- "I'll 'ave yer guts for that! No one interrupts a member of der great Paulung-Tang!"
- ―Muscle Juggler, Make a Good Mega Man Level 3
Muscle Juggler is a boss from the unlicensed game Rocman X (alternatively known as Thunder Blast Man). This juggling robot is one of the few members of the Paulung-Tang, a villainous syndicate from the aforementioned game.
Muscle Juggler appears in Make a Good Mega Man Level 3, as a Tier Boss, with an updated design and moveset from his original game. Muscle Juggler is able to speak, as opposed to his silent demeanor in the original game. It later transpired he left the Paulung-Tang after getting into an argument with another member.

Game Appearances
Rocman X/Thunder Blast Man
Muscle Juggler is one of the bosses fought by the titular hero. His stage resides in a fortress. In battle, Muscle Juggler will only juggle a single fire bomb before throwing it at the player. Upon the fire bomb hitting the floor, it will create a small flame pillar. Muscle Juggler will dash to the other side of the arena and repeat this pattern.
Make a Good Mega Man Level 3
Muscle Juggler appears as the boss of Tier 3, the Sewers, but cannot be challenged without first collecting 6 Energy Elements. He is found in a secluded section of the sewers, practicing his juggling in an attempt to get into the record books, only to lose count by Mega Man's arrival. Saddened, then angered, by this turn of events, the Paulung-Tang member prepares to fight Mega Man.
As opposed to his appearance in Rocman X, Muscle Juggler is now able to juggle three objects at a time, instead of just one. There are three different objects he can throw, all of which have different effects:
- A fire bomb, which will create a flame pillar that briefly chases Mega Man upon hitting the floor.
- A spiked ball, which will bounce a few times until it flashes red, after which it will explode into a pair of fireballs that fly in opposite directions.
- A Neo Metall, which will behave as it regularly would upon landing.
After throwing his ammunition, Muscle Juggler will cross to the other side of the arena in one of two ways before juggling again:
- He will dash to the other side of the arena, throwing two fire bombs behind him as he does so.
- He will jump to the other side, throwing three spiked balls above him that will immediately detonate upon hitting the floor, launching two fireballs on the left and right sides. He will only use this attack every third time crossing the room.
