Springtron

Springtron is a playable fighter in ARMS. He became playable in the Version 4.1.0 update, though he was in the game as an unplayable boss since Version 3.2.0.

Appearance
Springtron was modeled after Spring Man, and as such looks quite similar to him. He is made of grey metal, has glowing blue eyes with black sclera, spring-like ARMS modeled after Spring Man's, and metal "hair" which is bent to resemble Spring Man's. He wears a mask similar to that of a human fighter, and a mouthpiece not shared by Spring Man. His outfit is identical to Spring Man's, except in his signature black and red color scheme. Just like Spring Man, his chestplate prominently features his logo, which is modeled after a T instead of an S.

Backstory
According to one of Biff's messages when fighting Mechanica during the Grand Prix, Springtron may have been built using blueprints stolen from Mechanica during a failed attempt at discovering her weakness.

Abilities
Similar to Spring Man, Springtron is able to deflect incoming attacks with a small shockwave by charging after a dash or jump, and releasing the button before he is fully charged.

After a full charge, he rises from the ground and emits a huge shockwave that disables any extending arms within its range. During his descent, he also has a smaller, lingering "bubble" around him with the same effect. After this, his arms will stay constantly charged and his dash distance and speed will be boosted greatly. This effect lasts for approximately 9 seconds, or until he is knocked down.

In exchange for these benefits, Springtron lacks Spring Man's permanent charge at 25% health, and his speed both on the air and the ground is lower due to him being made of heavy metal.
