit of Pits sublevels "Chroma Key?", "da ba dee da ba di", "MEG4KMAN", "Mega Man a - Area 1", "Mega Man a - Area 3", "Spiky Meltdown?", and "To the top". The game also includes a Metall costume, albeit one that resembles the later Metall variants more than the original. It also appears in the Make a Good Mega Man Level 3 Judge Application Levels Coptar Man and Gate 303.
Following the release of the Megamix Engine (which now included Metall β), Metall appeared in the Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero levels Explosive Freefall and Springy Scaffolding. It returned in Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level as both a costume and an enemy, though only the entry Darkwing City used it in the latter role.
Contents
Behavior
Metall hides inside an impermeable helmet, only emerging to shoot a triple shot at Mega Man when he gets close. There is a small delay between it opening and it firing, giving Mega Man ample time to destroy it before it can get its attack off. Alternatively, a few weapons such as the Black Hole Bomb are able to bypass the helmet's protection. Though functionally the same, Metall β's triple shot uses different, more generic shot graphics compared to the original's triple shot.
In Make a Good Mega Man Level, the number of shots a Metall could fire was customizable via creation code, which was utilized by Under Construction to have Metalls that only shoot one projectile straight ahead. Make a Good Mega Man Level Remastered preserves this behaviour for all Metalls in the level.

Notes
- The original Make a Good Mega Man Level devkit refers to Metall as "Met Beta", after the variant from Mega Man 9, though it uses its original Mega Man sprite.
