Mash (マッシュ Masshu) is a giant clown robot that appears in the Robot Museum mid-stage in Mega Man 7, giving time for Dr. Wily to escape with the stolen Guts Man. It hops about trying to squash Mega Man, but Mega Man can hit its head to damage it and knock it off. If its head gets knocked off, Mash will hop erratically until its body can regain the head. This came from a mistake in its design, even when Mash's design was supposed to be Dr. Wily's best. [1]
Mash is weak to the Danger Wrap, but it is very difficult to hit unless its head has been knocked off its body. The Thunder Bolt is its secondary weakness, and can be aimed with much greater effectiveness as it can knock Mash's head off.
Other media
Mash appeared in the Rockman 7 manga in a role similar to the game.
In the Rockman & Forte manga, King created an improved Mash with the data he stole from Dr. Wily and sent it to attack Wily's base. Though its head could no longer be knocked off, Mega Man still managed to destroy it using a charged shot.
Mash has a cameo appearance in Mega Man Gigamix vol. 1 as a small gift that Proto Man gives to Roll.
