LOL! yeah, X stressed himself out too much and so he always keeps his helmet on to hide the fact that he's going bald.

I enjoyed Command Mission but I was really hoping for a lot more character development. I thought they might even show a little bit of X and Zero's personal lives. What do they do when they're not killing "mavericks"? It would be funny to see Zero going out on a date, and X at home shining his arm cannon or whatever he does.

LoL! Gee, maybe X could learn something from Sigma - if you're going bald, be proud of it!

X would probably be offended by learning something like that from Sigma.

Also, about the debate with Mega Man having black or brown hair... it was only 8 bits, they didn't have a whole lot to work with. Well, I say look at the concept art and official artwork for such characters.

As for X, I'd have to say that his hair could be optional. During the times of peace between each Maverick Uprising, he could have hair, and it could be brown, or black, or whatever. But when a Maverick Uprising begins, he'd have it swapped for like an extra layer of armor. After all, if you damage X's head enough he'd probably stop moving, and it'd be best to have a bit of extra protection there. Sensitive equipment. It's the same reason us guys wear cups.

As for Zero's hair... well, he's the Legendary Bishie Bot. I won't elaborate further.

But the other characters? They'd have hair so that humans would be more comfortable with them. I sure as hell wouldn't be comfortable if like an office receptionist looked like, oh, I dunno, Neon Tiger? Or Magma Dragoon?

And about Vile's face, I remember reading something about Vile once having human features, but had them removed in order to have more room to install weapon systems. So who knows, maybe he used to have a face.

But, I think the whole deal with Rock's hair color or Vile's body is getting off-topic... so yeah.

Haha, I think the roles would be reversed... X is a real ladies man.

"MZ: Mr. Inafune, what was the one thing you wanted to change most in your story, starting with Maverick Hunter?
KI: Well, I really wanted to see something new...

MZ: Yes, Mr. Inafune, -
KI: Call me RockMan [laughs]. No, really [laughs]. I'M SERIOUS!![laughs]

MZ: Okay, RockMan [laughs]-
KI: Shutup.

MZ: ...
KI: Well, interview me!

MZ: What is it that you wanted to see that was new?
KI: I, RockMan [laughs] - OMG SHUTUP! - wanted to show the players what X's hair looked like. But, for my own peace of mind, we cut it from the North American version.

MZ: ....thank you, RockMan. [laughs] *leaves*
KI: *unintelligible shouting, some hints of bad language*"
