Astro Zombiegs are robotic zombies that appear as enemies in Shade Man's stage in Mega Man 7. They emerge from coffins and mindlessly lurch toward Mega Man, impeding his progress. They are weak, however, and have no attacks other than shambling toward enemies in order to swarm and overwhelm them. With each shot a Zombieg takes, part of its body breaks off. Repeated buster shots will suffice to dismantle a Zombieg completely.
Trivia[]
- The name "Astro Zombieg" is a reference to Capcom's classic arcade game, Ghosts 'n' Goblins, which features similar, though non-robotic, zombie-type enemies.
- "Astro Zombieg" may also be a reference to the 1968 B-movie The Astro Zombies directed by Ted Mikels.
